Bishoprick Member since Feb-23-04 · Last seen Sep-25-22 I live in Tappan, NY. My favorite player is Tal, although I also like Alekhine and early Karpov. Long ago, Tarrash was my favorite. My "current" rating is 1898, although if I were active I don't think I could maintain that. I've been a couple of hundred points higher, but that too was a long time ago.

Jun-10-22 Kotronias vs Xiu Deshun, 2011    Bishoprick: At random times while on CG I get this message,"Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator at chess@chessgames.com to inform them of the time this error ...      Jun-09-22 Jonathan Golob vs NN, 2022   Bishoprick: The hapless NN is still alive, and still and always ready to lose another game!      Mar-13-22 Ding Liren vs Mamedyarov, 2012    Bishoprick: I'm a Gelfand fan, but very impressive endgame play by Carlsen!      Mar-13-22 P Cramling vs Kamsky, 2016   Bishoprick: And the extra pawn. . .      Feb-05-22 A Feuerstein vs E Marchand, 1954   Bishoprick: Sadly,I was notified today (2/5/2022)that Arthur Feuerstein, aged 86, has died. He was a very fine chess player, and a real gentleman.      Jan-31-22 Bob Brooks vs B Wall, 1973   Bishoprick: Re Cheapo by the Dozen's 16 d4? It also looses. Takes a bit more time, but the end is the same.      Dec-08-21 D Ponziani vs NN, 1769    Bishoprick: Has NN ever won any game? Why does he keep playing?      Nov-17-21 Nimzowitsch vs Stoltz, 1934    Bishoprick: Black Queen trapped after 13 moves! Wish I could do that!      Nov-02-21 Tiviakov vs Ponomariov, 2001    Bishoprick: You start by knowing that this is a puzzle, and that the first move has to be a forcing move, preferably a check. The only available check is Nh3, which also happens to fork the white queen. Not difficult at all.      Oct-21-21 P Krueger vs Gruenfeld, 1923   Bishoprick: Don't understand why White lost. Seems like a perfectly even position. Did someone's flag fall?
