Posted by andy94 mailcafe.net 10/30/2008 10:57:33 play online chess	Message: That move wants to earn a tempo. It threatens 5.c3 and 6.d4 to have got predominance in the center. But if you play white be careful to Lasker defence: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Ac4 Ac5 4.b4 B:b4 5.c3 Aa5 6.0-0 d6 7.d4 Ab6. or 5...Ac5 6.d4 e:d4 7.0-0 d6. These moves should advantage black and not white!

Posted by blake78613 mailcafe.net 10/31/2008 07:57:32 play online chess	Message: There is a lot of theory to the Evans, more than one could cover in a post. It is interesting to compare Morphy's and Anderssen's approach to the game. Anderssen always makes a threat when he moves, if the threat involves developing a piece it's a coincident, while Morphy makes a effort to develop a piece. While Morphy also likes to make threats he places a premium on development. If you Google the Evans Gambit you can find quite a bit of theory. I believe there are some articles at chesscafe.com which you should find when you do your search.

Chess news: Kramnik wins Dortmund, again -- ... Another former world chess champion, Anatoly Karpov of Russia, is painfully demonstrating that chess is a young man's game. Karpov, arguably the most successful chess grandmaster in history, suffered five losses and occupied last place at 1-6 with two games remaining in the 10-player round robin in Donostia, Spain. Karpov faces long odds in making a return to elite competition at age 58. The oldest chess players who compete regularly at that level are Boris Gelfand, 41, of Israel and Vassily Ivanchuk, 40, of Ukraine. In contrast, U.S. chess champion Hikaru Nakamura, 21, began with a fantastic 5 1/2 -1 1/2 . Nakamura lacks experience in international events, but this type of chess ... International chess news -- Hikaru Nakamura, the U.S. chess champion, and Ukraine chess star Ruslan Ponomariov tied for first in the grandmaster round robin in Donostia, Spain. Each scored 6 1/2 -2 1/2 , and Nakamura won a speed chess playoff to officially claim first prize. Nakamura, only 21, is already a legend for his skill at speed chess. In Donostia, he showed a mature style, winning most games after trading Queens. He plans to compete in two more elite chess tournaments this year. Karpov suffered almost certainly the worst performance in history by any of the all-time chess greats. ... A Chess Champion Who Has Grown Into His Title -- Hikaru Nakamura won the United States Chess Championship in December 2004, just before he turned 17. He was the youngest person to hold the title since Bobby Fischer, but his play was often too speculative or adventurous, evidence of an immaturity. In April 2005, playing White against Krishnan Sasikiran of India in the elite Sigeman & Company chess tournament, he trotted out 1 e4 e5 2 Qh5?!, a move he dubbed “the H-bomb.” He pushed too hard and lost. Five months later, Nakamura, again playing White, dropped the H-bomb on Andrei Volokitin of Russia in the final of the Lausanne Young Masters chess event in Switzerland. The game started 1 e4 c5 2 Qh5, and ...
