CHESS CLOCKS
15
Analogue Chess Clocks are the traditional method used to time chess games and have remained more or less unchanged since their
introduction over 120 years ago. Batteries are not needed as analogue timers are powered by a wind-up mechanism! Pressing the button down
on your side stops your clock and starts that of your opponent. A flag will fall at the exact moment a players time has expired. However, they are
less accurate than digital timers and are unable to implement advanced time controls such as increment and time delay.
Digital Chess Clocks have the advantage over the traditional analogue clock as they are able to handle a wider range of time controls such
as time delay, bonus and multi-session settings. Digital clocks show their worth in blitz games and time-scrambles, where knowing exactly how
much time you have remaining makes all the difference! Unlike analogue clocks the digital variety require batteries, although a set of batteries
can last an incredible eight years (based on a usage of 4 hours per week).

opening until late in the endgame. This DVD provides a vital insight into
how a grandmaster thinks and the reasoning behind his choice of moves.
The Master Game broke new ground in the 1970s and 1980s when it established itself as the only international chess
tournament made for television. Following its launch by the BBC in 1975, it became a firm favourite with both chess fans
and the general public. The list of featured competitors is a whos who of famous Grandmasters from the 1970s including
Karpov, Korchnoi, Miles, Larsen, Short, Nunn, Browne and many more. While computers have taken over the analysis
of games in the modern age, the aspect of The Master Game which continues to make it so popular was the players
voicing their inner thoughts and letting viewers understand their thinking during the game. Each series features all 13
original episodes presented by Jeremy James & William Hartston in a 2-DVD set.
Series 6 (filmed / broadcast in 1980-1). Contestants included: Larsen, Short, Gligoric, Hort, Byrne, Miles, Schmid and
Donner. Running Time: 6 hours 30 mins.
Series 7 (filmed / broadcast in 1981-2). Contestants included: Adorjan, Short, Browne, Lobron, Keene, Christiansen,
Quinteros and Hecht. Also included on this DVD is a bonus BBC documentary, The Lowdown: The Master of the Game
- which follows the rise to international success of a young Matthew Sadler. Running Time: 7 hours.

CHESS SOFTWARE
Lets Check was the revolutionary feature introduced in Fritz 13. Whenever you analyse a position to any meaningful depth Fritz will, if you allow it,
send the main line and evaluation to a central server, to be shared with all participating users. You will be able to find deep analysis to almost every
position you look at instantly. Lets Check keeps updating the evaluations with newer, deeper analysis as it becomes available. The entire body of
modern opening theory - well over 200 million different chess positions - are built into the system, and Lets Check instantly provides you with the
latest statistics of any position in the opening: how often it occurs, which moves were played and with what success. The openings book (LiveBook) is
updated on a weekly basis and will show you which variations are topical and how successful they are. If you want to know about a particular opening
position using Let's Check will help you find out in seconds what would otherwise take days with an engine to uncover.
- Optimised for Windows 8 and Windows 10: Fritz runs faster and smoother than ever before - supporting up to 4 cores &
16 GB of Hash Memory - so Fritz can take advantage of developments in PC hardware.
- Improved Fritz playing/analysis engine. Approximately 100 Elo points stronger than previous versions. Think Magnus
Carlsen's peak Elo rating of 2889 is impressive? Fritz 15's rating is an astonishing 3200 Elo.
- New FritzBook by Alex Kure - Fritz knows the latest opening theory, allowing you to hone your opening repertoire.
- New training and sparring features, including new openings and tactics trainers.
System Requirements: Pentium III 1 GHz, 512 MB RAM, Windows 10/8/7/Vista or XP (with Service Pack 3 installed),
DVD drive. Please note an internet connection is required to complete the installation of this product.
Give in to the magic of this program! Komodo Chess 9 sits atop the computer ranking lists (3352 Elo as of August 2015)
with daylight between Komodos nearest rivals. The secret to its success? Komodos ability to utilise the best of the
hardware it is running on to make its analysis deeper than all comparable engines. The Komodo 9 (64-bit) engine can
support up to 64 processor cores and 16 GB of hash memory.
Komodo 9 from ChessBase is supplied with the latest Deep Fritz 14 chess interface and thus puts at your disposal all

chapters that can be read in 10-15 minutes each, each with a try-ityourself section at the end. Suitable for kids, demystifies the learning
process for adults.
