2015. Har svart noe mer enn evig sjakk i denne
stillingen? Svart trekker. Løsningen kommer
onsdag.

The 4th round of the London Chess Challenge was an exciting one.
GM Hikaru Nakamura (left) won a fine game as white against GM Vishy
Anand. Naka played the Catalan opening and with 6.Qc2 the players
discussed a variation which is not so often played as the main variations.
Nakamura won a pawn, but Anand has compensation. After a while
Anand`s queen was misplaced on the Queen-side and Nakamura
gradually outplayed his opponent. A fine win for Nakamura who is now
in shared lead with 2,5 points.The games Giri-Aronian, Gischuk-Vachier-
Lagrave, Topalov-Caruana and Carlsen-Adams all ended in draws. So
after 4 rounds Nakamura, Giri and Vachier-Lagrave share the lead with
2,5 points. World Champion Magnus Carlsen pushed hard as white
against GM Michael Adams in a 1.Sf3-game. But despite having rook
and bishop against bishop and knight, Magnus did not manage to break
down the fortress Adams put up. Read more about the round at ChessBase
and at Sjakkfantomet where Sven W.Nilssen analyzes the game Carlsen-
Adams. The 5th round will be played today at 17.00 Norwegian time.
The games are Vachier-Lagrave-Giri, Aronian-Carlsen, Adams-Nakamura,
Caruana-Grischuk and Anand-Topalov.

toer Shemsi Rukovci stoppet begge på 9 poeng etter 12.runde, men
Øyvind hadde flest kvalitetspoen. Gratulerer, Øyvind! Shemsi gjorde også
en fin turnering og er blitt en fin tilvekst til klubben. Han kan fort vinne
klubbmesterskapet som starter i januar. Dag Andersen leverte også en
fin turnering og avsluttet med seier mot Hans Stabbetorp. Dermed ble det
7,5 poeng og en 3.plass.

GM Magnus Carlsen (t.v.) hadde sjanser til et helpoeng mot GM Vishy
Anand i 3.runde av London Chess Classic. Magnus spilte Berlin-muren og
fikk et fordelaktig sluttspill. Magnus fikk imidlertid dårlig tid og unnlot å
spille 40-Sxe5 som trolig hadde vært et bedre vinstforsøk enn 40.-Th8?
hvorpå partiet ebbet ut i remis. Magnus ligger dermed på 1,5 poeng etter
tre runder, et halvt poeng bak lederne Giri og Vachier-Lagrave. Franske
GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave slo GM Veselin Topalov i denne runden.
Partiene Caruana-Nakamura og Adams-Aronian endte også remis. Det
gjorde også møtet mellom GM Alexander Grischuk og GM Anish Giri.
Underveis hadde Grischuk vinstsjanser, men ble for upresis. Les mer
