5) GAMES

1) Introduction
---------------
This will be the first in what will hopefully be a weekly
round up of the events in chess. I've decided to scale down
my contributions during the week as next year will probably
be a hard one for me at work. Instead I'll save all the material
I get and post it as a single column at the weekend. This will
probably give me the opportunity to put more comment into what
I post and allow me to increase the accuracy. I will continue
to post the Tilburg 1994 tournament day by day but I'll leave to
others the daily reporting of events after that. (I'll obviously 
cover these events in my weekly posting, but perhaps it is time
others did some day to day reporting)

2) PCA CANDIDATES 1994
----------------------

Tuesday 20th of Sept sees the start of the PCA Candidates Semi-Finals.
I've had the dates and pairings for a long time in my stats
on ICS, but it still came as a surprise to me how imminent
they are! UK Teletext seems to confirm that the pairings are
as follows:

Kamsky  - Short
Adams  - Anand

There were some rumours around at the Credit Suisse Masters that
the pairings had been changed. This of course would have been a
scandal, but this doesn't appear to be the case. The effect of 
a repairing with Short and Adams playing each other, would have
guaranteed a British interest in the PCA Candidates finals in
London, but as Kamsky and Anand start strong favourites in my
opinion to contest the final I could never see them agreeing to it.
At the moment I know of two more PCA events.

Rapidplay 4  Nov   7th-13th  Paris
Candidates Final Feb   1995  London

3) SKA MASTERS
--------------

Alongside the Credit Suisse Masters was the B Tournament
tournament sponsored by SKA. In the end it was impressively
won by Julian Hodgson who progressed without defeat.

Hodgson    9/11
Magem, Hickl, Petursson  7
Hug, Zuger   6.5

4) CREDIT SUISSE MASTERS
------------------------

Credit Suisse Masters Horgen near Zurich. 3rd-16th Sept 1994
-----------------  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  0  1  2   TOTAL
1  Kasparov        #  1  1  =  =  1  1  =  1  1  =  =   8.5
2  Shirov          0  #  =  0  =  1  =  1  1  1  1  =   7
3  Yusupov         0  =  #  =  1  1  =  =  =  =  1  1   7
4  Korchnoi        =  =  0  #  1  1  =  =  =  1  =  =   6.5
5  Lautier         =  1  =  0  #  0  =  =  1  =  1  1   6.5
6  Gelfand         0  0  0  1  0  #  =  1  =  1  1  =   5.5
7  Leko            0  =  =  =  =  =  #  1  0  =  =  =   5
8  Benjamin        =  0  =  =  =  0  0  #  =  =  =  1   4.5
9  Nikolic         0  0  =  0  =  =  1  =  #  =  0  1   4.5
10 Lutz            0  0  =  =  0  0  =  =  =  #  1  =   4
11 Miles           =  0  0  0  =  0  =  =  1  0  #  1   4
12 Gavrikov        =  =  0  0  =  =  =  0  0  =  0  #   3

An impressive triumph for Kasparov. Kasparov is a well rounded
player who can play both positionally and, of course tactically.
These days he seems happiest playing with great risk, an example
of this were to be seen in his game against Nikolic. As a player
of the French I can't believe what he did to be sound, but it 
probably was!

5) GAMES
--------

Below are the games that have been collected together so far.
Somewhere during the tournament I mislaid a rest day, so one 
or two of the rounds may be dated slighly incorrectly. Fabian
Maeser and Norbert Friedrich originally posted most of the games 
below. There are no new games here, but hopefully they are in 
good order.
