By no means a pre-tournament favorite at 2106, Flores became the first expert to capture the state championship since Bill Robinson in 1982. Defending champion Steve Greanias tii with Alan Brownstein, Bora Yagiz & Roderick Brown for 2nd-5th. (See box next page for complete list of prizewinners.) Catherine Clark, of Alexandria, was elected VCF President at the annual business meeting, held Saturday morning prior to the first round. Outgoing President Mark Johnson directed the tournament. The penultimate round game between Flores and former (1993) champion Macon Shibut stands out as the critical juncture in this year’s title race. To that point Shibut had looked to be pulling away from the pack, standing alone at 5-0 including wins over Greanias and two-time champion Rusty Potter. Flores was a half point behind and scheduled for the black pieces. However, in this battle of editors (Flores oversees Tidewater Chess News, Shibut Virginia Chess) the new champion experienced no real trouble in the open- ing, gradually took command in the middlegame, and wrapped up the point with incisive endgame play.

    AMERICAN CHESS-NUTS A COLLECTION OF PROBLEMS BY COMPOSERS OF THE WESTERN WORLD. EDITED BY E. B. COOK, W. R. HENRY, AND C. A. GILBERG. [ 1868 ] “Sweetest nut hath sourest rind.” An Electronic Edition Anders Thulin, Malmö · preliminary version AMERICAN CHESS-NUTS INTRODUCTION he most appropriate prelude to an opening of the Nuts, seems to be an account of how these leaves have grown and borne their fruit. T In February, 1859, the writer received a very interesting anonymous letter, calculated to excite the desire of becoming better acquainted with its author. “I do not know,” said the unknown, “whether you are a collector of Chess Curiosities. I hope you are not. And yet, I inconsis- tently enclose title and specimen pages of a Chess book that was neither printed nor published, and of which the only copy is to be found in my Chess library (eighty volumes, with prospects of a speedy increase to one hundred and thirty—all modern works of practical value.) This work is intended to consist of a pretty complete collection of such problems as have appeared in newspapers, etc. It now contains about four thousand positions; but whether I shall have the patience to make any great addition to this number, I cannot undertake to say, although my notation is concise enough to enable me to copy in one evening sometimes as many as a hundred problems and their solutions.” The title page referred to was in print, and read : “Chess-Nuts; a Collection of Problems and End Games.” In the Correspondence of the Problem Department of the Chess Monthly was inserted a notice to “Cryptograph, New York,” in which he was told that the writer “would be delighted to see —— at his residence.” This led to a second missive, signed by the real name of the mysterious correspondent.

  • Grandmaster Opening Preparation Jaan Ehlvest
    Grandmaster Opening Preparation By Jaan Ehlvest Quality Chess www.qualitychess.co.uk Preface This book is about my thoughts concerning opening preparation. It is not a strict manual; instead it follows my personal experience on the subject of openings. There are many opening theory manuals available in the market with deep computer analysis – but the human part of the process is missing. This book aims to fill this gap. I tried to present the material which influenced me the most in my chess career. This is why a large chapter on the Isolated Queen’s Pawn is present. These types of opening positions boosted my chess understanding and helped me advance to the top. My method of explaining the evolution in thinking about the IQP is to trace the history of games with the Tarrasch Defence, from Siegbert Tarrasch himself to Garry Kasparov. The recommended theory moves may have changed in the 21st century, but there are many positional ideas that can best be understood by studying “ancient” games. Some readers may find this book answers their questions about which openings to play, how to properly use computer evaluations, and so on. However, the aim of this book is not to give readymade answers – I will not ask you to memorize that on move 23 of a certain line you must play ¤d5. In chess, the ability to analyse and arrive at the right conclusions yourself is the most valuable skill. I hope that every chess player and coach who reads this book will develop his or her understanding of opening preparation.

  • Npcc Fall Open Turns
    The PENNSWOODPUSHER November 2003 A Quarterly Publication of the Pennsylvania State Chess Federation "The Ideal Socialism" Bill Ruth, the Ruth Opening, and Bill Ruth − Isidor Turover [D00] Correspondence Chess Philadelphia−Washington telephone match, November 25, 1922 1.d4 ¤f6 2.¥g5 In recent years the opening variations 1.d4 d5 2.Bg5 and 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5, commonly known as the Trompowsky opening after the XIIIIIIIIY Brazilian chess master Octavio Siqueiro F. Trompowsky, have become 9rsnlwqkvl-tr0 popular with many chessplayers at all levels of playing ability. The chief proponent of the Trompowsky, or the "Tromp" as fans call it, 9zppzppzppzpp0 during the past decade and a half has been the talented British Grandmaster Julian Hodgson, who uses it as a mainstay of his opening 9-+-+-sn-+0 repertoire. 9+-+-+-vL-0 Grandmaster Joe Gallagher, writing in his book The Trompowsky (The Chess Press, 1998) suggests renaming the Trompowsky opening to 9-+-zP-+-+0 reflect Hodgson's role in promoting its use at the highest level, 9+-+-+-+-0 although even Gallagher admits "the Hodgson-Trompowsky Attack is such a mouthful that I fear it will never happen." What Gallagher and 9PzPP+PzPPzP0 others are overlooking is that the opening has another name for another popularizer, at least in the United States. The talented and free-thinking 9tRN+QmKLsNR0 Philadelphia chess master and Pennsylvania State Chess Champion William Allan Ruth (1886-1975) first began surprising opponents with xiiiiiiiiy 2...d5 3.¤d2 c6 4.¤gf3 £b6 5.¥xf6 exf6 6.b3 ¥b4 7.e3 ¥f5 the second move Queen's Bishop sortie in the early 1920's.
