Exposing the king:

 

How does White end the game? It looks like he is going to get checkmated.  I don't know the exact definition of scoring a marginal win by exposing the king, but I believe that White must find a way to end the game without getting mated, or stalemated.  He has to either force a 3 fold repetition, perpetual check, or 50 moves without the capture of a piece or movement of a pawn.  Your solution is incomplete until you show how White will accomplish that.

Well done Anthony!!

i needed to see where these dudes were coming from.

Blake, did you get into this century in a time machine ?

I thought this thread would be about something else.

Yeah, me too.

It looks to that AnthonyCG showing how to get .6 pts and still lose.

I got also blocked tonight and it hurts. The monster in the stalemate discussion did not even care to answer my question. He just blocked me. And only because I asked him why the wages in Hungary are only one third of the equivalent wages over here. Seems a reasonable question to me?

You may not let it hurt you Bron. It's part of the game some people play here. I never blocked anyone and I have never been blocked before, but... It happens. Les mots sont source de malentendus, like Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said...

I try to get over it. And i had such nice input prepared for their interesting discussion :-)

you have to make an on-topic quote so that monster_with_no_knickers can answer you with "you're an idiot".

if you go off topic, he assumes you're not taking his crack topic seriously and kicks you into touch.

i needed off that thread because it has no end date.

I thought he just wanted his money's worth for use of the forum. But he's not even a paying member, so there must be some other reason.

By what logic would White score .6 pts in Anthoney CG example?

bronsteinitz

None because you can only get 1 point for a win and 1/2 point for a draw and that should not change :-)

He exposed the opponent's king.
