A Foolproof Plan
Another Kennedy Kids Story
from Master Storyteller Rick Kennedy

Today Rick's son Matt takes his turn on center stage:

“Matt, you’ve got to do something about your kid brother.”

I smiled.  A few of the guys come over to my house after school each day.  Sometimes we do homework.  Sometimes we study.   Adam likes to play chess against my brother, Jon.

“Really.  You have to do something.  So far he’s beaten me in two moves, three moves, four moves, five moves and six moves.”  “He’s almost up to your I.Q.,” one of the guys razzed, tossing an eraser.

“Maybe you should play against his sister,” someone quipped, and that started a round of laughter.  Not very likely, that, I thought.  Mary Elizabeth spent her afternoons online, in the next room, checking out all the Harry Potter internet websites.

I took pity on Adam, and decided to help.  I arranged for the next game to be played in the kitchen, where Jon could be distracted by a large pile of cookies.

To even the odds a bit more, I pointed out to my friend that the tiled floor could be used as an imaginary chessboard.  I’d stay in the room when he and Jon played, close enough to see the game.  If he needed help, Adam could look my way, and I would show him what move to make by casually walking from one tile to another, as if I were the piece making the move, myself.  He could watch, then make the same move on his board.

It was a fool-proof plan.  After all, I always beat my brother at chess.

Read the rest of his latest scheme, A Fool Proof Plan.  Also enjoy other Kennedy Kids stories, along with Rick's other short story series, Perry the PawnPusher, and Sherlock Holmes.
 

Chess Links

This week we've added new links to dozens of chess sites.  From 65th Square ("Our mission is to foster and encourage knowledge of, and the participation in the game of chess, and its application on the Internet") to Chess Pages - Free Chess  (addressed to chess players wanting to learn what the computer can offer to improve their chess playing, as well as to be able to view, store and analyze chess games. All suggested software here is free), there's something for everyone here.

Take a ride on the Chess Train  ( FM Shivkumar Shivaji & GM Yury Shulman's site, reviewing Chess Assistant, some limited chess news, not a very deep site) or study the Codex for Chess Composition  (From the Permanent Commission of the FIDE for Chess Compositions, everything you always wanted to know about chess compositions).

Like to do some early Christmas shopping (for yourself even?), try Hote Imports  (Egyptian pewter chess sets, free shipping) or visit The Chess Shop  (nearly 200 chess sets, pieces, and chess accessories).

Into computer chess in a big way, or just getting started?  Find out which programs are the best at Computer Chess Ratings  (by Eric Hallsworth, who runs the Selective Search magazine) or maybe you'll want to learn about Jim's Chess Strategy  (A personal web site offering advice for defeating chess computers).

See all of the new links on Chessville's Recent Links Additions page.  Our entire collection of more than 1100 sites is broken down into easy to find categories, including Articles & Interviews; Bughouse Links; Chess Clubs; Computer Chess & Software; Correspondence Chess; Discussion Forums & Bulletin Boards; Endings; Events; Federations; Game Collections; General Sites; Humor; Language: Chess Sites in Other Languages; Miscellaneous; News; Online Databases; Openings; Organizations; Personal Sites; Players; Playing Sites, Online Leagues; Publishing; Ratings & Ratings Lists; Reference, Info, & History; Reviews; Scholastic; Shopping; Study Games; Tactics, Problems, and Compositions; and Training.
 

The Mad Aussie's Chess Trivia
From Graham Clayton

Turning Heads:  In the course of finishing =3rd in the 26th USSR championship at Tbilisi in 1959, Ratmir Kholmov won the following 7 prizes:

1. Best result by a master player
2. Best results by a master against GM opponents
3. Best results over last 5 rounds
4. Most number of wins with Black
5. Best result against the top 6 finishers in the tournament.
6. Making a GM norm
7. Playing the "most beautiful name"

Turning Heads the Other Way:  When the official Russian collection of Alexander Alekhine's best 300 games was published in 1954, there are no mentions of the locations of any of the tournaments in Nazi-controlled Europe that Alekhine played in after 1940.  All of the games are listed as "Tournament 1941", or other "anonymous" citations.

Position of the Week: Solution

I found this interesting position in one of my favorite books, The Fireside Book of Chess, selected and edited by Irving Chernev & Fred Reinfeld.  The position is attributed to a Herbstmann.

1.Rxa4+  1.Rd2 Qc3+ 2.Kb1 Qxd2 and mate can't be stopped;  1.Rd3 Qxd3 2.Rxc6 Black mates in two.  1...Qxa4  Or 1...Kxa4 2.a8Q+ Kb5 and at least it's a fight!  2.a8=Q Qxa8 3.Ra7+ Nxa7 4.b7 Qxb7 White is stalemated!

From
Benjamin Franklin's
The Morals of Chess

The Game of Chess is not merely an idle amusement; several very valuable qualities of the mind, useful in the course of human life, are to be acquired and strengthened by it, so as to become habits ready on all occasions.

The game becomes ... more the image of human life, and particularly of war; in which if you have incautiously put yourself into a bad and dangerous position, you cannot obtain your enemy’s leave to withdraw your troops, and place them more securely, but you must abide by all the consequences of your rashness.

We learn chess by the habit of not being discouraged by present bad appearances in the state of our affairs; the habit of hoping for a favourable chance, and that of preserving in the search of resources.

Success is apt to produce presumption and its consequent inattention, by which more is afterwards lost than was gained by the preceding advantage, while misfortunes produce more care and attention, by which the loss may be recovered.

No false move should ever be made to extricate yourself out of a difficulty, or to gain an advantage; for there can be no pleasure in playing with a man once detected in such unfair practice.

If you are a spectator, while others play, observe the most perfect silence: for if you give advice, you offend both the parties: him against whom you give it, because it may cause him to lose the game: him in whose favour you give it, because, though it be good, and he follow it, he loses the pleasure he might have had, if you had permitted him to think till it occurred to himself.
