Second Spoil
Just had a lucky win over the top ranked player at table 44, two days ago. This player is the highest rating I have won against so far (1663, after match). Apparently the playing field is more leveled than I had expected, and anyone of my table could emerge victorious this round. A major blunder on his part tipped the balance in my direction. Since it was not won by out-maneuvering the opponent, I shall not post the whole game. In the end I got to play this very simple mate in 2 (moves) that should be solved within seconds.

Daily Chess Puzzle: Figure it Find it Finish it
Chess puzzles are a little like golf. You take a look at the positions, understand the "wind" and "terrain" and "slope" a little... and calculate your approach, choose your wood, aim and you tee off! These are fun, convenient, and progressively ranked according to difficulty. Try today's puzzles today! The EASY puzzle can be solved even by people who do not really play chess. The MEDIUM one is a test for beginners and can be interesting even for intermediate players. And if you can solve the HARD one, you are better than me! Enjoy.
