Fritz and all those who helped with this issue.
If there were doubts about Kramnik's abilities as a match player the
Braingames World Chess Championships look set to dispell them. After a
compelling week Kramnik has clearly imposed his own chess personality on the
match and to an extent dictated events. His choice of openings as black has
been especially interesting, he has been prepared to accept solid but passive
positions, not something you would instinctively play against Kasparov, and
made them work very well for him. Even after this match has finished I doubt
very much he will have many followers employing the Berlin Defence. His two
games with white has seen him win in game two and almost win in game four in
games very much in the style of Botvinnik. Kasparov has been slightly sluggish
in the first few games but when he's had to find ideas he has done. His opening
preparation hasn't come into play as much as he'd like so far but it is early
days. I would still place him favourite to win the match but if he experiences
another week like this then that opinion has to change. I will hopefully be in
London tomorrow to see game six, I'm looking forward to it.
Hope you enjoy this issue

The Braingames World Chess Championships started on Sunday 8th October
2000. The 16 game match which takes place on Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays between 8th October-4th November. Time control 40 moves in 2 hours,
20 moves in 1 hour, followed by 30 minutes + 10 seconds per move.
The Braingames World Chess Championships are starting to really warm up
now. Game two on Tuesday saw the best possible result for the match when
Vladimir Kramnik won with white against Kasparov's Gruenfeld defence. With
Kasparov having draw odds over the sixteen game match a win for him would have
made Kramnik's chances look very thin indeed. Kramnik played a variation of the
Gruenfeld Defence that had hitherto been thought to be bad and pressurised
Kasparov throughout the game. In time-trouble in a difficult position to defend
Kasparov cracked and Kramnik brought home the full point. Kramnik almost
extended his lead in game four against a new choice for Kasparov, the Queen's
Gambit Accepted. The game started quietly enough with the Queens being
exchanged after only a few moves. This was deceptive, once Kasparov played 25.
...Rc2 a very sharp struggle ensued with Kramnik achieving a winning position
(a piece up) after the first time-control. However Kasparov is not fond of
losing and after using 40 minutes thinking time he found a way of continuing
the game even though it was hard to see a decent defencive idea. In an
extremely simplified ending both players made errors with the final blunder
coming from Kramnik which allowed the draw. It should be pointed out that many
of these wins were quite a lot easier to see for journalists with the aid of
computers. Not only has Kramnik been pressing with white he's been very solid
with black. In game three he repeated the Berlin Defence to the Ruy Lopez and
again got a position which few other players would enjoy. After unwinding his
position he even started to think about pressing, however Kasparov found a
tremendous idea and the moves coming up to first time-control saw Kramnik
trying to stop running pawns. Kasparov may well have missed a chance in this
phase. After move 40 Kramnik found a way to trade down into a drawn rook and
pawn ending. In game five Kasparov changed tack and played the English Opening.
Kramnik chose a very rare and old line against this and achieved a solid but
passive position. Both players were clearly tired as a result of game four and
after only 24 moves the game was agreed drawn in a level position.

The Hungarian Chess Championships sponsored by Hungaropharma have been
taking place in Budapest. The knockout event has been in several stages.
Starting back in August with the early rounds the final stages with the
stronger players take place October 2nd-13th 2000. The format is knockout. Two
normal timerate games are played if the match was tied two rapidplay games
followed followed by a suddent death game if this proved indecisive. The
semi-finals saw Zoltan Almasi beat Zoltan Varga 1.5-0.5 and Zoltan Gyimesi go
through after playoff games against Alexander Chernin when there two normal
timerate games were drawn. The final was over four games. The first two games
were drawn then Zoltan Almasi won the 3rd game and drew the fourth to take the
title. My thanks to IM Gyula Feher, Laszlo Nagy and IM Miklos Orso.
Quarter Finals (October 6-7 2000)
Almasi, Zoltan - Kallai, Gabor 1/2 1/2 1-0 1/2
Horvath, Jozsef - Varga, Zoltan 1-0 0-1 1-0 0-1 0-1
Pinter, Jozsef - Gyimesi, Zoltan 1/2 1/2 1/2 1/2 0-1
Almasi, Istvan - Chernin, Alexander 1/2 1/2 0-1 0-1
Semi-Finals (October 8th-9th)
Almasi, Zoltan - Varga, Zoltan 1-0 1/2
Gyimesi, Zoltan - Chernin, Alexander 1/2 1/2
Gyimesi won the playoff
Final (October 10th-13th)
Almasi, Zoltan - Gyimesi, Zoltan 1/2 1/2 1-0 1/2
The Italian Chess Championships 2000 started October 9th in San
Vincent. At the last moment Michele Godena withdrew and was replaced by IM
Mario Lanzani. The game Lanzani-Arlandi will be decisive as Igor Efimov can't
win the title as he doesn't have an Italian passport. A draw is enough for
Arlandi to get the title. My thanks to Adolivio Capece for his help.
