CHESSBASE MAGAZINE 83
August 2001

The main database, which appears as "83CBM" in your database window, this time contains 1811 games. Of these 506 are annotated. In this issue of ChessBase Magazine we have two multimedia reports. The first is a supplement to our CBM 79 multimedia report, which took a traditional look at the Brain Games World Championship, which took place in London last November. It was a visitor´s impression, a journalist attending the event and filming everything he was allowed to film at the Hammersmith site. In the current issue we have a completely different report on that historic match. Our special correspondent, Almira Skripchenko-Lautier, who by the way is the newly crowned European Women's Champion, was also in London at the time. But in addition to the championship itself she also had access to the camp of the challenger. The reason is simple: Almira is married to French GM Joel Lautier, and Joel was one of Vladimir Kramnik's three seconds during the match

CHESSBASE MAGAZINE 82
June 2001

This contains 1226 games and seven database texts – an introductory text with hints on how to access the database, two texts featuring surveys on the opening sectors reviewed by Christopher Lutz and Igor Stohl as well as four tournament texts.
The strongest classical tournament was the one in Linares. This year, the two world champions Vladimir Kramnik and Vishy Anand were absent – the FIDE world champion allegedly had other obligations, and Kramnik was, as it transpired, not satisfied with the financial offer. But Gary Kasparov did play, and the dethroned world champion outdistanced the other five participants by three points (7,5/10). It was a case of one first place, five last places

In the Braingames world championship there were only two decisive games, both won by Kramnik, who also managed to find an impregnable defence against Kasparov's white onslaught. The FIDE world championship in Delhi and Teheran ended in victory for the favourite Vishy Anand, who thus becomes Asia's first chess world champion

CHESSBASE MAGAZINE 78
October 2000

ChessBase Magazine 78 can offer its readers two world champions. When Vladimir Kramnik explained how to win against the Junior program during a video interview shown here in our multimedia report on the Dortmund Sparkassen Chess Meeting, he, of course, could not have known that he would defeat Kasparov shortly thereafter. He explains his strategy against the computer in a humorous way. "Well, I just wanted to bring it into time trouble, and then it surely would overlook a piece, and it really turned out that way...". Alexander Khalifman is the official FIDE world champion. Against Junior, he was basically lost after 18 moves. He tells us what he was thinking and how he was able to save the game. And he too shows that he has a lot of humour. In addition, we have a lot more exciting interviews and clips from Dortmund for you, and a great deal of chess of course: about 1800 games from which 524 are annotated. As always, there are the categories theory (openings), middlegame and endgame.
