Chess news: Bennett and King on chess: Short-Berg, Malmö 2009 -- Black is tied down to defence, but how can White, to play, make progress? RB We've been looking at zugzwang over the last few weeks so here I'm going to imagine it's Black to move. 1...Kg8 obviously leads to disaster after 2 Re8+ Rxe8 3 Qxe8+ Kh7 4 Qd7. 1...Bh8 would allow 2 Qh3, threatening Qd7, and is also catastrophic. Nor can the queen move: after 1...Qc8, for example, 2 c7 would lead to wholesale exchanges on e8 followed by promotion of the c-pawn. That leaves the rook. Is 1...Ra8 a viable waiting move? White is clearly better but I can't see how to continue and Black's position doesn't fall apart the way it should in a zugzwang ... Five-Way Tie at the New York International -- Five chess players tied for first in the New York International (June 19-23, 2009) ; Lev Milman made his third and final GM norm. GM Giorgi Kacheishvili beat IM Sam Shankland as black in the last round to catch him at 6.5/9 and (partially) derail Sam’s norm hopes. The early chess tournament leader, Filipino IM Oliver Barbosa, won his last game against Igor Sorkin to reach the magical 6.5 score and share $10,000, but ironically, failed to make a GM norm because he had not played enough non-U.S. chess players. Zybneil Hracek and Alex Stripunsky drew each other to join the leaders. IM Lev Milman made his third and final GM norm by beating Leonid Yudasin in ... World Federation Takes Notice of Young American Chess Players -- The United States is minting international masters and grandmasters. Last week, the World Chess Federation, the game’s governing body, officially anointed Robert Hess, a student at Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan, as a grandmaster, and it confirmed three other Americans, Daniel Ludwig, Rusudan Goletiani and Enkhbat Tegshsuren, as international masters. They will soon have company. At the New York International chess tournament, which ended on Tuesday, Samuel Shankland, an 18-year-old international master from California, dominated the chess event until the last round, when he lost to the grandmaster Giorgi Kacheishvili of the republic of Georgia. With that loss ... | |
