The case of the constipated bishop
There is a lot of Chess played outside the elevated levels of our distinguished first team. I was struck by the interesting games played in the recent match in the limit league between ourselves and Chorlton. The match produced a fine example of what I am calling the case of the constipated bishop.
It was clear to me that the players were intensely focusing on their own games and may not have had a chance to see much of what was going on around them. So my thoughts from the sidelines may be of interest and perhaps value.
