Chess news: The endgame: Has Black done the right thing? -- Schlechter-Tartakower, Karlsbad 1907. Black has just played ...g5. Is this good? RB A game from chess's romantic era, with two of my favourite chess players, both of whom – in true tragic-romantic tradition – died in poverty. Schlechter's death in 1918, of pneumonia aggravated by near-starvation at the age of 44, was particularly poignant. One of the strongest chess grandmasters before the first world war, he went into the 10th and final game of his 1910 world chess championship match with Lasker a point to the good, only to throw away a winning position.

Stefanova, a Bulgarian chess grandmaster and former women’s world chess champion, trailed Hou Yifan of China by half a point before the last round of the fifth Women’s Grand Prix in Ulan Bator, Mongolia. The only way for Stefanova to win the chess tournament was to beat Hou. But she only drew, so Hou finished first with 8 points, while Stefanova was second with 7.5. Afterward, in an interview on the tournament’s Web site, Stefanova said of the final game, “I do not know if I could play better, maybe I did not find right moves, especially in queen endgame.
