Roughly speaking, there are two kinds of probability - there are odds that can be calculated and there are ones that can only be estimated.

Let's start with the easy one first. If we have a system with outcomes that are equal likely, then we can calculate precise odds. If I throw a perfect dice, then there is a 1 in 6 chance of a six coming up.

That is calculated as the number of winning outcomes (1) divided by the number of possible outcomes (6). And that gives us the answer of 1/6.

We can make this a little more complicated. Throw 2 dice and the chance of a double six is 1 in 36. There is one result that wins (6-6) out of 36 possible outcomes (6x6).

But that's a perfect system where each dice roll is as likely as any other. We cannot apply the same logic to systems with uncertain outcomes.

Imagine we have a horse race with 6 horses in it. Does each horse have a 1/6 chance of winning? No, of course not. A lot will depend on how fit the horse is, whether it likes the course, the skill of the jockey and so on. Too many variables to calculate, so we have to estimate based on our knowledge of the horse's previous record. And that's why horse races have different odds for each horse.

"So be it, King = Infinity/1 = 1/infinifity +1 = 1/infinity = 0 * 100 = 0% of being captured."

When we express a fraction, as in x/y, what we are really saying is "x divided into y number of pieces". So 1/2 is one divided into two pieces. A half.

What this means is that <infinity/1> is "infinity divided into one piece". In other words, it is still infinity. In the same way, 2/1 is 2.

But when we express it the other way around we change the value entirely. <1/ infinity> is the same as saying "1 divided into an infinite number of pieces". This is as small a number as you can get.

But when you add 1 to this number you get ... 1! Zero plus 1 = 1.

So what your "calculation" is saying is that infinity = zero = 1 = zero.

Your other calculations don't make sense either. You pawn calculation is this:

<P = 1/1 = 1/1+1 = 1/2 = 0.5 * 100 = 50 %>

And if you express each section of this, what you are saying is that:

1 = 2 = 0.5

what is amusing. Embarrassing actually. .. Is you, posting all kinds of silly s@it on this site regarding Fischer,but being unable to provide any UNTAINTED source..

If you post accusations such as you did, have the decency to back them up.

It was February 1978, in <Chess Life and Review>, in an interview between Spassky and Mednis, on the eve of the second Korchnoi-Spassky match.

<1972 Fischer Match
Spassky says that the most important factor in a match is the condition of a player's nerves, since without good nerves it is impossible to properly concentrate. For chess and personal reasons, his nerves both before and during his 1972 Fischer match were in extremely poor condition. (His polite, reserved behavior during the match effectively concealed the condition of his nerves — EM.) The real breaking point came as early as Game 3 (which at Fischer's insistence was played in a small, essentially private room — EM). When early in the game Bobby shouted "Shut up" at the chief referee, GM Lothar Schmid, Boris's nerves came completely unglued. He now feels that the only way to steady his composure would have been to say at that moment, "I resign the game, as it is obviously impossible to play for the world championship under such conditions." This action, Boris feels, would have steadied him for the rest of the match.>

I'm surprised this is controversial, I thought it was fairly well known that Fischer and Schmid had had a little set-to early on in that game. The story is only barely referenced in this interview, precisely because it was fairly well known and didn't need any great explanation.

Here's another case,supposedly from Ramanujam's diary.

9-15 = 4-10
9-15+(25/4) = 4-10+(25/4 )
9+(25/4)-15 = 4+(25/4)-10
(this is just like : a square + b square - two a b = (a-b)square. )

Here a = 3, b=5/2 for L.H.S and a =2, b=5/2 for R.H.S.

So it can be expressed as follows:

(3-5/2)(3-5/ 2) = (2-5/2)(2-5/ 2)

Taking positive square root on both sides:

3 - 5/2 = 2 - 5/2
