Wielka Justyna !!

Justyna Kowalczyk zdobyła złoty medal w biegu na 30 km techniką dowolną rozgrywanym podczas mistrzostw świata w narciarstwie klasycznym w czeskim Libercu!!! To trzeci "krążek" Polki, która była 3. na 10 km techniką klasyczną i 1. w biegu łączonym 2x7,5 km.
Kowalczyk należała do faworytek biegu. Jednak konkurentki także prezentowały się doskonale.Polka od początku biegu kontrolowała jego przebieg. Biegła blisko czołówki i starała się nie odstawać. Dopiero na końcowych 10 kilometrach Kowalczyk starała się rozciągnąć kilkuosobową grupkę. Na 5 kilometrów przed metą w czołówce było dziewięć biegaczek. Grupę prowadziły Kowalczyk i Norweżka Kristin Stoermer Steira.

Obrona sycylijska B99
Viswanathan Anand - Vladimir Kramnik
WCC 2008 Round 11 Bonn
29.10.2008 Anand has White pieces and needs only to draw. This shouldn't be too hard for him, though Kramnik finally found his form.
1.e4 I thought that this move won't be played at all in the match.
1... c5 (1... e5 would pretty much mean surrendering the title.)
2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6 6.Bg5 ( Instead of Anand's favorite 6.Be3)
6... e6 7.f4 Qc7 In the main lines of 7...Qb6 or 7...Nbd7 White may force the draw result.
8.Bxf6 gxf6 9.f5 (9.Qd2 Nc6 10.Be2 is the most popular way for White to fight for opening advantage.)
9... Qc5 (9... Nc6 10.fxe6 fxe6 11.Bc4 Nxd4 12.Qxd4 Rg8 13.O-O-O bears no risk for White.)
10.Qd3 Nc6 11.Nb3 Qe5 The Queen got to an excellent square. The drawback is that 'b6' is left unprotected.
12.O-O-O exf5 Capturing the pawn seems anti positional, but otherwise Black has no active plan.
13.Qe3 Bg7 ( Kramnik spent a lot of time over this move and now the clock readings are equal: 1.10 1.10. Nevertheless, it seems to weird to be good. 13... fxe4 seems to be risky, but deserved testing. In lines as 14.Rd5 Qe6 15.Nxe4 (15.Nd4 Nxd4 16.Qxd4 is stronger) 15... f5 16.Nxd6+ Bxd6 17.Qxe6+ fxe6 18.Rxd6 Ke7 Black is OK.)
14.Rd5 Qe7 15.Qg3 Rg8 Kramnik is balancing with only moves the threat to get into strategically lost position.
16.Qf4 fxe4 17.Nxe4 f5 (17... Be6 only looks promising. In fact 18.Rd1 Kf8 19.Ng3 leaves Black without any counterplay.)
18.Nxd6+ Kf8 19.Nxc8 Rxc8 20.Kb1 After this precise move Black chances to launch a counterattack vanished into thin air.
20... Qe1+ Obligatory.
21.Nc1 Ne7 22.Qd2 Qxd2 23.Rxd2 Bh6 24.Rf2 ( Anand woulb be happy to share the point and is not looking for a win after 24.Rd7)
24... Be3 Draw agreed. Kramnik has to fight hard for the draw with no winning chances, so he preferred to surrender the match. As I have predicted, Vishy effortlessly drew, and deservedly defended his title of World Chess Champion.
1/2

Paul Keres (Estonia) - wiecznie drugi a grał świetnie

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 d6 5. c4 Keres tryed a c4 instead of c3 move, cause he wanted to suprise Alekhine, who used to play this opening with a great success. 5... Bd7 6. Nc3 g6 7. d4 Bg7 8. Be3 Nf6 This inaccuracy allows White to grasp the initiative. Better is 8...Nge7 or exd4. 9. dxe5 dxe5 10. Bc5 Nh5 11. Nd5 Nf4 12. Nxf4 exf4 13. e5 g5 14. Qd5 Bf8 15. Bxf8 Rxf8 16. O-O-O Qe7 If 17...g4 18. e6 fxe6 19. Qh5 wins. 17. Bxc6 Prevents Black from castling. He was hoping for 17. Nxg5 O-O-O. 17... Bxc6 18. Qd3 Bd7 Offering a pawn to get the king to safety. No better is 18...h6 19. e6! fxe6 20. Ne5 Rg8 21. Qh3 Qf6 22. Rfe1. 19. Nxg5 O-O-O 20. Nf3 f6 21. exf6 Rxf6 The last hope was 21...Qxf6! "It is interesting to observe that Alekhine was afraid of a possible 22. Qxh7 as he said after the game. I, on the other hand, would have contented myself with 22. Qd4 Qxd4 23. Nxd4 having regard to the fact that my time on the clock was by now rather restricted." -- Keres 22. Rhe1 Qb4 A final error in a lost position. But on 22...Qg7 23. Qd4 (threatening Qa7 or Ne5) the win would not be in doubt.Black resigns. If 23...Rxd7 24. Re8 mates. 23. Qxd7+ Black resigns. If 23...Rxd7 24. Re8 mates.
