From the World’s top events there is only one to be written
about, and that is the French Team Championship, where a
lot of top chess players are playing, such as for example So,
Giri, Jakovenko, Wojtaszek, Vachier Lagrave and many more.
As usual the very strong team from Clichy (So, Jakovenko,
Vachier Lagrave, Fressinet...) defends the title but this time
the team of Bischwiller (Giri, Naiditsch, Bacrot, Edouard,
Ragger...) is a very serious competitor. Both teams managed
to win the first rounds and in the th it came to the direct
encounter, where Bischwiller managed to decide the match
in its favor with wins from Giri and Bacrot, while Skripchenko
scored Clichy’s only win.
In the current issue you will to find the best games from the
French league, combined with a lot of other interesting chess
material!
Enjoy!

Two best games of the past week
...f
The main move for Black, because in case he would let
White play Bh then a er Nc -Ne -Rad his position would be
clearly better.

We are going to see a long line of theory, where according to
the computer Black is fine, but in practical play it is almost
impossible to find the right moves. A very good example on
the fact that human understanding can still beat a computer
preparation! Big credit of course goes to Jakovenko, who
showed with very convincing play what the dangers are in
such a risky line.
.e c
.Nf
Nc
.Bb g
Cornette is usually very
well-prepared and doesn’t just play some "random" lines.
.Bxc bxc
[ ...dxc
.d
Bg
.h is the main line here.]
.O-O
Bg
.Re
the main move. White is not trying to play
c -d immediately but waiting for Black to decide where the
knight is going from g .
...Nf
[ ...Nh is another possible line, but it seems like
White is a bit better a er .c O-O .h d .d +=]
.e
Nd
.c
Now we see that the move Re was very useful
and White can immediately play c .
...Nc
theory.
.d cxd
.Qxd O-O
This is of course all still
.Nc
Jakovenko chooses the most direct line. [An easier
try for White is .exf
...exf
.Bd preparing to play Bc ,
with a small plus for White.; It is too early for .Bh ?! ...g
.Qh
Ne
and Black is threatening to play Nf next.]
...Ne
.Ne
White is giving the e pawn in exchange for
a strong initiative on the kingside.
...fxe
This move is also a must. We are in quite a forced
position.
.Nfg
Nxg
.Bxg
We are still following theory.
...Qb
Black is going for the b pawn. White can’t take on
e on the spot because of Rf .
.c
fixing the bishop on c . We are still in a more or less
known position.
...Qxb
.Rad
Now White finally wants to take on e .
...Qxa
Cornette played everything very quickly until here,
so it seems to be his preparation.
.Bxe
Now that Rf is not that dangerous any longer, White
is taking the e pawn.
.Qh
White wants to exchange the bishop with Bh next.

...Rf
.Qg
So we are in the first critical position. It is
clear that White will try to mate on the kingside and that Black
will try to push the a-pawn. The position is very dynamic.
...a
Cornette is immediately launching his play. [In case
Black would try to get rid of the knight on e with ...Qc
a simple move like .f looks very solid. White’s idea would
remain to play Bg or maybe the direct h -h .]
.Bg
Asking Black a di icult question.
.h !
A strong move! White does not only want to break
Black’s pawn structure with h , but he also creates an escape
square for the white king in case there will be opportunity to
play Rxe .
...Bc
Black is trying to get the bishop back into defense.
.Rde
Another good move. Now White is really considering
to take on e .
...Rxe
[A er ...Rf
.h a
.h White’s attack looks
very dangerous, not to say winning...
...a
.hxg hxg
.Rd and all the white pieces are mating the black king!]
.Rxe
Now White is an exchange up but in case Black would
manage to hold on the kingside, the a-pawn and the bishop
pair would give him enough compensation.
...Ba
Cornette is trying to transfer his bishop from c to
d ; a very logical decision, but it costs him a lot of time.
[It would end up badly for Black to go for the c pawn:
...Qc
.Rde
Qxc
and White is winning with .Rxe !
Bxe
.Rxe and as we know, the attack is only getting
stronger when there are opposite colored bishops on the
boards. White must be winning here.]
...Bf
[A er ...Bd White has .Rxe !
Bxe
.Qxe
Now the deadly threat is Bh next. ...Rf and a er the cool
.f Black can’t do anything against the upcoming Bh .; It
also seems to be too late for ...a
.h and I don’t see how
Black can hold this position.]
.h a
The black pawn is only
