Schaak Groningen

    Goed, Stevie Wonder en James Brown ontbraken zaterdag bij de loting voor het 32ste internationale schaaktoernooi Groningen. Maar voor het overige heet Johan Zwanepol niet alleen een groot aantal internationale topschakers naar de Martinihal gezogen, zijn Stichting Schaak Groningen had ook een lotingsritueel bedacht dat zeer enerverend uitpakte. Al was het alleen al omdat sommige grootmeesters zich er haast een gebroken been aan struikelden. Maar liefst 54 wereldtoppers zoren samen voor het - in de breedte - sterkst bezette toernooi ter wereld gehouden. Zwanepol was er in geslaagd het gros van hen bij de loting te laten opdraven. Natuurlijk, Robert Hübner liet verstek gaan, want die doet niet aan lotingen, en de Nederlander Loek van Wely was er evenmin omdat hij nu eenmaal op pad is. Of hij is op weg naar een toernooi of hij komt er net vandaan. Of, zoals zaterdag, een combinatie van beide mogelijkheden. Het groninger toernooi doet tevens dienst als kwalificatie toernooi voor de wereldtitel schaken in de rebelse PCA-versie, die van Garry Kasparov. Als rode draad door de openingsceremonie liep dan ook het bekende liedje 'welles' (Kasparov is wereldkampioen) 'nietes' (want Karpov is dat al namens de FIDE) dat in de komende tijd ongetwijfeld alleen nog maar luider zal klinken. Toch bleef die discussie op de achtergrond door het spektakel dat zich deze middag, soms onbedoeld, afspeelde. Daar was het melkflesje, dat door een nog vrij verse vader al meedrummend voor de voeten van de zingende gastvrouw Hanneke Kappen werd geworpen - de baby kreeg vanzelfsprekend de schuld. En daar was de lotingsmachine.
