Please click temporary on the 'Cyberpress.sopron.hu' URL only
Important announcement for foreign chess friends!
Temporary break of our „Cyberchess" columnA few usefull information.
We acknowledge our readers and chess fans that until further notice the URL of „Http://Cyberchess. sopron.hu/"will not publish
new chess articles. Therefor we are asking you to be so kind of clicking on
the basic chess publication’s column of Http://Cyberpress.sopron.hu which is
under the Hungarian title of „Sakkvilág".However: the archive of earlier chess articles is identical in Cyberchess with Cyberpress until Nov 25 of 2000,
reflecting the last simultaneously published article about the „Mate in 2"
problem, composed by the Pope John Paul the II., while he studied on the
University of Krakow. (By a way: the solution of this splendid chess problem
is 1. Qa7!...)Even more important: the temporary not under development
held „Cyberchess" URL has three crucial links about the point of view of chess information, and that’s why I recommend to visit this site more frequently.
The first link leads directly to the most informative chess sources of the World, to the „The week in chess" web site, made in England, keeping the
news, new crop of games, curiosities, pictures, up to date, and giving so an abundant stock of knowledge for everyone. During the last few months I
downloaded about 40.000 (!!) brand new games in ZIP form, you can do it also,
the download of 1800-2000 games takes about 5 minutes!The second URL is the official WEB site of the Hungarian Chess Federation, it contains
also numberless „sublinks" to various Hungarian chess forums, clubs and
playing sites.The third link is „Mr. First Saturday"’-s / alias Laszlo Nagy/ prominent chess organizer’s WEB page, he became a world wide
well known, respected and frequented joker of the chess scene, with his
inexhaustible energy, ideas, making Budapest for a real rendezvous spot
for the Hungarian and International chess, by tournaments, starting
every month’s first Saturdays.You’ll gain strength, rating, practice,
if you had chance to participate on his monthly repeated tourneys at the
Hungarian Chess Federation’s clubhouse in the Falks Miksa u. Budapest.
So, through these valuable information you’ll be in the main stream of the Hungarian but also of the International chess.Here I must mention
again, that a new, super quality of book appeared for a ridiculously inexpensive
prize on the Hungarian chess book market, with the title: „HONFI NAGYMESTER"(nagymester= grandmaster in Hungarian). I’m very well familiar with the chess book market, world wide, and I must say, that such a useful,
professionally selected and prepared book is very rare on the shelves and if,
the prize is somewhere in the range of 20-25 Dollars. The Honfi book, - among
many other merits - is also an unsurpassable treasure of teaching material and
costs less than 7 Dollars, (1980 Frt), published as a very short first series.
Virtually for the late grandmaster friends, fans, and pupils and for some really eager chess buffs, who are craving for extravagant beauty and fight on the chess board, without compromise. If you’re quick, you might be able to order a copy of the book of the 250 pages, at the son of the late GM.
