Blockade! by J.D. Walker
J.D. Walker wrote: I have been watching Nakamura take on Rybka lately at blitz on ICC. He can draw an unexpected number of times given that Rybka is rated at about 3700 in blitz and he is only about 3400. Sometimes he even wins by running the computer out of time. I learned a few tricks from him. I used them to win from a lesser computer engine that was rated 2698 in blitz. ...

I'm a new chess player. The books I have, or am interested in, are already in there. I will gladly pay $10 US (firm) by paypal to the first person who wants to exchange for the DB books...

What is Fischer saying to Castro? by Chess One[_2_]
My old colleague Christophe Bouton has put up several fascinating pictures, especially of the Havanna 66 event. I have seen some others from this event; Larry Evans playing Mark Taimanov, with 'Che' Guevara looking on. That is on Mark's double music CD Christophe also shows Che at his own game, but, and how topical, also shows RJF saying something to Castro. What, does anyone know, did he...

Bill Brock's Lawyer Wins the Prize for "Best Brief" by samsloan
Bill Brock's attorney has just won the Sam Sloan Award for "Best Brief". I still think I can beat him (because I have a winning case, not because I can write a better brief) but I must give him credit where credit is due. Sam Sloan

Steinitz and God by ttk5079@gmail.com
In another thread, this quote from one Christopher Law was given: "Chess has traditionally been associated with insanity. Grandmaster Wilhelm Steinitz was incarcerated in a Moscow asylum where he played a game over an invisible telephone line with God. God Lost." This hoary old legend, like Morphy's shoes and others similar, seems to get embellished with each retelling. The above rendition...
