The Sam Sloan TV Show
Chess Lesson Three of the Sam Sloan TV Show will be broadcast
Tomorrow, Monday, June 13, 2005 at 10:00 AM EDT on Time Warner Channel
34 and Cablevision Channel 67 in Brooklyn.
Internet Viewers can see this show by going to http://www.bcat.tv/bcat
and clicking on Channel 1.
This lesson is in streaming video so you must be online at this time
to see it.
Chess Lesson Three deals with some basic openings such as the Dragon
Variation of the Sicilian Defense and some basic endgames. I
demonstrate the endgame Carl Wagner vs. Sam Sloan that I was able to
force a draw in a king and pawn endgame spite of being a pawn down.
This draw was important because it enabled my team from the University
of California at Berkeley to tie for first place in the 1966 US
Intercollegiate Championship in State College, Pennsylvania. It was a
good result for me too because Carl Wagner was rated 200 points higher
than me and I appeared to be losing.
I am showing this particular endgame to demonstrate how a knowledge of
basic simple endgames can enable the player to figure out the correct
plan in more complex endgames with more pieces and pawns on the board.
Starting in two weeks I expect to have a regularly scheduled weekly
Sam Sloan TV Show. Each show will be 28 ? minutes. I plan to do one
show about Shogi (Japanese Chess), one show about Chinese Chess and
one show about Go. I will tape them all in one setting. Probably I
need to get a cute Chinese girl to be on the show with me to give my
viewers something to look at besides me. Need also to obtain a
demonstration board for Shogi, Chinese Chess and Go to make these
shows. Does anybody know where I can get one?
Thus far I have made seven shows, two about the Crisis in Afganistan,
two about io in Japan and three about chess.
The chess shows have been outrageously popular. Lesson Number two is
online at http://www.ishipress.com/samchess2.asf . That show has been
downloaded more than 800 times since it was posted last week.
The title of this episode is "Chess: Basic Openings and Basic
Endgames"
Suggestions for future shows are welcome.
I need to thank Gary Popkin for providing both the inspiration and the
technical expertise and the direction for this show.
Gary is the Executive Producer of http://www.geocities.com/HardfireTV/
"Hardfire", the Libertarian Alternative TV Show which can be seen at
http://www.bcat.tv/bcat Channel 2 on Mondays at 10:30 PM EST.
