A Group Final Ranking after 7 Rounds

Kokeny Norbert took clear first with 6/7.

Well done!

Bodrogi Laszlo and Yip Michael were next with 5.5,7. I took 3rd on the tiebreak but Bodgrogi played some nice games which I saw first hand as I spent most the tournament on the next board or two over from him.

After the tournament Csatho Gabor asked me what I did to improve so much i n the last year. I had to answer(through an interpreter) truthfully that my play has been quite poor for 2-3 years now and I am working hard get back to the 2089 or something that I arrived with about 7 years ago.

It is not so easy to keep a 2000 elo rating in Budapest if you play all the little opens where anything can go wrong.

Nutcracker Classical 2015

“The Nutcracker Match of the Generations takes place in Moscow 20th to 25th December 2015. A team of “Kings” Boris Gelfand, Peter Leko, Evgeniy Najer, Alexander Morozevich plays a Scheveningen classical and rapid chess match against a team of Russian “Princes” Vladislav Artemiev, Ivan Bukavshin, Mikhail Antipov and Grigoriy Oparin.-TWIC”

Leko won a nice Semi-Slav as White

Leko-Bukavshin after 31..Qe7(diagram)

White should have played the crushing 32.Qg4! but instead Leko went for the prophylactic King shuffle 32.Kh2 and ground out a technical ending.

Najdorf 6.h3(B90)

Giri had an interesting novelty as early as move 9 in rd2 of the Qatar Masters.

Grandelius-Giri

9.f5(diagram)

Giri played 9..Bd7!?N the point is not immediately clear. The bishop supports ..b5 and after ..b4, the bishop later resurfaced after ..Bb5.

Later in the game after 25.Kb1(diagram)

Black got a big attack going after 25..a4

The Closed Spanish

The game Konguvel-Bok  shows how Black can generate chances for Black.

After 24.Rf1(diagram)

Black got kingside play with 24..Qh4

Sicilian Paulsen/Kan

The 7.Qf3 line is the big fashion now.

Ponomariov-Ly

White finally got the kingside attack going and broke through eventually.

Final Ranking Rd6

FM Brustkern Juergen lost his first game and won the next five to finish in clear first with 5/6.

I started ok but then fell down in the late going, My games were nothing special.

A small note. There were four enthusiastic Toth family players, two in each group.

I contributed a quick win thanks to a gift in an equal position.

MTK played the Blind Institute on this chilly Monday evening. We played a man down and I don’t the final match score.

Vojan-Yip Board 2

After 18.g4(diagram)

Black has an extra piece and one may be excused for wondering what the problem could possibly be.

I found the almost magical tactic of winning a pawn with 18..Bxf2?? when there a couple of ways to just keep the extra piece.

There is no real explanation.

Yip was just no good.

However, my opponent blundered a piece later to even the scales of Xmas justice and I won.

Ho Ho Ho

 

All MTK teams won today. I was promoted to board 1 at the last moment and contributed a draw for MTK IV in today’s action at the Hungarian Chess Federation site.

Even the Speed chocolate bar could not help me win the won position.

Board 1 Bolyai,I-Yip,M

After 22.Qh4(Diagram)

I won a pawn earlier due to a blunder but had to settle for a draw after a hard fight.

White has some potential counterplay based on the h7 weakness.

I found the exchange sacrifice 22..Rxd3!? but 22..Ne4! was much stronger.
