FIDE GRAND PRIX. BAKU
       Hello, all chess players, chess fans and all other people that I'm glad to see here every day!

Here is a good opportunity for all you to enjoy a great game of chess played by the very best players in the world. I'm talking about FIDE Grand Prix, which was a novelty that FIDE introduced in 2008.
It is a series of 6 tournaments in 2008-09, which are going to be played at each continent to promote CHESS.
It's always fun to watch games played by professionals, but in chess, even more than in any other sport,
watching, analyzing and understanding these "top" games is crucial for improving your own game.
So, take some time and go over their games. Think why they played the way they did. And, perhaps, you can find better moves?
