Aug-13-03 | | ughaibu: Probably Penrose' most famous game. |

 | | Sneaky: Jonathan Penrose is the brother of the well-known mathematician and physicist Sir Roger Penrose. |
|
Aug-14-03 | | Kenneth Sterling: Anyone who is feeling mentally unchallenged might want to curl up with a volume of Penrose's Spinors and Space-Time: Spinor and Twistor Methods in Space-Time Geometry. |
|
Jun-05-04 | | rodrigochaves: i think tal saids the begging of black“s problems was 12.Re8 he must be played 12.Rb8 looking for the expansion in the queenside.
and i think f8 a good place for the rook because the square in f7 is protected |
|
Jun-05-04 | | rodrigochaves: after this game Penrose become very nervous every time he played an important game. So he prefered dispute postcard chess.becoming nervous is a common thing in this sport, but what suprising me is that penrose was a teacher of psycology... |
|
Oct-04-04 | | tacticsjokerxxx: <rodrigochaves> why on earth would be become nervous, he won?? |
|
Dec-05-04 | | rodrigochaves: i think is because he won the world champion and since them, the people begin to pay attetion his game in the internacional tournamentsand he didn't feeling well with the pressure |
|
Dec-18-04 | | Milo: In case Tal's 26th seems odd to anyone else, Penrose is threatening the devastating Ne6, forking mate and queen. There is no way to defend this and keep the knight. |
|
Mar-09-05 | | mcgee: Tal had asked for the final round off during this Olympiad. He threatened to lose if he was forced to play; the threat was almost certainly a jocular one but presumably he was not in the most positive frame of mind. But all credit to Penrose; the positional pawn sacrifice is both brave and thrilling (especially if you're a limey!) |

 | | offramp: <Milo: In case Tal's 26th seems odd to anyone else, Penrose is threatening the devastating Ne6, forking mate and queen. There is no way to defend this and keep the knight.> It does look odd; what might Tal have played after 27.Nge4? |
|
Aug-24-05 | | Pawn Ambush: I remember reading in one of the old CHESS LIFE & REVIEW that Black must start Queenside action right away against this Penrose system, Portisch shows the way: M Bertok vs Portisch, 1962 |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Confuse: <mcgee> thats interesting! I remember another time tal said that the game would be a draw, and in a winning position forced the repetition... or something similar to that. In the picture here tal looks irritated or bored. im not sure which. anyhow an impressive win by penrose none the less : ) |

 | | Eggman: <<Jonathan Penrose is the brother of the well-known mathematician and physicist Sir Roger Penrose.>> Is that for sure? The same Penrose who worked with Stephen Hawking? I did not know that! |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Albertan: According to Junior 9 Tal could have played 19...f5 and play might have continued: 20.e6 Nf6 21.Bxc5 Qxc5 22.Qxc5 dxc5 23.Rfd1 b4! 24.Na4 Rb5 |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Albertan: If instead of 21.Rad1 Penrose had played 21.fxg6 then play might have continued: 21.fxg6 fxg6 22.Bxg6! hxg6 23.Qf7+ Kh8 24.Nf5! Bf6 25.Qxg6 Rf8 26.Nxb5 Qd8 27.Qh5+ Kg8 28.Nbd7 Bxd5 29.Nh6+ Kh7 30.Nhf7 dis ch + Kg8 31.Qg6+ Bg7 32.Bh6 Ne6 33.Nxd8  |

Jul-31-06 | | MichaelJHuman: From the wikipedia entry on Roger Penrose:
Sir Roger Penrose, OM, FRS (born 8 August 1931) is an English mathematical physicist and Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford. He is highly regarded for his work in mathematical physics, in particular his contributions to general relativity and cosmology. He is also a recreational mathematician and controversial philosopher. Roger Penrose is the son of scientist Lionel S. Penrose and Margaret Leathes, and the brother of mathematician Oliver Penrose and chess grandmaster Jonathan Penrose. |

Jul-31-06 | | virtuex: Who is who above picture?..Can you tell me ?.. |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Gouki: virtuex: Penrose is the one on the left and Tal is the one on the right. |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Jack Kerouac: 'Life's a holiday on
Penrose Lane...' |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Rocafella: <Kenneth Stirling> Where abouts in Manchester were you born? |
|
Jul-31-06 | | virtuex: Thanks Gouki.. |
|
Jul-31-06 | | MarvinTsai: One of Roger Penrose's most famous argument is that computers will never be as intelligent as mankind. Though I don't agree with him, I really admire his scientific achievement and his brother's performance in this game. |
|
Jul-31-06 | | kevin86: Tal is drained by Penrose. lol
Finally,the sac-meister is hoisted on his own petard. The final chase is amusing-the black bishop is chased away from guarding the rook, who in turn, guards the queening square of white's pawn |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Jack Kerouac: <Marvin Tsai>
Let us hope computers never become as 'intelligent' as humans. We can wreck havoc on this planet well enough without artificial intelligence intervention.
Though I still think the best way to beat a computer is the King's Indian Attack.... |
|
Jul-31-06 | | Mendrys: The picture looks like it was taken at move 11. Tal looks bored while Penrose looks pensive. 22....Na4 seems to be Tal's biggest mistake. He needed to worry about his Knight on d7 first. |
