1) Introduction

My thanks to Olexandr Prohorov, Holger Lieske, Thomas Rondio, Paulo Rocha, Miguel E. Gomez Masjuan and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Magnus Carlsen won the Grand Chess Tour YourNextMove tournament in Leuven Belgium to go with his second place in Paris last week. Carlsen impressed in two sessions most of all, day two of the rapid and the first six rounds of the blitz. When he's in this form he looks streets ahead of his rivals. This is why they pay him the big money.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark
