Dirty Harry strikes again
In the sixth round of our online town championship I won my first – and a thrilling – game with the black pieces. Again I played on a DGT board connected to the server with DGT Live Chess on my Apple M1.
In the opening I chose the Dirty Harry Sicilian, a nice surprise weapon not only in blitz or rapid games. Perhaps it’s also playable in «over the board» tournament games at our level. I won’t tell you too much about the lines here. The repertoire was developed by «ChessExplained» Christof Sielecki. The theory and the interesting story behind its birth is available at chessable.com.

Bad luck and good luck
My fourth game in the online town championship was a roller coaster: A typical Leningrad Dutch opening, quite interesting maneuvers and a finish, where we both missed a win.
Tools for PGN files
Two Three tools for extracting information and/or manipulating large pgn files. Especially pgn-extract did impress me. From lichess I downloaded a file (213 GB!) for later training a NN. It took close to 12h on a single CPU but I was able to extract around 5 GB of games, filtering time control between 900 and 3600 seconds plus dividing the files into the ECO codes A – E.
(Update:) Someone asked for the uci-analyser, here you go:
