noreply@blogger.com (WigstonChess) — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 07:26:00 +0000

A great result last night v Loughborough 1 to win 4 - 3.5

We will play either Heathcote 1 or Mkt Harborough in the final.

More chess tactics

noreply@blogger.com (WigstonChess) — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 15:21:00 +0000

If you fancy testing yourself with more chess puzzles, there are six puzzles from the recent Corus tournament, for your entertainment, here:

http://www.chessbase.com/cbm/cbm134e/cbm134-12/index.htm

There are quite humorously done, and I especially like the one with a windmill followed by a skewer...

Have fun!

Wigston 3 match against Scraptoft Valley 2

noreply@blogger.com (WigstonChess) — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 09:38:00 +0000

Played last night at Scraptoft Valley:

1 Tate, Michael 154 0-1 160 Dodds, Iain
2 Collins, Bob 143 0-1 160 Galyov, Ed
3 Pratt, Dave 125 0-1 143 Watkinson, Phil
4 Busby, Michael 120 0-1 150 Smith, Stephen
5 Adams, Mick 118 0-1 130 Daniel, John
calculated score------ 0 - 5 --------------------

An excellent result by the team. Iain, on Board 1, refused two draw offers from Mick Tate and concluded a very convincing king side attack to win.

Here is the critical position - see if you can predict Iain's next move:

Ed won a pawn in the middle game, then brought on the hoover to take off the remaining pieces, leaving a simply won pawn endgame. It all seemed very straight forward for the Russian master.

My game, on board 3, was quite the opposite. At one point, I missed a neat tactic which meant I was a whole rook down for no compensation. Luckily; very luckily, my opponent then decided to help me get back into the game with a period of bad moves giving me first a knight, and then the game.

Stephen always seems to have the upper hand in his game, but his opponent would not give up easily, and the game was the last to finish as Stephen shepherded a pawn home.

John also seemed to have the upper hand in his game; but was able to convert it to a win quickly.

Well done everybody,
Regards,
Phil.

Chess Puzzle

noreply@blogger.com (WigstonChess) — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 16:24:00 +0000

Hello everybody,

This puzzle is also from one of my games - but I happy to use other peoples games if you have a nice tactic to show off. In fact, the position is from my last game, part of the key Wigston 2 v Heathcote Arms 1 match. The match was going to be very close, with 2 games already agreed a drawn by the time this position appeared on the board:

[ Mike Cowley (148) v Phil Watkinson (143)] [Black to play and win]

I had been playing sharply, and up to now Mike had not been able to castle. The thing about playing sharply is that you must continue to play sharply until you have achieved a winning game. The loss of initiative in these knife-edge positions can easily lead to a lost game.

A win for Black would mean a won or drawn match for the 2nd team, securing their place in the Division 1, and more importantly probably giving the 1st team the Division 1 Championship. No pressure, then.

Black to play and win. To get the best out of this puzzle, you need not only to spot the first move, but to treat as a calculation exercise, and see how much of the variations you can find. There are two main variations, one of which is quite forcing so you could probably get quite far.

Have fun,
Phil.

Answer to Chess Puzzle

noreply@blogger.com (WigstonChess) — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:20:00 +0000

If you haven't seen the chess puzzle yet, quickly scroll down a couple of posts and give a try; because here is the answer.

The correct response to 12. Qxa5 capturing a knight, is : 12. ... Qc8:

(Please note I have turned the board round from the usual layout, because I was playing Black).

If you got this, there are three points to be awarded, one for each reason why this is a good move:

1. Give yourself one point if you saw that moving the queen frees up the square d8 for the bishop to attack the queen.
2. And give yourself another if you saw that moving the queen to c8 defends the last flight square of white queen, a6.
3. Lastly, and this is the difficult one, that separates the men from the boys, award yourself a third point if you recognized that the only way White could release his queen would be to return the knight with: 13. Nxb5 cxb5. This then provides Black's queen on c8 the open c-file, and the check at c3, winning a rook. This is this threat that prevents White simply taking the (second) b pawn, ending up with 2 pawns and a probable winning position:

This is how far I had looked when allowing white to take my knight on the twelfth move, and I was happy at the time to go into this position a pawn down, but with chances to trap White's queen, and plenty of activity.

However, when we got to the position (as the graphic above) I got really worried with White's reply 14. Bd2 a6, threatening 15. Rc1. But my opponent told me after the game that I would simply take the rook: 15. ...Qxc1! 16. Bxc1 Bd8 and I would end up with the exchange for a pawn.

So the game continued instead: 14. O-O a6 15. Qb6?? (a "50% move", which allows the Black queen to escape to c5 if I move the bishop, or to go to a7 if I move the rook, but there is a third piece I can move....:)
Nd5! 0-1.

Hope you liked that one.
