THE WEEK IN CHESS 922 9th July 2012 by Mark Crowther

1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Alexander Prokhorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Adolivio Capece, Dave Clayton, Jack Peters, Gunnar Bjornsson, Jean-Michel Delfosse, Lennarth Eriksson, Niklas Sidmar, David Navara, Niklas Sidmar, Vlad Rekhson and everyone else who helped with the issue.

The Astana World Rapid and Blitz Championship has been very interesting so far. Magnus Carlsen (who will now play the Biel tournament starting on the 22nd July after being recruited at the last minute following the collapse of the Kings tournament) looked a certain winner of the rapid event after two days but, not for the first time, he had a sudden decline in his form. Not than the winner Sergey Karjakin's score was anything other than huge. The blitz tournament is being led by Alexander Grischuk. I'm not sure that 3 minutes plus 2 seconds per move is anyone's idea of a perfect blitz time control if you at least want to see some chess. Personally if you want a classic blitz shootout then 5 minutes and no increment would be better. If you want a lot better standard of blitz chess then 5 minutes plus 10 seconds per move is the one. 3 minutes plus 2 seconds per move is the worst of all worlds for me. Nevertheless I have pretty much no complaints about the coverage, video, a commentary in 2 languages and good gamescores and it has proved entertaining. I always get caught out, suddenly the summer season of professional and amateur chess is upon us. I've got a good selection of what I hope are the stronger tournaments.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

2) Astana World Rapid and Blitz 2012

The World Rapid and Blitz Championships take place in Astana. Rapid event 6th-8th July. Blitz 9th-10th July. The rapid event was mostly a battle between Sergey Karjakin the eventual winner and Magnus Carlsen. After two days it seemed Carlsen more or less had the title in the bag but losses on the final day combined with Karjakin's 4.5/5 score turned this around and indeed only a missed mate against Carlsen in the final round stopped him catching him for second place. Alexander Grischuk leads the Blitz tournament at the half way stage but Karjakin is half a point behind and Carlsen after a dodgy start isn't totally out of it.

4) 40th Annual World Open

The 40th Annual World Open took place in Philadelphia 2nd-8th July 2012. GMs Ivan Sokolov and Alex Shabalov finished at the top of the Open Section standings, both finishing with 7/9 after agreeing to a quick draw in the final round to secure a share of first. Both players could have been caught by GMs Wesley So and Yury Shulman or IM Marc Arnold who all started the final round half-point behind the leaders but none of those players managed a victory, leaving Sokolov and Shabolov alone at the top. An Armageddon play-off between the two GMs was held after the end of the tournament. Sokolov had the white pieces and 5 minutes while Shabalov had the black pieces, 3 minutes and draw odds (both players also had a 5 second delay). The game was won by Sokolov who becomes the 2012 World Open Champion.
