THE CHESS PL AYER 'S GUIDE TO OPENIN G NEWS

Edited by Genna Sosonko

Opening Highlights

Bobby Fischer

The great American champion did not survive his last

fight. In his 'Corner', Genna Sosonko goes back to

Bobby's glory days and looks at his broad and practical

opening repertoire. From sharp Sicilians to quiet Ruy

Lopezes and gritty King's Indians, Fischer played them all

with his characteristic vigour. This special issue contains

lots of inside information about how the Soviets

viewed the homework of their Nemesis (page 26).

Teimour Radjabov

In Yearbook 82 we hailed the Azeri star as the new champion

of the King's Indian. Now Radjabov has embarked on an even

riskier venture: the Jaenisch Variation in the Ruy Lopez. As

Alexey Kuzmin relates on page 108, it looked like a one-off

surprise in the World Cup, where Teimour lost to Macieja with

it. But since he used this venerable opening to keep the likes of

Anand, Carlsen and Topalov at bay, it can't be that bad!

Vasily lvanchuk

Now Vasily lvanchuk's 14.�e6!! cannonball in the 6.�c4

Najdorf .. . that's something we can call a one-off surprise.

The Amber game with Karjakin is so striking that it deserves

a Survey on its own. Correspondence grandmaster Juan

Morgado holds the game under a magnifying glass on page

36, using an even finer tooth comb than John Nunn did in

New In Chess. The theoretical implications of this line will

be treated in Yearbook 88.

Carsten Hansen

The amiable Dane is known for his thorough

investigations into opening theory on numerous

authoritative websites. His deep research into the

often-neglected territory of the English Four Knights

Variation, started in Yearbook 86, continues on page

226 with an old Kortchnoi ploy that may become

popular again. After you've read this, your 'English' will

be up to scratch for years to come!
