In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible." - Victor Frankl [4q2k/2r1r1p1/4Pn1p/p1p2R2/P2pQ2P/1P1B1R2/6P1/6K1 w - - 0 38] White to move and win - Find the

(8/24) Problem of the Week: Tactical training with our weekly puzzle.
(8/24) Online Chess League: The inaugural OCL Individual Championships have finished, and the winners take their proud place in the Hall of Champions. Meanwhile, the Fall 2003 Tournament is beginning to gear up. Get all the details on the OCL index page. (8/23) The New York Masters Game of the Week, with commentary by IM Greg Shahade. Last week’s champion, Jay Bonin, is coming off the NY Masters of his life, with a perfect 4/4 score, and everyone wondered…..would he be able to continue the magic this week? Ehlvest and Gonzales moved out to a quick 2/2 score with victories over Boris Privman and Ron Young. Now the question was…who would join them at the top. Would it be GM Alex Stripunsky or 21 year old 2210 player Yaacov Norowitz?

Garry Kasparov
Bobby Fischer's My 60 Memorable Games, David Bronstein's book on the 1953 Zurich International Chess Tournament, The Life and Games of Mikhail Tal and a small handful of others represent the select group of annotated game collections which reach legendary, almost cult, status. Is Kasparov's latest effort in that same category? Of course, only time will tell, but I think it has a chance... First in a planned series of probably five books, this first volume focuses on the play of champions Wilhelm Steinitz (1886-1894), Emanuel Lasker (1894-1921), Jose Capablanca (1921-1927) and Alexander Alekhine (1927-1935 and 1937-1946).
It is accurate to say that this book covers the era represented by these players, not just the Champions themselves. The tone is set early, in the sub-title of the Introduction, "The Champions as Symbols of Their Time". By looking not just at the Champion, but at his contemporaries and challengers, Kasparov grounds each Champion in their natural historical context. He then tries to demonstrate the development of chess thought as represented by the games of all these great players. The first game analyzed in detail for this book (and there are 148 of them!) is Game 1 of the 1834 McDonnell-la Bourdonnais match, and Kasparov spends two and one-half pages on this game of just 37 moves. Plenty of diagrams make it more interesting to read through, but of course to really reap the benefits of the immense amount of analytical work that went into this book one needs a board to play through the games. Garry Kasparov is well known for the army of talented IMs/GMs that work for him, and his acknowledged assistants in this book include the latest chess software engines, and Dmitry Plisetsky, "for many years deputy editor-in-chief of the magazine Shakmaty v SSSR/Rossii, and the author of a large number of articles and books, so you know the analysis is thorough. The authors have clearly done their historical homework on these games, often quoting other, earlier analysts (including the combatants themselves) and pointing out omissions or even outright errors in the prior analysis. Kasparov points out where modern chess understanding would dictate a different course of action than occurred in the game, even while acknowledging that in many instances, the line played at the time was consistent with the best chess thought of that time...

Fischer,R - Spassky,B This week I get to sneak in one of my personal favorite
games, where a reigning World Champion is reduced to the role of a spectator
at his own execution, shuttling his queen back and forth between two squares

considered using for this game, because after Fischer's next move, Spassky
is helpless. 32.Qe5 Qe8 33.a4 Qd8 34.R1f2 Qe8 35.R2f3 Qd8 36.Bd3 Qe8 37.Qe4

Black resigns in light of 41...Qg8 and now White has two ways to mate the quickest: 42.Qe5
(or the other way White can win is 42.Rf8 Rc8 43.Qf6+ Rg7 44.e7 when
everything is mate-in-four or better) Believe it or not the best Black
has, to delay the inevitable, is 42...Qxg2+ 43.Kxg2 Rg7+ 44.Kh3 Kh7 45.Qf5+
Kh8 46.Rxh6+ Kg8 47.e7+ Rf7 48.Qxf7 mate. |
