  • Chess Book List
    A treat for you all to start the New Year. Happy New Year to you all and I hope some of these books make you better chess players. Here is the next book list I told you about a few weeks ago. All are books on the Opening. All prices are in Canadian funds and postage will be added to your order. Any payment method is acceptable but please note that if you wish to use your credit card you can do so via PayPal. To do this I will send an invoice to you and you will follow the instructions sent to you from PayPal. Paying this way is quick and easy but it will cost you 4% more. This is the fee Paypal charges me for using their services. A personal cheque or money order will not cost you anything more than the actual book costs plus postage. As always first come-first served so if you see something you want please order promptly to avoid disappointment. If you ordered something from the first list I will combine shipping to save you some postage. Please note that # 1 to # 134 have been already offered and sent to all CCCA members during January. If you have email and did not receive these messages it is because I do not have your address or the address I have on file for you is no longer functioning. I suggest you contact me so I can correct this situation. My email is [email protected]. Please note that I added # 135 to 150 just so you email members can have something new to look at.

  • OTHER QUEEN's PAWN OPENINGS They Start: 1. D2-D4 XABCDEFGH

Xabcdefgh In this book we look mainly at the Dutch Defence and openings where White plays d4 but not c4. WHITE SAYS: (If he's playing d4 but not c4): I don't care what your favourite defence is. I'll get in my favourite opening first and see what you can do against it. Go ahead and make my day. BLACK SAYS: (If he plays the Dutch Defence): You want the Queen side? Fine. Then I'll go ahead and take the King side. Your King had better watch out or he'll end up dead meat. XABCDEFGHY 8rsnlwq-trk+( 7zppzp-vl-zpp' The Classical Dutch. 6-+-zppsn-+& Black's plans are to play e6-e5 or to 5+-+-+p+-% attack on the King side with moves like 4-+-+-+-+$ Qd8-e8, Qe8-h5, g7-g5, g5-g4. White 3+-+-+-+-# will try to play e2-e4, open the e-file 2-+-+-+-+" and attack Black's weak e-pawn. For this reason he will usually develop his 1+-+-+-+-!

White will aim to control or occupy the e5 square with a 1+-+-+-+-! Knight while trying to break with e2-e4.

  • An Investigation Into the Openings Used by Top 100 Chess Players
    ISSN:1306-3111 e-Journal of New World Sciences Academy 2007, Volume: 2, Number: 2 Article Number: B0001 HEALTH SCIENCES ENGLISH (Abstract: TURKISH) Ramiz Arabacı Received: January 2007 University of Uludag Accepted: April 2007 [email protected] 0H © 2007 www.newwsa.com Bursa-Türkiye AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE OPENINGS USED BY TOP 100 CHESS PLAYERS ABSTRACT The aim of study is an investigation into the openings used by top 100 chess players. The chess games (n=2046) that 70 players, who took part in Top 100 list, played during January-April 2006 period were examined. The frequencies and percentages of the openings used were calculated. Separating the chess players into five different age groups, the frequency values and percentages of the openings they used, and the winning, defeating, and drawing were calculated using the Chi-Square Test and evaluated statistically. In conclusion, it can be claimed that Top 100 players prefer Semi-Open Games most; the winning, defeating, and drawing percentages change depending on the increasing age and the kinds of openings played; and the best opening is Caro-Kann for Whites, French Defence for Blacks, and Petrof’s Defence for a draw. Keywords: Chess Players, Opening, Sports, Tactics TOP 100’DE YER ALAN SATRANÇ OYUNCULARININ AÇILIŞLARININ İNCELENMESİ ÖZET Çalışmanın amacı, top 100’de yeralan satranç oyuncularının uygulamış oldukları açılışları incelemektir. Top 100’de yer alan 70 satranç oyuncusunun oynamış oldukları Ocak-Nisan 2006 tarihleri arasındaki satranç maçları incelendi. Satranç oyuncularının ortalama yaş ve ELO hesaplandı, ülkelere göre sporcu sayısı ve uygulanan açılışların frekansları ve % değerleri çıkartıldı. Satranç oyuncuları 5 farklı yaş grubuna ayrılarak, uygulamış oldukları açılaş türleri ile galibiyet, mağlübiyet ve beraberliklerin frekansları ve % değerleri çıkartılarak istatistiksel olarak Chi-Square Testi ile değerlendirildi.
