TEMURAMAH BERSAMA ABDUL HAQ MOHAMED

Fide Rating : 2081

Tahniah di atas kejayaan Abdul Haq (photo di bawah) dalam menganjurkan 2010 National Chess Championship di Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) buat julung kalinya. Tolong terangkan kejayaan pihak UKM yang mendapat kepercayaan Persekutuan Catur Malaysia (MCF) untuk menganjurkan kejohanan tersebut pada tahun ini?

Kejayaan penganjuran Kejohanan Catur Kebangsaan yang berprestij ini merupakan kerjasama erat berdasarkan kepercayaan terhadap satu sama lain dan sikap bertolak ansur di antara UKM melalui Pusat Sukan UKM dan MCF.

Adakah penyertaan tahun ini lebih baik berbanding tahun lepas?

Ya. Penyertaan tahun ini ternyata lebih baik jika dibandingkan pada tahun lepas memandangkan jumlah penyertaan bagi kedua-dua kategori telah meningkat kepada suatu angka yang sukar dipercayai oleh semua.

Apa perbezaan yang ada pada kejohanan ini berbanding yang lepas?

Perbezaan paling ketara ialah apabila nama `National Closed` yang sinonim di kalangan peminat catur Malaysia telah ditukar kepada `National Chess Championship atau NCC`. Selain itu, jumlah terkumpul hadiah telah meningkat sehingga mencecah 5 Ribu Ringgit. Malah saya sendiri boleh dilihat sebagai perbezaan jika saudara Hairul bersetuju :)

Adakah kejohanan tahun ini berjalan dengan lancar?

Kejohanan NCC pada tahun ini saya kira telah berjalan dengan begitu lancar sekali memandangkan NCC kali ini saya kira telah melibatkan 3 pihak yang terlibat iaitu pihak Pusat Sukan UKM, MCF dan sekretariat NCC.

Apa maklumbalas yang anda terima mengenai kejohanan ini dari para peserta dan penonton?

Pelbagai maklumbalas telah diterima secara langsung mahupun tidak langsung. Peserta sudah pasti gembira apabila kenaikan jumlah hadiah memberi impak kepada jumlah penyertaan peserta yang turut disertai oleh kebanyakan peserta berpengalaman, sehinggakan memberi peluang kepada peserta unrated untuk mendapatkan rating FIDE. Penonton yang terdiri daripada ibu-bapa pula memberikan kata-kata semangat yang membina keyakinan saya untuk terus mengekalkan dan menjayakan konsep yang telah diperkenalkan oleh pihak sekretariat NCC.

Ini merupakan kali kedua pihak UKM menganjurkan kejohanan yang agak besar selepas UKM Master baru-baru ini yang melibatkan para pemain dari luar negara. Adakah UKM akan menganjurkan lagi kejohanan-kejohanan besar di masa akan datang?

Ya. UKM akan terus menjayakan pertandingan catur samada besar atau kecil. UKM Masters dan NCC telah menjadikan UKM antara `venue` pertandingan yang semakin dikenali oleh peserta catur tempatan mahupun luar negara. Jika tiada halangan, UKM bakal menjayakan Kejohanan Catur Pesta Konvo UKM pada 7 Ogos 2010 seperti yang dirancangkan oleh pihak secretariat Konvo UKM. Jika tiada masalah, GM tournament bakal dilaksanakan pada bulan September! Banyak lagi idea-idea yang pasti dilaksanakan juga seperti Kejohanan Catur Alumni UKM dan sebagainya J

Tolong ceritakan hubungan anda dengan pihak UKM?

Sehingga jawapan ini diberikan, saya masih lagi berstatus pelajar UKM dan juga bekerja secara kontrak di salah sebuah institut penyelidikan bioteknologi di bawah pentadbiran UKM.

Apakah ada program2 catur lain oleh pihak UKM pada masa akan datang?

Ya, sudah tentu. Pelbagai idea telah dilontarkan kepada saya. Kini, hanya masa menentukan. Terima kasih dan saya berharap pihak UKM dan anda akan lterus menganjurkan program2 catur bagi memeriahkan sukan catur Malaysia.

Terima kasih kerana sudi untuk memberi kerjasama dalam sesi temuramah ini.

Terima-kasih juga kepada saudara Hairul kerana sudi menjayakan interview ini.

Tan Khai Boon our new National Master (NM)!

2010-06-20T10:00:00.010+08:00

The last round top board encounter saw Tan Khai Boon face Nik Ahmad Farouqi. Tan only need a draw to secure the National Master (NM) title and a place in the Men Team for the 2010 Olympiad in Khanty Mansiysk, Russia this October! If Nik win, he will get the NM title and a place in the Men team.

Tan Khai Boon - Nik Ahmad Farouqi
National Championship, Round 9, 20.6.2010

1. c4 e5 2.Nc3 d6 3.Nf3 Nc6 4.d4 exd4 5.Nxd4 g6

Tan Khai Boon (left) vs Nik Ahmad Farouqi : Table 1, Final Round

6. Nxc6 bxc6 7.g3 Bg7 8.Bg2 Ne7 9.0-0 Be6 10.Qd3 0-0 11.Bg5 Rb8 12.b3 12.Bxe7?! is bad because after 12...Qxe7 13.Bxc6 Rxb2 black double bishop will give him a strong initiative 12...f6!?

Nik divert from theory. Theory give 12...c5 13. Qd2 Bh8 14.Rad1 f6 15.Bh6 Rf7 13.Be3 c5 14.Rad1 Kh8 15.Rfe1 Qc8 16.Bd2 Bf5 Quite a strange move because black invite white to play 17.e4 17.e4 Bg4 Now Nik's intention is clear, he provoke Tan to play move like 18.f3 which weaken white's king side pawn formation 18.f3 Be6 19.Ne2 Nc6 20.Bc3 Ne5 21.Qd2 f5?! This move look to aggressive. According to Nik, Khai Boon offer him a draw here but he declined. 22.f4 Ng4 23.Bxg7+ Kxg7 24.h3 Nf6 25.e5 dxe5 26.fxe5

A critical moment 26...Nh5?! probably Black should try 26...Ne4!? if 27.Bxe4 fxe4 black have strong pressure on h3 27.Bf3 now black position is getting worse. White is threatening 28.Bxh5 27.Bf3 Kh8 28.Bxh5 gxh5

29.Qg5 29.Qh6! is stronger because after 29...Qe8 protecting the h5 pawn white have 30.Nf4! threatening 31.Ng6+ 29...Qe8 30.Qd2 Qe8 31.Nf4 Rb6 32.Rd3 Bf7??

32...like it or not black should try 32...Qf7 keep blocking the e6 square although white still win after 32.Rd8 Rxd8 33.Qxd8+ Qg8 34.Qf6 Qg7 35.Nxh5 Qxf6 36.Nxf6 33.e6 Bg6 34.e7 Rg8 35.Rd8 h6 36.Qxh6+ Bh7 37.Rxe8 1-0 Black resign and Tan Khai Boon is our new National Master (NM) !

Talented Nithyalakshmi

Nithyalakshmi Sivanesan is all smiles after winning her final round game in under 20 minutes!

National Championship, Round 8, 19.6.2010

1. e4 d6 2. d4 Nf6 3. Nc3 c6 4. h3 b5 5. Bd3 Nbd7 f8 6. Nf3 e5 7. dxe5 dxe5 8. a4 b4 9. Ne2 Qc7 10. O-O Be7 11. Ng3 Nc5 12. Re1 O-O 13. Bc4 h6 14. a5 Rb8 15. Bd2 Rd8 16. Qc1 Ne6 16... Be6 looks like a viable alternative after 17. Bxe6 Nxe6 17. Nf5 Bf8 18. Nxh6+ 18. Bxh6 also a good option for e.g 18...gxh6 19. Nxh6+ Bxh6 (19... Kh7 20. Nxf7 Qxf7 21. Bxe6 followed by Ng5+ forking black's king and queen. (19... Kh8 20. Nxe5) 20. Qxh6 with the initiative 18... gxh6 19. Bxh6 Kh7 20. Ng5+ another option is 20. Bxf8 Rxf8 21. Bxe6 fxe6 ( if 21...Bxe6 then white have 22.Qg5 Nd7 23.Re3 with strong attack) 20... Nxg5 20... Kxh6? 21. Nxe6+ 21. Bxg5 Black is a piece up but white's have a dangerous initiative. Bg7 22. f4 Be6 23. Bd3 Kg8 24. f5 Bc8 25. Bh6 Qd6 26. Qg5 White has a mate threat Qf8 27. Re3 27... Nh7 27... Kh7! is probably stronger 28. Qg3

28... Rd6? Black missed 28... Kh8! and white's attack will fizzle out after 29. Bxg7+ Qxg7 29. Bxg7 Qxg7 30. Qf2 Now white have a strong threat - Rg3 Rh6? Again 30... Kh8 have to be play although white still have the upper hand after 31. Rg3 Qf8 32. Qxa7 Rb7 31. Rg3 Ng5 White is winning now but ...32. Qxa7? white should have played 32. Qe3 f6 33. Rg4 Threatening 34.h4! with the knight on g5

32... Rb7?? However black return the favor. Black missed a forced draw with 32... Nxh3+!! would bring relief 33. Rxh3 Rxh3 34. Qxb8 Qg3 35. Qxc8+ Kh7 36. Rf1 Qh4 37. gxh3 Qg3+ 38. Kh1 Qxh3+ 39. Kg1 Qg3+ 40. Kh1 Qh3+ 41. Kg1 Qg3+ 42. Kh1 Qh3+ draw by repetition. 33. Qe3 f6 34. a6 Rb8 35. Ra5 35. Rg4! with the idea of 36.h4 next is stronger 35... Kh8 36. Bc4 Rh4 37. Rxe5!

37...fxe5? This end the game quicker. Black can try 37... Bxa6 38. Bxa6 Qc7 39. Rxg5 Qxe5 and pray for the best 38. Rxg5 Qd7 39. Qg3 1-0 Black resign because after 39. .. Qh7 40. Qxe5 is decisive

2010-06-19T18:45:00.001+08:00

Pang Hwei Yih lost to Fong Mi Yen. This puts Fong at 7/8 still at least half a point a head of the pack going into the last round. Ali vs Amira game is not finished yet.

Mohd Nabil Azman Hisham - Tan Khai Boon : 0-1

2010-06-19T15:12:00.025+08:00

Nabil Azman Hisham (left) vs Tan Khai Boon

Mohd Nabil Azman Hisham - Tan Khai Boon
National Championship, Round 8, 19.6.2010

Analysed by Centaur (Hairulov+Rybka 4)

1.d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 c5 3. d5 e6 4. c4 exd5 5. cxd5 d6 6. Nc3 g6 The Modern Benoni. This probably show that Tan Khai Boon is playing for a win because Modern Benoni is quite a risky opening. Black's permit white to have a strong central pawns majority but black will unbalanced the position later.
7. e4 Bg7 8.Be2 0-0 9.0-0 Re8

10.Qc2 a6 11.Be3 Theory recommend 11.a4.

The idea of 11.a4 is to stop black's queen side expansion with b5

Nabil's choice 11.Be3 seems strange because usually white play Be3-Qd2 straight away against black Bg7 fianchetto formation. The problem is white's queen have already move to c2. 11...b5 12.Rad1

...Khai Boon using quite a long time for his 12th move and he has used 50 minutes so far! The obvious move is 12...b5 13.Na4 Nxe4 winning a pawn but wait!.....white actually can play 13...e5!? and if 14.bxc3 exf6! with wild game.

Azman Hisham (standing) watching his son play....

12...Nbd7 Khai Boon probably saw that 12...b5 is too messy and choose to develop his piece. The problem is he has spent nearly 45 minutes just to play his 12th move. 13.Nd2 black is threatening 13...b5 and 14.e5 didn't work anymore because black's Nbd7 cover the e5 square. 13...Qe7 Black add pressure against white e4 pawn. 14.Bg5 h6 15.Bh4

It seems that black can win the e4 pawn after 15...g5 16.Bg3 b4 17.Na4 Nxe4 18.Nxe4 Qxe4 19.Qxe4 Rxe4 winning a pawn but actually white can get it back after 20.Bd3 Re8 21.Bxd6 with a better position. Nabil is really a good tactician! 15...Nb6 16.Rfe1 Bd7 17.f4 Qf8 18.Bf3 b4 19.Ne2 Rac8 20.Nc4 Ba4 21.b3 Nxc4 22.Qxc4 Bb5 23.Qc2 h5 24.h3

24...a5 25.Kh2 Nd7 26.g4 hxg4 27.Bxg4 Rc7 28.Bg3 f5 29.exf5 gxf5 30.Bxf5 Bxe2 31.Bg6??

A terrible blunder. Nabil should have maintain the pressure with 31.Be6 but probably he try to win on time because Khai Boon have about 3 minutes left. Nabil probably forget that there's 30 seconds increment for each move so Khai Boon can recover and add more time. Bxd1 32.Qxd1 Rxe1 33.Qxe1 Nf6

Now it easy for black. He is a rook up and white's attack has fizzle out. 34.Qe6+ Kh8 35.f5 Re7 36.Qxd6 Re2+ 37.Kg1 Qxd6 38.Bxd6 Ne4 39.Bf4 Bd4+ 40.Kh1 Nf2+ 41.Kg2 Nd3+ 42.Kf3 Rf2+ 0-1 ~~Black resign~~. White resign. A tragic finish for the young boy.

Day 3

Entrance to the tournament venue

Yeoh Li Tian (right) defend brilliantly an ending where he got a knight+ pawn against NM Edward's Knight + two pawns . I even heard GM Ziaur Rahman praise Li Tian defending skill! Li Tian managed to draw the game after playing for about 4 hour!

Ahmad Fadzil Nayan draw a rook ending against the top seed- Loo Swee Leong (right)

National Junior Master (NJM) Tariq Amru draw a different color bishop against Nabil Azman (right)

NM Kamal Arifin - Taulani Tukiran (right) also reach a different color bishop ending. They play nearly 4 hours just to split the point !

Syahmina Zulkafli(left) beat Fong Min Yen in round 6

Who said this year National championship is not strong enough? just have a look at Razali Ng6 (red circle)
