Infohunter
Member since May-29-03 · Last seen Jan-18-21
I've been on the lookout for bits of chess information ever since I started collecting literature on the game back in 1972. Yes, the Fischer-Spassky match is what started it all! At any rate, I can see that I've come to the right place, both for giving and for receiving chess information online.

Infohunter: <al wazir> After 9. Kb3 Qxe4 White seems to have something of a better way of repelling the attack with 10. a3, e.g. 10...d5 11. exd6 Bxd6 12.Ka2 Be6 13. Nc3, and now what does Black have?

Infohunter: Instead of 39,,,Qc6+, why not 39...Bd5+? Am I missing something?

Infohunter: <WhiteRook48: 5. g3 probably dealt with the check better> Well, since it leaves Black "only" the Exchange up, I suppose so (5. g3 Bxg3+ 6. hxg3 Qxh1).

Infohunter: <Cheapo by the Dozen: ...If [Black's] king advances, f4+ mates quickly, Black's ability to capture en passant notwithstanding.> 43.Nf7 or 43,Ng6 mates on the move.

Infohunter: <Phony Benoni: <1.e4 Nc6 2.f4 f5 3.e5 g5!?> A profound positional concept, but it has certain tactical weaknesses.> Yes, certain ones.

Infohunter: <Phony Benoni: Yes, White promoted the pawn. There is a mate-in-two available, but it's not trivially easy to find.> I did find a mate in three without too much trouble, viz., 43.b3 axb3 44.d8=Q b2 45.Qd3# or 45.Qd5#. But I did not find the mate in two on my own. That's not
