Six players lead the Russian Championship

by Julian Wnuck
8/31/2018 – Halftime and a rest day at the Russian Championships, after six of eleven rounds. In the open tournament, six players are in the lead each with 3½ out of 6 points, but the Elo favourites are not among them. Even in the women's tournament, the nominal favorites have had a hard time. Olga Girya and Alina Kashlinskaya lead with 4 out of 6, while Alexandra Kosteniuk (pictured) has scored just 3 out of 6 or fifty percent.

Superfinal in Satka

Hosting the 2018 Russian Championships is the 45,000-inhabitant city of Satka in the Southern Urals. Neither the Open or the Women's Championship has the Elo favourites leading at the mid-way point, but both tournaments have witnessed exciting fights so far and further top chess is expected for the remaining five rounds.

Sergei Karjakin and Alexander Grischuk had to cancel their participation as they had commitments that ended two days ago at the Sinquefield Cup in Saint Louis, which also accounts for the absence of defending champion Peter Svidler — but not as a player but as a commentator of the Russian-language live stream. In addition to these three, Vladimir Kramnik also declined to play.

However, Russian chess still has countless other extremely strong players to offer and the Elo average of 2685 speaks volumes. A total of six players with an Elo rating over 2700 take part in this year's championship. Yet, surprisingly, after six rounds, favourites Ian Nepomniachtchi (2768), Dmitry Jakovenko (2748) and Nikita Vitiugov (2730) are all in the lower half of the table. Neither Nepomniachtchi nor Vitiugov has won a game so far — Vitiugov has lost one and Nepomniachtchi has even lost two already.

One of the top seed's losses came at the hands of Vladimir Fedoseev — an important victory for him and at the same time the first surprise of the tournament. Nepo was surprised in the opening by Fedoseev's take on a topical variation and did not find the right answer. His attempt to open the position in his favour was refuted immediately.

(Fedoseev) 13...Ba7 "Abstract, the most logical move." (Fedoseev) 13...Kh8!? (Shipov) 14.Bf1?! This is probably a dubious idea. Black reaches a very satisfying position a few moves later "Not stupid" Fedoseev remarked here. 14.Qb3 Rb8 (Black doesn't want to play c7-c6, which would rule out the manoeuvre Ne7-c6-b4.) 14...Nc6! 15.d5 Nb4 16.Nc4 Bc5 Also 16...Re8!? Fedoseev however didn't like the possibility of 17.Nxa5 Nxe4 18.Be3! after which the black knight on b4 could get into trouble, e.g. Bxe3 19.Raxe3 Rxa5 20.Rxe4 Rxe4 21.Rxe4 and on Nxd5 22.Qd2 Nf6 follows. 22...c6 allows 23.Qxa5 Qxa5 24.Re8# the engine finds here 22...b6 23.b4 Nf6 23.Qxa5 Nxe4 24.Qxh5 winning a piece. 17.g4 "White plays logically." (Fedoseev) Bg6 18.Bg5 Re8 19.Nfd2 h6 20.Bh4 Bh7 On 20...c6 Fedoseev did not like the move 21.Nb3 or after adding 21.dxc6 bxc6 21.Bg2 g5 22.Bg3 Qe7 Now the d5 pawn hangs because the rook is only covered once on e1. 23.Ne3 Fedoseev expected the move 23.Kf1 here, but the engine thinks the text move is the strongest. 23...Na6 The question is where can the attacked rook on a3 move. Even 23...c6 was playable: 24.dxc6 bxc6 25.Nf5 Bxf5 26.gxf5 , but opening the position was not what Fedoseev was aiming for. On Nd7 27.e5 there is the question of how to activate the g2-bishop and bring the a3-rook to the kingside. (Fedoseev). But naturally not 23...Nxe4?? 24.Nxe4 Bxe4 25.Nf5+- 24.Ra1 Shipov suggested 24.Rc3 but Black already has an advantage; for example Bb4 25.Rc2 25.Nec4? Nxd5-+ 25...Nc5 26.f3 Nd3 24...Qf8 Fedoseev was sure that he already had a slightly better position here. 25.Nec4 25.Nf5!? was a worthy alternative: Bxf5 26.gxf5 Qg7 and Black pushes h6-h5 etc. "In this very sharp position it is not clear who is attacking." (Fedoseev) On 26...Bd4 White has 27.Nc4 in answer. 25...Bb4 26.f4? "Suicide" in a very sharp but balanced position. "White is not ready to open the position with this thrust." (Fedoseev) 26.f3 Nc5 26...c6!? - Shipov 27.Bf1 was the continuation expected by Fedoseev. 26...gxf4 27.Bxf4 Nc5 The white centre now collapses and Nepomniachtchi's position becomes untenable. 28.e5 dxe5 28...Nd3 was a "loss of time", as White plays 29.Rf1 (however Black also is winning, according to the engine.) 29.Rxe5 Nd3 30.Rxe8 Rxe8 31.Bg3 31.Bxc7 Qc5+-+ 31...Nxd5 32.Kh2 32.Bxd5 Qc5+-+ 32...c6-+ 33.Nf3 Ne3 34.Nxe3 Rxe3 35.Qf1 Bd6 36.Bxd6 Qxd6+ Aufgegeben. 36...Qxd6+ 37.Kg1 Be4 38.Rd1 Qg3 39.Nh2 Nf4 and White can no longer hold. 0–1

Nepomniachtchi

Things are not going so well for Nepomniachtchi | Photo: Russian Chess Federation

At the top of the table is a bunch of six players, all of whom have 3½ points to their credit. Daniil Dubov (2691), who was on fire after two consecutive wins (in rounds 3 and 4), was beaten and overtaken in the sixth round by Evgeny Tomashevsky (2702).

Dubov won an interesting game in which he sought out complications. Inarkiev spent a lot of time in a complicated Benoni game and
overlooked a double-rook sacrifice of his opponent, after which his position immediately was lost.

In his next game, he capitalised on the poor form of Dennis Khismatullin to take the lead in the tournament, before being brought back down to Earth by Tomashevsky.

1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 g6 3.c4 Bg7 4.e3 This modest move, which has been popular for some time, is an effective approach against the Gruenfeld-Indian Defence. 0-0 4...d5 runs into the strong answer 5.cxd5 Nxd5 6.e4! and Black can no longer switch his knight to c3, but has to move it away, whereupon White builds a strong pawn center, albeit with a loss of tempo for e2-e3-e4.

"and I'm becoming worse" (Dubov) 24.Bb4 (Shipov) keeps the upper hand for White. Dubov had an exchange sacrifice: Rxb4 25.Rxb4 Nc5 , after which Black has some compensation, but it remains doubtful that this will be enough. 19...f5 19...Bxb2 20.Rab1 Nf6 21.Bf3 21.Rxb2? c3 21...Re7 22.Rxb2 c3 23.Bxc3 Rxc3 24.Qd4 Dubov didn't like.

Dubov expected 23.Rdc1 c3! 23...Nd3? 24.Rxc4 24.bxc3 Rxb1 25.Rxb1 Ra4 26.Qc2 Qxa5 27.c4 Ra2 28.Bxa5 Rxc2 and didn't think Black is worse, but he has the easier position to play. 23...c3! 23...Rexe3 24.Bxe3 Rxe3 25.Qxc4 Dubov had also considered but didn't think was clear enough. 24.fxe4?? This move loses on the spot.

Ernesto Inarkiev (2690) has also recorded two wins and a loss. He is joined in the lead by Dmitry Andreikin (2710), Grigoriy Oparin (2609) and Alexey Sarana (2613).

Dubov has proved in last year's Superfinal that he is one of the hottest contenders for the national championship title. His sharp playing style costs him a game every now and then, but he is not irritated by such trifles.

The solid Tomashevsky waits patiently for the opportunities his opponents offer him. Inarkiev is recovering from his recent match loss against Wei Yi and would like to make up for it with an outstanding result in the Superfinal.

Especially curious is the performance of 18-year-old geology student Sarana, who won the Higher League, the qualifying tournament for the Superfinal, in Yaroslavl in early July ahead of Oparin.

For the young grandmaster, the Superfinal is a big test — he has never participated in a similarly strong tournament before. As his competitors have discovered, he is not easily beaten. He was able to save worse positions against Andreikin and Fedoseev, who with 3/6 still has every chance of winning first place. In the last round, Sarana played a smooth game against Mikhail Kobalia (2619) and picked up a victory.

An unfortunate game for Kobalia, who surprised Sarana in the opening bust missed two winning tries in a sharp position. The 18-year-old Sarana survived the anxious moments unscathed and then left nothing to chance. It will be interesting to see if the newcomer can remain among those in first place

(Sarana) After the game, Sarana sought an improvement here: 18...0-0 19.Bg4 Nf4 20.Bxf4 exf4 21.Qxf4 Rfe8 and the opposite coloured bishops with a better king position offer Black a more solid position than in the game. Nevertheless, White retains an advantage. "since I did not know 16.Nc6, I thought I would be better off after that, but in fact my position deteriorated more and more." (Sarana) 19.Bg4 Ng7 20.h4 Rd8 21.f4 Nf5 22.h5 Nxe3 23.Qxe3 Qc5 24.Qf3 exf4? The engine doesn't agree with this move at all, but Black already seems to have problems. 24...0-0? is ruled out completely due to 25.hxg6 together with Qh3 the attack on the h-file is overwhelming. 24...d5 25.hxg6 fxg6 and now the quiet move 26.Kb1! e4 27.Qh3 and the f4-f5 push gives White a strong attack against the black king stuck in the centre. 25.hxg6? White has done well so far but at this point he is losing ground. 25.Rde1! Qxg5 25...Kf8 26.hxg6 fxg6 27.Qxf4++- 25...0-0 26.hxg6+- 26.hxg6 Qxg6 26...fxg6 27.Qc3 Rg8 28.Rxh7+- 27.Qb7+- has lead a winning position for White. 25...fxg6? 25...Qe3+! Black would likely hold on. 26.Qxe3 fxe3 27.Rxh7 0-0! 28.Rdh1 Bxg5 26.Rhe1?? The wrong rook! 26.Rde1! was the right move. Qxg5 26...d5 27.Qxf4 Rf8 28.Qe5 Rf7 29.Rhf1 Rxf1 30.Rxf1+- 26...Rf8 27.Rxe7+ Kxe7 28.Rxh7+ Rf7 29.Qb7++- 27.Qc3 Rg8 28.Rxh7+- 26...Qxg5! Now the tide turns - Black takes the initiative. 27.Qc3 Still the best move. On 27.Rd5 Black answers Qh4! 27...0-0 A long-awaited answer from Black. The king of Sarana is finally safe now. 27...Rf8? 28.Rxe7+ Kxe7 28...Qxe7 29.Re1+- 29.Re1+ Kf7 30.Be6+ would lead to a quick mate. 28.Be6+ This exchange sacrifice does not give Kobalia his hoped-for advantage. Rf7 29.Bxf7+ Kxf7 Black has received enough pawns for the exchange and White must find accurate moves to maintain a balance. 30.Qh3? Thus, the position tilts finally in Black's favour, an edge which he does not let slip away. 30.Qc7! would have been the right choice, according to Sarana. He planned to continue d5 30...h5!? Stockfish 31.Re5 31.Kb1!? Shipov Qf6 32.Rd2! and Black must find the engine move Qd6! so as not to be at a disadvantage. 31...Rd7! and Black has everything under control. 30...Kg7 31.Rh1 h5 32.Rhg1 Qc5 33.Qg2 Qf5 34.Rd5 f3! 35.Qd2 35.Rxf5 fxg2 36.Rxg2 Rh8 was also thankless in the long run. 35...f2 36.Rf1 Qe4 leads to a win. Somewhat stronger according to the engine was 36...Qg4 37.Qxf2 Rf8 38.Qg1 Rxf1+ 39.Qxf1 h4-+ but Sarana thought it was "easier to play with rooks than queens". 37.Rxf2 Qh1+ 38.Qd1 Qxd1+ 39.Kxd1 h4 40.Ke2 40.a4 bxa4 41.Ra5 Bf6-+ Besides ...Be5 and the g-pawn is running. 40...Bf6 41.Rh2 g5-+ 42.Kf3 Be5 43.Re2 Kg6 44.Kg4 44.Rexe5 Rf8+-+ 44...Rf8 45.Re4 Rf2 46.a4 Rg2+ 47.Kf3 h3 and White gave up. The black h-pawn will cost him a rook. 0–1

Kobalia,M2619Sarana,A26130–12018B9071st RUS-ch Superfinal 20186

The surprising form of the Elo favourites means it's not yet at all clear whose chances to win the tournament are the best. Andreikin may still have the best shot, as he has yet to face most of the leaders against whom he may exploit his depth of experience.

Although Nepomniachtchi and Vitiugov seem to be out of shape, their normal strength can reappear at any time — and most of the six leaders have yet to compete against them too. It could be a very exciting finish!

Women's Championship

In the women's tournament, the only top player missing is Kateryna Lagno, who cancelled for family reasons. Former World Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk (2559), two-time European champion and three-time national champion Valentina Gunina (2528) and defending champion Aleksandra Goryachkina (2535) are therefore the main Elo favourites.

Similar to the men's tournament, however, after six rounds we find other players leading: WGM Olga Girya (2462) and IM Alina Kashlinskaya (2440) are at the top of the table with 4 out of 6. However, the top seeds are close behind and the outcome of the traditionally highly competitive championship among Russian women is still completely open. Gunina has played a surprising number of games to a draw, in contrast to her typically sharp style, and has collected 3½ points, as has Goryachkina; Kosteniuk will probably not stay long at fifty percent.

Also there are WGM Natalija Pogonina (2469) and IM Alisa Galliamova (2424), who have a lot of experience and can certainly also make a run at the title. WFM Oksana Gritsayeva (2391), who is in third place with 3½ points after six laps, has been a positive surprise so far.
