Bb2 delayed, Nf3-Ne5 usually, d4 certainly says
Compiled by fredthebear

Checkmate
by Dream Fisher

When you start, everything is wide open,
Your actions are completely limitless.
Hold onto that feeling for a moment.
As soon as you move, direction is created,
These moves have purpose even at random
Structure begins to form around them.
Are you a king? Are you a pawn?
Look closely, are they really that different?

I'll tell you the difference, if you'd like.
A pawn can move one or two spaces ahead
Some may make it to the other side,
But a king, a king can turn back if he wanted
For when he dies, that's the end of the ride.
With a queen going every and anywhere
And a rook keeping straight in his sights.
Remember, your actions are limitless
So when you move, be sure to move right.

Here's some more queen pawn variations of raking bishops and centralized knight ploys. Some are rigid Stonewall Attacks (with or without Bb2), but most involve an early c4 w/more flexibility. Sometimes it's Black that plays a reversed version of the Colle-Zukertort. The Krause defense 1.d4 d5 2.Nf3 c5 was popular at the turn of the century; White had a variety of responses.

Readers Advice: https://chess.stackexchange.com/que...

* FTB says openings are way overrated at the amateur level -- carelessness, violations of chess principle, blind ignorance, and playing move-to-move without planning ahead are the cause of many, many losses. Don't blame the opening! Gaining experience with typical re-occurring middlegame themes (replay the game links above) is far more important than opening studies. Black can equalize in other opening main lines if s/he knows theory; more opening "sophistication" is no guarantee for an edge for White.

The C-Z requires less theoretical knowledge than most, has active piece development, king safety, a sound center, and provides a devastating attack when Black gives away a tempo or two. The list of great players who have successfully used this approach speaks for itself. It's an opening for young beginners, old timers, busy folks, city champions, world champions, and aspiring contenders. There are numerous C-Z resources for assistance. Help yourself!

If one would rather play some other opening, that's certainly O.K. too -- but stick with the same opening through thick and thin and learn it well by playing over master games, preferably annotated master games. Trying a different "surprise" opening each month will only trick yourself. It takes time to build up the experience and knowledge of an opening guru. STUDY a variety of games w/different openings, but when you sit down to PLAY an opponent on your own, use the same tried and true opening you know best.

Another approach to acquiring an opening repertoire is to play over all the games of one particular player, and mimic that player (although that person may not have faced certain defenses due to trends of the day). Perhaps the queen pawn games of Harry Nelson Pillsbury, Frank J. Marshall, Edgard Colle, Savielly Tartakower, Akiba Rubinstein, Carlos Torre, Samuel Reshevsky, Mikhail Botvinnik, Bent Larsen, Julian Hodgson, Susan Polgar, Gata Kamsky, Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, etc., etc. would fit the bill. Not all, but just one or two players well studied. Amateur players tend to get quicker results by playing 1.d4, 1.e4, or 1.c4 exclusively, not all three.

* No, FTB has not played through all of this download, but it certainly looks educational: https://www.chess.co.uk/downloads/C...

Most players would do very well to study GM Richard Palliser's book Starting Out: Colle Zukertort, Barry, and 150 Attacks. The title is misleading; it's suitable for club players and national masters.

<<<Fundamental Chess Principles> according to CJS Purdy>

On Combinations

One simultaneous double threat is better than a great many successive single threats. That is the main lesson of chess. A double threat is a combination of two threats. (pg. 31)

A combination (threat plus restraint or threat plus obstruction) may be called a "net". It is the most important kind of combination because every mate, without exception, is a "net". (pg. 32)

Watch out for pieces of limited mobility, especially pieces without retreat. Remember that one retreat may not be enough.(pg. 32 / 33)

On Tied Pieces

An important rule for avoiding a trap is this:
Where feasible, avoid using a piece to defend something that is attacked. Either protect the attaced unit with a pawn or move it away. (pg. 34)

A knight is the worst defender because he cannot possibly maintain the defense if forced to move. (pg. 34)

The best protector is a pawn - for three reasons:

There is no possibility of it being attacked by a unit of lesser value; It is a complete defense against any piece bigger than the one attacked; above all, a menial task is suited to it, whereas a piece used for defending one particular thing is wasting its talents. (pg. 35)

If you must use pieces to protect something, perhaps because it cannot move away, try to use one more than necessary! You are then free to moe any one of the protectors; not a single one is absolutely tied to its defensive task. (pg. 35)

On Position Play

Position play is the art of improving your position in small ways when no sound combination is possible. (pg. 40)

One can say that an endgame has arrived when neither side has more pieces than the equivalent of Queen plus pawn (with of course, the Kings, who are always with us). (pg. 41)

Combinations are of primary importance, position play of secondary importance. (pg. 41)

Pages refer to where content can be found in Purdy's book "Guide to Good Chess".> Posted by Chessbuzz

I'm Popeye the Sailor Man
I live in a Garbage Can
I love to go swimmin'
With bow-legged wimmin
And swim between their legs
Swim between their legs.

Hydraulic engineering
In the late 19th century, hydraulic engineering solved a major problem: bringing fresh water into homes and sending sewage away from settlements. Although sophisticated waterworks existed earlier in ancient Rome, hydraulic engineering greatly improved wastewater treatment and sanitation in general. Infectious diseases caused by contaminated water were greatly minimized so countries like the United States and Britain could develop better.

<<<The Human Seasons> by John Keats>

Four Seasons fill the measure of the year;
There are four seasons in the mind of man:
He has his lusty Spring, when fancy clear
Takes in all beauty with an easy span:
He has his Summer, when luxuriously
Spring's honied cud of youthful thought he loves>

To ruminate, and by such dreaming high
Is nearest unto heaven: quiet coves
His soul has in its Autumn, when his wings
He furleth close; contented so to look
On mists in idleness—to let fair things
Pass by unheeded as a threshold brook.
He has his Winter too of pale misfeature,
Or else he would forego his mortal nature.
