MELBOURNE CHESS CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP 2005

 


Rounds 1-6

Comment by Thai Ly

 

Alex Kaplan v Paul Kovacevic

 
Welcome to the first bulletin of the

2005 Melbourne Chess Club

Championship.  Apologies to those

members who have been waiting for

these bulletins – there was a

misunderstanding as to who would be

compiling the text, games and photos.

It appears that since I’ve compiled

them in the past, the job is mine by

default.

 

Mark Roberts v James Nour

 
The field is a small but competitive group.  IMs Guy West, Peter Froelich and Mirko Rujevic have returned, as have other regulars such as Bob Krstic Malcolm Pyke, Tom Kalisch, Felix Wyss, et al.  Notably in their absence however are regulars Ascaro Pecori and Richard Voon – Ascaro seems to be taking an indefinite hiatus from chess (allegedly on

the urging of his better half!), while Richard was unavailable for the last third of the tournament to attend a reunion back in Malaysia.  On top of these two, Marcus Raine, Elie Beranjia, David Beaumont, Igor Bjelobrk and Eddy Levi just to name a few are also not participating.  Hopefully, these and other members, former and present, will return to tournament play at the MCC soon.

Zhigen Lin v John Beckman

 

 
 


Thankfully, some new faces have come

to participate.  In particular, it is good to

see one of Australia’s most promising

juniors in Zhigen Lin as a participant in

the Club Championship.  Zhigen, who is

also a regular at both Box Hill and

Dandenong Chess Clubs, must be one of

the hardest working chess players going

around at the moment.  All praise to Zhigen’s mum for being so

patient in bringing her son along!  Also notable is the arrival of former top Australasian junior player, Kai Jensen.  Kai (of course, no longer a young whippersnapper) has just recently returned as an active chess player after migrating here from New Zealand.  Up to now, Kai has been fitting chess into his busy schedule at Hobsons Bay Chess Club.  No doubt he can only benefit from a change of scene and opposition that the MCC will provide.  Finally, mention should be made of James Nour, Alwyn Yap and Tino Fulgenzi, who has made a comeback.  I personally do not know that much about him, but I have been told that he was quite a player in the past.  We hope Tino all the best in his return.

Kelvin McBride v Scott Stewart

 
 


Anyway, that’s enough by way of introduction.  The first round got underway on 31 January 2005, while the Oceania Zonal was also underway – this was a bit disruptive to a number of players who had to make up their first round game after their second round encounter.  One of these adjourned

games saw Mirko Rujevic teach Zhigen Lin a lesson in exploiting a material advantage into a win in a bishop endgame.  Meanwhile Kai Jensen convincingly took advantage of Felix Wyss’ underdeveloped

position to sacrifice an exchange for a decisive attack on Black’s king.  Guy West got off to a good start by beating John Beckman, but not after John seemed to get a good position.  Unfortunately, he seemed to lose this with 23...Nd1+? rather than 23...cxd4!.  Most other results went as expected, the only real surprise being a draw in Ly v Arkins, where yours truly misplayed a middlegame advantage to let Damien escape.

Peter Froelich v Bob Krstic

 
 


In round 2, Ly redeemed himself by having

a good win over Tom Kalisch.  Peter Froelich

won quickly against Kelvin McBride after the

latter failed to see he was losing a piece due

to White’s threat of 21.Qg6 with mate. Bob

Krstic beat Roger Beattie with a direct

attack initiated with 20.h4.  Rujevic

squeezed Mark Roberts until the tactic

34.Nxe6! opened up Black’s king for a decisive attack.

 

Thai Ly v Jim Papadinis

 
Round 3 saw fighting chess.  Stephen Wertheim missed a win against a rusty Fulgenzi.  Peter Froelich beat Bob Krstic after coming out of the complicated middlegame two pawns up.  Kai Jensen finished off Barbaros Kara with a scintillating series of sacrifices (21.Bxh7! Kxh7 22.Qh5+ Kg8 23.Rxg7!!).  However, the big news was the upset of the round

(maybe even the tournament) with Malcolm Pyke’s convincing victory over Mirko Rujevic.  Malcolm is always a dangerous opponent as Mirko was to find out.  The game was a big setback to Mirko’s quest for the title.

 

Mirko Rujevic v Malcolm Pyke

 
Round 4 started off with an anti-climax. 

Malcolm Pyke, last round’s giant-killer was

losing a piece and the game against Guy

West within 14 move.  Meanwhile, Mirko

Rujevic took his revenge on Thai Ly,

outplaying Black in the Ruy Lopez.  The

Ruy Lopez also featured in Barbaros Kara’s

good win over Zhigen Lin in the Dilworth

Attack of the Open Variation.  Barbaros has played the White side of this line at least 4(!) times against Box Hill juniors since October 2004.  No wonder he pounded out his moves.  Barbaros had great coordination with his minor pieces, but Zhigen was holding his position until 28...Rxe5?! 29.Rxe5 Rxc3?? 30. Ng5! with unavoidable mate.  James Nour surprisingly held Felix Wyss to a draw.  The game of the round was Froelich v Jensen, where Peter very ably exploited Kai’s shattered pawns in the middegame to force an opposite colour bishops endgame where Peter was a pawn up and Kai’s pawns were unfortunately on the wrong colour for his position to hold.

Tino Fulgenzi v Stephen Wertheim

 
 


Round 5 saw the all-important game of

West v Froelich, and the news was all good for Guy as he relentlessly exploited Black’s weak b-pawn and passive pieces to win.  Although he still has three rounds to go and he has only two games as black so far, Guy looks unstoppable as he steamrolls the

opposition in winning all his games to date. Other games saw Rujevic beat McBride, Kara stumble against Krstic, despite looking to have good chances for much of the game, while Malcolm Pyke recovered his good form by inflicting defeat on Kai Jensen for a second consecutive week, this time with Black in the Benoni.

Barbaros Kara v Kai Jensen

 
 


The good news for Guy West continued in

Round 6.  He beat Bob Krstic in 19 moves

after Bob blundered a piece in the early

middlegame.  Meanwhile, Froelich v Rujevic

was a hard-fought draw, a result that would

have satisfied neither.  Round 6 also saw

some interesting draws.  Kai Jensen would

have been dissatisfied with the draw in his

game against Dejan Soco, as both players misplayed the ending – a theoretical endgame of rook versus two connected passed pawns.  Pyke v Wyss was a ding-dong battle, where Malcolm took the safe option of allowing a perpetual check from Felix.  McBride v Ly saw Black play creatively in the Open Catalan, sacrificing an exchange with 19...Nxe4!? for just enough compensation.  Kelvin then returned the exchange to give Thai the advantage, which he proceeded to hand back with 29...b4?.  However, it was soon Kelvin’s to suffer after simultaneously offering a draw and playing 43.Nc4?.  In the end, a draw was the fair result as neither player deserved to win.

 

Just before I end this commentary, I would like to point out that most of the games seen here in this bulletin can be download in PGN format at the MCC website at the web address:
