(Update no.33, June 2002)

Announcement

The e-pawn emperor's next e4-e5 'monthly update' will be posted at www.chesspublishing.com in early August 2002 (or sooner), and in the meantime he will, as always, reply personally to as many e-mail messages as possible which come to MrMo@ChessPublishing.com. Right now, though, on our Internet site there's a tasty new collection of fresh games with some sneaky embedded puzzles waiting to bring you endless hours of enjoyment in a juicy June update.

New Highlights

Tons of fresh mouth-watering goodies await us, including a quick quintet of cracking games (namely G13.112-G13.116) involving the Ruy Lopez and a super set of past and present stars such as Vishy Anand, Mikhail Chigorin, Jonny Hector, Vladimir Kramnik, Jim Plaskett, Ivan Sokolov... Plaskett and Sokolov also do a double demolition job as White and Black respectively when Philidor's Defence gets filled in (see G6.18) and the Scotch Four Knights of G11.20 & G11.20.1 takes a severe scorching! And that's not all. 'The Petroff' is petrified facing GM Igor Glek in G7.28, and the Italian Game of G12.41 rapidly finds itself in ruins in the clash Ruiz Alcade-Rizouk.

Still not had enough yet?! Alright then. An ultra-attacking player named Asauskas from Lithuania will demonstrate another lethal weapon in the King's Gambit of G4.51.

Now you know what to expect. So, full speed ahead, and enjoy the feast!

Very Best Wishes,
Yours Sincerely,
Paul Motwani.
