We are looking for when Bobby began to think in terms of Chess960. I personally believe that Bobby was thinking about it back in 1972 and earlier! We will never know. Bobby's frustrations with Chess, where can they be sourced from? Just turmoil in his mind? Was he actually frustrated or just appeared to us that way? What chess thoughts were going on in Bobby's mind in his twenty years away from the game? Perhaps because of the stringent requirement on disciplined chess study, he was denied the simple curiosity that could not be expressed through his career? Can anyone truly say that a great genius like Bobby did not at some very early point in his life already ask the simple question, "but what happens if I switch just the positions of the king and queen and leave the castling the same? Why not do that instead of studying to death the same position over and over again?"<br /><br />Of course he would have. Even I did and I'm a patzer!<br /><br />CheersHarryOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971894954907592580noreply@blogger.com
