NIC The Perfect Pirc-Modern


1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Olexandr Prohorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Jose Vilela, Miklos Orso, Jan Mazuch and everyone else who helped with this issue.

The Zuerich Chess Challenge has seen some hard fought yet not decisive chess. Boris Gelfand and Vladimir Kramnik are in their final event before the Candidates in mid-March. Fabiano Caruana has played the most interesting chess so far and it's a shame he won't be in the Candidates too. The Reykjavik and Cappelle la Grande Open are two of the better such events of the year and are well under way. Baden-Baden are running away with the Schachbundesliga. Anatoly Karpov made a rare appearance with a fairly uneventful draw.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

6) Moscow Governor's Cup 2013

The Moscow Governor's Cup was mix of Rapid and Blitz games. It's been a tricky proposition working with the games but I took the top qualifier and knockout section games and processed them (although I wasn't sure the the first was the qualifier for the second based on the results). Dmitry Mischuk beat Evgeni Dragomarezkij in the final. There were blitz games published but probably I won't include them.

26) 33rd TCh-IND 2013

The 33rd Indian Team Championships take place 21st to 26th February 2013. I have severe doubts the games in the mess that was the live coverage will be worth recovering. The early women's pairings were mixed in with the men's results and those I saw sometimes didn't agree with the pairings given in the results and so forth.
