Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-12-06  Chessman1: Maybe it's Paul Kroger, President and CEO of Kroger.
Aug-05-08  myschkin: . . .
Der Hamburger Meister Paul Krüger (1871-1939) nahm in den zwanziger Jahren gerne an kleinen Lokalturnieren teil. Einmal wurde er während eines solchen Turniers von einem Reporter des Kreisblattes interviewt. Nach kurzer Zeit stellte sich heraus, dass der Schreiber des Blattes keine Ahnung vom Schach hatte - diese Gelegenheit ließ Krüger sich nicht entgehen, ihn kräftig zu veräppeln.

Am nächsten Tag lasen die erstaunten Kreisblatt-Abonnenten: «Die spannendste Partie der gestrigen Runde wurde zwischen dem Hamburger Meister Krüger und unserem Spitzenspieler M. ausgetragen. M. eröffnete als Anziehender diesmal mit den schwarzen Steinen. Der Gast parierte mit der gefürchteten Königstigervariante des Damenspiels und es gelang ihm, den König frühzeitig ins Spiel zu bringen. In einer Serie kraftvoller Züge griff der weiße König die schwarze Dame an, jagte sie über das Schachbrett und lockte sie schließlich in eine tödliche Falle!»

:D

The Hamburg master Paul Krüger (1871-1939) enjoyed taking part in small local tournaments in the 1920s. He was once interviewed by a reporter from the Kreisblatt during such a tournament. After a short time it turned out that the writer of the paper had no idea about chess - Krüger didn't miss this opportunity to make fun of him.

The next day, the astonished Kreisblatt subscribers read: “The most exciting game of yesterday's round was played between the Hamburg champion Krüger and our top player M. M. opened as the attractive player this time with the black stones. The guest parried with the dreaded king tiger variation of the queen's game and managed to bring the king into play early on. In a series of powerful moves, the white king attacked the black queen, chasing her across the chessboard and ultimately luring her into a deadly trap!”

Guess I've fallen out of the habit.

Plus, posting it allows instant review and access, and evaluation of worth for inclusion.

I'd like a simple tag allowing a post pgn to get included in the database.

(Please don't get on my tail about wasting valuable DB space with such a post - given <dice>'s voluminous, er, "contributions".

Besides - after promotion the PGN could automatically be removed from a tagged post with the game link replacing it.)
