Chess news: The f-pawn, part 5: is this a good position to push forward? -- It it time for black to use his f-pawn as a battering ram? We saw last week that advancing the f-pawn can leave you horribly exposed at the back if the attack stalls. Here Black has removed the knight from f6, clearing the way for the battering ram. Is it wise to advance the pawn to f5? RB When playing against 1 d4 I will often go for a Nimzo-Indian (as in the present chess game) or King's Indian. I have a liking for the kind of kingside attack that can arise – with certain key differences obviously – from both defences. With the centre safely closed, Black has ... Enter the dragon -- David Howell was one move away from a fine victory in the eighth round of the European Individual Chess Championships at Rijeka in Croatia but a blunder on the last move of the time control gave his opponent Laurent Fressinet of France the full point. Howell also nearly won his ninth round game but was just foiled in the endgame. Michael Adams was lucky to hold a draw with the white pieces against Romain Edouard, a young French GM who impressed at Hastings. Adams was close to lost but after a time scramble he emerged a pawn down in a rook ending where all the pawns were on the kingside and ... Can Karpov Be President of Chess Federation? -- The former world chess champion Anatoly Karpov announced on Saturday that he was running for president of the World Chess Federation. Karpov is trying to unseat Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, who has been president of the federation (known as FIDE, its initials in French), since 1995. Ilyumzhinov is also the president of Kalmykia, a small Russian republic on the Caspian Sea. The federation president is elected for a five-year term, and there is no limit on how many times he (or she) can be re-elected. Karpov would not be the first ex-champion to serve as FIDE’s president. Max Euwe, the fifth world chess champion (1935-37), led the federation from 1970-78, a period of exceptional ... | |
