Front Page World UK UK Politics ... Help Tuesday, October 19, 1999 Published at 15:59 GMT 16:59 UK Sci/Tech Microsoft challenged over Net chess Kasparov makes a move every other day Chess players around the globe have accused Microsoft of ruining an internet game between Russian grandmaster Garry Kasparov and the rest of the world. They say the company messed up a move they posted on a special website where the world champion was taking on all comers. The participants say the mistake cost them at least a highly-respectable draw and may even have denied them victory. But Microsoft rejects criticism of the way it has managed the four-month-long Kasparov vs the World game, saying the cyberclash has been conducted within the rules. In the game, which started on 21 June, Kasparov holds the white pieces and makes a move every other day. The World plays with black and its pieces are moved on the basis of a vote by internet users. They are offered a range of options posted on the Microsoft site by several young chess experts, who also receive suggestions from net surfers. The row centres on move 58. One of the options, proposed by 15-year-old US women's chess champion Irina Krush, did not appear, because she had server problems when posting the move by e-mail. Consequently, internet users could not vote for her suggestion and chose what turned out to be an inferior option.

Unsubscribe Microsoft chess: Call it a draw? The virtual match "Kasparov vs. the World" ends in chess suicide, offering a glimpse into the nature of online community. By Mark Gimein Oct. 20, 1999 S abotage. Ballot stuffing. Mass suicide. Protest Web sites. Welcome to the world of online chess. For the last four months, chess addicts and duffers worldwide have engaged in a struggle to beat the world's top chess player, Garry Kasparov, in the ongoing chess game Kasparov vs. the World, presented by Microsoft's Gaming Zone. Every two days, Kasparov, playing White, makes a move. Then, chess players who have signed up with MSN get to vote on an answering move. On each turn, "the World" makes the move that gets the most votes from the chess players who've signed up with MSN. (According to Microsoft, 6,000 to 10,000 players vote on a typical turn.) Think of it as a contest pitting the democratic process against one brilliant chess player. Well, that was how it was

Game History Play Kasparov Complete history of the Analysts Moves and Commentary! Notation Explanation ... Irina Krush The analysts for the World Team in the Kasparov vs. The World are all rising young chess superstars. These are the next generation of names that will rise to the top of the chess-playing world. If you're unsure what move to play against World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov, our analysts can point you in the right direction with their thoughtful responses. Danny King's Commentary The pawn advances to the 7th rank, just one square away from becoming a new queen. The World can stave off its promotion for a few moves, but that is all. Defeat is inevitable. Once a new queen arrives, White will have an overwhelming superiority in forces. Garry Kasparov happens to be here in London at the moment and, as the event is drawing to a close, he was happy to discuss the game in detail. He is obviously very proud of his achievement over the past few months and is quite willing to participate in a post-game discussion when the event is over. He showed me just a few of the critical variations he and his team had worked on. They were mind-blowing; sometimes they looked just like an endgame study. He said he had never before analysed with such intensity over such a long period of time, and that includes preparation for his World Championship matches.

CHESS GODDESSES A well-played chess game, like a beautiful woman, is music to the soul. U.S. Championships 2003 January 9 - 29, 2003 Exclusive! Correspondent Jim Perry's interview with Irina Krush, from the 2003 U.S. Chess Championships. IRINA KRUSH [Editor's note: this interview was recorded following the completion of the final round of the tournament, but prior to the 3-way playoff involving Anna Hahn, Jennifer Shahade, and Irina Krush.] JFP: You became very strong at chess very early in life. When you were 14 years old, you were rated about 2400 . . . Irina Krush: Yes, right, in fact I was even over 2400. JFP: How did you manage to combine an active chess life with your schooling? JFP: And now? Irina Krush: Now, I go to New York University. I just started my first semester and I don't know yet what I'm going to major in. I'm just taking some required classes, some electives. JFP: In the background information which the Foundation [America's Foundation for Chess] supplied those of us in the press, it says (in reference to yourself) "she is confident that her best achievements in chess are yet to come". But about 4 years ago you were rated 2400 and your current rating is about the same. Have you hit a flat spot in your development as a chessplayer? Irina Krush: Well, the thing is about my FIDE rating, at 15 my highest rating was 2432 and right now it's 2433. It has been much less than that. I've had some bad times. At one point, I went from 2432 to 2354. Then, it gradually rose up again. But the first thing I want to say is that when I first hit the rating 2432, I was actually a bit overrated. I don't think I was quite that strong at that time. My rating right now is very solid. Whatever it is, I'm definitely not overrated. I was definitely weaker back then than I am now. I had just a lot less knowledge about chess. I'm not oblivious to the fact that my rating is essentially the same now as it was 4 years ago. It's not because I haven't improved in the chess sense. I have other things going on, but actually I feel like right now is the time when I can improve a lot and my rating can go up. The past is just the past - you get experience, you grow as a person and then your rating gets higher.

PAKISTAN CHESS PLAYER US-China Chess Summit Match 2001 Round 2: USA 5 China 5 The American team captain Nick de Firmian decided to use his three reserve players in the second duel. Joel Benjamin replaced a rather tired Alexander Ivanov, US Women's co champion Elina Groberman took the spot of Camilla Baginskaite and the youngest player of this event, 13 year old Hikaru Nakamura got the opportunity to play Chinese junior Ni Hua. A few hours into the match all looked rosy for the American team and another victory seemed in the air. The Chinese players defended well and after nearly six hours of fighting a 5-5 result was penciled in on the score board. Half way this competition the US team is leading by the smallest margin possible, a half point. The round started earlier than the previous one as the players and officials were invited for a dinner hosted by Washington State Governor Gary Locke and his wife Mona. Boris Gulko made sure he would be there in time by having a swift draw with China's strongest player Ye Jiangchuan. Irina Krush followed this example and scored her second half point for team USA. A nice achievement considering that Irina's opponent has 120 rating points more.
