It’s Saturday Open Forum. There are a lot of chess actions this week.
Carlsen and Alekseev are leading Biel at the midway point. North Urals Cup super women’s tournament is starting tomorrow. Marx György Memorial just started yesterday.

Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
No matter who is playing for the World Championship: Anand, Kramnik, Kamsky or Topalov…the most interesting match would be KASPAROV-CARLSEN!!!
Susan & Paul
Keep up the good work your both doing for the children and young adults with these chess events. Post some photos of this weekends event so everyone can enjoy the good result your promoting / making happen through your own sacrifice of time and financial resource. Good Job.

Can someone shed some light on the new rybka 3? I see several different programs for sale: rybka 3, deep rybka 3, aquarium, rybka book, rybka uci. I’m confused as to what would best fit a laptop with core 2 duo.

Finally admit that you have given up on popularizing Fischer Random Chess. I will stop twiddling my thimbs waiting for this to happen. *sigh*
I guess the opening-prepearation-masters (almost serious players) would naturallly oppose such a move, so I can understand the failure of this.
Hi, question for you about 2 books your father wrote, Chess Middlegames and Chess Endgames. Checking online, I cannot locate them in the US (at least at a decent price). Do you know if there are any plans to release them here? I am sure they would sell well here.
Thanks!
What does everyone think of chess boxing: Chess Boxing Link
Who would do better: an outstanding boxer with limited chess skills, or an outstanding chess player with limited boxing skills?
Well, if you have no boxing skills, it’s game over with one punch.
Chess boxing … just one more utterly naff concept.
I would like to wish the team representing the USA at the World Mind Sports Games every success.
