Saturday Afternoon Chess thread 10-09-2021

Sophia Loren Plays Chess


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



Pic Note:

Ms. Loren looks like she's thinking about moving her queen out on move 2. Never move your queen out on move 2! That's a rookie mistake.



Beginner Problem - White To Play (1436)

Goal: White can force mate in 2 moves
Hint: Deflect the Black King over one square

Advanced Problem - White To Play (1437)

A two part problem: How would you promote your pawn, and then, having done that, how would you gobble up Black's remaining pawns?

8.Bc8 Ke8
9.Kc7 Ke7
10.Bxd7 Kf7
11.Kxd6 and wins.

Hope to see you next week!

___________

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.
