Budapest Open 2016 Rd1
The biggest chess event in Budapest started today.
I chatted briefly with Psaila Clarence(Malta) who is the organiser of the Malta Open.
Heyl,Thomas(GER)
Szabo,Pal, father of fast rising Szabo Marton Mihaly
Speakers at the opening ceremony
Bartuszek,Andras in red
I started with a rather questionable win.
After 36..Re2(Diagram)
The BN dominate the R and White has a big attack going.
I thought quite hard and managed not to see the big finish.

TWIC 1135 August 9-2016
This issue’s five featured games from TWIC 1135.
The weekly updates feature thousands of game and are available each week from TWIC.
Bogo-Indian 4.Bd2 Qe7(E11)
Shankland-Saric
After 22..Nf6(Diagram)
White used a modest buildup to reach a positionally crushing position.
After 22..Nf6
Queen’s Indian 4.g3 Bb7(E18)
Vitiugov-Liang
After 26..Rxc6(Diagram)
White started well, lost control but was handed the game after Black made a large positional concession after ..c6
After 26..Rxc6
King’s Indian Classical 9.b4(E97)
Fier-Sean
After 23..Qe8(Diagram)
White followed theory which included a piece for 2 pawns sacrifice. Black could not get anything going on the kingside and was playing without his queenside pieces.
After 23..Qe8
Sicilian Taimanov 6.g3(B47)
Predke-Zhigalko
After 35.Rb5(Diagram)
Black took some risks to get winning chances and managed to reach a complex unbalanced endgame.
After 35.Rb5
Sicilian Taimanov 7.Qf3(B48)
Balagh,Cs-Bellaiche,A
After 10..b5(Diagram)
White played the standard sacrifice 11.Nxb5
After 10..b5
Later after 19..Rhc8(Diagram)
White has a reached an innocuous looking unbalanced. Find a plan and suggest a move.
After 19..Rfc8
GM Balogh has co-written several useful training books as part of Chess Evolution.

Hosszú Katinka won the 400m IM gold in record time.
TWIC 1134-Open Games
I have been slowly adding Open Games to my repertoire but there is a ton of new literature to go through. GM Shaw is recommending the Scotch against 2..Nc6 in his new book, Playing 1.e4-Caro-Kann, 1..e5 and Minor Lines.
Playing 1.e4 by Shaw (2016)
There were some interesting games in TWIC 1134.
The Petroff Defence
5.Nc3 is still popular.
Wei Yi-Ma,Z
White came up with Bd3/Qe2 instead of Qd2 but got nothing from the opening.
After 19..Qc8(Diagram)
After 19..Qc8
White got a gift later as Black just blundered a piece to a simple tactic.
The Scotch-Mieses Attack
Sipila-Amin,B
Black held easily in the 8..Ba6 line and showed resourceful play in the equal endgame.
After 26..Re1(Diagram)
Material is equal but Black took over.
After 26.Re1
The Italian Game-Slow(c3/d3)
Black gets some additional defensive options by not committing to an early ..d6
Sambuev-Lesiege
After 21.h5(diagram)
Black held on in an action packed game.
After 21.h5
Berlin Defence 4.d3 Bc5(C65)
Howell-Adams,M
After 26.Rhf1(Diagram)
Black was resourceful on defence and won with a nice counterattack.
After 26.Rhf1
Spanish Opening-Breyer Variation(C95)
The Accelerated Breyer(11..c5 instead of 11..Bb7) is gaining some momentum. Black does not block the b-file and plays ..Rb8 to support b-file counterplay.
The Bologan Twins
After 11..Bb7
Sadzikowski-Ipatov
Ipatov played a model counterattacking game and finished with a ruthless kingside attack.
After 28.g3(Diagram)
After 28.g3
The Dutch Defence-Williams Variation (4..Rh7!?)
Time for a look at the Dutch Defence. Last tournament I gave this defence a try but did not really do much background work. Now it seems time to do some proper work as I have not done well against it as White in recent games.
The Bishop System 2.Bg5 against the Dutch Defence is one try to avoid big theory but can be met with the odd looking 4..Rh7!?
After 4..Rh7!?
Thematic Endgame
An interesting endgame arises that gave me some trouble to understand.
after 10..Kxf7(Diagram)
After 10..Kxf7
Black won a recent correspondence game but the initial Stockfish7 evaluation favours White, which makes the line hard to evaluate.
The Killer Dutch and the Williams Variation 4..Rh7
The Main Lines-White Repertoire
I would rather have a sideline against the Dutch rather than have to find a line against everything that Black can do like
- The Leningrad(7..Qe8)
- The Classical
- The Stonewall
- 7..Nc6 and 7..c6
etc
The Leningrad Dutch
TWIC 1134 August 2-2016
The latest TWIC instalment is now available.
Grunfeld Defence
Russian System 7..Na6
After 15.Rd2(Diagram)
A fairly typical position has been reached. Black followed with a typical idea.
After 15.Rd1
Later in the game
After 24.Qe1(Diagram)
Black had a big attack going and finished nicely.
After 24.Qe1
TWIC 1133 July 26-2016
Queen’s Indian Defence(E15)
White quickly got pressure on the kingside in a very topical line.
After 21..f6(Diagram)
What should White do about the attack on Ne5?
