ChessBase 17 - Mega package - Edition 2024
It is the program of choice for anyone who loves the game and wants to know more about it. Start your personal success story with ChessBase and enjoy the game even more.
This week there are several interesting tournaments at the same time. Personally, I'm still recovering from the Grenke Open, which is a very intense tournament with two games a day.
The cool thing is that while playing your own game, it was possible to follow the games from the Grenke Chess Classic on big screens in the playing hall. Magnus Carlsen is playing phenomenal chess again and Vishy Anand is also doing very well.
Meanwhile, in China, at the 3rd Du Te Cup, Harikrisha was on fire with four consecutive wins. Tonight our main game will be Giri vs Harikrishna, in which two players with similar styles met in the second round. (Replay the full game below.) Their Round 7 game today was a draw.
The live show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium accounts.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with White?
