One theory is that men are physically stronger and more aggressive by nature and therefore better suited at a game that simulates warfare. Another is that the talent pool among women has not been big enough to produce many great chess players. That has been changing over the last 20 years. And the results of the Eighth Gibtelecom Chess Festival in Gibraltar, which ended on Feb. 3, seems proof of that change. The chess tournament had a strong field that included 35 grandmasters, 5 of them ranked among the world’s top 40 players. The festival offered special prizes for women, and ... |

It was no surprise that the planned tie up with Dubai fell through and the organisers responded to budgetary pressures by reducing the size of the field. The chess tournament will be a six-player double round all play all and I am delighted to see that Francisco Vallejo, one of the strongest players Spain has ever produced, has been invited back. Veselin Topalov will be aiming to recapture the number one spot from Magnus Carlsen while Alexander Grischuk the Russian chess champion returns as winner of ... |

As well as under-rated chess players there are also 14 of the world’s top 100 competing. After two rounds McShane has 1.5/2. The prize fund this year is € 180,000 and there are some qualifying places available in the World Blitz Chess Championship which will take place straight after the event. The Botvinnik Variation is a very sharp line which seems to defy all logic. Black loses a pawn, his kingside is wrecked and his king forced to run to the queenside. Despite this the second player often wins as ... |

Clems ——— Chess Grand Prix to end in May — The World Chess Federation (FIDE) has announced that the final Grand Prix tournament will begin May 5 in Astrakhan, Russia. The six-tournament series was supposed to conclude in 2009, but three of the six cities that promised to host tournaments backed out. FIDE deserves credit for finding replacements, despite the delay in the schedule. The Grand Prix offers a total of 300,000 Euros (about $410,000) to the top 10 cumulative scorers. Levon Aronian of Armenia, who won two tournaments and tied for second in another, has already clinched the first prize of 75,000 Euros (about $102,000). More than half of the 14 chess players in Astrakhan retain ... |

Je me souviens qu'elle m'avait battue 2 fois et a plate couture ;-)) Mais je me souviens surtout de sa gentillesse et de sa sympathie ;-)) A+ Thomas ;-)) ——— Gibraltar win puts Michael Adams back on top of the British pack — Last autumn Michael Adams lost the England No1 chess spot for the first time for a decade when his below-par results coincided with Nigel Short's purple patch. Adams used to be a world top-10 chess grandmaster but his poor run also dropped his international rating below the elite GM 2700 mark. This double reverse stung the 38-year-old Cornishman into adding a more incisive touch to his strategic game and last week he triumphed at the competitive Gibtelecom Open while Short struggled against the super-GMs at Corus Wijk. The outcome is that the live daily chess ratings today show Adams back above 2700 and Short below it. The old order is restored and, since ... |

| Posted by nottop nsa-hitachi.com 2/10/2003 00:24:43 Play online chess | coming to crunch Message: Just posted a message about the possible Gameknot vs IECC match 0 giving pros and cons. I hope all of you, my teammates will consider this. It's in the Gameknot forum. The match could do so much for Gameknot, but the terms and not what I would have preferred. I hope you will read this and give me your thoughts. I have great ambivalence about the match. Bur I rhink we're making a big mistake if we pass this match. IECC will likely not offer it again. I think this is a chance for Gameknot to expand to beyone what it was expected to be. |

Also now that I've only got 4 active team games could take some more games, however I'm about to move house and was going to postpone for a couple of weeks until I get set up. I'm wondering if it's fair to start new games and then postpone after 2 or 3 moves. Opinion? |

| Posted by nottop nsa-hitachi.com 2/16/2003 09:46:07 Play online chess | Team standings Message: Could someone tell me how team standings are calculated? Does a team do better defeating a weaker team than going even against a strong team? (ie - is it just total wins or losses - or is the strength of opposition a consideration?) Is there ever a team play-off? |
| Posted by v_glorioso12 nsa-hitachi.com 2/16/2003 14:09:49 Play online chess | team standings Message: is how many points a certain team makes. like, we have +28 points, so any team who has a team score of +29 or more is of a higher ranking than us. if any team has +27 or less, then they are below us. If this team and another are tied in points, i believe it goes by alphabetical order. There are no playoffs, the standings is just to show how each team is doing compared to other teams on GK. |

| Posted by pawnstar nsa-hitachi.com 2/24/2003 20:56:56 Play online chess | Im back Message: Does anyone know how to cancel all of your postponements? nottop makes a good point. In team play, just like individual play, you can go up the ladder by picking off low rated teams/players. The only difference here is that you get the same score whether your opponent is 1000 pts below you or 1000 pts above you, making the rewards for this 'cheating' greater in team play. |
