[D]8/1p3p1p/p4P1k/P4P1p/6pP/6Pq/5P2/5K2 w - - 0 1 True story this time. The above position happened in a free game between Dr J. Perlis and N.N., many years ago, in Germany I think. The good doctor was a generous man and played without a queen from the start. So it's not strange that he is missing one in the above position. And since we are careful, scientific people we shall have a closer look at it with Fritz. Okey, white is a queen down, is standing in check right now, Fritz gives 3 ways to go: 1.Ke2 -19.44 1.Ke1 -19.75 1.Kg1 -19.12 Guess it's time for a new game... In fact it is - because after 1.Kg1! *black* is mated in 6 moves. Sune
