Good regular online game annotations

I wonder if anyone can help with this one. I am looking a site that provides regular in-depth annotated games (one a week maybe). I don't mind if it is a free or subscription as I am more than willing to pay good written analysis. Hopefully not informant style analysis but ones with written english commentary. The kind of thing I am after would in fact be similar to Yasser Sierwans monthly game column on chesscafe but on a weekly basis instead of monthly basis.

Any help or pointers will be very gratefully received.

Thanks onyx2006, I'm checking out that link now. Although it seems more like a games collection site than a weekly feed, it'll still be useful.

Maybe there are no chess services that do a weekly annotated game feed?

http://www.chessvibes.com/ has GM Erwin l'Ami analyzing his games - the first one was just posted - they also have a feed - not sure how regular this will be though.

Thanks TommyC, that one was a new site to me. I think between you and onyx there is some great games to be found.

I found another 'weekly' chessgame at andrewmartinchessacademy.com

Which although probably aimed at a higher level will still be useful. I'm copying the text, transferring it to wordpad and then doing ctrl+u twice to get rid of the underlining that comes with each move.

Although I collect the informators in books and CD format, I cannot stand the reams of wordless variations that come with each move. Hopefully one day it will be of use.

Thanks again.

You're welcome. I think it's the best chess blog out there - better than chessbase even.
