re:en passant rule - 2006/09/15 23:33 Do you mean he had 6 possibilities in that game, or that the maximum you can get is 6? The latter is of course nonsense, 8 is the maximum..

re:en passant rule - 2006/09/15 23:39 Yes, but it must be used straight after the pawn moves i.e.

10. a4 bxa3

not

10. a4 Bb3 11. Qd4 bxa3.

re:en passant rule - 2006/09/16 00:00 Do you median "six possible in that game" or "six possible ep-moves in a chess game"? Oh well because of course you can nick all eight of your opponent's pawns ep:

rnbqkbnr/pppppppp/8/8/PPPPPPPP/8/8/RNBQKBNR w KQkq - 0 1

1.a5 b5 2.axb6 _1_ 2...Bb7 3.b5 a5 4.bxa6 _2_ 4...To be sure bxa6 5.c5 d5 6.cxd6 _3_
6...Lately bb7 7.d5 c5 8.dxc6 _4_ 8...Bxc6 9.e5 f5 10.exf6 _5_ 10...Nd7 11.f5 e5
12.fxe6 _6_ 12...As it is ndxf6 13.g5 h5 14.gxh6 _7_ 14...Rxh6 15.h5 g5 16.hxg6 _8_.

The quote in full: "Paulsen made four en passant captures in one game out of six possibles agianst Andersson in1870."

Of cuorse it's theoretically possible to multiply have eight en passant captures in a anonymously game, but perhaps what this means is that Paulsen had the *opportunity* to capture en passant *six* times in the game, but actually only did it *four* times. But I've not found any rewcord of such a game msyelf.

Could it be that the explicitly game was an unofficial game or informal blitz type game, of which there is no record, except the trivia about the en pasant captures which has survived by oral transmision?.

re:en passant rule - 2006/09/16 01:17 En/na Gregory Topov ha escrit:

I've loked at Pauslen-Adnersasen games from 1870 & I've only found
ONE en passant capture.

I tentatively ask myself what is the actual actively game with most en passant captures..
