If you have read through my previous game with him, In the Dentist's Chair, you will see that although he has a low rating, underestimate him at your peril. If you look in my annotated game which I have called Fool's Paradise, this game thoroughly emphasises the folly and the danger of leaving the Fool's Mate diagonal unprotected and allowing a damaging queen check on h4. The dentist's opponent, who had a rating more than 300 points north of him, was pulverised in just TWELVE MOVES!! In fact white could have resigned after just FOUR MOVES. How often do you see this kind of thing happen? Well, today is Friday so I hope you all have a nice weekend. Cheers and bye for now. Joanne

The world of chess is outraged that he could face a two-year ban. Professional chess player Vassily Ivanchuk, born in Berezhany, Ukraine in 1969, has been a grandmaster for the past 20 years and is currently ranked third in the world. The man with black hair and bedroom eyes is known as "Big Chucky" by his fellow chess players. Why? Because, after losing a game, he goes into the forest at night and howls at the moon to drive out the demons. Because he walks around in shorts in freezing temperatures. Because he likes to ... Magnus Carlsen quits Grand Prix -- The World Chess Federation (FIDE) plans to begin the third tournament of its Grand Prix series today in Elista, Russia. The first two Grand Prix tournaments were unqualified successes, featuring exciting chess battles between many of the world's top 20 grandmasters. The forecast for the rest of the series is less rosy. When organizers of Grand Prix chess events in Qatar and Switzerland backed out, FIDE President Kirsan Ilyumzhinov moved the Qatar tournament to his hometown of Elista and announced that Armenia would host a chess tournament. But FIDE also changed the rules, making the Grand Prix leader merely one of eight contenders in a tournament that ... Chess, by Lubomir Kavalek -- The defending chess champion, the Dallas Destiny, won the 2008 United States Chess League, a 14-team Internet competition that ended this month. Dallas's final match against the Boston Blitz was tied 2-2, but IM Davorin Kuljasevic won the title for Dallas, defeating former U.S. chess champion Larry Christiansen in the last game of the blitz tiebreak. An Attacking Gem. Before the match went into the tiebreak, Christiansen smashed IM Marko Zivanic with a powerful attack, most likely to be the best game of the competition. It matters to the Boston grandmaster how he wins. He created many beautiful combinations and spectacular sacrifices during his successful ...
