Saturday Afternoon Chess Thread 12-07-2019

Viktorija Beinoraite 01.jpg
Viktorija Beinoraite (LIT)



Pic Note:

Viktorija isn't titled, at least not yet. Her FIDE rating is 1928, which, in the U.S., would make her a Class A player, one step below Expert and 2 below Master.

Shore is purty, though.

Moviegique will be along later with the movie thread. As always, the chess/dress pr0n thread is an open thread, so there is no such thing as an off-topic comment.

Here we see the wife of the most racist president in our nation's history assaulting two small black children. Probably for his amusement.

Note: that cryptic line of letters and numbers you see underneath each board diagram is a representation of the position in what is known as "Forsyth-Edwards Notation", or F.E.N. It's actually readable by humans. Most computer applications nowadays can read FEN, so those of you who may want to study the position, you can copy the line of FEN and paste into your chess app and it should automatically recreate the position on its display board. Or, Windows users can just "triple click" on it and the entire line will be highlighted so you can copy and paste it into your chess app.

So that about wraps it up for this week. Chess thread tips, suggestions, bribes, rumors, threats, and insults may be sent to my yahoo address: OregonMuse little-a-in-a-circle yahoo dott com.
