London Chess Classic proves better than Moscow — Chess at the top is not easy. After a tough chess tournament in Moscow, St. Louis resident Hikaru Nakamura headed to London (after stopping in New York City for a few days to see his family) to play in the London Chess Classic. The tournament in London has a great line-up that features the four highest-rated chess players in the world, the four highest-rated players in England and Nakamura! Normally, round-robin (all-play-all) formats have an even number of players, but having nine players is advantageous for the players and organizers. Each round, one player sits out, and that player goes to the commentary room and helps the live broadcast analyze the games. The chess players also ...

Giving thanks for competition — When I have a chess student who is doing poorly (which I'd like to think rarely happens), I remind them of an important lesson: strong competition breeds success. Most people want to get better -- at everything. They think when they do, they will simply start winning and winning and winning (just ask Charlie Sheen). But let's look at the facts. The better you get and the higher you rise through the ranks of any professional sport, including chess, the more difficult the competition gets. Take Tim Tebow, for instance. This guy was a winning quarterback all through high school and college, winning the Heisman Trophy during his sophomore year at the University of Florida. He was as dominant a player as there was at ...

Chess: Carlsen's sublime plan — Magnus Carlsen took the lead at the London Chess Classic with understated but effective play: here's how he did it. The world chess no. 1 Magnus Carlsen took an early lead in the London Chess Classic by winning this game. He has sacrificed two pawns for the attack, but there is no obvious breakthrough. How did he make progress? RB: It took me a little while to realise just how solid White's position is. It's not apparent at first glance – those isolated pawns on a2 and c3, the hanging bishop on c4 and the slightly weakened king position. But take a closer look and you'll see that Black has no invasion points. White has everything protected and has a great position. Which is exactly the problem, because ...

Vishy Anand: I found Bobby Fischer surprisingly normal and calm — The world chess champion on analysing with the legendary American, being a new dad and his love of Monty Python. Q: How does it feel to be back for the London Chess Classic? It's excellent. I enjoy this tournament immensely. It's a great showcase for chess in Britain and it has the worthy aim of building chess in schools too. Q: So when enthusiastic kids ask how they can become chess masters, what do you tell them? Just keep playing often. Concepts fall into place only when you get them on the board. It's a bit like learning a language; it's nice to read a book, but only when you speak to someone does it all start to fall into place. Q: When you are preparing for major chess tournaments like London how many hours a day do you devote to getting ready? As much as it takes – up to 10 hours if needed – plus another two or three hours during the tournament. Q: And how do you prepare ...

8-Year-Old American Wins a World Championship — America has a new world champion, and he is only 8 years old. The new titleholder, Awonder Liang of Wisconsin, tied for first in the under-8 section of the World Youth Chess Championship in Brazil, which ended last weekend. He took the gold medal on tie-breakers. Awonder almost ran away from the field, winning his first seven games before drawing his eighth and then losing in the last round. He was not the only American to medal. In the under-10 section, Ruifeng Li of Texas took the silver, also on tie-breakers. And in the girls’ under-14 group, Sarah Chiang, another Texan, narrowly missed out on the bronze medal when she tied for third. But under the tie-breaker scoring system, she finished fourth. One of ...
