Notes

Tony Quintanilla played White and Peter Aronson played Black. March 2001. This game illustrates the use of the edge of the board. It also shows some of the advantages and pitfalls of the jump move, particularly the cost of neglecting this capability. The above image shows the next to final position on turn 12. It's Black's turn. Black's Queen is about to capture the White King by jumping over it to the next square. Black wins.
