You have nothing to fear but my library.

"Ein Mensch, was ka Schach spielt, ist ka Mensch. Im Schach sitzt die Intelligenz, sag' ich. Da kann einer vier Meter lang sein, Schach muß er spielen, sonst ist er ein Tepp. Ich kann Schach. Ich bin auch kein Tepp. Jetzt frag' ich Sie; wenn Sie wollen, antworten Sie mir. Wenn Sie nicht wollen, antworten Sie nicht. Wozu hat ein Mensch den Kopf? Ich sag's Ihnen selbst, sonst zerbrechen S' Ihnen noch den Kopf, es wär' schad' drum. Zum Schach hat er den Kopf. Verstehen Sie mich? Sagen Sie ja, dann ist alles Gut. Sagen Sie nein, dann sag' ich's Ihnen nochmal, weil Sie's sind."

Weltmeister Dr. Siegfried Fischer
from Elias Canetti, Die Blendung, 1935

It's better to have D Love and lost than never to have D Love at all.

dada ga ggllllblllrrrr ka!

Rudy Kousbroek: Larkensviedje

Die ochtend zei het wrattenzwijn:
Nu moet het afgezopen lijn,
Stijnen helpt geen kweek.

Ja, drerk in plaats van woefenis:
Leven en schrijzen, room voos bis,
De wagen van de deek:

Waandag, Minsdag,
Zoensdag, Wonderdag,
Dijdag, Waterdag, Vrondag.

Zes dagen bijver zijn als nijen,
Op Vrondag vredig liggen zijen,
Dat maakt een woede geek.

sneaky pete: <Fruits> Then go and visit City of Tiel .
 
   Nov-18-09 Miguel Cuellar-Gacharna
 
sneaky pete: Jan Hein Donner on Cuellar vs Donner, Skopje 1972. Position after 87 moves, black to play. [DIAGRAM] Wit heeft de pion niet genomen - begrijp jij het, begrijp ik het - en is met zijn koning gan zwerven, tot f2 toe. Hij zag echter dat de koning op de damevleugel - de ...

sneaky pete: <Bureaucrat> What a lame excuse! <achieve> asked a trick question and you fell for it. The 5K race was held on Saturday afternoon.
 
   Nov-15-09 Jannes Van der Wal
 
sneaky pete: Jannes gained immortality when in December 1982, after he had become world champion, he was invited to appear in a <talk>show on Dutch television and didn't say a single word, the entire show. The first question the hostess asked: "Jannes, how old are you?", left him ...
 
   Nov-15-09 Fischer vs Peil, 1964
 
sneaky pete: After 10... Kf8 white shouldn't hurry trying to win a piece but instead go after the king. One possibility is 11.Qa3+ d6 12.Nxe5 c2 (or the same moves in reversed order) 13.Qxa5 cxb1=Q 14.Rxb1 dxe5 15.Ba3+ Ne7 (15... Ke8 16.Rxe5+ Be6 17.Qxc7 .. is hardly an improvement) 16.Rxe5 ...
 
   Nov-07-09 T Luther vs C Gabriel, 1990
 
sneaky pete: <Whitehat1963> Reach your finger here; see my rooks, queen and knight. Reach your hand here and put it into c7, e6 and f6. Be unbelieving no longer, but believe: 24... Re6 25.Nc7+ ..; 24... Kd8 25.Qc7+ Ke8 26.Re1+ Re6 27.Rxe6+ .. and if 27... dxe6 28.Nf6#. [DIAGRAM]
 
   Nov-06-09 Bogoljubov / Reti / Spielmann vs J Englund, 1919
 
sneaky pete: After 24.. Kxg7 not 25.Qg5+ .. but 25.Qe7+ .. and # next move.
 
   Nov-05-09 H Pfleger vs Petrosian, 1974
 
sneaky pete: The obvious answer is that this is a last round game and Pfleger needed a draw to clinch a GM result (his final score 7,5 out of 15 games was a GM result). The draw was agreed beforehand and when Petrosian was a bit careless Pfleger kept his part of the agreement by ignoring the

sneaky pete: 29.. Rxd3 30.Neg6+ Nxg6 31.Nxg6+ Kh7 32.Qxd3 fxe4 33.Qxe4 .. [DIAGRAM]
 
   Nov-05-09 M De Souza vs P Anderson, 1995
 
sneaky pete: With <around 1853> I meant 1851, see Shumov vs Jaenisch, 1851 .
