Can the chances be combined? What are the exact odds?Here is a simple guide to solving the problems that arise in assessing the odds in play at bridge. Keeping theory to a minimum, the authors show by means of many practical examples how to calculate the odds and how to come up with the right answer at the bridge table.

The Greatest Attacker in Chess - Lakdawala Cyrus
Rashid Nezhmetdinov (1912-1974) played fearless attacking chess. With his dazzling style, the Soviet master already was a legend during his lifetime, but international fame largely eluded him. Only once did he get permission to show his exceptional talent in a tournament abroad. Five times Nezhmetdinov was chess champion of the Russian Federation. In the 1961 Soviet Championship, he won the Best Game prize for a spectacular win against Mikhail Tal who praised his opponent for his ''amazing creativity''. Other stars that ''Nezh'' defeated in grand style included Spassky, Polugaevsky, Bronstein, and Geller. His games, full of tactical pyrotechnics, are his legacy and have reached an ever-growing audience. Nezhmetdinov''s shocking strategic queen sacrifice, in 1962 against Chernikov, as shown on Agadmator''s YouTube channel, has become the best-watched chess video of all time with millions of views. In this book, Cyrus Lakdawala pays tribute to the genius of the enigmatic Nezhmetdinov, a Tatar who grew up as an orphan in the part of the Soviet Union that is now Kazakhstan. In more than one hundred impressive and instructive games and positions, Lakdawala shows how Nezhmetdinov fought for the initiative, how he bluffed and sacrificed, and how he kept his cool to out-calculate ...

Sunday Times ''Delicious and intelligent, full of shining detail and mysteries respected.'' Daily Telegraph''Oh, the careful detail of this marvellous book! . . . A model of scholarly biography''.

Improve Your Chess x 3 - Chris Ward, Glenn Flear, Andrew Kinsman
Improve Your Opening Play by Chris Ward; Improve Your Middlegame Play by Andrew Kinsman; Improve Your Endgame Play by Glenn Flear. These three titles, brought together for the first time in one volume, explain the important ideas behind every major opening, provide an understanding of the middlegame to the aspiring player and tips to all players wishing to improve their endgame play. Chris Ward unravels the secrets of the Sicilian, the mysteries of the Modern and the fundamentals of the French. He emphasises the need to understand the key elements of each opening rather than simply memorise a series of complicated variations which leave you stranded if the opponent varies from the expected route. Andrew Kinsman uses examples from practical play to develop tactical and positional skills and awareness to enable you to make the most of your opportunities in the middlegame. Glenn Flear explains the fundamental principles which must be mastered in the endgame. Taking examples from his own games and those of other players, he shows how drawn positions can be converted into victories and lost positions saved at the last moment.

Ačkoli se cesty dvou jazzových ikon několikrát protnuly, do roku 1961 se nikdy nesešli ve studiu. Až v dubnu 1961 je dal dohromady producent Bob Thiele. Armstrong a Ellington strávili ve studiu na Manhattanu dva dny ve společnosti dalších muzikantů (klarinetista Barney Bigard, trombonista Trummy Young, basista Mort Herbert a bubeník Danny Barcelona). Natočili sedmnáct Ellingtonových kompozic, které rozdělili na dvě desky. První část nahrávek vyšla v roce 1961 pod názvem Together For The First Time, druhá pak jako The Great Reunion navázala v roce 1963. Obě desky jsou nyní k dispozici v reedici na LP.
