Premium Chessgames Member		  Check It Out: What are you talking about?! I love Titanic :D

Seriously, no Karjakin?

Sep-13-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  HeMateMe: this is always a great tournament. Someday in the future Russia will again be part of the family of nations.
Sep-13-22  paavoh: Many short draws so far, what's going on?
Sep-13-22  Chessius the Messius: They no like winning. Mowing the csar's lawn all the time and it's still riddled with ticks.
Sep-13-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  HeMateMe: It would seem the cream of Russian chess is protesting Ukraine, by having the entire first round end in short draws. They are sending a message.
Sep-13-22  savagerules: The big names (except for Karjakin) will all show up in high spirits for the V. Putin Memorial Tournament hopefully sometime real soon.
Sep-13-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  HeMateMe: Hopefully the Putin Memorial tournament will be nicknamed 'The Romanov Redux.'
Sep-13-22  tessathedog: I've played over all the games from the first two rounds. The first round was more interesting than the second. So far the players seem to be playing themselves into the tournament...some of the positions agreed drawn were indeed pretty lifeless, but others could certainly have been played out much further. My favorite little game was young Murzin's neat perpetual in round 1. Tomashevsky played a really interesting pawn sacrifice in round one, the compensation is clear, and then immediately offered a draw without even waiting to see if his opponent would accept the sacrifice or not! In the only decisive game played so far, I quite admired Neresov's two sacrifices. They may have been doubtful, and he lost, but at least his chess was interesting. Artemiev showed nice technique to demonstrate that any thoughts of a fortress were illusory. Hopefully all players will begin to fight harder from round 3 today. They are now settled in, the tournament has a nice mix of very strong GM's and slightly lesser players, which should encourage pushing for full points. Certainly I can't see Dubov playing a third quiet game in a row!

Premium Chessgames Member		  MissScarlett: <They are sending a message.> If that is the case, knowing chess players, it would more likely be a protest against the prize money and/or playing conditions.
Sep-13-22  Chessius the Messius: Artemiev vs Nesterov 13... Nb8 is a curious retreat. Must be Russian humor this game.
Sep-13-22  AngeLa: where's gmpeter svidler??
Sep-13-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  MissScarlett: I'm tempted to say <in exile>, but technically correct is St. Louis, Missouri. Following a commentary stint with the <Grand Chess Tour>, he is due to take part in the Chess960 event there shortly.
Sep-13-22  ILikeKeres: I thought Russian chess was supposed to be daring. This tournament has seen a few grandmaster draws. *Yawn*.
Sep-14-22  ortznoi: I'm looking for something else!!!
Sep-14-22  tessathedog: Another very quiet set of games in round 3. It seems to be compulsory to answer 1 e4 with 1...e5 in this tournament. There's been a remarkable number (well, several) seemingly quite interesting short draws which end in a perpetual, but it seems pretty clear the players knew about these drawing lines in advance, and were just trotting out what they had already found on their engine. Hopefully the strongest players start to push harder from round 4.
Sep-14-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  MissScarlett: I think Murzin only has one GM norm (FIDE's DB is little help), so it'll be interesting to note his progress here.
Sep-14-22  karik: Sjugirov has played 15 moves in all of his games so far...
Sep-14-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  HeMateMe: Maybe the tournament sponsor is a Putin friend?
Sep-14-22  et1: In 18 games, 12 are miniatures, and only one was not a draw. lasting 61 moves. What is going on ?
Sep-14-22  Chessius the Messius: What military operations are all about, I assume.
Sep-14-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  HeMateMe: Where are the games?
Sep-14-22
Premium Chessgames Member		  MissScarlett: Three of the field - Esipenko, Chigaev and Matlakov - are playing the Chess.com Global Challenge. Esipenko and Matlakov already through the first round, so they're already guaranteed $10,000.

Premium Chessgames Member		  Check It Out: This tournament seems rigged, that's a shame. Perhaps the players are protesting.
