The King is a fighting piece. Use it! 

Wilhelm Steinitz

• Alias: General, Governor, Lord, Shah (Persian for King and origin of the word Check. “Shah mat” is Persian for “The King is helpless” and the origin of the word Checkmate.)
• Number: 1
• Starting Square: 1st rank, E file
• Motto: “I am Eternal!”
• Move: One square, any direction
• Capture: One square, any direction
• Speed: Slow
• Special Ability: Castling
• Material Value: Infinite
• Mobility Preference: Endgame
• Spiritual Value: Peace

• Verse: Luke 14:31-32 (KJV)

Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?

Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.

In the beginning was the King, and the King was with a King, and the King was a King.  He was with a King in the beginning.

Chess is a story of 2 Kings, who are eternal.  They cannot be harmed and are never captured.  While every other piece may leave the board, the Kings never will.

Since he cannot be hurt, he has no fear.  He will capture any enemy piece who dares to threaten him, but he never runs.  He deliberately moves only one square at a time in any direction he chooses.  However, he is wise.  He will not move into harm’s way and will get out of any trouble immediately.  Since the King shows proper respect to the other King, he will give way when they meet.  When the trouble gets too great he will lay down his kingdom to insure peace.

The King can be triumphant when he receives the surrender, or he can be humbled when he lays down his kingdom.  But sometimes the Kings just agree to a mutual peace.  Which King will you be?  You will have to play to find out!

Here is an example where my King lays down his kindom:

Anderson,Douglas -Anderson,Paul [C96]

9–10–6 Email,15.09.2001

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.0–0 Be7 6.Re1 b5 7.Bb3 d6 8.c3 0–0 9.h3 Na5 10.Bc2 c5 11.d4 Nd7 12.Nbd2 cxd4 13.cxd4 Nc6 14.Nb3 a5 15.Be3 a4 16.Nbd2 Ba6 17.Rc1 Rc8

This was the twenty-fifth email game I played with my dad.  I had about 3 years of tournament experience by now.  However, I didn’t realize what I was up against.  My dad had been caught up in the Fischer boom and was a regular on the Bell Labs chess team in the Chicago Industrial Chess League during the 1970s.

Bell Labs Dragons - 1970s

I think I was still experimenting with black openings, as this is not an opening I play now.  It is the Closed Ruy Lopez: Chigorin Defence (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4).  In my database of 763 tournament games, this opening appears zero times, and in my 53-game match with my dad this was the only time I played it.

Sometimes, a beating leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

Allowing my dad control of the c file was a poor choice but trading off the Queens in an endgame where he could activate his King and mine was helpless had to be the final nail in the coffin.

"After a bad opening, there is hope for the middle game.  After a bad middle game, there is hope for the endgame.  But once you are in the endgame, the moment of truth has arrived.”

Katie Did Me In

Game Of The Week

This week's game comes from Katie Wise, one of the top juniors and females in Colorado chess.  I first played her in 2009 just after I hit expert [2002], and she was at her low of 1206.  Since then she has skyrocketed, while I have only made modest improvements on my peak rating [2058].

Except for a streak of three games in 2011, I don't match up well against Katies.  My total combined record against all Katies is +5-7=0 for a winning percentage of 42%.  While that is not my worst amount of losses to a particular female name, it is very close.  Katie is only a half point behind the female chess name I hate the most!

Of course, there are twelve male chess names that top the female chess names in sticking me with losses over the chess board (losses, name):

42.0 JEFF
37.5 BUCK
22.0 JOSH
13.5 DAN
13.0 VIRGIL
11.5 BRIAN
9.5 DEAN
9.5 JASON
9.5 JOHN
9.0 ROBERT
8.0 ANDREW
8.0 MARK

So, I think just hearing the name of my opponent in my last game at the July Panera Wednesday tournament struck such fear in my mind that I was afraid to even play the simplest of moves.

White to move

White can just capture the Pawn on a7.  It is not even a tactic, except to Tim Brennan who thinks any move is a tactic.  It is chess 102.  After learning how to move the Bishop in chess 101, you learn that the Bishop captures the exact same way it moves.

Unfortunately, that knowledge could have helped me in this game.

3 Ms Of Chess: Material

Game Of The Week

When I started playing tournament chess, I read a pamphlet from GM Arthur Bisguier about how to improve at chess.  Since I had been crushed by him in a simul, I was more than willing to take his advice, even though I knew little about what a GM was.  He had a list of 10 principles to keep in mind when playing.  I thought that was a little too complicated for me to remember.

So, I condensed those ideas into what I considered the 3 strategies of chess.  I also wanted something easy to remember so I decided to use the trick of alliteration to make them even more unforgettable.  I called them the 3 Ms of chess:

• Mate
• Material
• Mobility

The idea was that every chess move was an attempt to accomplish one of these three strategies and provided an ordered thought process in choosing a move.

The 1st priority chess strategy (Mate, https://cschessnews.blogspot.com/2013/05/3-ms-of-chess-mate.html) was to protect your King from checkmate.  Once you decide your King is not in harm, you can strategize about getting your opponent’s King.  However, in most chess positions checkmate is a long way off.  So, now what do you do?

The 2nd priority chess strategy (Material) was to gain a more powerful army than your opponent.  This idea involved not only a simple piece count, but also the understanding that each piece has a different value.

Piece Values In Chess:

1. Queen = 9
2. Rook = 5
3. Bishop = 3
4. Knight = 3
5. Pawn = 1
6. King = Eternal

I quickly learned to grab up the pieces my opponent was giving away and hold on, as tight as I could, to mine, but also I used this simple chart to calculate the success of piece trades.  Trading a lower value piece for a higher one was almost always the right move.

I learned that even a one Pawn advantage could be the difference in the game.  The special move a Pawn has, called Promotion, is probably the most decisive way to gain a material advantage.  In one move you typically gain 8 points of material (Pawn + Promotion = Queen; 1+8=9).  The more Pawns you have versus your opponent just means more chances to promote.

Here is an example:

Anderson,Douglas -Anderson,Paul [B12]

7-7-3 Email,17.05.2000

1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 c5 4.dxc5 e6 5.Be3 Qa5+

Black to move

This could have been called the Anderson variation since I played it a lot in my beginning days of chess.  However, the lack of success I had with my own idea killed any chance of this opening catching on.  Here I just give up a Pawn with no clear plan to get it back.

“In a gambit you give up a Pawn for the sake of getting a lost game.”

Samuel Standige Boden

6.Qd2 Qxd2+ 7.Nxd2 Nc6 8.Bb5 Nge7 9.c3 g6 10.f4 Bg7 11.Ngf3 0–012.Kf2 Nf5 13.Bd4 h5 14.g3 Bd7 15.Bd3 Nfe7 16.Rae1 a5 17.h3 f6 18.exf6 Bxf619.Kg2 Nf5 20.Bf2 Kf7 21.g4 Ng7 22.g5 Be7 23.Nh4 Nf5 24.Nxf5 exf5 25.Nf3 Bd8 26.Re2 Bc7 27.Kg3 Rfe8 28.Rhe1 Rxe2 29.Rxe2 Re8 30.Rxe8 Bxe8

Another idea about Material strategy could have helped me in this game:  Trading pieces favors the player with the material advantage.  Here I trade off all the big guns in my army.  This makes it harder to create tactics to regain my Pawn deficit.  A better approach is to trade Pawns not pieces when behind in material.

While the simple piece value chart has served me well, even up to this point in my chess career, I understand it is subjective.  The value of the pieces does vary based on their position on the board. Clearly, a Pawn on the 8th rank is more valuable than one on the 2nd rank.

“A passed Pawn increases in strength as the number of pieces on the board diminishes.”

Capablanca

31.h4 Ke6 32.Bb5 Bd7 33.a3 Na7 34.Nd4+ Ke7 35.Bxd7 Kxd7 36.a4 Bd8 37.b4 Nc8 38.Kf3 Ne7 39.b5 b6 40.c6+ Kd6 41.Ke2 Bc7 42.Be3 Nc8 43.Kd3 Ke7 44.Nf3 Ke6 45.Kd4 Bd6 46.Ne5 Ne7 47.Nd7 Bc7 48.Kd3 Nc8 49.Ke2 Bd8 50.Bd4 Bc7 51.Kd3 Bd8 52.Be5 Nd6 53.Bxd6 Kxd6 54.Kd4 Bc7 55.Ne5 Ke6 56.Nxg6 Bd6

With an army that is only larger by one Pawn, it is not going to be a quick win.  However, my dad finally breaks through and gains a second Pawn.  At the top levels of chess, two Pawns are winning.

57.Ne5 Bc5+ 58.Kd3 Bd6 59.g6 Kf6 60.Nd7+ Kxg6 61.Nxb6 Bxf4 62.Nxd5 Bd6 63.c7 Bxc7 64.Nxc7 f4 65.Ke4 1–0

To finish out the game he used the threat of Promotion to reduce my army to almost nothing.  If that had been his last Pawn, I could have salvaged a draw.  However, trading off his pieces and not his Pawns left me in the helpless position of facing multiple promotions.  I chose to raise the white flag.

“Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.”
