The Eighth Circle: January 2007
http://poe777.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 21, 2007. Survey: Why do you play chess? Post replies as comments. Answers may be as detailed, simple, serious, or humorous as you like. Monday, January 15, 2007. Beginning: 6 days, 600 problems! Most of the problems were pretty straightforward. A few, however, have inspired hour-long exhaustive explorations into the reasons behind every variation, especially logical-looking defensive moves that the opponent did NOT play. It seems that the "real" tactical program has for me begun tonight,...

Sir Piño's Chess Quest: Mate
http://sirpinochess.blogspot.com/2007/05/mate.html
Sir Piño's Chess Quest. Tuesday, May 1, 2007. The position below is from a game I played on FICS last week (I played the black pieces, black to move and win). I eventually won the game but I missed a nice mate:. Solution : 22 . Qf2! 23 Rg1 Rd1 24 Rxd1 Qxg2#. If the position was in a tactics workbook with "Black to move and mate in 3" written under it, you would have found it in no time. May 1, 2007 at 11:09 PM. May 1, 2007 at 11:17 PM. Oh yeah, I guess he could do that. Now I'm down a knight. Many so-cal...

The Eighth Circle: February 2007
http://poe777.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 26, 2007. So I started to get behind in my schoolwork as a result of behind too obsessive-compulsive about the details of the tactical problems I was working through. My brain overloaded, I started to get depressed, and I had to drop the chess program :-(. Saturday, February 3, 2007. On that note: I am nearly a month into my First Circle, not having missed a single day of training! Some of the exercises, I have found, are meant to be "felt" positionally: you make a move or sequence of mo...
