hmmmm I dunno I have some of his book and yes he was important and very much a part of the hyper modern movement.. I just didnt think the book was THAT deserved, but what do I know?! I liked Kasparov's book on himself part 1 1973-1985 and maybe 1 or 2 more I am to tired to remember as of now! Lets g...

I agree, in principal!! Every choice you make, more roads open up and others close....it has NOTHING to do with a diety, or "god" but it is YOU that makes those decisions for yourself! Even tho I'm still young, I have also made choices that have shaped my future....there is no turning back on the ro...

Hey all :) I have been following all the posts and rants and things going on in the forum for a month now...and to be honest, Im worried... Chess is suppose to be a competitive art, not fighitng, arguing , fights with the admin no matter if correct or not...I know for myself its pretty messed up to ...

iamachessstudent

TY David, good to now you are alive and kicking

Brian... lol whats the use >! LOL

Joshua

Rama. Its commonly referred to as the KALSIHNIKOV Variation... 1.e4, c5; 2.Nf3, Nc6; 3.d4, cd4; 4.Nd4, e5!? I have played it before as well and the variations are wide and varied, but black does not have to bring out the queen so early... Its closely related to the SVENISHIKOV Variation also (1. e4,...

iamachessstudent

Ok guys

ROUND 2 BOARD 1 is up and in the games section!
again, sorry for the delay!:)

iamachessstudent

hey all!!

OMG I didnt even check my e mails!
Ill look at them now
What will i have to do ..I need to get this
IM SO SORRY:(
geeeez

Joshua

iamachessstudent

Hey Mario! In response to the 1st game and your sacrifice 12...Ne4?! (!?) I think White can maintain a very, very slight edge with: 13. fxe4 Qh4+; 14. Bf2 Qxe4+; and now only 15. Qe2! can give White a hope of an edge...a very interesting sacrifice!! after 15...Bxd5; then 16. cxd5, Qxd5 its a VERY sl...

iamachessstudent

Continuing my annotations to some of my games, I have selected a pair of games that feature the Kings Indian Defense, Saemisch Variation for your reading pleasure:) I hope you enjoy the games, as I think both are very instructive! [White "josh [Black "cjs150"] [Result "1-0"] In this game, which feat...

iamachessstudent

Good questions and Ill try and answer right now! In the first case I had said I planned on playing 24.Bd3 ....after some analysis it seems that there are 2 moves that black can play in which he really equalizes...the first is the simple 24...Nc6! White really has no good followup and some natural mo...

iamachessstudent

Thank you!

I do keep .pgn and .cbh copies if the games i analyze and play...
I will be adding more to the forum this weekend, wins, losses and draws, so stay tuned!

Thanks again for the very nice words..im flattered and glad that you like!

Joshua

iamachessstudent

Here are two games which I played that did not turn out as I had hoped! True, they were draws but as you will see in the annotations, I had hoped for allot more. A good adage goes "you cant always get what you want, but you get what you need" ( an old Stones song I think :) ) and that was true here....

iamachessstudent

Im going to vote for B or F also but a poll among all th0ese in the tournament is the democratic way , if you dont get a resounding "yes" to any of the above by individual votes! A good p0int as mentioned, when the Zapper Reports are done; EVERYONE is fair game , It is not in a bad or hurtful way an...

iamachessstudent

HEY CLIFF!!!

so, so good to hear from you man!

OUTSTANDING job as usual with this post:)
TY VM

Joshua

iamachessstudent

I have done that also!

As beautiful, tranqil and peaceful as it might be..I had to stop because I was losing games in under 15 moves by missing simple, simple things!

So, thought as much as i enjoy the moonlight; NEVER EVER PLAY CHESS UNDER IT :0

Joshua

iamachessstudent

Hello again all! his posting I am also presenting 2 games, but both are painful losses to me against the same opponent; one with the black pieces, the other with the White pieces. I have been objective as possible while commenting and annotating, and I hope you enjoy these as much as the first 2 gam...

iamachessstudent

Brian, Brian, Brian LOL
My poor little confused monkey:)

I will be posting a couple more games in a short time, in a separate forum post..so you can differentiate the games : )
Thanks for those that have supported me and encouraged:)

Joshua

iamachessstudent

THANK YOU!

thanks again!

Joshua

iamachessstudent

lol Brian!
You say U win i like to go into more detail..

iamachessstudent

I thought I'd share a couple of games I had played on another site a couple years back that deals with the Classical Nimzo-Indian; Central Variation ...both games were well played and followed each other up to a point...then the real fun starts! I have checked the annotations for spelling errors and...

iamachessstudent

How is that site to play on Ketchup?

iamachessstudent

Something that can also help LOTs when you archive and keep track of your games is the ECO CODE! some sites I played on will include that once your games are finished and it is SO much easier to isolate and get those specific openings to your games when you have that ECO CODE. This site does not giv...

iamachessstudent

Fishcer Random NEVER ughhhhhh I'm so fascinated by modern openings and unlike David, I embrace them and try to make them better...but wow that is allot of work and time.. Im starting to slow down also, and categorize my losses and wins by openings to see where things an go better... There is always ...

Shelby Lyman really made his claim to fame when he hosted the World Chess Championship Show for PBS during the Karpov-Kasparov matches of the 80s n 90s He has guests like Jimmy Sherwin, Sammy Reshevsky, Ilya Gurevich and Edmar Mednis ( one of my favorites post after his death ) their poor lil comput...

iamachessstudent

Ummm ok

so much for my advice.....

iamachessstudent

IT can be very confusing out there, all the electronic media that we have now AND the actual books that come out at seemingly the worst times for our budgets ad time, but this is what I do: I have my set opening repertoire...these are what I have played for years and have devoted so many hours to im...

iamachessstudent

Enjoy yourself Hans

Be safe!!

Joshua

iamachessstudent

Id think if Brian is offering, he can do the job so lets give him a shot!
Ill help in anyway I can and im curious as to the scores as well1

joshua

iamachessstudent

wow guys this is a hella subject and has every one rather emotional... I think, to be blunt: what's done is done; regardless the decision Greg has made it ! If we don't like it, we just wont play next year and if we agree, we play....maybe that works for some?! I don't know but WOW very controversia...

iamachessstudent

yea!!
Browne, Seriwan, Fischer, Byrne, Benjamin and Wolff
to
Nakamura UGHHHH

iamachessstudent

Sure did!

ischer vs Spassky in Iceland.....seems like SOOOO long ago and I guess it was, but was the boom time for Chess, especially american Chess!

iamachessstudent

Good adviceI try and do that, tho once in a while, I feel bad for not letting ppl play because of the time outs...maybe they had a power outage, a blown Pc but Id have to agree, try and exclude them I suppose!!

Joshsua

iamachessstudent

David was very eloquent and what he says is very true! I have done the dame, my moves already picked out and I don't double check..I just make the move! I know Mike from my uncles games, and Jeff thought very highly of Mike and they played many game.. it is definitively no disgrace to lose to Mike! ...

iamachessstudent

hehe
umm no

your 40th move u played 40. Re3 and you could have played 40. Qxd6 and on his move 40, black would not have a check

, unlike in the game !

thats all
