The U. S. Amateur Team East, also known now as the World Amateur Championship, continues to be the most popular chess festival on the USCF tournament calendar. Read Al Lawrence's report in this month's issues of Chess Life. Also in this month, Gata Kamsky faces Veselin Topalov in Kazan, Russia in the opening round of the Candidate Matches. As he contemplated the road to a potential 2012 World Championship match against Viswanathan Anand, Kamsky sat down to talk about past misconceptions, his preparations, and his planned retirement from competitive chess. This, plus a lot more!

  • 1.e4 e5 - An Active Repertoire for Black - Adrian Mikhalchishin

    For young and developing players a very important piece of advice is to study open positions and to understand the value of coordination of the pieces plus the role of the centre. These goals can be achieved just by answering 1.e4 with 1...e5. Some players claim that these positions are not sharp and interesting enough, and they believe that different Sicilians should be one’s choice, but that is not completely correct. The idea of this DVD is to show that 1.e4 e5 can be extremely entertaining and that Black can obtain interesting counterplay in every opening. There are two lines proposed in the Spanish systems plus the most active alternatives against other white choices. Video running time: 6 h 48 min. Video sample System requirements Pentium-Processor at 300 Mhz or higher, 64 MB RAM, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, DVD drive, mouse, soundcard

  • 1. e4 - How to Tame the Alekhine, Scandinavian and Pirc - Viktor Bologan
    While almost everybody is spending 95% of his opening preparation time on major lines, there are some tricky players including strong GMs (I am not an exception) who prepare for their opponents some side lines, which contain many an underwater reef. I decided to collect those secondary openings in one single DVD. From now on openings such as the Pirc, the Scandinavian and the Alekhine Defences will not appear to you in your nightmares any more. The 1.e4 player should be actually thank Black for choosing these openings, since he is providing White with a better centre, a stable advantage and generally speaking pleasant play. The only thing White needs to do is to spend some time studying the lines. I will not bother you with encyclopaedic approach. There is a more practical way.
