jessicafischerqueen: <OhioMissScarlettFan> I agree with your sentiment here: <OhioChessFan: <Missy> I appreciate your measured tone throughout this. And I agree a very high % of the time with what you're saying. Really, you're mostly saying what I am already thinking.>

jessicafischerqueen: Your over there regimen sounds salubrious! Interestingly, in Canada we save time by spelling "music and poker" as "moker." Initially we spelled it "poomus" but that sounded a little too declasse, even for us...

  jessicafischerqueen: Steinitz wrote at length about Staunton on pages 210-213 of the July 1888 International Chess Magazine. Below is a digest of salient quotes:

‘… this very Mr Staunton had made himself notorious as the literary persecutor of Harrwitz, Löwenthal and Anderssen, whom he assailed with personal hostilities in his various writings including actually the annotations of games.’

After writing that Staunton had ‘tortured poor Morphy’ over the possibility of a match between them, and in particular Staunton’s suppression of a key paragraph in a Morphy letter, Steinitz referred to ‘my having received similar treatment at the hands of this Mr Staunton’.

  jessicafischerqueen: Boden's only win against Morphy in 11 known games. Morphy scored +6 -1 =4 against Boden. P. W. Sergeant states in "Morphy's Games of Chess", that Morphy considered Boden to be the strongest of his English opponents.

  jessicafischerqueen: 5 board simultaneous game against Rivière, Boden, Barnes, Bird and Löwenthal. Morphy beat Rivière and Bird, lost to Barnes and drew against Boden and Löwenthal.

Mar-02-10  Travis Bickle: Dear Dr. Jessica, since you are 'The Stanley Kubrick' of chess bio's and you are deep in the research mode of Project Morphy I think you need to retain two or three Chessgame members to be your assistants. Ya know, to forage after all the details, scour after the known & unknown facts and to assembly all the abc's of Paul Morphy for you to creatively and precisely turn into another Masterpiece!! P.S. With a great soundtrack of course! ; P

  chancho: <Jess> I'm not sure if you met a poster named <SBC>. She knows a great deal about Paul Morphy and she has a page on that great player.

http://batgirl.atspace.com/

There is a whole lot of info on Morphy there.

Mar-02-10  SugarDom: 165 kibitz to coronation night.

Yes, we want to change the current communist government with royalty...

Mar-02-10  SugarDom: I meant Monarchy...

We want to shift CG's capital to Buckingham palace from Pyongyang...

  jessicafischerqueen: <Chancho> thanks very much for that link- BATGIRL (Sarah Beth) is the absolute BOMB no doubt. Her material on <Menchik> was a big help- but this page you've linked me to is the MOTHER OF ALL MORPHY RARE PHOTOS site.

Saints be praised <Chancho>!!

I spent hours- hours I tell you- looking for a photo or drawing of <Owen> on the net and no dice and lo and behold BATGIRL's got a photo of him up on her page.

Gracias!!!

heh

I'm not a big fan of North Korea either.

Pace has slowed though since I keep putting on an <Alekhine> suit and a <Russian Grandmasters> suit too.

  moronovich: <Jess>!

I just stopped by to say that I found your Morphy-video a brilliant piece of work !! The music,the pictures - it was almost like being there one self.Thanks my lady,and thumbs up for the next part.

Cheers.

Mar-04-10  crawfb5: I finished that CC game that was giving me pause. Here is the critical position (me as White to move):


click for larger view

I played 27. Bxe6 and eventually drew. A quick run through a couple of engines after the game ended suggested 27. Qh5 instead. I may write some notes to the game in my forum in the near future.

Mar-04-10  achieve: So you did finish that game now?

I just half an hour read your wonderful email. Back later <L>.

Mar-04-10  crawfb5: <N> Yes, the system finally gave me the option to claim the draw by repetition. In the email I think I referenced the wrong move because I was looking at the PGN rather than the position. The position here in Jess' forum is the one where I was stuck.
Mar-04-10  achieve: <L> Looks to me you threaten Bxe7+ and Rd8+ check with mating threat - but haven't checked, neither extensively nor thoroughly with engine yet. Fascinating position.

But of course Q takes e7 and covers <d8>

ehh - I need to take more than 24 seconds before I open my mouth next time.

Your h-pawn passer looks like a long term trump, but obviously too laborious to offer chances in CC.

Not sure. Will indeed check it out.

Good to hear you have your "study" back and operational! ;)

Mar-04-10  achieve: Extremely sharp position you arrived at, rook down, pawns/development up...

This indeed looks like a computer type position. No wonder you got/felt stuck here... This is insanely complex material to enter.

Mar-04-10  crawfb5: <Jess> Here's another recent CC game you might find amusing. It doesn't really have <fawn pawns> -- more like <pawns in full rut>.

[Event "Lions Cup B002"]

1. e4 Nc6 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 Nf6 4. Nc3 Bg4 5. Be3 g6 6. h3 Bxf3 7. Qxf3 Bg7 8. O-O-O O-O 9. g4 e6 10. h4 Nd7 11. g5 f6

I thought this was a mistake. It weakens e6 when Black no longer has the LSB.

12. Qh3 Qe7 13. f4 e5

Now the a2-g8 diagonal is weak.

14. Bc4+ Kh8 15.
h5 fxg5 16. hxg6 h6 17. fxg5 exd4 18. gxh6

Connected passed White pawns on g6 and h6 at move 18 deserve a diagram.

18...dxe3

<18...Be5 would last longer, but 19. g7+ is deadly>

19. hxg7+ Kxg7 20. Qh6+ 1-0

<20...Kf6 21. g7+ Ke5 22. Rd5#>

TROUBLE POSITION

Thanks for showing me that and JINX with <The Good Doctor>- I had an identical reaction- ultra sharp, my eye dove in and started "playing" and as <Neils> says it demands a lot more than 30 seconds.

I will have time to look at it properly, in addition to the <Invading Poland> game, after work today.

I was intrigued by the <Qh5> suggestion- it opens up a big can of worms.

Back later-
