Beloved, now are months that I did not write anything in this blog, but are not dead yet, despite some of my detractors might feel sorry, and then ...
tell you a story quite interesting chess, where you can also
you identify with and play an active role.
About twenty years ago now, when they were about to organize their world match, the two K (Kasparov and Karpov) were in London and met the director of "Chess Base", which did not miss the opportunity to
put a small but intriguing little problem for Mr. Kasparov Chess:
"A GAME BEGINS AND ENDS WITH THE FIFTH 1.e4 MOVE WITH CXT (Torre Cavallo x)
checkmate". REBUILDING THE GAME.
Kasparov, who did not know what do during his stay in London, Karpov exposed to the problem and the two spent several hours in the afternoon in their rooms, to seek a solution.
But when they found themselves for dinner, neither of us had realized something!
The next time you had to fly to Moscow and then to
Kasparov was handed an envelope to take with them, which would have to write the solution. Kasparov, a little 'interdict, took the bag and continued to think about the seemingly simple problem, then once he went to Moscow at the famous Botvinnik school "and explained to the students (all Grand Masters) this problem with the intention of them' a bit of "liberation." But
even the school Botvinnik found this solution.
passed another day and Kasparov, angry, picked up the phone and called the director of "Chess Base" dicedogli: "The problem is impossible! Have given me an insoluble problem", in that calm, the man on the other part of the continent and reeled off the solution after a few seconds of silence hung Kasparov.
Can you now, you solve this simple and obvious question that chess has put in an uproar three world champions?
No trick or deceit, after the first move 1.e4, the game must move with the fifth concuderesi capture Torre Cavallo, checkmate.
