My post above should of read:
1. D4 (Corona white) 2. C5 (davidlai blk) 3. D5 (Corona White) 4. Nf6 (Magnus blk) and my move will be... 5. NC3 (Corona white) My apologies for the oversight, Corona. |

The Daff here was the world's number one chessaholic..played a few thousand games against some fine software...played on world chess network and gameknot...but sadly. after the death of my wife in Nov, the chess I once loved suddenly became drudgery. I haven't touched it since.
The difficult must become easy, the easy beautiful and the beautiful magical.

I've mostly given up serious chess for serious bridge, but I have a USCF rating of a bit over 2100...sometimes I dust it off and play serious chess. I also goof around with speed chess on ICC (internet chess club: http://www.chessclub.com). With white, I generally play e4, and with black, the Najdorf Sicilian against e4, and the Dutch or King's Indian against d4.

Wow, dusted off a blast from the past thread. In 1985, I was the 8th most active tournament player in the United States Chess Federation.

Reading? Don't talk crazy!
Here's a simple puzzle. White to move and mate in 2.  Experts and Masters: give the beginners some time to solve before you blurt out the winning moves!

Hint: The solution is not 1. a4.
On another note, Magnus, you are quite right about "fianchetto."

I've created animated and static chess games on another forum before, with the Kings being an animated version of the players.
