Round 8 - Live
Chess enthusiast Gerd Densing in playing in Reykjavik and sent us a first-hand report from the beautiful playing venue. He had this to say about the organization:
As usual, the tournament is very well-organized. [...] As in previous years, an enjoyable social programme is spread over the tournament week in the form of an opening party, a pub quiz, a blitz tournament and a Golden Circle round trip.
Five rounds have been played in Iceland, and there is a fierce fight for first place. Saturday is a double-round day, with round 8 starting at 16.00 local time (18.00 CEST). Nicholas Pert, the 2021 British champion and an all-star FritzTrainer author, will be commentating along with Blair Connell on Simon William’s Twitch channel.
The duo will focus on the game of the ever-entertaining Ginger GM!
In this detailed “three-part” video series I take a look at a main line White system based on 1.d4. This series is aimed at the ambitious player who is looking to put maximum pressure on their opponent from the start of the game.
Over the last couple of years nearly all the world's elite grandmasters have been employing the London System, and on this DVD Simon Williams shows what we can learn from their practice. The "Ginger GM" takes a look at all the latest developments whilst teaching you all the basics that you need to know in order to play this opening with success. | Replay and check the LiveBook here |
