Play online chess |  Subject: pgn converter
Message:
I have a question about pgn format. I have downloaded a number of games from an online chess database (chesslab.com) into a textpad. How do I convert this to a pgn file so I can open it with fritz8 to analyze the games?

Change the suffix in your Windows Explorer (if you are a Windows user) from *.txt to *.pgn and then open it with a pgn viewer.
This goes both ways (if you want to open the *.pgn file in Word or Notepad just rename it to *txt). So tackles Kamsky after booting out Ivanchuk — Filipino chess Grandmaster Wesley So claimed the biggest scalp of his young chess career Wednesday night, sealing a 1.5-.5 victory over super GM Vassily Ivanchuk of Ukraine to barge into the third round of the 2009 World Chess Cup at the Khanty-Mansiysk Center of Arts. Continuing his strong showing against higher-rated chess players, the 16-year-old So held Ivanchuk to a fighting draw in the second game of their second round encounter to forge a showdown with defending chess champion GM Gata Kamsky of the United States.

I didn't know it was that easy :)) Defence, part 2: how does White save himself? — When defending, capturing can take the sting out of an attack. Is that the case here? Fedorov-Maletin, St Petersburg 2009. Continuing our theme of defence, how can White, to play, save himself? RB What's the threat here? 1... Nxg1 2 Qxg1 gives Black nothing, except a pawn down in a queen and rook endgame. Nothing there. What else? Oh,yes. 1... Qg3. This is very bad. The only thing White could do then is 2 Qxf3, but 2...Rxf3 3 gxf3?? Qxh3 is mate. OK, we need to stop the black queen getting to g3. Is it bonkers to take with the queen? 1 Qxf3 Rxf3 2 gxf3 and White has two rooks for the queen, which is not terrible. Let's try consider ... Posted by ccmcacollister

Excellent and useful bit of information to hear about~! Kramnik's best game — For the last several years, Vladimir Kramnik tried to make sure he did not lose games. It was a perfect style for the world chess championship matches and for his duels against chess computers, but it was not good enough to win major tournaments. After playing listlessly and losing the match for the world title to Anand last year, Kramnik decided to play more sharply. It paid big dividends. In July, Kramnik won in Dortmund, Germany, and this month, he was victorious at the Tal Memorial in Moscow. He finished ahead of Carlsen in both chess events. Their rivalry will continue next month in London. Kramnik considered the Grunfeld Indian duel against his countryman Peter Svidler ...
