The JR Chess Report (May 30): Kamsky win US Championship; Chinese Championships begin in Xinaghua |
Edited on Sun May-30-10 05:48 PM by Jack Rabbit
Gata Kamsky Wins US Championship
Gata Kamsky, a Soviet-born American of Tatar descent, won his first US national championship since the early 1990s Tuesday when he defeated his friend and training partner Yuri Shulman in a rapid Armageddon game in St. Louis. Shulman, who was also born in the old Soviet Union, drew Kamsky the day before in the final round of the quadrangular championship to tie Kamsky for first place. In Tuesday's game, the players started with a base time of 60 minutes, but put in bids of time for the right play Black with the odds of draw (meaning that for Black a draw would be as good as an outright victory). Shulman, not noted for his speed chess skills, all but conceded Black to Kamsky by bidding 40 minutes while Kamsky bid 25, which some commentators thought very low. Shulman played a solid Queen's pawn opening which morphed into a Slav-Grünfeld Defense and appeared to have the upper hand by about the thirtieth move. However, an inaccuracy allowed Kamsky to equalize if not get the better game. On the 66th move Shulman, seeing he could not win the game, agreed to a draw. Kamsky last won the US Championship in 1991. Chinese Championships Begin in Xinghua The annual Chinese National Chess Championships began Monday in Xinghua in Jiangsu province. The defending champion in the general group is Ding Liren, who last year was untitled but this year competes as a grandmaster. The leaders after six rounds are Bu Xiangzhi and Zhou Jianchao with 4½ points each. Ni Hua and Li Shilong are tied for third with 4 point each. As last year, it is indeed improper to refer to the general group as the "men's group," as Hou Yifan is again playing with the guys. Shen Yang is the defending women's champion. The leaders after six rounds are Huang Qian and Ju Wenjun with five points each, a point and a half ahead of Wang Yu in third place. The event ends after the eleventh round Friday. Beginning this week Karpov International Tournament, Poikovsky 31 May-14 June.
