15/09/2023 – Nos contaba Felipe Martín en su blog "MetaJaque" que en 'Birth of the Chess Queen' (Harper, 2004), la escritora norteamericana Marilyn Yalom "recorrió país a país, siglo a siglo, las huellas de la Dama, una pieza que fue imponiéndose en los tableros de ajedrez de Europa a partir del siglo XVI. Yalom encuentra un correlato con episodios concretos de protagonismo político femenino, ya fueran reinas consortes, reinas viudas, reinas regentes o reinas titulares, entendiendo Reina en el sentido más amplio de Señora, Dómina, Dama…" ¿Podría ser el origen de esta pieza una reina de la Corona de Aragón? +++ La publicación de la noticia ha causado polémica y reacciones de otras fuentes. Hemos agregado los comentarios a continuación de la noticia original. +++ | Imagen: portada del libro 'La Variante Valenciana de la Defensa Escandinavia'
26/01/2023 – Desde comienzos del siglo XXI, el consenso actual de la historiografía especializada en el ajedrez sitúa el nacimiento del moderno (u occidental) en el antiguo Reino de Valencia, en pleno Siglo de Oro Valenciano. El escritor y ajedrecista segorbino Francesc Vicent fue el autor del primer tratado conocido sobre el ajedrez moderno, el Llibre dels jochs partits dels scachs en nombre de 100, impreso en Valencia el 15 de mayo de 1495 en la imprenta de Lope de Roca Alemany y Pere Trincher. Es por ello por lo que, según el consenso mayoritario, está considerado el fundador del ajedrez moderno. Reproducción del artículo por Sergi N. De Arenas y MF Francisco Rubio, publicado en la revista de ajedrez "Peón de Rey" no. 162 (enero/febrero 2023). | Imagen: Revista "Peón de Rey" no. 162 (enero/febrero de 2023)

Videos: Felix Blohberger presents the surprise weapon 4…a6 in the Four Knights Game. Mihail Marin analyses the English Opening with 1.c4 e5 2.g3 g6 3.d4 exd4 4.Qxd4 Nf6 5.Bg2 Nc6. Plus the ‘Lucky bag’ featuring 37 analyses by Berg, Radjabov and others.
Renowned for its solidity and strategic soundness, it has been a cornerstone of the repertoires of elite grandmasters including Fabiano Caruana and Ian Nepomniachtchi, who relied on it successfully in the Candidates Tournament.
The Benko Gambit is back at the very highest level - and it's easy to see why. Black sacrifices a pawn to seize the initiative on the queenside, obtaining long-lasting pressure, active pieces and open files that make life difficult for White.
The Hyper-Accelerated dragon is fast, from the very first moves, your bishop heads to g7, seizes the long diagonal, and turns into the most feared piece on the board.
It rewards players who love initiative and clear attacking plans.
