Subject: Gerry K , unleashes the " Scotch " opening aginst Karpov , WCC ,
I4 ...I990 WCC match ...Gerry white and Karpov black..

This opening has occured one hundred years ago in Steinitz's vs
Zukertort I886 and Chigorin I892 .....

This opening had never been played by Gerry in compition , so this was
a suprise to Karpov..
Karpov has defended aginst the Scotch 7 times very successfully + 3 -
0 = 4 ..Vs Korchnoi , Timman , Ljubojevic and Sax .....But Karpov
would still have time trouble in the game..
Of course the world champion Gerry K , had found some new ideas in
this ancient opening.
Very early in the game he sacrificed a central pawn , firstly , to avoid
theoretical paths , and secondly to begin active play as soon as
possible . Black in turn , chose a plan of active counter play ,
returning a pawn but achieving a powerful centralisation of his forces
.
This was genuinely a open game .For the first time in the match
both Kings , which had castled on opposite sides came simultaneously
under mating threats . Gerry and Karpov played brilliatly , one recalls
how clever switching of the white Queen from one flank to the other via
it's deep rear guard 32 , Queen to F-I , was applauded by the experts
in the press center.
One of Gerry's seconds Zurab Azmaiparashvili rated this game as one of
the best in the match.

Well, just for the record, in my analysis of a very
famous game between two world champions, even
Rybka failed miserably and could thus have been
successfully swindled.

The position had many pawns remaining on the
board, and one of the key ideas -- perhaps the
central idea in fact -- was that of the defender
being able to draw despite being a piece down,
because a Rook-pawn cannot forcibly be pro-
moted if the Bishop does not control the right
square and the defender's King manages to get
there in time.

As even many "Class C" players are aware of
this problem, I was quite disappointed to see
the great Rybka so easily founder and sink into
the depths of the Dumbthian Sea... .

I heard piano as something like "bigpela him live in frontrum, you

Wouldn't it be easier to learn the word "piano"?

Ages ago I saw a dictionary of pidgin English. Had some very
colorful terms, for example a violin was "scratch 'em on belly, make
noise allasame pussycat," and a piano was "hit 'em in teeth, make
noise allasame pig." I wonder how chess terms might come out. Would a
knight fork be something like "Hos him jump over banista, stick 'em up
two fella"?

In Nggatokae in New Georgia, where chess is part of the initiation
ritual, chess is called, "Big fella him lie down you win", and the

King =3D Bigpela

At the risk of seeming overly pedantic (a risk some say I often
run), I would just like to mention that "Springer" does not mean
"horse" in German. It means "jumper" or "leaper," and it refers to the
jumping move of the knight.
The names for chess pieces in different languages do not all have
the same meaning. Sometimes they do, e.g. the English "king," German
"K=F6nig" and French "roi," or the English "knight" and Italian
"cavaliere." But what we call a bishop is in German the
"L=E4ufer" (runner), in French the "fou" (fool or jester), and in
Russian "slon" (elephant, IIRC).
The German for horse is "Pferd," and for knight "Ritter."

There's a rule of thumb that if you're more than a pawn down against
Fritz in a balanced position, you should resign. I observe this rule
with Fritz, but not against non-Fritz online opponents.

Well in German Springer means Horse (thus the horse logo on Springer
Publishing, which does academic textbooks), and the symbol for horse
is an "S". Don't know about the "K" however.

My friend, at the lower levels there may be a
good number of folks who attempt to hang on
to such a pawn, thinking its loss could cost
them the game. Such players may well fall
for a memorized trap, convincing some of the
"merit" of wild gambits, with their accompany-
ing traps and zaps.

But at the higher levels, the gambit of a
pawn like this is the bread-and-butter of the
trained professional, as well as the better
amateurs (and a few brave explorers). As
can be seen in innumerable games at Get-
Club, the loss of the e-pawn in particular
can lead to "very interesting" results, such
as the quick win of a Knight, for instance.

As I observed many years ago, what often
works best is getting the partly booked-up
opponent out of his terra cognita, so that
he must rely -- in some unfamiliar type of
position -- on his own judgment and his
own calculative powers. The drawback is
that it may well happen that the opponent
finds good moves, whereupon you yourself
land in the same situation you had hoped
would confound the enemy!

Anyway, in my own games with those who
brandish fancy chess titles and laurels, it
has been most enlightening to see what
happens on both sides of the board, once
the known roads are left behind and the
horses must find their own way. Some
would say that tactics always prevail, if you
go by my experience in this vein; but in one
case I had to defend a theoretical ending,
and this required my having already mas-
tered that particular ending.

In fact, looking this over on my computer
at home afterward, I was disappointed to
see that I would have lost it to Fritz, but
luckily, my titled opponent was in no mood
to play tricks-and-mirrors, having become
accustomed to the practice of openings
battles with TNs as weaponry.
At the lower levels, of course, there are no
rules which forbid trying to win the theoreti-
cally drawn game; nor for that matter, trying
to win the lost game-- as I often have.

Another good line in the Scotch - for Black - is the 4...Qh4 line.
Black plays to win the pawn on e4, and he normally succeeds.
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 exd4 4. Nxd4 Qh4 5. Nc3 (5. Bd3?? Nxd4) (5.
Nxc6 Qxe4+
6. Be2 Qxc6) 5... Bb4 and now white can try to hold the pawn with 6.
Qd3.

It's named for its appearance in the famous London-Edinburgh
correspondence match of 1824-28. Actually, both sides used it, but
because the Edinburgh team won the match it came to be called the
Scotch. I suppose if London had won it might have been named the
English Game.
Blackburne did play (and drink) the Scotch often, but he didn't
start to make his mark in chess until about 40 years later.

None of whom actaually drank scotch. Thus,
the question arises, why is this opening not named
for it's foremost advocate, Mr. Blackburne-- a man
whose devotion to the scotch is undeniable?

Of course. And one might well wonder /why/
Mr. Kasparov was looking for something new to
play. My guess -- and I say guess because it's
been too long for me to still recall -- is that he
was having some difficulties with Mr. Karpov's
Breyer System in the Ruy Lopez, or perhaps
with AK's Petroff.

I am reminded of the tendency of the talking
heads of the time to refer to Mr. Karpov as a dull,
boring positional player, deliberately ignoring his
open style (FYI: open game =3D 1. P-K4 in the old
book lingo), such was their overwhelming bias.

True or not, the word on this old-style opening
was that it allegedly offered less opportunity to
hang on to an edge for White. Many of the old
lines were so heavily analyzed that they were
thought to offer "easy" (ha!) equality to the well-
booked player.

How thematic! The old are pushed aside, not

I'm certain that Sanny will understand them
perfectly, but as for PGN-pasting, it's hopeless.

One of the best chess books I've run across
had been "translated" much like the above text;
it was so bad, it made me think, deeply, about
each and every move, just to see if I had
managed to re-interpret the botched notation
correctly. Well, it was too much work to go
through the whole thing like this, but those
portions I did examine were quite instructive.

Yes, I think you wrote them correctly. Thank you.
Garry K won his next game as white which was also a Scotch; but it
took 102 moves.
The odd thing is that GK's score with the Spanish against Karpov is
really good; overall I think it is +7 -1 and quite a few draws.
Perhaps GK switched to the Scotch just for a change. There is nothing
wrong with the opening.
