Dec-30-07 | | Halldor: White to play - 43. ?
 click for larger viewI was white and should have lost this game - maybe rather a coffeehouse style than Beer Chess. Played at ChessWorld.net. The last moves were 41. Nb1-c3!? <why not to try the last resource?> Ne4xc3 42. Kd3xc3 Kf4-e3?? <diagram>. <42... b7-b6 was necessary>. - Now I played 43. b5-b6, a simple winning move. My opponent told me he knew this well known trick, but he was too hasty - he saw his mistake before I played the winning move. - The game continued 43.b6 cxb6 44.a6 bxc5 45.axb7 cxd4+ 46.Kb2 d3 47.b8Q f4 48.Qe5+ Kd2 49.Qxf4+ Ke2 50.Kc1 1-0 |

Dec-30-07 | | Halldor: In the game Wade vs Korchnoi, 1960 is a similar theme,
White to play - 38. ?

This was the puzzle of the day at Chessgames.com Dec. 5th 2006. Raymond Keene also showed this position in his Times' column July 9th this year:

Jan-01-08 | | whiteshark: The best cure for a hangover is the hair of the dog that bit you. |
|
Jan-01-08 | | whiskeyrebel: one way to prevent a hangover is to simply keep going.. |
|
Jan-01-08 | | Akavall: Another way to prevent a hangover or greatly reduce it is to drink plenty of water before going to bed, but, of course, the fact that one was in the condition to remember to do it suggests that they weren't *that* drunk to begin with :). |

Jan-02-08 | | schnarre: Beer Chess looks well worth a try (though on a day I've got nothing else planned, of course). Thanks for the words of wisdom malthrope! |

Hehehe... Thanks <schnarre> :) It's getting much tougher to find good eclectic beer (drinking) quotes, but I recently came across these... Me thinks the world may have to drink more beer, so collectively the percentage increases that more 'beer quotes' will be forthcoming! <burp> ~lol~ So, without further adieu...

Jan-15-08 | | porgue: A pig walks into the bar and asks for a pitcher of beer. He drank it all then asked the bartender where the bathroom is. Bartender replies "down the hall and to the left". Another pig walks into the bar and orders 2 pitchers of beer. He finishes them off and then asks where the bathroom is. The bartender replies "down the hall and to the left". Another pig walks into the bar and orders 3 pitchers of beer. Finishing them off he was just going to stand up when the bartender asks him "well aren't you going to ask where the bathroom is?" The pig replies " no, i am going to go wee wee wee all the way home." |
