Game of the Week: Reinderman vs Feuerstack
2/26/2020 – This week IM Merijn van Delft is wearing his "tournament director" hat in Amsterdam at the 12th Batavia tournament. He also gets to be an eager spectator | The live show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium account holders (but FREE for a limited time!).

Master Class Vol.8: Magnus Carlsen
Scarcely any world champion has managed to captivate chess lovers to the extent Carlsen has. The enormously talented Norwegian hasn't been systematically trained within the structures of a major chess-playing nation such as Russia, the Ukraine or China.
Game of the Week #401
This week I am enjoying my role as Batavia tournament director. As usual, lots of fighting chess and exciting battles. Experienced Dutch grandmaster Dimitri Reinderman is convincingly leading the tournament with 4½ out of 5, but his game against Hamburg participant Aljoscha Feuerstack was less convincing, as we will see tonight.

The Sicilian Tajmanov-Scheveningen
The Sicilian has been known for decades as the most reliable way for Black to obtain an unbalanced but good position. Among the most popular Sicilians at the top level the two that certainly stand out are the Najdorf and the Paulsen.
