sleepyirv Member since Mar-08-07 · Last seen May-19-13 I would describe my chess philosophy as this: My opponent are in the middle of a dark house. The goal is to be the first one out. I am of the opinion my opponent is better navigating in the dark. So I set the house on fire and hope in the confusion I'll be able to escape. (Under Construction) The Attacking Player Glossary: <The Bible>: The Art of Attack in Chess by Vladimir Vukosvic the book that outlines how anyone can become an attacking player <The Esteemed Competition>: Positional players, or more specifically the players who enjoy simple positions to complex, maneuvering to direct attack, closed games to open games, etc. There are many roads to Rome and if they score wins off their style, good for them! But attacking players must try to play their game, not Karpov’s. <Heroic Defense>: Your opponent’s position is in shambles, your pieces are circles his king like shark, it’s only a matter of time before his position collapses… and he finds a way to get out of it! Follow the <Pillsbury Principle> <The Magician>: The one and only Mikhail Tal (1936-1982) <Pillsbury Principle>: As quoted by W.E. Napier, “So set up your attacks that when the fire is out, it isn’t out” –Harry Pillsbury The job is never done till mate is gotten. <Power Players>: Neil McDonald describes these players in his book “Chess Secrets: Giants of Power Play.” Aggressive players who plan their openings to middle games to ensure pressure is always on the opponent. Think of them as the scientific attacking players compared to artists like Tal and Shirov. <The Sicilian Defense>: The Cadillac of chess openings. <Tal Logic>: “First, how to sac my queen, then rook, then bishop, then knight, then pawns.” –Mikhail Tal The attacking player’s thought process should follow these lines.

May-20-13 Pilnik vs Najdorf, 1942    sleepyirv: Wow,<FSR> they responded very quickly to your request.      Apr-29-13 Filip vs K Urbanec, 1954   sleepyirv: 33...Qxe8 34. Bxf7+ Qxf7 35. Rxc8+ Qf8 36. d7 and the pawn will Queen.      Apr-29-13 H P Garcia vs P Gelpke, 1983    sleepyirv: 23. Nxe6 If Black takes the Queen falls. And if Black DOESN'T take... well, the Queen still falls. So, not a lot of options.      Apr-28-13 Lenderman vs Gulko, 2007    sleepyirv: The black side of the Morra-Smith can be very nice. Black doesn't do anything too flashy but gets dominant central control.      Apr-11-13 Tylor vs W Winter, 1933    sleepyirv: A good candidate for POTD. Really well done.      Apr-08-13 sleepyirv chessforum   sleepyirv: Thanks <Phony Benoni>!      Apr-08-13 Burille vs Jarvis, 1890    sleepyirv: A nice combination, though White could have played it a move earlier.      Apr-06-13 Geller vs J Yuchtman, 1959   sleepyirv: 29. Rxd5+! As exd5 loses to Bf5+ with a discovered attack on the Queen.      Apr-01-13 Dunbar vs Chawkin, 1925    sleepyirv: Of course, it's April Fool's Day. I suppose someone will remind us that it's traditional to assume the King can still castle in these type of positions, but this is certainly a "puzzle" actually easier to solve in the game.      Mar-30-13 Seirawan vs H Ardiansyah, 1983    sleepyirv: The actual game continuation flickered even less than the variation. As soon I could tell the Queen can go to b6 safely, I felt comfortable to say that it was winning for White because we go into a similar enough position from 17...Qxd5. This is technically something I should have      Mar-18-13 E Guo vs S Madhurima, 2011     Mar-11-13 S Zielinski vs A Olszowski, 2009     Feb-26-13 Phony Benoni chessforum     Feb-23-13 Beer vs G
