Top78 Saturday 6 - The task from the previous Top tournament. New position. Who will find our variant? - We can't believe it, but Armenak sent an authorial solution. A big round of applause! And $50, of course. Important.  See the Top78 game in Winners. The position after 20 moves. On the 22nd move black could have taken a rook or a bishop. After taking the bishop white would have been left without compensation for the lost figure. However, the computer, following mathematical logic (rook 5 points, bishop 3), took the rook. In his excuse we can say, that at this moment white's mate combination was not visible for him. --- White was obviously taking a risk, but in Top 77 you can see the same game won convincingly.

January 16
Top 61 Hiper - $250 prize. It was hot! Only the players from Armenia showed a high level. But, 6 solutions and none of them original. Armenak sent 3 solutions, Alex 2 in the allowed time. Alex's mate on move 28, a late move and sent after time, we will show in the winning version. Brilliant! In task 2 Alex knocked out CEEC, he gave a mate in 22, 4 moves faster!

January 9
Top 60 Hiper - $250 prize. Tournament postponed to next Saturday, 16 January. 

January 2nd
Top 59-Hiper-$200 prize. A brilliant mate with sacrifice and getting a queen. We also require the reverse variant, with sacrifice and capture. No one has sent 2 correct solutions, no one receives a prize.  See our solutions for $200.

====================================
Christmas Hiper Top tournament with $300 prize (for 3 correct solutions. For two solutions or one, a prize at Goldchess' discretion). We will award 3 players. If two players send the correct solutions, $175/$125. If three, $150/$100/$50.

================================

From position after 13 moves we played 14.Nf3 f6, 15.B:f5 ef and then 16.Rfe1 Bc5. It is last, today's position. Yesterday Cuban Grandmaster Vidal reached this position, but played the Grandmaster's move, simple and effective 17.Ng5, after which blacks have no chance to defend their position. From the point of view of practical, tournament chess, the 17.Ng5 movement is stronger than ours. But we were carried away by the Talovian fantasy to finish the game effectively and we played 17.Re5. Of course, if the blacks don't accept the rook's sacrifice, the game will take longer, but after consuming the rook, what the blacks do, the game is childishly easy to win. Check this out. The solution in -Winners-Top.

Win Faster 15 May 16 - And again a 2:2 draw... Tasks 1 - 4 were beyond the reach of the players. Pawel won the move earlier 2 games, 2 and 3. As there was no minimum of players, the prize is symbolic, $20. Pawel won the move earlier 2 games, 2 and 3. As there was no minimum of players, the prize is symbolic, $20. Congratulations

Win Faster 14 May 9 - We want to win! No. Today the draw 2:2. Games 1 and 3 nobody won faster. Armenak sent 2 faster solutions.  But, task 2 we do not recognize. He sent mate 36, and we shortened his solution by a move. However, it must be said that he found a beautiful move here Bg8. In task 3 he used a flawless technique and won the move faster. We show his solution and our variant. Prize, entry fee to Win Faster 15

Win Faster 13 May 2 - Last time our amateur lost 0:4. We make no secret that today we want the opposite result. But no. Armenak won by a move faster in tasks 3 and 4. A 2:2 draw. Big applause for the Armenian chess virtuoso. In Goldchess you just have to show that you can play chess. Great news. After tournament Armenak found the solution 1 move faster in 1st task! So a draw, but with Armenak as the winner

Win Faster 12 April 18 - 0:4. Total victory for the players. All 4 games were winnable faster! Yuri didn't play, probably had poor internet, which often happens in Cuba. However, Armenak -Armenia and Damian Poland, provided cosmic emotions today. Task 1: First Armenak, mate 25, already a move earlier. Second Damian, missed mate 23 by playing 20.Q:f6, instead of 20.Qg7. This was discovered by Armenak in the 4th solution and he is the winner here. Ufff, it started badly for Goldchess. Task 2: They both easily found a variant that was a move faster, but Armenak was first. Will Armenak win the main prize today?

Task 3 and 4 from one position will decide. Win and mate, 5 and 7 moves to do. This is handled beautifully by Damian, finding a brilliant move 40.Nd8 in the position. This is followed by a win on 43, a move faster and a mate on 44, 2 moves faster. The amateur is taken away for resuscitation, a heart attack. :)

Armenak did not discover these variants but also sent a good solution as fourth, mate 45, move faster. A great day for the players. Both $75. Congratulations! I called the hospital, the amateur is alive, so the next Win Faster tournament will take place.

Win Faster 11 April 11 - The top 2 Goldchess players failed to beat the amateur today and win the move earlier today. Also no one sent 4 solutions for which we have an extra prize. Task 1, Yuri sent the author's. Bravo! Task 2, Armenak v25, but without winning the queen. However, no one sent task 3, mate30 without getting a queen. However, it was easier to win this position with capturing the queen. With capture we have 2 solutions, Armenak and Yuri, and ours is another. And interestingly, after time Yuri sent mate in 29, with capturing queen, a move earlier. But the solution is highly controversial, because in the test the computer twice played us differently, preventing such a solution as Yuri sent.

Win Faster 10 April 4 - Today  3:1 in games. Armenak solved 4th task! He receive $30 prize. In task 2 Armenak and Damian did win a move faster, but without fulfilling the condition of capturing the queen. We distinguish Armenak's game in task 4, mate with queen sacrifice. He receive an entry fee to Win Faster 11. Thank you all for the playing.

Win Faster 9 March 21 - We are beginning to believe in our amateur. Only in the second task did he manage to beat him. This was done by Damian Sliwicki and he becomes the hero of today's tournament.

Task 1, nobody sent any solution. After 58 minutes Armenak sent a mate in 26, but without winning a queen. It turns out that this was a very difficult task for the players, although we think that only from level 3-4. In our match 1:0 for Goldchess.

Win Faster 8 March 14 - Our amateur said: in win Faster 8 nobody wins any game faster than me. The tournament is today, in an hour, we will see if it is a boast and the players will win 4 games faster like in WF7, or if it is true this time. At this point nobody knows. --------- Results - Powerful emotions.
After the tournament we can say that the truth is in the middle. In the first game of the solution move earlier sent Armenak and Damian, but without getting the queen, so no. The second game, Armenak, move earlier, bravo and $30. The third game no one sent, in the fourth game Damian sent the author, that is in the same number of moves. But, after the tournament Armenak proved that it was possible to win the move earlier fourth game! Big applause for the champion! In view of this, in match points we consider today's 8th edition a draw, 2:2.  

Win Faster 7 March 7. In this tournament the players won all the games faster. Great victory for the players from Armenia! Just a hair away from the top prize $1000. Armenak was first to win 3 games, $250 plus 15 rating points, Alex was first in one game, $30 plus 5 rating points. Big congratulations. 1:0 for players. What will happen in the next edition?

---

Win Faster 6 - February 21. $1000 prize pool. The great excitement of the 6th edition is behind us. Today the players have won. A big match point for players.
Only in the first game no one managed to win faster.  In game 2, first Armenak, won in 20, second Alex, he won faster, in 19 moves. That's pity, it is late.  In game 3 first Armenak, 4 moves faster than us, in game 4 first Alex. Armenak $73, Alex $30. Congratulations to the winners. 

Win Faster 5 - February 14. $1000 prize pool. Who will win? 5th edition of Win Faster is over. However, it is possible to win faster and Armenak showed that. Armenak won faster in 3 games. However, in the first incorrectly, we do not score, in the third correctly, a move earlier, in the fourth 2 moves earlier, but 5 minutes after the time. Hence the prize for only one correct solution. Only the second game could not have been won faster. After 43 minutes Armenak sent a mate in 32, the same number of moves as we did.

Win Faster 4 - January 17. $1000 prize pool. Goldchess victory. In the required time nobody sent the solutions of winning a move earlier. In task 1 and 3 Armenak won the move earlier. But, after the time (task 1 his time 11:43, it was 10 minutes, task 3, his time 18:56, it was 15 minutes.). However, we will award half of the prize, $30. If he had sent in the time allowed, he would have won $150 today. In task 2 CEEC did not let himself be defeated a move earlier.
2 days after the tournament Armenak found winning move faster in task 2, the tournament Win Faster 4. So it turns out that all tasks could be won move faster and win the top prize, $1000!  A big applause for our best player from Armenia.
Win Faster 3 - January 10 - Tournament postponed to next Sunday, January 17.
Win Faster 2 - January 1st - who will win? There were four moves in the last Daily task. Players won in two, 2 moves earlier. In Top, they also won 1 move earlier, and the mate - 2 moves earlier. We see the future of Win Faster game for Goldchess in black. We think we're gonna go bankrupt.  A New Year's tasks without conditions. Beat, kill, win as soon as possible.  Today positions from the previous Win Faster 1 game. No conditions, just win move faster. Who won faster?. Game 1, 2, 3. WOW! No one has solved any problem. 3:0 for Goldchess, and in big points after two editions, a draw. We are happy, but also sad.
===================================

Win Faster 1 - Christmas 2nd Day 2020 year

December 25, Friday - 1 Edition of Win Faster is behind us. Next in the New Year. We were not to open the game for less than 5 players. But for creative chess players from Armenia, the tournament was worthwhile. Game 1 - first and good solution, 3 moves faster, Arman Ghevondyan. Alex, the same solution, 3 seconds later!! Game 2, was later, because was the date fault. Winner - Alex Nurijanyan. A brilliant solution, m32 by Arman, but after time. We show it in Winners.Task 3 at the given time no one sent. After time, the first correct, v37 by Armenak, half the prize. All rest players sent mate. I would like to remind you that the content of task 3 was - winning in 43 with the queen's sacrifice, not mate. In this tournament, Goldchess versus chess players of the whole world, there is 2:1 for  players 

 

In game 2 only one solution, Damian's, a move later than us and after time. In task 3 Armenak shone. From position 25 we had a win in 29, only 4 moves. It turns out that also here it was possible to win faster. Armenak won in 27, making only 2 moves. In games 3,4 Damian sent both solutions exactly ours. Distinction. Overall in games draw 2:2. Winners Zawo (Жавохир) and Armenak, $25 each. Congratulations and thank you for beautiful solutions.
We invite you to Win Faster, July 4, entry fee $11, prize pool $1000.

Before the tournament
IN THIS EDITION NO ONE WILL WIN ANY GAME A MOVE EARLIER THAN ME<<< Sorry, this entry was made by our amateur as I stepped away from the computer to brew myself a coffee. But, if he wrote it, I am announcing an extra prize before the tournament. $50 for the player who solves all 4 problems in as many moves as we do, with no condition - move earlier. V level, but this is also fun, so I also increase the time to solve the tasks. 1 game - 15 minutes, 2 - 15, 3+4 - 25 minutes.
Good luck
After the tournament
Great FWF Hero is Damarka who solved correct 3rd problem. $25 and great congrat! There was also an additional $50 prize for sending in 4 of our solutions, but no one solved the 4 problems like we did. This prize goes to the next edition in April 25.

Game 1 - 1 solution by Damian, 2 moves later.
Game 2 - 4 solutions, all not correct. Arman and Yuri have sent m32, move faster, but without the queen's capture 
Game 3 - 4 solutions, only Damarka has sent correct, $25!
Game 4 - nobody has sent, nobody solved the 4th problem

In the games 3:1 for Goldchess. However, the Win Faster tournament, level IV, is easier. We will show our solutions, except 4th.
We invite all players on the last Sunday of next month.

A beautiful test of players' skills and possibilities of Goldchess.

Task 1.

Only 2 solutions. Arman was the first to send exactly our solution, a truly beautiful variant. The second, Armenak, his own, but without capturing the queen. Nobody sent a move earlier. In this game it was probably impossible to win the move earlier.
 

Task 2.

First Arman, a move... later. Second Damian, bravo Poland!Another mate, but also a move later, in 25th, so for the prize was 2 moves too many.

 

Task 3, mate 21.

First, Armenak, mate22, move too late. Second Arman, honorable mention - entry into Saturday's Top24, for a very nice solution, mate 21, in as many moves as we did. Ours is just as beautiful, we'll show.
 

Task 4 - a breakthrough here. This game was won a move earlier, It is won by Sargis who sent first, before Arman.  
 

In conclusion, the players have won a move earlier only one game. And only Armenia and Poland. The chess players from India did not breathe at all. All those who did not manage to win any task, we invite them to learn in our tournaments and Training Box.

Poland Challenge - free, April 25th, 16:00
Report

A strange thing happened in the Poland Challenge tournament. A lot of players were taking positions from the previous tournament by inattention. Arman, a talented player from Armenia, who sent the first 2 solutions in task 1.  The correct solution, winning in 20 moves, was not sent by anyone.

Task 1. First Arman Gevondyan, Armenia. All right, $50. Congratulations.

Task 2. Only 2 solutions, both by Arman. But 2 moves too late. There is no winner.

Task 3. One solution, but sent out after time. 10:29. Arman found the right way, the correct variant, but he didn't beat the computer in 63 moves. 

We show solutions in Winner-Tournaments

We invite you to the next tournament

Tasks from the Skawiński - Łukasz Luba game. Lukasz tried to use the Goldchess style, but he confused the order of moves and lost. Here we show the winning variants.  We play blacks.

Task 1 - win in 35, position after 30 moves. Only 6 moves to go. The exact author's solution was sent by Damian Śliwicki. Time 6 minutes. Congratulations.

Task 2, mate 39 from the same position.  

Task 3, win on  move 39.

Tasks 2 and 3, no one sent a solution.

No one could do it.

There were no minimum players, so symbolic rewards, a $ 100 prize pool, Armenak $ 60, and Alex $ 40.

In October a double prize worth of US$ 200 in the Genius Test game is awaiting a player who figures out what is the contents of the problem (in 26th move) and sends in a correct solution.

Nobody solved.
Goldchess solution

 

Genius Test, March 2-there are two winners, Sargis Manukyan and Hayk Yeritsyan, - distinction, see in -Winners

2 winners.

1. Sammed Shete, India, sent first, original - prize $ 30.

2. Manukyan, 3 solution. Author's solution, plus two prettiest - prize $ 70.

Genius Test February 2

Goldchess Author performed a checkmate with a dark-squared bishop. However, it came out that one may mate with the dark-squared bishop as well as with the light-squared one. Both solutions were sent in by Hayk Yeritsyan from Armenia and therefore he is the winner.

There is a problem which may even require an arbitration. A player has submitted a beautiful solution for the Genius Test. Yet, it is not a proper solution, as it is a checkmate and not a victory, and a wrong variant, although the conditions, which included first capturing and then sacrificing the queen, have been met. Furthermore, to put it mildly, CEEC's 27th move in our test is 27. ...Rxf6, and not 27. ...Kg7, as in the player's version. So, the solution cannot be acknowledged, but let's examine it closely.

Task for October is extremely tricky. I could not find the solution in 28 movements but only 29 movements. Yet I think my solution is nice and that is why I am sharing it with you by mail.

I spend quite a long time to come up with the solution... Thanks for the interesting game..

Genius Test October, we are fighting for US $ 300

Goldchess and Genius Test it is beauty, beauty and beauty.

This is what the winner of May version of Genius Test, Kristian Jacek, who is very talented chess player with an official ranking of 2165  (due to not playing too much), but in reality with a ranking 2400, had to say about us:

 

goldchess.com portal offers a variety of interesting chess games and problems. One of them is Genius Test, which is free with a large prize fund. The problem that was posted in May was nothing that I expected. Wb1 move was a beautiful move that used an overload motive, which shows the beautiful, deep nature of Chess. It is very nice to discover this nature. The best examples of this tactics are known people in chess community, such as Michaił Tal who gave up half of his figures just mate with the last ones! There is also Robert Fischer who is known as „Wonderful Child” because of his chess talent by which he outran his times.

I recommend for you to get to know those people and watch their best chess games, they are simply amazing. They will also bring your skills up, so it will be easier for you to solve chess problems in Genius test and Goldchess problems in general, as we admire beauty in chess.

In the end, I would like to thank goldchess.com portal that it arise for us - chess players, and for opportunity to solve such a beautiful chess problems.
