THE WEEK IN CHESS 877 29th August 2011 by Mark Crowther

1) Introduction

My thanks to Alexander Prokhorov, Roland Wimmer, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Sinisa Joksic, Emmanuel Variniac, Harun Taner, Steve Giddins, Jack Peters, Manfred Mussnig, Randall Hough, Sean Hewitt, Sinisa Joksic and everyone else who helped with the issue.

The FIDE World Cup has got off to a good start with the first two rounds and some interesting chess. Already two players over 2700 have been eliminated Wang Yue and Peter Leko. Most of the favourites have progressed already, Kamsky and Morozevich are amongst 34 players coming back on Tuesday for the Rapid and Blitz games. The live video and commentary have been excellent so far and add very much to the enjoyment of the tournament. Things should be easier to follow when the field slims down after a couple of rounds. It is still a big summer of chess festivals so plenty of events elsewhere although things should start to slacken off quite fast now, which is quite a relief for me.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

2) FIDE World Cup 2011

Sam Shankland accepted a draw in an overwhelmingly winning position against Peter Leko to eliminate the Hungarian in the surprise of the round. Wang Yue was also eliminated, by Alexandr Fier after blowing a winning advantage that would have seen him level the match. Kamsky and Morozevich go to playoffs but most of the favourites went through without the need for them.

3) French Championship 2011

The French Chess Championship took place 14th-27th August 2011. There was a delay to the broadcast of the moves on the internet to help prevent the players cheating. Laurent Fressinet and Maxime Vachier-Lagrave shared the lead, half a point clear of the field on 6.5/10 going into Thursday's amazing final round. Vachier held Bacrot to finish on 7/11. Both Romain Edouard and Fressinet could have caught him but were both thumped in their games against Jean-Pierre Le Roux and Christian Bauer respectively. Anatoly Vaisser won the B-Group and Sophie Milliet the women's group,

Note that the organisers are delaying the broadcast of moves by 30 minutes each round to help prevent possible computer cheating.

Chinese League 2011

The Chinese League started 12th April. This week saw rounds 10-12: 10th-12th July. This year has been a bit of a mess after last year's clear coverage. They change the dates from those shown in chess results so it just turned up this week, the live coverage has broken down for the second successive batch of matches (round 12) and the archive Chinese League Games hasn't been updated (maybe there is an archive elsewhere). Allegedly the next rounds are 13-15 in Qingdao on 26th-28th October, but who knows, at this stage they seem to be making things up as they go along.
