Относно: Re: Doubling cube in chess

Herlock Sholmes: It doesn't make sense to have a double cube in a game with perfect knowledge, like in chess. With chess, if the rating difference is high enough, I will have an expected chance of not losing of say 70%. That means, I'd double on move 1. In each and every game of the multigame match.

And then there's the matter of draws. Suppose you have two players, playing 2-point match. One player wins the first game, leading 1-0. In the second game, all there's left on the board are two kings and two bishops - one bishop each, of different colour. The person trailing offers a draw. The person leading refuses the draw, doubles instead. Now what?

Относно: Re: Doubling cube in chess

AbigailII: OK, here is the answer I: doubling cube is not something that I ( for example having rating 1680) am going to accept against the player with rating 2480 ... I just simply do not play with him/her if this option is specified ... but with playerhaving comparable rating I may be tempted to use it ... in case of tournaments opened for everybody, simply this option won't be available. But you may create with your 2480 a tournament restricting weaker players, and invite only these players who falls within the range of yours . And to make it more spicy, add doubling cube ...

As to question number II ... as far as I understand, two kings and two bishops is automatic draw, and ofering doubling cube is a nonsens. Of course there should be a necessity to review all the situations, but I am positive it can be worked out, and doubling cube can be used ...

Cheers, Andy.
