I finally came up with an idea for the Win 'Master Chess.' competiton
and what to do with a goldfish bowl and all these chess sets I have.

It is the first correct wins answer and Russ also has the answer so if
a winner comes from the U.K. (to save me postage.) then it's all above
board. This one is open to the entire planet. Good Luck Everyone.

One guess per player and if it is not won then the closest guess by the 10th February wins.

Next is a smashing study from GM. Jon Levitt. White to play and win.


(White, as always, is playing up the board. The solution is in the blog)

Then how I came up with the name 'CapaTal Chess' for my chess fanzine.

An endgame by Schlechter and RHP examples of us screwing it up.

Good on you for eliminating the clutter you don't need. I'll skip your exercise, since I have more than enough things to study.

JMHO - Keep 2 of your best boards and sets of pieces. In addition to your goldfish bowl, you might throw in some of the old books and magazines you've not used in years. Judging by the photo you posted here before, that might clear up some table space for you. Please don't give away that Beatles poster - there some things that can't be improved on! 🙂

Update to prove I'm watching these numbers come in.

Nobody yet has yet posted the exact number.
It is first correct answer. wins. I've been asked what happens if come the
10th of February one player is 2 short and another player is two over.
Who ever posted the closest first wins..
