Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2012
Hi everyone,
Here is a weekend chess quiz with a prize. Have a great weekend coming up tomorrow all filled with chess and more chess. (What else is there in the world apart from chess any way! - Ah, well just kidding, or are we?)
The first five all-correct entries win a free copy of chess magazine Black & White with a complete tutorial on Chess King. Post your answers here or just email them to editor@blackandwhiteindia.com. Last Date: April 8, 2012.
Sorry folks, Mr Google won't be able to help you much tonight.
Question 1
Which is the Queen of Chess Openings?
Question 2
If the legendary chess champion Gary Kasparov was not called Gary Kasparov, what would he be called?
Question 3
Can you name the Black African person who took up chess to make himself ineligible for an appointment as a judge? He later went on to become a super blindfold chess player!
Question 4
Alekhine remarked about this person that he would become a future world chess champion, but he quit chess as it was unprofitable and became an insurance salesman. Who was this person?
Question 5
What does Chess King have that no other professional chess learning software on the planet have?
Question 6
White to play and checkmate in two
