For the 5th time since 2014, a tournament is held in Shamkir, Azerbaijan in memory of Vugar Gashimov (July 24, 1986 - January 11, 2014). Gashimov belonged to the absolute elite in chess. At his best, in November 2009, he was sixth in the world rankings. He battled brain cancer throughout his adulthood, which ultimately forced his retirement from competitive chess in 2012. With his friendly character, Gashimov won many friends during his career.
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.
Commentary by GM Ljubomir Ljubojević and GM Igor Khenkin
The Gashimov Memorial is organized by the Azerbaijan state oil company SOCAR together with the Azerbaijani Chess Federation. The venue is the Haidar Aliev Centre in Shamkir.
The Amazing Albin Counter-Gambit
On this DVD IM Trent shows the Albin Counter-Gambit (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5). Trent found a number of extremely dangerous Theoretical Novelties which will truly put the Albin Counter-Gambit back on the map.
World Champion Magnus Carlsen leads the field, along with three players from the Berlin Candidates Tournament: Sergey Karjakin, Shakriyar Mamedyarov and Ding Liren. Radoslaw Wojtaszek was a late replacement for Vladimir Kramnik who withdrew.
