1) Introduction

My thanks to Roland Wimmer, Olexandr Prohorov, Luiz Roberto Da Costa Jr, Bjorn Berg Johansen, John Saunders, Mitko Iliev, Tarjei J. Svensen and everyone else who helped with this issue.

Peter Svidler won the Russian Championships to earn his 7th title which is a new record. Svidler beat Ian Nepomniachtchi rather easily in a rapid playoff. In a busy week Levon Aronian won the Bilbao Final Masters half a point clear of Michael Adams who is also playing really well at the moment. Fabiano Caruana has just about secured victory in the Kings tournament in Bucharest with a couple of rounds to spare. The Bundesliga in Germany also started. Also interesting are the Chigorin Memorial and the Indonesian Open. Plenty of really high quality chess to look at.

Hope you enjoy this issue.

Mark

2) Russian Championship Super Final 2013

The 66th Russian Championship Super Final took place in Nizhny Novgorod 5th to 14th October 2013. Kramnik, Svidler, Karjakin, Andreikin, Nepomniachtchi, Vitiugov etc. Alongside was the 63rd Russian Women's Championship. Peter Svidler won the 2013 Russian Superfinal after beating Ian Nepomniachtchi 1.5-0.5 in a rapid tie-break. Svidler drew his final game and Nepomniachtchi was worse against Kramnik both needing a win to catch Svidler. Kramnik over-pressed and lost. This is Svidler 7th Russian Championship title 1994, 1995, 1997, 2003, 2008, 2011 and 2013. Rashid Nezhmetdinov won 5 Russian Championships, Mikhail Botvinnik 6 Soviet titles (which mostly replaced the title 1920-1991) [although now I see there is the Absolute Soviet Championships of 1941 which might bump his total to 7] and Mikhail Tal also 6 although some of those were shared. So Svidler now holds the record alone. Valentina Gunina won the women's title with 7/9 half a point clear of Alexandra Kosteniuk.
