    Back in late 1967 as a 21 year old I played in a match for the Wimbledon Chess Club in the Thames Valley League. We played away against the Kingston Chess Club. Much to my initial chagrin I found that my opponent was a 12 year old. I soon discovered that he was an exceptionally strong 12 year old as he completely outplayed me and won the game quite easily. His name was John Nunn so I was not at all surprised by his later hugely successful chess career.

      @@lawdogwales5921 Ouch! describes exactly how I felt during and immediately after the game. Sadly, I do not think that I have the score of the game. But I do remember that I played the Scilian against his opening e4 and that he played an early c4, and that I was quite unable to stop him quickly seizing control of the centre and of the game. I was rated around 1600 at the time and achieved my peak rating of 2120 in 1973 when I stopped playing competative chess.

      @@lawdogwales5921 Two years after my game with John Nunn whilst I was an undergraduate at the London School of Economics I played in a match in the London League for the LSE Chess Team ( Economicals ) and found myself playing a teenager called Michael Steyn who later became a Grandmaster. At the time I had already heard of him and knew him to be a strong player so was not at all confident of a good result. Once again I had the Black pieces and the game progressed rapidly through a well known opening where I took every opportunity to exchange pieces whilst keeping a balanced position, This continued until we reached a rook and pawn ending which whilst equal in material was not ( in my view ) positionally good for me. I was not looking forward at all to having to defend a difficult R & P endgame when he surprised me by offering a draw which I immediately and gratefully accepted!

    I met Nunn at the Hamburg Wichern Open in 19970r 1998. He stayed with me. That was the norm back then - the foreign grandmasters found accommodation with the family of a member of a Hamburg chess club. To save hotel costs. At that time I had an ELO of only 1980 and 5 points from 7 games (an amazing amount). With 6 points I could have snagged a prize for the best non-titled out of the 9 rounds. He just advised me not to play for a draw - but to play "all or nothing". I did it. Lost in Round 8 but won in Round 9 against Häikonnen-a GM. I didn't care about the prize money I won. I had a tournament rating of 2290 and had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Nunn. A very imaginative GM - who could have gone much further - had he only been focused on chess. BTW-His result was 6,5 of 9-but is wasn`t enough for a price.

    I love your historically interesting accurate annecodotes & current news of players. Nunn is a genuinely nice guy too. He gave Murray Chandler & I a lift back to London from a tournament he probably won. It was an incredible time for English chess with Grandmasters popping up like roses from the the baron land of no GMs just a decade previously.

    IMO a thing that needs to be incorporated into engines is taking into account how many lines there are that lead to 0.0. There's a difference between when only one move keeps you in the game and when there are 10 moves that you can make and still not lose.

The best move for an intermediate player is different than the best move for an expert player, because the intermediate player will not be able to figure out all the follow-up moves that makes the expert's best move great. Essentially grandmasters are intermediate players and the engines are expert players now.

    @annaclarafenyo8185 Год назад +3

    A current engine could give this sort of evaluation with an analysis of imperfect moves and the depth at which they become imperfect. This can give a 'tree tightness' for both players, telling you how many moves from the ones selected by the neural network (so discarding the really stupid moves) are okay for each side. When one side has three valid options and the other side has only one response for each one, this should be given as a +3x advantage. This can be done with modern engines because they prune by neural network, so they discard the ridiculous moves at an early stage, before doing the depth-search.

    Sometimes chess can be like boxing. But at least in boxing the ref would step in to stop the fight after several unanswered blows, but not so in chess. You have to take blow after blow as did the hapless Mr. Beliavsky, and in the end you finish punch drunk. We've all been there.

    Dr John Nunn was and is one of the most important figures in English chess. Just to add Magnus Carlsen said about Dr Nunn "I am convinced the reason the Englishman John Nunn never became world champion is that he is too clever for that. ..He has so incredibly much in his head. Simply too much. His enormous powers of understanding and his constant thirst for knowledge distracted him from chess."
    In later years he has developed an interest in astronomy.

    @elpollolocoman119 Год назад +1

    Ehh, I like the honest evaluations of the engines that are indiscriminative. However, I do disagree with the engines being under the impression that the pieces should be given points. That was the upper hand Alphazero had over Stockfish 8, look up the reason why they gave that name to Alphazero. Alphazero's goal was to just win. Maybe too ambitious, if the game is either a draw or loss. However, its goal was to win. A very important concept it was given. Thus positioning was how it evaluated every game. With stockfish, it would give black the upper hand simply out of "material advantage", for just trading a bishop for a rook, with no immediate compensation for white. But as we remember how Tal to this day out calculated Stockfish 15, and found a forced mate, for white, when black had pass pawns, and up many points in material. The way Stockfish was built was a mistake. However convincing it may be, there is so much more to chess that we have to learn in every game. The new engine should be given a better philosophy so to speak. Anyways with these new quantum computers they are coming out with, who knows how strong the new engines will become. It's not only exciting that we will have "better" engines, but it's exciting that they could easily enlighten even the odd players or even congratulate them for the "strange" moves. At the end of the day, I still believe we humans are better and are more intelligent than the engines, but we burden ourselves with silly emotions, from bad experiences and we lead ourselves into a hole of dogmatic theory "inspired" by naïve ambitions and demoralizations.

      1. Kd1 Nxf2+ 2. Ke1 Nd3+ 3. Kd1 Rxf1+ 4. Kc2 Nb4+ 5 Kb3 Rxa1
      There are a couple of notes: 1) If white tries 2 Nxf2, 2...Rxf2 recaptures with tempo and 3...Rxf1+ is next unless 2 Qxf2 Qxf2, which is obviously insufficient; 2) Similarly, an alternative to 4 Kc2 in the main line is 4 Qxf1, which is again insufficient after 4...Qxf1+ and 5...Qxa1; 3) the toughest challenge to the main line appears to be 3 Qxd3 Rxd3 4 Bxd3. Black has a two-pawn advantage here and white cannot castle, but there's no forced loss in this position that I can see.

    Fun Fact: John Nunn was circumcised in his 20's due to his foreskin being infected by a gerbil. Whilst qualifying for the Gibraltar Open.

    #Suggestion -- anything from Wolfgang Unzicker -- the "world champion of amateurs". His peak rating of 2545 would have been in the Top 20 or 25 in 1985. Pretty impressive considering that ratings rise over the years.

    The King's Indian used to be one of the main defences against 1. d4. But computers don't like it so you hardly see it now at the top level. More boring lines like the Queen's Gambit Declined are in ascendancy now, which in a way is rather sad.
