May-18-13 Weaver   wwall: It is still an accurate statement. In the 1940 US Open finals in Dallas, Adams did not win a single game as White. He won 4 games as Black, had 2 draws, and lost 2 games as White. This games is from a 1982 Dayton Chess Club tournament against Steve Fenic. The player may have been Matt      May-18-13 Tringov vs Browne, 1970   wwall: 36...Qd7 looks like the losing move, allowing White to penetrate with Qf3 and Qa8. Best may be 36...Rxg3 37.Qxe6+ Kb8 38.Nc4 Rg2 (or 38...Qc5) 39.Nxd6 Qc6, which now looks drawish.      May-17-13 Ljubojevic vs Browne, 1970   wwall: But was 17.Bxe6 the best move? Perhaps just 17.Qxe3 for a safer move. After 17.Bxe6, instead of 17...Bd4, perhaps Black is better off after 17...Qe7, winning the exchange. If 18.Nd5, then 18...Ne5. If 18.Bd4, then 18...Nd4 and 19...Nxc2. The losing move seems to be 20...Qb6? and no ...      May-12-13 Browne vs M Kovacs-Pinter, 1970   wwall: 38...Ra1?? was the losing move, since White has mate after sacking his queen with 39.Qxh7+. Black had to play 38...Rg7. If 39.Rg4, then 39...Rxg4 40.Qxg4 Qc8 should hold for Black. Black mates in the game after 41.Bh6+, K-any, 42.Bf8 mate.      May-12-13 wwall chessforum   wwall: Thanks wordfunph. It was a nice, quiet day.      May-11-13 Smyslov vs Browne, 1970   wwall: 51.Rc2 f5 (51...Rd7?) 52.exf5 (that does look better than 52...gxf5) 52...gxf5 53.g5 and White should also win here. Black could try 53...Rg8, but White gets in with 54.Rfc3 as in the game. After 54...Rxg5 55.Rc8+ Ke7 56.Re2+ Kd7 57.Rb8 Kc7 58.Ree8 looks strong. White must now avoid ...      May-11-13 R Nicevski vs Browne, 1970   wwall: 15.Nfe5 (to defend the knight at c4) looks weak, but Black is probably still winning after 15.Nfd2 Ne3 16.Be4 Bxc4 17.Bxd3 Bxb3 18.Nxb3 Nxf1 19.Bxf1 Bxc3 and Rac8.      May-08-13 Parma vs Browne, 1970   wwall: After 19.Nd5, perhaps better is 19...Qc4 instead of 19...Qb7, so that if 20.Nxe7, then 20...Qxe7. After 19...Qb7, instead of 20.Nxb4, perhaps better is 20.Nxe7. If 20...Rxb2 (20...Qxe4 21.Qxe4 Rxe4 22.f5 looks strong for White) then 21.Ng6+ hxg6 22.h5 Rb1+ 23.Kd2 Qb4+ 24.Ke2 Qb5+ ...      May-06-13 Ivkov vs Browne, 1970   wwall: After 27.Qg5, instead of 27...f6, perhaps 27...Rxc4 28.Rxc4 Qxc4 29.Qxe7 Qxd5, and Black is a pawn up. 28...Qxd5 looks drawish. Perhaps 28...Raxa3 29.Rxa3 Rxa3 30.Qe6 Ra7. 32...Rxa3?? loses. Looks like a draw after 32...Qc3 33.Qf8+ Kg5 34.Rd1 Rxa3      May-05-13 Hort vs Browne, 1970   wwall: After 32.exd6, perhaps 32...Qxd6 is better than 32...exd6 and Black can exchange some pieces for a possible draw. After 33.Nxf5, the Black queen is attacked. If it moves, such as 33...Qf6, then 34.Rxe8 Rxe8 35.Nxd6 Re6 36.Nxf7 Qxf7 37.Qxd7 wins. After 34.Qe4, White is threatening ...

< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 3 OF 5 ·  Later Kibitzing> Apr-16-11    AylerKupp: Sunday, May 15 for a game is fine with me. Apr-16-11    wwall: bill_wall at bellsouth.net the dates are ok Apr-16-11    chessmoron: I see you. You will be at table 1. Apr-16-11    kutztown46: 11:45 AM. I am logged in at Advanced Lounge 7. Apr-16-11    Open Defence: breaking news!! Bill Wall + Open Defence draw against Rybka!! :) Apr-16-11    wwall: I think it was Houdini we played, run by Aylerkupp. We had Black. With the help of Hosea, we got a draw (drawn endgame as we sacked our knight to get into a knight vs pawn ending). Apr-16-11    Open Defence: i thought Wilson said GE and AK switched engines and kutz just posted his stockfish game against houdini, so my guess we drew with rybka.. though i am very confused at the line up change Apr-16-11    Open Defence: the yahoo game score emailed to me is in a very poor format will wait for AK to post the PGN Apr-16-11    kutztown46: Congratulations <Deffi> and <Bill Wall> for your draw against Rybka. My Stockfish gets to play against you next week. Apr-16-11    chessmoron: April 16-Round 1 Rybka 4 (User: AylerKupp)-Hosea/Schiller/Wall Houdini (User: Golden Executive)-Stockfish (User: kutztown46) April 23-Round 2 Hosea/Schiller/Wall-Stockfish Rybka 4-Houdini April 30-Round 3 Houdini-Hosea/Schiller/Wall Stockfish-Rybka 4 May 7-Round 4 Hosea/Schiller/Wall-Rybka 4 Stockfish-Houdini May 14-Round 5 Stockfish-Hosea/Schiller/Wall Houdini-Rybka 4 May 21-Round 6 Hosea/Schiller/Wall-Houdini Rybka 4-Stockfish Apr-16-11    Open Defence: we have White next week if you have any specific opening prep in mind do let me know Apr-18-11    Open Defence: Hi Bill, sent you an email Apr-21-11    playground player: <wwall> Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out. And thanks for introducing me to the Orangutan! I've had no end of fun with it. Apr-23-11    chessmoron: 40 more minutes. (8:20 am PDT as I'm writing) Yahoo Chess! Advanced Lounge 7. Apr-23-11    Open Defence: im logged in 6 mins to go Apr-23-11    wwall: A draw with Stockfish in 34 moves. Will post game later. Apr-23-11    chessmoron: <wwall> I might have to move Round 5 to May 21st because of <Open Defence>'s Business trip 5/10-5/16 with May 14th as a rest day. If you object, please let me know. Apr-23-11    wwall: <chessmoron>. I have no problem on the May date, but now I have a conflict for next week, April 30. I am playing in the Space Coast Open in Cocoa, FL with round 1 at 10 am and Rd 2 at 1 pm. I don't think I can make the 12 noon start time for EST. Can a replacement be found for me or can Hosea and Eric play if Eric makes it? Apr-23-11    Open Defence: does Sunday 1 May 2011 work for you Bill? Apr-23-11    chessmoron: <1 May 2011> won't work for <kutztown> though. Would April 29th work for you <wwall>? Apr-23-11    wwall: Friday, April 29 would work for me if it is in the evening EST. On May 1, my rounds are at 9 am and 2:30 pm. I would be ok in the evening. Apr-23-11    chessmoron: 10:30 pm EDT Friday on April 29th? (That 8 am Saturday in India). If that doesn't work for you, Thursday, the 28th at the same time? Apr-23-11    Golden Executive: <chessmoron> <April 30-Round 3 Houdini-Hosea/Schiller/Wall Stockfish-Rybka 4 > I (Houdini´s operator) have no problem playing at Sunday May 1 or Friday 29. I have problem thursday 28 Apr-23-11    wwall: 10:30 pm EST works perfectly for me on Friday (Thursday also works) Apr-23-11    Open Defence: just read the comments to the rybka game at chess.com, I dont think the average chess fan understands how much of a handicap no Opening books and no Tablebases are to an engine it still takes a lot of work to go the distance against an engine but with opening books and tablebases the engines would gain and exploit advantages in record time so the guy who posted that rybka must have been handicapped was in a sense right that it was handicapped with no opening book or tablebase but not otherwise in handicapped in any way.. wonder what they will say for the stockfish game especially since it was a tactical shot that got the draw!
