[This issue has just been emailed out]
The big news is I managed to win a small open clear with 6/7 which was welcome news after the relative disaster in January at the Perenyi Memorial.
Included in this issue
820 games, 211 annotated. Almasi, Polgar, Erdos, Rapport and Prohaszka played in the Gibraltar Tradewise Open where Short eventually won overall first. Most of the annotated games feature the white repertoires of Almasi,Z and Gyimesi,Z. In the theory section, Grunfeld games from TWIC 896-899 are checked and conclusions drawn.

International News
-Aeroflot Open(Balogh, Csaba 5/9.)
-Gibraltar Open
Veteran Nigel Short won with 8/10 after tying Hou Yifan and winning the tiebreak match. Almasi and Polgar finished with 7/10 while Erdos was part of a large group with 6.5.
Theory
-Grunfeld games from TWIC 896-899
White has shown no threatening ideas against the Grunfeld and most wins have been in mismatches. Black has scored excellently in the exchange variation while Avrukh's g3-10.Re1 has hit a brick wall(10...a5=).
Player Profiles-Almasi,Z with white 1.e4
-Gyimesi,Z with white 1.d4
Almasi is a high profile player with an aggressive attacking style with a sound positional foundation, This profile shows he is also a fabulous endgame player too. Gyimesi is not so well known outside of europe but is a strong endgame player amongst other things.
