Ding Liren The one decisive game of round 10 finished surprisingly quickly and had a massive effect on the fight to become Magnus Carlsen’s next challenger. Ian Nepomniachtchi needed only 31 moves to defeat Kirill Alekseenko after the latter misplayed the opening. With four rounds to go, Nepo is now a full point ahead of the trio made up by Fabiano Caruana, Anish Giri and Maxime Vachier-Lagrave. Your key to fresh ideas, precise analyses and targeted training!

€19.95 Predictions, predictions [Note that Jon Speelman also looks at the content of the article in video format, here embedded at the end of the article.] With the Candidates Tournament resuming the day after this comes out, all eyes are turning to Yekaterinburg. So I thought, perhaps somewhat foolishly, that I’d add my voice to the hubbub of predictions, thus preparing to get egg all over my face or, as you might say, becoming “Ovi-ready”. More than a year after the fi...

What is a squeeze? When you take control of a game, deprive your opponent of counterplay and slowly squeeze the life out of your opponent. The motto of the squeeze could be: “To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.” from The Art of War, Sun Tzu, Chinese general, born c. 500 BC This DVD will help you to recognise when a squeeze is possible and how to execute it.

Some of these opening proposals are solid and safe, but you also find interesting, double-edged gambits. Robert Ris recently presented such a gambit: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 d6 6. Nd5!?.    But can White really play this way – moving the knight twice before completing his development and neglecting to defend e4? At any rate, some strong players, including Jorden van Foreest and Alexey Shirov, have recently made use of this idea in various online tournaments and achi...

€29.90 A classic A hundred years ago, from March 15 to April 28, the 1921 World Chess Championship match between Lasker and Capablanca was played in Havana, Cuba. Conversations about organizing a match began in 1911, but the players could not agree on the terms. In the end, Capablanca won the match by a score of 9-5 (4 wins, 0 losses, 10 draws). Today, Daniel shows the tenth game of this match, a fine win by Capablanca. In this game Capablanca played what has rightly been hai...

Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty said authorities planned to file more charges. He did not elaborate. Alissa did not enter a plea, which will come later in the judicial process. He has been jailed without bail. The young man entered court in a wheelchair, presumably because of a gunshot wound to the leg that he suffered Monday in a gunbattle with police. He appeared alert and attentive, moving his knees from side to side, his eyes darting back and forth from his lawyers to the...
