(= 13+11 ) #4   (Read Only) pid=25036 (22) Posted by Jacques Rotenberg [Monday, Aug 7, 2023 21:19] Another development worth noting: Milan Vukcevich Die Schwalbe 1971 1st Pr. (= 11+11 ) 3# 1…Bc2 2.R×c2 [3.Qg1‡] 1...Bxd3 2.e3# 1...e5 2.Bg1# 1...Bxb4 2.Qxb2+ 1...cxb4 2.Rh1! 1.Rd1? blocus 1…Bc2! 1.Rh1? blocus 1…c×b4! 1.Rf1!! blocus 1…Bc2 2.Qe1! [3.Qf2‡] 1…c×b4 2.Rh1! Bc2 3.Qg1‡ complete block, two Bristols with "Bristol hesitation"   (Read Only) pid=25037 (23) Posted by Jacques Rotenberg [Tuesday, Aug 8, 2023 02:08] Here is the content of the two 4# of Brunner: In the 1911 version Erich Brunner Deutsches Wochenschach 1911 Dedicated to E. Delpy (= 11+11 ) 4# 1.Rb1? [2.Qf2‡] f×g3! 1.Rb1 is a self-block! (2.Qb1?? would solve and if 2.Qc1? Sb4! 3.Rxb4 Rxa7+!) 1.Rh1? fxg3! 2.Qb1 h6! and white has no waiting move! Thus : 1.Ra1!! 1...fxg3 2.Qb1 h6 3.Ra2! 1...h6 2.Rh1!! 2...fxg3 3.Qb1! 2...f3 3.Rb1! [3.Qf2#] in the 1953 version, you have the additional try 1.Qb1? h3! but the lack of the try 1.Rh1? is a big loss   (Read Only) pid=25041 (24) Posted by Zalmen Kornin [Wednesday, Aug 9, 2023 00:02] @Jacques: Many thanks for the excellent examples of mates in 4 with clearance combinations! (Brunner's I can't find here on my Breuer's 1800... Particularly inspiring (!) the 1911... getting those extreme to extreme movements was remarkable... @Marcos: Muito obrigado for starting this thread with this reverent alternative setting to the Healey classic... Does the (let's say) dehydrated setting - paradoxically!? - raise some (as A C White would say) flights of fancy... @Viktoras: Loyd and Turton appears in the story only because they were contemporaries of Francis Healey, equally interested in clearances... @Arno: Thanks for the examples, particularly for the 1957 Zhabrov * ... Well, anyway - maybe it's not simple to define what it is in words, but nobody can say it's nothing .
