68 Cover Stories
Four decades of New In Chess magazine resulted in 327 covers, some forgotten, some still fresh in mind. What did they tell us? Who was on them? Let’s take another look.
76 Chess as a Business
The video streams of the Ding-Gukesh match, the Olympiad, and Tata Steel Chess are all produced by the Dutch company iMotion.
80 James Altucher
Emanuel Lasker is the greatest of the GOATS.
82 Fair & Square
He won $1 million. It is a shame. He could have been 2000 Elo by now.
83 Maximize Your Tactics
Nine puzzles, selected by Maxim Notkin.
84 How to Improve
Solving a beautiful puzzle can be very satisfying. However, 98% of the moves you will have to play involve ‘gritty calculation’ instead of an obvious solution.
88 The Model Game
The Maroczy Bind is all about space. White can use it to manoeuvre, Black is cramped.
92 The scoresheet
Kosteniuk-Roebers, Hoogeveen 2024.
94 Sadler on Books
The third volume of Viktor Korchnoi’s biography still does not bring clarity. So many things happen in Korchnoi’s games that they are sometimes very difficult to understand.
98 Jan Timman
India and China are chess superpowers. Yet, the first Asian GM came from the Philippines. Fifty years ago, Eugene Torre made history.
