King.Arthur.Brazil
Member since Feb-27-09 · Last seen Jul-09-25
Now, I'm 66y old chess player, live in BELO HORIZONTE, in the center of BRAZIL. I played chess early as 11y, was 5th in JR championship 75, won 2 university team championship as 4th board 1977/78, 2nd in classification of my state championship/1983, when gave up chess for a long time, playing music. I included some of this games as commentary in "my favorite games" for other games which are unimportant easy tied.

I had played some games against the CHESSMASTER program, and had won some games "simulated" masters by the computer, including FLOHR, SMYSLOV, RESHEVSKY, NIMZOVITSCH and CAPABLANCA; sure is not easy to do it! Of course I spend much time, trying to win, go forth, go back; but the game has more resources than me, so I guess that is correct that I have a chance to go back some moves, as the computer can see everything on 10 moves ahead, or maybe more. However, my CD had become damaged and computer cannot read it anymore; so I cannot play against Chessmaster again. This is very sad.

My favorite players are RUBISTEIN, ALEKHINE (when he was sober), SMYSLOV, BOTVINNIK, FISCHER, POLUGAEVSKY, KASPAROV and me, of course.

I have a lot of bad results in competitions, as I had never time to really dedicate my self to won a championship, but I have some beautiful games, including those with computer, where I had played very good the endings. Sometimes, with little advantage, of course computer never give up, only when checkmate happens.

I felt very glad to give some destiny for my games, although I doubt someone will have interest to see them. I reach 1800 kibitz, and maybe already reproduced more than 2200 games. I would like to play a real tournament. But I doubt so much about the chess play today, since anyone can use computer programs in cell-fone to find best moves, while your brain is boiling to do one single move. Maybe this will come to be the end of our noble sport. You are welcome to see my page, hope that you like. And for you all of Chess-games my eternal gratitude for let me being here during this good time. Thank you so much!

PS. I had placed "Mecking" here BEFORE, to homage him. However, seeing his coward match against Polugaevsky, I simply cannot applause. I removed and I'm certain of doing this. He was our best player, but I hoped something more from him.

King.Arthur.Brazil: As said "easy", the king chose 3...Bxg6 (it threats Rh7 which win the ♕, I love it!) 34. Nxg6 Nxg6 (again it threats to win the ♕ now with Rh8. 35. Qh5 Nxf4 36. Rxg7 Qxg7 or the W lose the ♕ or mate with Qg1.

King.Arthur.Brazil: The first variant seems easy: 23. Nf3 Qxh1 24. N3e5+ Ke7 25. Qc7+ Kf6 26. Ng4+ Kg6 27. Nxh8+ Kf5 28. Qe5+ Kxg4 29. h3+ Kh4 30. Qg3+ Kh5 31. Qg4+ Kh6 32. Nf7# or 27. Nxh8+ Kg5 28. Qe5+ Kh4 29. Qg3+ Kg5 30. Ne3+ Kf6 31. Qh4+ Ke5 32. Nf7#. The king guess that with 2♘ ...
 
   Jul-07-25 N Umudova vs S Sommer, 2006 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: The first idea is; 45. Rxh6+ Kxh6 46. Qh8+ Nh7 47. Re6+ Kg5 48. Qg7+ Kh5 49. Qh6# or 48. Rxf6+ Kg5 49. Qg7+ Kh5 50. Rh6#.
 
   Jul-06-25 Swiercz vs V Kunin, 2009 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: For the king, the tactics seems straightway: 29...Nxe2 (30. Rxd8+ Qxd8, with an extra piece), 30. Bxg5 Rxd1+ 31. Bc1 Rxc1#. Is it a Monday puzzle?
 
   Jul-05-25 E Sedina vs S Tqeshelashvili, 2003 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: The king saw this opportunity: 29. Qc7+ Rxc7 30. dxc7+ Ka8 31. Nb6+ Ka7 32. Rd8 Qf6 33. Ra8+ Rxa8 34. Nxa8+ Kxa8 35. c8=Q#. It works too: 33. Rxh8 Qxh8 34. c8=Q Qa1+ 35. Kc2 Nd4+ 36. Kd3 Qd1+ 37. Kc3 Kxb6 38. Bxd4+ Ka5 39. Qc5+ Ka4 40. Qb4#, but the way is longer. In case
 
   Jul-04-25 V Kunin vs T Burg, 2024 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: Big combination: 32. Nxf7 Rxd4 33. Nh6+ Kg7 34. Rxd4 Rxd4 35. Nxf5+ Kf7. At this point, it seems W would recover the ♖ with a dangerous passed ♙, but the king felt there's something more... 36. e6+! (ig 36... Kxe6 37. Nxd4+ and 38. Nxc2 got our enemy's ...
 
   Jul-03-25 L de La Fuente vs T Petenyi, 2019
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: The king saw the following possibility: 39...Nxd5 40. Bxe7 Nf4+ 41. Kf3 Nxd3 or 40. Qxd4 Qxg5.
 
   Jul-03-25 H M Klek vs S Papp, 2013 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: B could try 31. Qxf7! Rc8! 32. Nc5+ Rxc5 33. b3! Qa5 34. Rxc5 Nac2+ 35. Kb2... it comes nearly as the game but I guess here W is best. In the game line, may be due some time trouble, W could keep his ♕ with 37. Qg7 Rf2+ 38. Ka1 Nec2+ 39. Kb2 Ne3+ 40. Kc3 Rc2+ 41. ...
 
   Jul-02-25 D H Fernandez vs J Jackson, 2014 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: In king's point of view, the pin is like a knife to kill B: 33. Bc4 (Bd5 34. Bxd5 Qxd5 35. Qg7#) Rxc4 34. Re8+ Qxe8 (Or Qf8) 35. Qg7#. I don't see defense.
 
   Jul-01-25 H Matthey vs Uhlmann, 1983 (replies)
 
King.Arthur.Brazil: After the magic 26...Nde2! 27. Bxe2 Rxd2 28. Kf1 Nxh3 (2♖ x1♗) or 28... Rxe2 29. Qxe2 Nxe2 30. Kxe2 Qb2+ etc. I'm so sleepy today that I saw Qb1+ was stupid, that I even try another check... Nc2+ end.
