Example Sentences
Earlier this summer I played Nigel Short, the world number three, at what chessers call a charity ‘simul’, or simultaneous display.
[…] a chesser of old, / Won a game in a shower of gold. / His move had the crowd floored, / And coins showered the board. / (They were paying off bets, I am told.)
Where are those principles of fair play that allow both sides a hearing? that give a move to each player in turn? and what neglect of a chesser's analytical powers to make up your mind and decision from the analysis of the moves only of the Attack, not regarding what the Defense can move in reply?
