Schacksnack har en ny omröstning längst upp i högerspalten. Frågan gäller huvuvida Gideon Ståhlberg, Ulf Andersson eller Nils Grandelius är att betraktas som Sveriges genom tiderna starkaste schackspelare. Det finns ju lite olika måttstockar att beräkna detta genom till exempel ratingprestationer, hårt motstånd över tid eller hur vederbörande har bidraget till schackets utveckling. Beroende på perspektiv och hur insatt man är i denna komplexa fråga kan svaren skifta. Vad säger Schacksnacks läsare?
Sverigemästarklassen och övriga grupper arrangeras i Uppsala 27 juni - 6 juli. Tio spelare kämpar om Sverigemästartiteln och dessa är i ratingordning: GM Platon Galperin, IM Isak Storme, IM Jung Min Seo, GM Erik Blomqvist, IM Martin Lokander, GM Tiger Hillarp Persson., IM Milton Pantzar, IM Hampus Sörensen GM Jonny Hector och IM Axel Falkevall. SM-gruppen är i år stark och öppen så nästan vem helst kan ta hem segern men det skulle inte vara osannolikt om GM Jonny Hector avgår med segern. I SM-sammanhang brukar gedigen erfarenhet väga mycket tyngre än tillfälliga ratingtoppar. Mästar-Elit: IM Michael Wiedenkeller, IM Ludvig Carlsson, IM William Olsson, FM Eric Thörn, IM Tommy Andersson, IM Bengt Lindberg, FM Joar Östlund, FM Alexander Ström-Engdahl, Andreas Landgren och Harald Ljung. Mitt stalltips är att FM Joar Östlund som är en starkt utvecklande spelare kommer att avancera till Sverigemästarklassen.
