Mar-10-10 | | Uros Jankovic: "Patriot"
That would be a counting mistake (white is down a piece). Play might continue: 10...Nf6 11.Qd1 (11.Qh3 Nxc2+ 12.Kd1 Nd4 13.f3) 11...b4 stopping a c3 trap. There's no sense going very deep into this, however, since white has no compensation for losing a piece. I still believe that two pawn for a piece and semi open f file offer some counterplay. Wouldn´t mind playing white against you in that position. Thanks for your comment... |
|
Mar-10-10 | | Quentinc: Well, this sure spoiled me. A medium easy and nothing I tried for White worked -- I was sure I was overlooking something ridiculously obvious. Since Fischer was only around 11 when this was played, I didn't see that as any reason to conclude that this was a spoiler. |
|
Mar-10-10 | | Patriot: <Uros Jankovic> I stated there was no compensation for the piece, which is incorrect. As you say white has two pawns for a piece, but two pawns generally isn't enough compensation unless there is dynamic potential. Otherwise, if black can avoid complications he should eventually win. |

Mar-10-10 | | awfulhangover: Hehe, it's wednesday, and after a short while I gave up. Found nothing and felt stupid. Puh..., it WAS nothing! |

Mar-10-10 | | ruzon: Someone subscribe me to dzechiel@wellwishers.com! As someone who works in vision (computer, not human), I clearly appreciate its importance. Get well soon, David. |

Mar-10-10 | | turbo231: <benjinathan: cue a thousand posts which shows positions were Rybka couldn't solve the puzzle> Please forgive my ignorance but how does one cue a post for that,or cue a post in general? I would be very interested in those puzzles,it would give me something to do. I enjoy projects of that nature. |

Mar-10-10 | | johnlspouge: Wednesday (Medium/Easy)
J Altusky vs Fischer, 1954 (7.?) White to play and win.
Material: Even. The Black Ke8 has 2 legal moves. The White Bb3 attacks f7, so the pin of the Black Bg4 on Nf3 might be broken by check. The combination is a boomerang, however, because Black has a resource, so White should play a developing move, e.g., 7.Be3. Candidates (7.): Bxf7+
7.Bxf7+ Kxf7 8.Ng5+
Now, the boomerang:
8…Qxg5 9.Bxg5 Bxd1 10.Kxd1
Black has N for P. On move 9, other moves just leave Black up B for P. |
|
Mar-10-10 | | WhiteRook48: 7 Bxf7+??
i chose 7 Nxe5?? stupidly, the idea was 7...Bxd1 8 Bxf7+ Ke7 9 Nxc6+ Kxf7 10 Nxd8+ Rxd8 11 Kxd1. I overlooked 7...Nxe5 |
|
Mar-10-10 | | patzer2: <Turbo231> I think the suggestion is to do a search on Kibitz (button above) here to look for games and "positions Rybka had difficulty solving." Also, you might look at the neat description provided by User: zanshin on his profile for a summary of the kinds of positions Chess programs generally have difficulty solving. |

Thank you very much, this could get interesting. |

[White "Jacob Altusky"]
[Black "Robert James Fischer"]

7...Kxf7 8.Ng5+ Qxg5
1-0 |
|
Mar-10-10 | | Steffen23: Addendum: White now has compensation for its bishop with the winning of 3 pawns |
|
Mar-10-10 | | CitricAcid13: Steffen23, 7.Bg5 loses to 7...Bxc3 (8. Bxd8 Bxd1 and black is up a piece). Taking the bishop on f3 with the pawn or the queen gives up the bishop on g5 to the queen. 0-1 |
|
Mar-10-10 | | BraveUlysses: I got sucked in by this one, sneaky CG! Nice one. But only because it was presented as an "Easy/medium" puzzle... The hint was in the 'medium' bit- if it was just the classic "B takes, N check discovers the QxB" wheeze it would hardly have been more the "easy" would it? |

 | | kingfu: If I was Altusky, I would change my name to NN! |
|
Dec-16-11 | | Albion 1959: Amazing that an offhand blitz game by a 10 or 11 year old Fischer in 1954, that lasted only 8 moves, should attract so many comments and the subject of so much analysis !! |
|
Dec-16-11 | | ughaibu: Have you read the comments? There's nothing amazing about it, it's exactly as one would expect. |

 | | FSR: <gofer: I looked at this in the morning and wrote the following ... 7 dxe5 dxe5
8 Qxd8+ Rxd8
9 Ng5
===
...which I saved to a .txt file and gave up for the day...> 9...Rd1 is mate. |

 | | Penguincw: Jacob Altusky didn't expect the queen taking the knight. |

Apr-06-17 | | MrJafari: Interesting. You can always expect a shocking move from Fischer! |
|
Feb-27-20 | | Delilah: Looked like most of my games, of course I am on the losing side lol! |
