With ChessBase Magazine #211 (January 2023) Karsten Mueller started his training series “Fundamental Endgame Knowledge”. This series is not about endgame finesse at grandmaster level, but about basic techniques that every ambitious club player should try to internalise. It is a pure video course, each contribution consists of an introductory video and two or three interactive exercises. Here, the endgame expert gives you the chance to enter the move at important moments. In the video feedback, Karsten Mueller will tell you whether you have made the right decision. Have fun!

Prague Chess Festival 2024: Nodirbek Abdusattorov was already the tournament winner of the Masters after his victory in the preliminary round against his closest rival, Parham Maghsoodloo, and ended up winning by 1.5 points. The Uzbek comments on this hard-fought game in this issue. Moreover, the runners-up Thai Dai Van Nguyen and Praggnanandhaa as well as David Navara and Mateusz Bartel from the Masters comment on their best games. In the Challengers, the young IM Ediz Gurel from Turkey came out on top and thus qualified for next year's Masters. Erwin l'Ami, Abhimanyu Mishra and Jaime Santos Latasa provide analyses from the Challengers.
