Not only the winner of the Masters, Le Quang Liem, comments on one of his games, but Jonas Bjerre, Alexander Donchenko, Abhimanyu Mishra and Ihor Samunenkov also contribute analyses from Biel. In this week's free CBM reading sample we offer you the analyses of Le Quang, Donchenko and Bjerre in the famous ChessBase book format. Take a look!

10/8/2024 – In the diagram position it is Black to move and he fights for survival as White's far advanced e-pawn is very dangerous. However, Black has a way to draw. What would you do?
10/5/2024 – 16...h4 (diagram position) didn't actually threaten anything concrete -
but after White's game move, Black suddenly had mate in 3! Can you
imagine how that happened?
10/1/2024 – Stopping the enemy king from getting active is often an effective weapon in endgames. In the diagram position Black is a pawn down, but he has a way to draw. What should he do?
9/23/2024 – If you don't know your opening variations inside out, you can be shipwrecked right from the start. If you don't know how to build a fortress, you will end up resigning some of your games without needing to. In the last issue of ChessBase Magazine, Dorian Rogozenco started his series “The fortress”, which will gradually develop into a systematic collection of classical fortresses. In the new issue CBM #221, he presents two related motifs from the endgame bishop+pawn vs. pawn. The former coach of the German national team starts by explaining the motifs in the video. This is followed by no less than five interactive videos in which you can playfully put your building skills to the test. Take a look at the CBM reading sample of the week!
9/21/2024 – In the diagram position, Black launched an irresistible wave of attack with 22...d3! - though he rather launched two waves of attack to be precise - enjoy surfing!
9/17/2024 – A knight often has problems to fight against a- or h-pawn. In the diagram position, White's knight could have won that fight, but in the game White failed to find the win. Can you do better?
9/16/2024 – “Ditching the Dutch”, “Carlsen's winning weapon”, “Active against Maroczy” etc. etc. These are just some of the headings of the ten opening articles in the new ChessBase Magazine #221, in which our authors present a new repertoire idea in an overview text and offer in-depth insights into the variations in a selection of annotated games. Robert Ris comes up with a “Stunning piece sac” in the Panov Attack: In a well-known position, in which White normally aims for a queenless middlegame with 13.Qxb5, Robert Ris uncorks the provocative check 13.Qc5+!? We invite you to take a look at his article with all the analyses as a free sample - directly via your web browser in the popular ChessBase books format!
9/14/2024 – In the diagram position White had just played 25.Bh4! in order to plant his knight in the black king's position after 25...g5 26.Nf6+. What happens next ... is entirely up to you!
