THE WEEK IN CHESS 860 2nd May 2011 by Mark Crowther

1) Introduction

My thanks to John Saunders, Gujuan Tzu, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Alexander Prokhorov, Roland Wimmer, Mehrdad Pahlevanzadeh, Kristianus Liem, Frank Berry, John D Thornton, Rohan Waithe, Adolivio Capece, Jonathan Rowson, Sergio Fernandez, Lasse Thomasson, Emmanuel Variniac, Biro Sandor, Sinisa Joksic, Dave Clayton and everyone else who helped with the issue.

Another very busy week. Gata Kamsky captured the US Title in a convincing way, Anna Zatonskih, took the women's title for a fourth time but pretty unconvincingly, not that anyone else was that convincing either. The easter period produced another huge batch of chess but now we move to the FIDE Candidates, lousy format (the matches are way too short and three rounds of matches too many) but still a mouthwatering prospect. Levon Aronian is favourite but the short nature of the matches means that almost any qualifier is possible, there are no weak players in this event and it is clear that players such as Topalov and Kramnik have been keeping their powder dry with the specific goal of qualifying to play Anand, the only question being whether they are, after recent indifferent results, on their way down, or only motivated by the World Title. Thursday 5th May sees the first round.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

2) US Championship 2011

It took Gata Kamsky 19 years between titles last year but his 3rd title came quickly as he joined a select band of players to retain the US Chess Championships. This hadn't been done since Lev Alburt in 1984-5 and the only other players to do it are Sammy Reshevsky, Bobby Fischer and Walter Browne. The 2nd game was itself a damp squib as Kamsky, and indeed possibly both players, were pretty sure that white was in trouble in terms of winning chances after only 7 moves. Kamsky duly showed that white was perhaps the only player in danger in the position. Shankland and Krush finished 3rd in the men's and women's events respectively.

Anna Zatonskih won her fourth US Women's Championship title after a marathon effort that took in 19 games and a final Armageddon game where she took a huge time disadvantage in order to get the advantage of draw odds with black. That final game followed the pattern of much of the event, Zatonskih got very close to everything she needed, then granted all sorts of counter-play before her opponent Tatev Abrahamyan spurned the chances and allowed her opponent to triumph. I don't think any of the leading players in the women's event can be happy with the number of bad moves they played, these players are surely better than this but the tension seemed very high throughout.

18) 9th Red River Shootout

The 9th Annual Oklahoma-Texas Match was held again in April. It has been held the last few years at a casino 55 miles North of the Red River that divides Oklahoma and Texas. This location is equidistant between Oklahoma City / Tulsa in Oklahoma and the two major cities in Northern Texas - Ft Worth / Dallas. With this recent victory Texas now leads the series 7 wins to 2. Players enjoy competing on a team in a different format than the usual swiss system events. My thanks to IA Frank Berry for this report.

19) Dhamso International Open

The Dhamso International Open took place 21st-25th April 2011. Dinish K Sharma won with 8/9. I thought the Indian FIDE rating list entries were bad but I can't believe the entries in the Sri Lankan list correspond to what the players actually call themselves. A total mess. I wouldn't have covered this event if I'd realised how bad things were.

38) Some Corrections

Dubai Open, Balogh-Grigoryan Round 4. 28. Rxf6+ no 28. Nxf6+.

London Chess League Rowson-Dearing 28...Ne5 not 28...Nc5.

First Saturday April GM, I had D'Costa-Kargin (6) but didn't put it in TWIC.

29) Rating List

World Chess Champion Viswanathan Anand retains his lead over Magnus Carlsen and Levon Aronian as hardly any of the players in the top 10 played any games. Vugar Gashimov enters the top 10 in the world through some old Bundesliga results that have only just been submitted. The lack of top level games reflects the crunch in the finances at the top level and the fact that many are preparing for the World Chess Championship Candidates which start this week.

There was very little change at the top of the rating list due to the lack of elite chess in this period. The most important event was the Amber Rapidplay which obviously wasn't rated.

Events that were covered were the European Individual Championships and the Russian Teams. Perhaps most important however was that the whole year of the Bundesliga results for 2010-11 were submitted (even though on this day it turns out that contrary to all expections the season hadn't actually finished and there was a final relegation match to be played).

The financial troubles meant that even though many top 10 players have clubs they didn't actually play.

Gashimov moved into the top 10 due to his Bundesliga performance, Ponomariov also went above the former number 10 Alexander Grischuk (who had no games) through the Russian Team Championship performances.

Arkadij Naiditsch moved from 52 to 27, he lost points in Aix-les-Bains but his huge Bundesliga and recent Neckar Open ended up with him gaining 31.5 points.

Vladimir Potkin gained 29 points, mostly from winning in Aix-les-Bains.

Judit Polgar climbed 10 places as she returns to full time play. She obviously is still women's number one way ahead of Humpy Koneru, but it is young women's world champion Hou Yifan that looks more likely to have the long term chances to overtake her and she is also the top 14 junior of either sex.

A rating of 2648 was required to be in the top 100.
