That leaves 4 questions unanswered, they are;
4.What is "Siamese Chess"?
I am surprised, nobody gave the answer yet. It is besides of Blitz the most popular variant of chess in the clubs. I think, all club-players should know this one.
6.Which Junior World Chess Champions became also W.C.C.?
Bobby Fischer was mentioned, but is incorrect, he never was junior champ. The correct answer includes 4 names. Another clue: the first became champion in 1955.
7.What the term "Tempo" means in chess.
What I should say about this question; EASY;EASY...
4.I knew you would not find the solution of this mate problem. And I bet with everyone, that you do not resolve it, not even with QA hot-shots like Gambitshark. And don,t forget, engine-use is forbidden.
And I don,t give you the name of the author as well!
But I am not such a bad guy. Also this time I give you a bonus question.
Question Nr.11
Sino ang pinaka pupular na mang lalaro ng chiss, at anung sayaw ang pinak, kumpara ng mag lalaro ng chiss, at sangayon siya ay matanda na at trindi na naka tira sa lugar sa-an siya pinanganak?
Good luck

I think Ray will have the exclusive right to answer no. 11. No 7 is synonymous to "initiative". No. 4 I will hazard a guess, is it a team play of 2 players.

This was the Tagalog (Philippine) language that kloosterveen wrote. Let me translate it in English and answer his Tagalog question. This is the translation.
Who is the most popular chess player and what kind of dance he's comparing in playing chess and he admits he is old and not living in the country where he was born?
Answer: Ray Duque III
kloosterveen, hahahahehehe I like it. You are advertising my name in the forum. I hope you will continue to advertise my name and will also do it in other chess sites, non-chess sites and everywhere. But please, let me know where you advertise my name so I will know.
I hope you will post a video at youtube and post my name there. I just don't know how to post something at youtube, so I'm asking you a favor.
Thank you again. Please keep doing it for me anywhere.

(Twinigo had even the dates correct, but in 87 Karpov won by default) |
No, Karpov won none of the five matches. The 1984/5 match was abandoned without result while Karpov was leading +5-3=40. In 1985, Kasparov won +5-3=16; in 1986, he won +5-4=15. The 1987 match was tied with four wins each and sixteen draws and Kasparov, being undefeated, retained the title. Kasparov won the 1990 match +4-3=17.

4. Siamise chess is something known in Polish as "kloc", played by two teams of two, you can give captured pieces to your partner, well it's a bit more complicated and I don't like it personally.
7. Tempo is the right (and obligation) to move
6. As for the champions I'm sure only of Kasparov
