hi,
didn't find a thread related to chess, so started this. loves chess.excellent game.
fave player:ofcourse vishy(who else?)

btw do ya know any good chess site or book fr standard techniques.my game is wholly mine and not based on standard moves.
also do they ask qns on chess during interview if u say its ur fav??????????

definetely pal.They can ask anything from cooking to pottery.BTW guys how come these panelists seem to know everything from the quran to cooking.Has anyone bluffed in the past and got away with that?

iam a great fan of chess as well....

used to play it till juniour college....

don't play it now though....

but am a great fan of anand and kasparov...

hey nice to hear that Dharam ..
so u still following Anand's career or have given up on him topping the charts...

care to come online sometime for a game ?

P.S. .. common sense says that odds are on favor of one of the interview panelists being an old hat at chess. So, unless u sure of ur game & its nuances.. dont take a risk coz u used to beat ur younger cousin a zillion times.
idea is to be offbeat .. fake it if u can carry it well .. some I hv heard of are 'Russian History Lovers' & 'Penchant to collect company Logos' & making it to iims

How can that be true Dharam?
For example, why do you think we still follow every post of yours? 😃

tussi great ho....tussi great nahi maha great ho...Bade buzorgon ne kaha tha every mortal has to be proud of his ideals and dirty underwear..after all they serve when u need them the most.... guru, bahut sahi..!! 😐

u must...u must...in fact we all must follow every move that our favourite sports icon take...u choose Anand, i choose Anna Kournikova...afta all, kitna Anand hai unke peeche..!!

galat baat hai DHP....we have to see to that alternate games like Shatranj and Hockey prosper in our country....we really hold ardent fans like u in high esteem...

Yahoo chess ofcourse!

I thought I play good chess until I started playing at Yahoo!
People are really maniacle there(I am talking about the Advanced lounge). They beat you with only 2-3 moves!

Well I really cudn't take loosing all the time.
So i got a chess book.
"Ultimate guide to build strategies from basic to advance"( I m not sure if the title of the book is perfect, words may be here n there) - By Bruce Pandolfini (Rs. 486/-)
Now, I think i am better:smile:

Are there any one from bangalore?
I want to know if there are any chess clubs that organize chess tournaments.


regs,

so Gary kasparov retired . lets have discussion on that.
well in the end he proved he was the best, 8/12 in the linares tournament
ia an awesome score,if only anand could have capitalised in his good position
with white against gary cud the result have been different.....

yes adieu ! to the best chess player of his generation,unarguably ........ and he signed it off in style......this is the stuff what champs r really made of 😃 ........though he was very controversial throughout and was also instrumental in breaking the fide , still a champ is champ and will always remain to b so 😃

cheers !!!
vishu.

A very sad day for the game of chess. Hope Kasparov re-considers his decision and the mess in chess world that FIDE and players ego has created comes to an end.

King Kasparov still rules...very unlikely we will see someone like him again.

I seem to be a jack(ass) of all trades, obviously, master of none....

People here seem to have forgotten this thread. I did a search and got this for lovers... ahem... chess lovers.

Now, peepz, cud u let me know if there are some online resources to LEARN chess? I know some old indian chess, but i am definitely not great at it. Now, I think I should learn to read chess moves.... like they give in newspapers: a4, r5... some crap like that...

help me guys!! I feel as if I don't have anything to rattle off b4 the interview panel (yeah... i know I have to clear CAT first).
