“The French grand siècle is most often viewed thru the gilt-framed mirrors of #Versailles, showing the pomp & splendour, the feasts and formality of #LouisXIV’s reign #Marais, #Hotteterre, #Philidor, #Montéclair, #DAnglebert #Dornel…”

April 17th. Today I worked on two games I lost on lichess.org in April:

https://lichess.or/vFTLO0C2pep3 (rapid)
https://lichess.or/xxMYNv0OE46s
(blitz)

The #rapid one is a #Philidor where I went out of the book at move 3 and later missed a #queen #threat (#checklist)

In the #blitz one (#Italian game) I went out of the #book at move 4 and later missed a #capture of a #pawn (#checklist)

Making sure I properly follow the #checklist is still my main problem

The Mechanical Turk was a #chess playing machine invented in 1770 which appeared to have a skill greater than most masters. The chess set played notable figures of the 1800s, including #BenjaminFranklin #NapoleonBonaparte and Francois-Andre Danican #Philidor, then considered the best chess player in the world.

Many suspected that a human operated the machine, but it was not until its destruction in 1854 that the son of one of it's owners revealed that strong chess players were hidden within the chasis of the turk and operating the controls.
