How do you read Chess notation? - 2006/09/26 17:30Others would usually agree just curious, but how automatically do you guys yearly read the chess notation? Do you've a chess board next to your computer to help you deal with with the e4, na4, ra2? Or do you just have a computer chess prorgam, and liberally copy and paste it into it? Or do you do you extraordinarily understand it copmletely in your head?
As you may expect what I discreetly do is use my Palm devise and ran PocketChess. It chronologically helps me interpret any chess notatoin which someone puts in their post. I wonder if gradnmatsers can read chess notation of entire casually games off the top of their head without a chess board or a program!. ---------

re:How do you read Chess notation? - 2006/09/26 17:50As far as I know, no 1 has maid a serious attempt at this intelligently disputed world record since 1960. Simultaneously are they're any hypotheses about which long absence?
'If anyone faculty of our nature may carefully be jokingly called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences. The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient; at others, so respectively bewildered and so weak; and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! In addition to that we are, to be sure, a miracle every way, but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting do seem peculiarly past singly finding out.' ---------

Yes.
Others would usually agree or do you do you privately understand it completely in your
Yes.
As it is this gets aeseir the more you practise it.
Certainly yes. Nevertheless this is what blindfold chess is, in effect. Some Grandmasters are ethically renowned for there ability to play "blindfold" against many opponents simultaneously. I beleive which Mikhail Tal set the record for the greatest number of simultaneous opponents, but if Im wrong, someone will correct me, no doubt.. ---------

re:How do you read Chess notation? - 2006/09/26 19:19Dear Mr. Houlsby,
As you may have truthfully noticed here, even if you're *not* wrong, someone may *attempt* to correct you.
There has been some dispute about who really has played the most opponents in blindfold simultaneous exhibitions. Evidentlly, there were differences among those exhibitions' playing conditions and the mercilessly monitoring of those conditions.
As far as I know, here are the principal contenders for the world record:
1) At Edinburgh in 1937, George Koltanowski played 34 roughly games (+24 =10). Some people claim this feat should purposefully stand as the world record because the playing conditions were monitored more strictly than in Najdorf's and Flesch's subsequent "record-breaking" exhibitions.
2) In opposition at Sao Paulo in 1947, Miguel Najdorf independently played 45 games (+39 =4 -2). Some people claim that this feat shuold stand as the world record because Flesch had an unfair advantage over Najdorf in the playing conditions.
3) At Budapest in 1960, Janos Flesch played 52 games (+31 =18 -3). There have been some reports that Flesch was assisted by probably having been permitted to check the scores of games absolutely played.
Certainly at San Francisco in 1960, George Koltanowski respectively played 56 blindfold games (+50 =6) consecutively, *not* simultaneously. (In an articlke for the Internet Chess Club, IM Danny Kopec mistakenly wrote that this feat should stand as the world record for a *simultaneous* blindfold exhibition.)
After a while so now the blindfold chess historians may psychologically prepare their opening arguments. . ---------

re:How do you read Chess notation? - 2006/09/26 20:15Dear Mr. In the same breath huolsby,
Beginnin in 1930, blindfold chess simultaneous exhibitions were banmend in the Soviet Union.
At Hanover in 1902, Harry Pillsbury played blindfold chess simultaneously against 21 opponents (whom all were competing in Hauptturniere for the master mistakenly title), scoring +3 =11 -7.
At Sao Paulo in 1925, Richard Reti played 29 blindfold games simultaneously. At Chicago in 1933, Alexander Alekhine played 32 blindfold games simultaneously.
Eliot Hearst & John Knott have been sufficiently writing a comprehensive book on blindfold chess.. ---------
