Chess Thread 02-23-2019
Neil Plays Chess In the Park, 1972
Pic Note Background:
25th May 1972, Neil Diamond, born 1941, American singer and songwriter playing chess in Kensington Gardens, before a European tour. Lady is Joy Anderson, 25, of Kensington,a member of his fan club. The chess set was presented to Diamond by his British fan club.From what I can see, the pieces appear to be a metallic version of the Peter Ganine Gothic design. I don't think the Ganine sets and boards are still being manufactured, but they're quite common on ebay. Also, it's the only set I would ever consider owning other than the standard Staunton pieces. I don't know, something about them, they just look sort of badass. As always, the chess/dress pr0n thread is an open thread, so there is no such thing as an off-topic comment.
Easier Problem - White To Play (911) Yes, this is obviously a won position for White. So the question is, in how few moves can the mate be forced, and what moves are they? Goal: White can force mate in 2 movies
Hint: White's first move is not a check

Lurker 'Spade' has a request:In the 1970s when my dad got his PhD my grandparents gave him a chess table as a gift. The squares are inlaid different colors of wood, with his initials on the side. As he's getting up in age and my parents are in that mood, he gifted it to me (I play chess, and we have the same initials) and it now resides in my library. Only issue with the table is that after decades of use and moving a couple have popped up and one cracked. May have to get it repaired. Oh, and there's nowhere to actually put captured pieces. But that's not the main issue overall.I couldn't find any 'Isle of Lewis' type chess pieces of that size, they're all for smaller boards, so I thought I'd throw this request out the Horde and see if anything can be turned up.
My major issue is that the squares are 3.5 x 3.5 inches. My grandmother made large ceramic chess pieces for my dad but those have long since broken. As a kid we mostly used regular small chess pieces, which look silly. So now I need pieces of an appropriate size that also look good. What I really want is a set of the Lewis Chessmen, but I'm afraid all available ones might be too small. I found some sets that seemed to be the appropriate size (like, 6" tall kings here), but I kinda don't want to spent like $500 on pieces.
So if maybe you could post up a question about this in the post somebody might have an idea of what I should get that will look good, is playable, and isn't going to eat too much into my gun budget.
More Challenging Problem - Black To Play (916) Goal: Not a quick mate, but Black can get an overwhelming positional advantage
Hint: A rook sac at the appropriate time is key

___________ Note: that cryptic line of letters and numbers you see underneath each board diagram is a representation of the position in what is known as "Forsyth-Edwards Notation", or F.E.N. It's actually readable by humans. Most computer applications nowadays can read FEN, so those of you who may want to study the position, you can copy the line of FEN and paste into your chess app and it should automatically recreate the position on its display board. Or, Windows users can just "triple click" on it and the entire line will be highlighted so you can copy and paste it into your chess app. ___________ So that about wraps it up for this week.

Pieces are under $100 and are about 5 inches for the king.
Not ideal for 3.5 X 3.5 but should look presentable for a low price.

Melania - perhaps the one and only naturalized immigrant likely to vote for Trump in 2020?
Anyway -- quick recap of Paris/France week 15. Crowd estimates as low as 10,000 as high as 200,000. So there's apparently the same fake news issue in that country as here. Couldn't watch much today. Probably have a better recap by tomorrow.
Best protest sign? 'Borgne (French word meaning 'one-eyed') to be Free'.
Why? Because the French police have been targeting protestors in the face, blowing out human eyeballs in the process. But socialism. It'll be better this time.

1. ... Qh6+
2. Kg1 Rf1+
3. Qxf1 Bxd4+
so far, I think this *must* be right because otherwise white can check. Now there are two choices for white. Either Q or R must block and then black has Qxg3+ but I don't see a mate ... blocking with Q loses it with check so:
4. Rf2 Qxg3+
Now white has several choices:
5. Qg2 Bxf2+
6. Kf1 Bh6 wins the WQ
Or:
5. Kh1 Qxh4+
6. Rh2 Qxe4+
Now white can block with Q or R but with Q then there is a Q exchange and black will pin the R with his white B so
7. Rg2 Bb7 seems winning but W has Q checks.
Finally:
5. Bg2 Bh6 seems winning and W has no checks.

Zappa did a tour where he encouraged all of the female fans to throw their underwear on stage so that they could make a quilt from them at the end of the Tour.
There's some live tracks out there where you can hear him do the whole spiel and then tell a story about a particularly offensive pair of knickers they received.

Yes and no. Red Sox picked it up by accident when it became a popular 7th Inning Stretch song. They played random shit and then everyone sang along to that one and it became a tradition.
Then Diamond said oh I wrote that about Caroline Kennedy when she was about six. Which is mildly creepy. But the Kennedy connection had never come out before it became a Red Sox tradition.

It appears that Black can take either Knight with check and it's still mate the following move. Black can take the rook but it's mate with Qb8.What about Qc6 ? Looks like W has to take the Q without mating. So mate in 3.

We're all basically o.k.

He comes around when it's time to eat the TG dinner.

If Black tries Qc7 (hoping white takes with Rook : Stalemate). But White takes with Nxc7 checkmate.

No.
A neighbor from Russia, here over 20 years now, says all the time, "what the hell is wrong with Americans who constantly put down Trump? He has done more for them than Obama did in 8 years." And many other similar things.
And he has other Russian friends that say the same thing. They love them some Trump.

Skip had a mate in 3 a while back, which looked right to me ... but OM didn't say anything so I thought there might be some sneaky move still out there.

From "The House of Staunton", naturally. These are pretty expensive though.
They give king-height vs board size which might be helpful but otherwise, the prices are probably more than the average moron wants to pay.

I think he missed Qc7 is check. I found a 3 move mate but when I looked back at it, I noticed the check. Mine might have been the same as his but I lost interest as soon as I noticed the check.
The Rd7 move is nearly obvious if you look at the whole board before starting but I zoomed in on the top corner right away.

This was predictable -- in fact, I'm sure it was predicted.

I didn't even know there was a rook when I did my first solution! It wasn't until I read Skip's solution that I saw he mentioned a rook ... so I had to go back and look at the board again
That's when I realized the Queen checked in my original solution.
Yeah ... it's been that kind of day.

Quite a lot of things.
1. BxB+
2. Moving the R to g8 lets the white King run away.
3. After Qxp+ (Qxg3) white can exchange queens so it's not checkmate.
Probably more.
But moving the Castle behind the Queen is the right idea it just does not work in this case.

Used to be an Asian market that sold things like canned grass jelly.
I asked the owner if people liked it and he basically said that people ate it.
I asked a friend who was doing a Chinese degree at the time, and he said he thought it was probably tastier than bark soup and dirt.

The price has come down. They now have a $300 cheap version. They used to be $500.
I thought of building my own and looked into the price of RFid chips but they have a patent and they used the simplest possible way to do it (same as I did).
The chips are very cheap and you could use a raspberry pi for the clock ... but patents. My daughter is a h/w engineer but i couldn't interest her in building the circuits for me anyway.
The reason I looked into the board prices is that the president of our chess club wants to broadcast the top couple of boards at our weekly tournaments on twitch.

Masked thugs, civilians killed by live rounds, and the burning of trucks carrying badly-needed food and medicine. This has been Maduro's response to peaceful efforts to help Venezuelans. Countries that still recognize Maduro should take note of what they are endorsing.

I can't think of one without the other. The BBC was doing a tribute to whatshisname who died and when they played Singing in the Rain all I could see was Alex and his Droogs kicking the old wino.

It was the rape scene that featured Singin' In The Rain. Also, supposedly it was Malcolm McDowell's idea to sing it.

There's also another video where they're dinosaurs trying to play catch, and one says to the other "Do dinosaurs have balls?.

Even the Somalians stole our aid and used it. But I've got an open mind. I'll wait and see what Bernie says about it.

They thought Stanley was way over the top with it, and wish someone could have told him, take it down a notch or ten.
But then I tried to explain, that's what makes it so effective as a film, that it's so over-the-top.

Venezuela's army has devolved to where it's little more than a pack of thugs with some small arms. They can terrorize civilians, but that's about all. The only reason for holding off is to see just who's willing to go all the way down into the pit with Maduro.

OK, so you've all abandoned this thread and not gone to the next thread.
Well it's the "your humble narrator" thing. See, I did that before this thread. I wrote that yesterday. That's an Alex thing from Clockwork Orange.
Don't you see the convergence!?!?!

Biggest set they have at a semi-decent price ($250). May still be small-ish for that board.
