My favourite Endspiel in Chinese Chess is white King+pawn vs your alone black king. You may move in your castle many times, but it's useless. You just waiting, when your Death will come...Slow chinese torture))) At least, you get "flying
cane in the bridge of your nose" , as said great poet in 1925, not old chinese. Russian one!)

rod03801: Please, dont banned this guy. I know he can talk correctly, just he is very ardent )))

Lol ...It's very strange , Nobody , that great sensei does not play Go))) It seems like drenched chinese butterfly or i don't know like what)))
I may get you few lessons after 6 month )) at the board 19x19)))))) stay here :)

Many of the stratagems and tactics really are the same in XQ and traditional chess: fork, discovered check, closed mate(or half-closed in XQ) ,sacrifice, zugzwang (very rare in XQ) etc
Difference : Opposition 2 kings (impossible in XQ), pat = mat, perpetual check is not a draw in XQ , it's lost...

When you win in March, I thought that I will not survive. I cried and I have not eaten for six days. Headache tortured by me and my heart beat irregularly. I cursed the day when you came here, Mister. Since
then I played a lot with strong opponents, with weak opponents too.
I sometimes play, even I cann't learn anything. because i think we should give a chance for the weak players, even we don't talk to
them. And now i believe in myself like never before.
Please don't go from this site. Wait, when the number of my games will be 15 - 18 (now i am little brain pawn) . And i will challenge
you to a Great Fight. And if this fight will be fair - you will be beaten and destroyed... You should'nt be so arrogant, Nobody...
Remember : "One person with a belief is equal to the force of 100 000 who have only interests."

I know, you are not very bad in TAKTIK, but real CHAMPION is the player, who have a best STRATEGY.
Strategic thinking can'nt be develope in blitz...
Have you a strategy in your games, my dear? Have you a strategy in your life?
My answer is NO,
I think You don't know what should you do: to play with me or another player in chinese chess or to talk abt your "losing interests", to be or not to be, to marriage or to die etc.
I thought you are great and terrible chinese grandmaster 111-years old, but you are real weak

it's true pedestrian))) my father was a master by correspondance. if he lived 2003 , and wold play here, his bkr would be 2500...

there is an excellent resource XQ clubxiangqi.com - it's one of my favorite sites. If you were Chinese or Vietnamese, you would definitely know about this site. There, you're always online, no logins or logouts. What do you want from this site? Brainking is great because here there are many games that you are not found anywhere else on the Internet. Just play and have fun mr Nobody)))
