POOR MAGNUS, POOR TANIA, POOR HUMPY AND POOR ME!

Seems to be an out break of time loss.   Poor Magnus Carlsen lost a game on time just a few weeks ago, seemingly due to a misunderstanding about the time controls.

Now, two well-known female players have lost games due to similar reasons.

Must something to do with all the "Equality Laws."  If a male player looses on time then it is only fair for a female player to loose on time?

Back in January during the Gibraltar tournament I lost a game on time as well in sightly different circumstances.

Before the game I was able to look up available databases and found quite a few of my opponents games. So I was able to prepare well for the game.

There was a very good chance he would play Be7 on move 3 and g5 on move 8.

In my possession I have a Sam Collins DVD where he recommends meeting g5 with b4 on move 9 for white. He gives a very good overview of what to play for white.

It turns out this is how the actual game went.

Quite near the end of the game I was slightly ahead on time but my opponent accidentally knocked his own king over, so there was a little controversy.   

I think there is a possibility my opponent may have hit the clock when he knocked his king over so the controversy all took place while my clock was running. 

The arbiter saw what happened and came over and I said, "It is OK it was an accident, we will just play on." 

I never claimed the two extra minutes on the clock which I could have.

When I made move 48. Rxc8 my opponent said, "Your flag has fallen!"

So from now on there will be, "no more Mr Nice guy," If you knock your king over playing against me I will be insisting on my two minutes extra time! lol
The game is below.

I remember reading this poem years ago. A police officer found it in the pocket of someone who had just been shot dead.

“The clock of life is wound but once,
And no man has the power
To tell just when the hands will stop
At late or early hour.

To lose one's wealth is sad indeed,
To lose one's health is more,
To lose one's soul is such a loss
That no man can restore.

NOW is the only time you have,
So live, love, toil at will,
Place no faith in "TIME,"
For the Clock may soon be still.”  By Robert H Smith



Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

MINUS 11

Over the past few months I have discovered Fritz 13 Friend mode has been very helpful.  Lots of very interesting, practical endgame positions arise which require concentration to win a game with slight advantage, or draw a game with a slight disadvantage.

I have managed to get down to minus 11 for sustained periods on a few occasions but at the minute I seem to be stuck at 34.

This is a function on Fritz which I have never used before and I have been using the various Fritz programs for years. I wonder what other useful functions I am missing?

2 Corinthians 12:9
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect inweakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

GM PASTOR BEGBIE UPDATED

A while ago I wrote about GM Pastor Begbie.  The original post has now been updated because video clips of GM Pastor Begbie are now available.

This is clip one.


This is clip two.

Here is a link to the original post. CHESS WORLD STUNNED.

CHEATING? PARANOIA? NEITHER? OR BOTH? YOU DECIDE

Saw the first report about this earlier today from this website. It was posted on  Chess Club Live Facebook page.  Chess Club Live 

In afternoon time I then read this article which gives more background information.

At the moment, it seems to me like this whole situation has developed because no effective means were taken to stop or detect Chess cheating in it`s early stages.

It will be interesting to see what measures female players can cause to be implemented as angry, aggrieved, sleighed and possibly hysterical women can be incredibly persistent in getting what they want?

As a matter of fact all the women players would be better breaking away from FIFA and forming their own federation. They would probably draw a lot more sponsorship from  wealthy entities than FIFA presently does.


FIFA or FIDE what`s the difference?

Proverbs 21:9
It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.

Proverbs 25:24
It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.

HOW I BECAME A CHEATER AT CHESS

I have just read this fascinating article.

The problem dealing with cheating is failing to recognise that there are people who do not have a conscience so they are capable of anything,

1 Tim 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

HOW TO GET A 2200 RATING QUICKLY (This may not work for everyone)

I have discovered the most amazingly easy way to get a 2200 rating very quickly.  If you have a copy of Fritz 13 you may find this technique works for you as well!

Lately I have discovered my version of Fritz13 plays quite oddly if you set it to 2090 playing strength in Fritz rated games mode.

I must post some games here and let people make up their own minds.  It definitely plays a lot weaker than any 2090 player. Perhaps there is some sort of glitch in the source code?

Would like to hear others opinion on the matter.

Sample game 1. It resigned when I doubled after move 39.

Sample game 2. I blundered a piece away on move 15 and still won. A human player of 2090 would not have let me back into the game after such a mistake.

Sample game 3. In this game I am black. Even I could notice that it`s 12th and 13th moves seemed very odd. It resigned when I doubled after move 35.

Sample game 4. Black again, note the strange move 12 by white. It resigned after move 24.

LET`S PLAY A VERY DEADLY CHESS MATCH PART 3

Here is the solution to the problem in the last post.
The pictures below were snipped from a UTV video clip which was broadcast when Ian Paisley died. The video clips have since been removed from the UTV page.

The original footage was filmed on April 1998 at Stormont, as a protest took place against the Good Friday Agreement negotiations which were going on inside Stormont Castle.

When he was a young boy, the individual holding the orange poster was a resident of Kincora Boys Home, he is in fact a Kincora victim alleges Henry McDonald.

Henry also alleges he was the "boyfriend" of the alleged Demon Pastor aka Alan Campbell.

Beside the guy holding the orange poster is one Mr Paul Berry. In 1998 Paul Berry was an up and coming DUP politician who was just starting his ascent up the greasy pole of N.Ireland politics.

Many political pundits were tipping Paul Berry to become a future Unionist leader.

In 2005 Paul Berry quickly descended the greasy pole of N.Ireland politics when it was exposed in a local newspaper he had been visiting a male masseur for "massage treatment" in a hotel room.

Paul claimed he was only receiving treatment for a "sports injury." No one in the DUP seemed to believe him!

All in all a discerning person can see that the Kincora operation was still in progress right through 1998 and up until at least 2005, albeit in a modified form.

Why SC just happened to be filmed holding an orange poster with David Trimble`s name on it is anyone`s guess?? lol lol lol
