  • This Week's ChessVideos Show: The IQP Against the French

    www.thechessmind.net | 14/10/2011 15:39:21 | Reads: 75
    There's a new book by GM Denis [sic] Yevseev called Fighting the French: A New Concept (Chess Stars 2011) I intend to (mini-) review. Think of this week's ChessVideos show as a small preview, as the "new concept" is displayed. Yevseev advocates a plan for White where he, rather unusually against the French, accepts an isolated d-pawn in return for attacking chances against the black king. It's...

    This is an instructive game. It’s good to teach kids about the Scotch Game and discovered checks as these can be used at the highest level. Plus it’s also a warning about doing chess for a living as one can end up spending a lot of time in places like Saratov in Russia, plus airports [...]

  • The Daily Update: Poikovsky and Saratov

    www.thechessmind.net | 13/10/2011 23:31:39 | Reads: 75
    The Karpov tournament in Poikovsky finished with some more short draws, but also a couple of wins, one of which was very important for the final standings. Etienne Bacrot defeated Zahar Efimenko - with Black, no less - and caught up with Sergey Karjakin to tie for first place. (I wonder if they used tiebreaks to separate them: maybe fewest moves per draw would be fitting for this event.) Both...
