Fischer's 60 Memorable Games

12/20/2010

3 Comments

 
Below see the dust jacket first edition of Fischer's 60 Memorable Games printed 1969.  Thanks goes to Mark Trevor Smith, the original owner, and Will Starnes, for passing the edition onto me.  I will cherish the book and while it does not offer anything in the way of chess knowledge that we cannot get from the newer edition (I have that, too, with algebraic notation) it does represent why this chess club was founded and what people hoped to get out of the game.  While I do not know all that many people I would call accomplished chess players (unless you've reached some sort of titled status) there is nonetheless a plethura of people who think they are accomplished. So, if nothing else, read and go over 4 or 5 of the games and ask yourself:  could I have come up with such splendid plans, defenses and attacks against the world elite?  If not, perhaps it is time to be humble, sit back and enjoy the game, your opponent and dream of one day understanding the game and all its complexities.


In the next few days I will add a game or two from this publication and you can view them here or in the Games section.  Please check back for the selected games.

Is gambling at online casinos safe? This question has been asked since the first online casino games were introduced onto the internet. Concern about the ethics of online gambling sites was first raised in the late 1990's when several dishonest gambling sites created havoc in the industry.

Online casino games are brilliant invention that completely transformed the field of gambling. They enable people to gamble with less commitment of time, money and inconvenience than before. Comparing online casino with land casino is like comparing apples and oranges, each appeal to different aspects of a player's game.
