dial_100 Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 Guys lets post some nice moves here.. Give a picture and little explaination. If you could name the move then we all could learn from it. H4te, Tdi and Konda, Salil, Roshan, Chargers etc. You guys have lot to share... Please educate us... those $200 ICF worth nothing if we dont learn from this tourney. Here we go with my most favorite move ever.B-> The black Pawn moves 2 blocks Pf7-f5 The white Pawn moves across 1 block Pg5-f6 (called en passant move capture) That kills black Pawn Check to black and traps queen
h4te Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 My favorite move is the checkmate. More specifically, a move that forces mate in 27 moves. For example, d2-d4:
Mr. Wicket Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 Stop troaling and teach us something, oh undefeated one (in the league). :whack:
Nova Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 I am not a fan of blitz chess...it is like T20. While not a dumbed down version of the game but it lacks accuracy and purposeful play. - Email yourself the Yahoo chess history so that you can analyze your moves better with plenty of time to think. - Remember your positional needs: How many of your pieces are not taking part in the action? How will you move them into better squares? - I have used baiting quite a few times...that is to sacrifice a piece in order to capture a bigger opponent piece after a couple moves. This does not always work but even a stronger opponent will sometimes fall into this trap. - The two knight opening/defence is my fav one but I have used it sparingly. ZrhGXnXVEK4

h4te Posted May 30, 2010 Posted May 30, 2010 You guise wanna make this thread into a chess puzzle/tactics/strategy discussion thread :woot::woot::woot::woot::woot: I'll start off: Once you have mastered the basic tactics (forks, pins, skewers, etc.) and basic strategies (positional evaluation, pawn structure, open files, etc.), the hardest part is to calculate combinations and more importantly, to choose a right move. There are many ways of doing calculations. Over time, a player can just "feel" the right move. But I have found that a systematic approach, such as "forcing moves" from the book by C. Hertan, is the best for myself. The idea is simple. Consider the following position: There are many attacking options for white. How do we choose the right move? It is simple, make a list of candidate moves. Obviously, something like Rb5 for Rb6 is not a candidate move. And over time, you will be able to cut down your choices even more. The first step is to rank the candidate moves from the most forcing move to the least forcing move. The most forcing move is a checkmate, a double check, or a check, etc. Then, a crude definition of a forcing move is something that forces your opponent into a small number of moves (1 move being the most forcing). In this example, there are many candidate moves: 1. Rb8+ (...Kxb8 is forced), 1. Ra8+ (...Kb8 is forced), 1. Nb6+ (...two possible replies), so on and so forth. However, the most forcing move here is 1. Be5, which threats mate with 2. Rb8#. So, let's go with this move first: 1. Be5! Nxe5 (forced, because of 2. Rb8# mate) Now we have 2. Rb8+ or Ra7+ or Nb6+ as options. So, 2. Rb8+ Kxb8, and now there aren't many great forcing moves here. So, let's go with the next choice: 2. Rxa7+ Kb8 (forced, only option) 3. Rb7+ Kc8/a8 (forced, only two options) 4. Nb6# The idea is that, picking the most forcing options at each step was all that was needed. Here is another method, a lot of tactics book teach this way: We want to play Nb6+, this square has two defenders: the pawn on a7 and the knight on d7. The goal then is to remove these defenders.
dial_100 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Posted May 31, 2010 Very nice H4te... Now i think Nb6+ is really nice move but I would play this way, 1. Nd4 Nc5 2. Nxc5 Nxc5 3. Rxa7 Kb8 4. Nxc6# I think, this is a great idea... Lets post some nice tricky puzzles. Some easy puzzle could give more participation as well.
h4te Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Very nice H4te... Now i think Nb6+ is really nice move but I would play this way, 1. Nd4 Nc5?? Why would black make that move?

dial_100 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Posted May 31, 2010 Why would black make that move? Obviously to attack rook and bishop?? JK. please educate me bro
h4te Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Obviously to attack rook and bishop?? JK. please educate me bro Well, c5 is protected by the Knight on a4, so the fork doesn't work here. Black will trade knights with this move, and this doesn't harm white's cause because he has another mating move. So, this is not black's best response. The idea with the forcing move is that, you force your opponent into deciding between as few moves as possible. 1. Nd4 gives black many choices, while 1. Be5 gives black only one possible response. i like to kill the king with the horse
dial_100 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Posted May 31, 2010 I got that. See some how I can think moves for 1 complete player (my own) and half of opponent. Thats where I get surprises. I need to think of moves of 2 complete players. So if white plays Nd4. what could be black's next move.
DomainK Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 I like the modern way. I dont use my own resources so that I dont leave a back trail or any evidence incriminating me. I hire a private sniper to shoot the king. Game over.

I need to think of moves of 2 complete players. So if white plays Nd4. what could be black's next move. In this example, black is in a pretty hopeless position, even though black is up in material. But, the rook on h8 and d8 and the bishops e7 and e6 aren't really doing anything. While all of white's pieces are in a strong position, and the mate on the black king is imminent. Looking at it more, 1. ... Nc5 is probably one of the "better" options for black, but 2. Rxa7 finishes things off quickly. 2. Nxc5, I am not sure. I think black can hold on for longer, but white is still dominating.

jusarrived Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Chess moves should be spontaneous , I would never practice moves .
