British Chess Magazine September 2020 Edição anterior

In the new issue of BCM: Chess emerging from lockdown – as we learn to live with coronavirus, chess has slowly started to return to over the board events, with Biel being the first major OTB tournament. Read our report from Biel and our analysis – should OTB chess return, how and when? We also take a look at the best games from the recently finished Online Olympiad which ended in controversy. Speaking of controversies and Olympiads: The World Chess body, FIDE, is having problems with the organisers of the 2022 chess Olympiad in Minsk (Belarus), and has sent a call for help to chess sponsors around the world – will Lukashenko take note? We also analyse the story of Hikaru Nakamura becoming the first big chess streamer on the leading e-sports platform TMS. Want to improve your game? BCM offers a series of articles on opening theory, endgames and problem studies. Finally, we remember the great German GM Wolfgang Uhlmann (1935 – 2020) and his chess legacy.
