Apr-09-04		Honza Cervenka: This is a game of Josef Dobias

Apr-09-04		Honza Cervenka: 19.Re6 is a nice shot.

Apr-09-04		Gypsy: Wasn't Dobias already in his 90's? Or was that a different Dobias?

Apr-09-04		Gypsy: Mea culpa. Even if it were the same Dobias, my chronology is wrong. Master Dobias was in his 90's in the 1980s. (And he was active then.)

Feb-12-05		Mating Net: A great combination by Dobias. I can't resist giving the sensational continuation if Black plays ...19 fxe6. 20Qxg6+ Kh8 21Qh6+ Kg8 22Bh7+ Kh8 23Bf5+ Kg8 24Bxe6+ Rf7 25Bxf7# Maybe someday. One can dream, right?

Feb-13-07		Octavia: Chernev in LOGICAL CHESS, paraphrases Philidor for move 2: "This Pawn is played two Moves for two very important Reafons; The first is, to hinder your Adverfary's King's Bifhop to play upon your King's Bifhop's Pawn; and the fecond, to put the Strength of your Pawns in the middle of the Exchequer, which is of great Confequence to attain the making of a Queen." We may ftill follow the advice if not the fpelling, he added. Well, Philidor was French, so he wouldn't have used this language, which means that Chernev saw Philidor's advice in some German book And the Script or fractur alphabet was used. In Germany its just called the German alphabet as opposed to the latin which is used nowadays. This alphabet has 2 forms for the small s, one looks very much like an f! The latin small s is only used at the end of words.

Feb-02-09		Mibelz: <Honza Cervenka> Josef Dobiaš was born 24 December 1886 and died 31 January 1981. Do you know his birthplace and deathplace ?
