The semi-Berlin Challenge
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

A great week of chess is just over. The interesting and enthralling match between #3 Vladimir Kramnik and #2 Levon Aronian finished with the result of 3.0-3.0. IT was an event that we could call The semi-Berlin Challenge instead of The Zurich Challenge: 3 games out of 6 were indeed played with the Berlin variation of the Ruy Lopez, and two with the QGD semi-Slav.

Let the fun begin!
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Here we are, the elite chess season is finally starting! After months of minor events, Saturday April the 21st Levon Aronian and Vladimir Kramnik start their so-much awaited match. Six games that, given the friendly nature of the match, promise to show fireworks and Bengala lights on the board

Ready to go?
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Are you ready? The great season is going to start. After months of minor tournaments - mostly opens in Europe - we are now approaching the season of elite events. As a luxurious hors doeuvre ICC relayed the top boards from the European Team Championship which, with all the GMs from the home country, plus all the players from the former republics and other nations, is nearly as impressive as an Olympiad. Some of the teams actually have rosters that average over 2700!

Keeping up with the Joneses!
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

After 4 rounds, English GM Gawain Jones - Verdenotte in ICC - was the sole leader of the European Individual Chess Championship, with 4/4. Gawain, playing black in the 4th round, managed to defeat GM Boris Savchenko from Russia - B-Savchenko in ICC, in a popular line of the Sicilian Dragon. The impressive rating performance for the young English talent at that point was 3317!

A dive into History
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

The picturesque small country called Bulgaria - which has existed for more than 13 centuries in Europe - is famous among chess fans mostly because it is the native land of the great champion Veselin Topalov. This year Bulgaria is going to be home of the European Individual Chess Championship, from March 19 to April 1. Click here for information.

Ruy Lopez in the Iceland
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

The Reykjavik Open is halfway through, and its proving to be an interesting tournament. Fabiano Caruana - Adaptation in ICC (currently #6 in the unofficial rating list), David Navara, Robert Hess - RLH2 in ICC, Gawain Jones - VerdeNotte in ICC, Ivan Cheparinov - Inch in ICC, Ivan Sokolov - VegaSicilia in ICC, and the reigning Women World Champion Hou Yifan - Fanny in ICC make this strong Open an intriguing event to follow. ICC is broadcasting the games, with many GMs and IMs commenting and kibitzing (Hikaru Nakamura - CapilanoBridge in ICC and Ronen Har-Zvi - Indiana-Jones in ICC - among others)!

The three Musketeers
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

FIDE has published the March Rating list. Three men lead the pack, in the super-exclusive elite group over 2800. Numero Uno Magnus Carlsen keeps his January rating, after a convincing performance at the Tata Steel, scoring a more than respectable +3.

Win with GM Boris!
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

In the first series of his new show, Learn how to Win with GM Boris!, GM Alterman illustrates the power of passed pawns. As the great Aron Nimzowitsch said: A passed pawn is a criminal which should be kept under lock and key. Mild measures, such as police surveillance, are not sufficient.

Waiting for the Big One
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

After the elite events that have kept us glued to the screen in the last few months - Tal Memorial, London and Tata Steel - its now Open season! We all are waiting for the crucial match that will take place in May, and will give us the new World Chess Champion. Here is info about it (http://www.chessclub.com/finger/WorldChamp12).

Caruana - MI:6
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

After two excellent results in Reggio Emilia and Wijk aan Zee, where he finished as runner-up, we all thought that the young American-Italian stud would have taken a deserved break, enjoying his new amazing position as No 10 in the top unofficial rating list. But the Fab Fabiano decided to go from the heaven of elite events to the muddy and slippery ground of the Open tournaments, as hes participating to the 11th Aeroflot Open, in a freezing Moscow.

Hou Wows!
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Reigning Womens World Champion Hou - who faced seven elite grandmasters rated 2700 or over - wowed the chess world with a performance that was pure Polgaresque in itself. As well as wins over chess legends Judit Polgar (the first time Polgar has lost to a woman since 1992 - to her eldest sister, Susan - when she was just 16) and Alexei ‘Fire on Board Shirov, she also beat Zoltan Almasi and Le Quang Liem, and drew with Adams and Mamedyarov for a tournament performance rating that went off the Richter scale for a woman at an astonishing 2872.

Shining from the Shadows
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Will this be the year when the world No.2, Levon Aronian, finally emerges from the shadows of Magnus Carlsen? The Armenian has often been overlooked with the rise of the Norwegian world No.1 - but hes more than made his mark by winning the first major of 2012 at the 74th Tata Steel Chess tournament, in Wijk aan Zee, the Netherlands.

Levon, Levon likes his money
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Its Levon Aronians tournament to lose! After beating the Dutch no1, Anish Giri, in round 10, the amenable Armenian World no.2 now has an impressive +5 score at the top on 7.5/10, a full point ahead of his nearest rival, Vassily Ivanchuk, who leapfrogged Magnus Carlsen in the standings after beating cellar-dweller David Navara.

Feel the Force
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

A tournament battle between the world nos 1 and 2 have always played a part of historic showdowns in the chess annals, and a modern-day classic is developing at Tata Steel 2012 in Wijk aan Zee, as Magnus Carlsen and Levon Aronian share the lead on 3/4 at the first rest day of the tournament.

Hello, Tata!
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

Supergrandmaster tournaments dont always deliver the excitement that the name implies, but the tiny hamlet of Wijk aan Zee on the Dutch north coast has always lived up to the billing - and this year the Tata Steel Chess Tournament will be no different than any of the others in the long and storied history of what has always been regarded as the first - and many would argue the most important - major of the year.

2012: Elo Again
» ‎ ICC Newsletters

When the chess rating system was established in 1971 by Professor Arpad Elo, it contained the names of 600 players. In the January 2012 list that heralds in the new year, the number has grown to over 83,000. Top of the heap on the new list is again Magnus Carlsen of Norway -- and hes been numero uno now since Jan.1 2010.
