Big news this week! As always, for feedback and recommendations
go to the forum!
First of all, cvtv thinks you're important, so Josh created a
member survey. All members still where they belong? Good, then you should have no troubles completing the survey. And 10 randomly selected participants (ie me, me, me, me and, ok I bet you saw that joke coming, I apologize :D) get to enjoy one free premium month! All kidding aside, 1 free premium month for 10 of you who took the survey, can it get any better than that?
Actually, I'd have to say it can. The Chessvideos.tv Tournament is back from the dead! To sign up for
the third installment of this great event and look up the details, visit the thread.
More Teamleague: Sadly our team didn't make the play-offs (again), but we won the last round and finish 3rd, as seventh seed. Not so bad! Games, comments, recaps
here.
Coverage of the US Championship can be found in
this thread and in Steve Farmer's videos, for example
Khachiyan vs Kamsky and
Robson vs Yermolinsky.
Coaching advice can be had in a
thread about how to play against d4-system players, a discussion about
calculating is also there for your reading pleasure.
Finally we're really getting into the videos. Thechesser has produced
a lot of live videos lately, go check some of them out! Laurent continues to produce excellent material, this week decidedly on the tactical side:
Luring the King and
The Long-Term Sacrifice. While augelmo plays
Necrofago, the blind analysis continues with Kamus's
Arbiter 2 and
Andrewrun, and there are more to be found!
That's it for this week, keep the videos coming!
