A cartoon (all my own work) and a new picture of me for your collection.
This time I’m lounging on the beach reading the latest CHESS magazine.

Within the magazine I spotted this. Le Tuan Minh - D. Paravyan, Internet Blitz 2023

(White to play)

White did not played Bf1 so what happened next?

This set a up mini theme and I give of couple RHP Stalemates from this year.
One of them came from a very interesting position and I had to bring in
Endgame Ernie to dig out the win because at first sight it seems there is not one.

Then a ‘you will never guess’ question. How many games played, so far
in 2023 do you think ended with a Knight checkmate? Have a guess?
There then follows A few RHP examples of Knights Mates from 2023.

OH No, not two of them. I'd only start arguing with the other one and anyway I already
have a few alter ego's on the blog. The Duck, Bart, Ernie, the Knight and Rook jokes..
