==Example game== Paul Yearout vs. George Jelliss, 1996 AISE Grand Prix <br />{{small|[Annotations by George Jelliss; moves returning to board A are notated "/A".]}} {{alice chess diagram | tright | | | |bd|qd|kd|bd| | |pd|pd| |pd|pd|pd| | | | | | | | | | | | | |nl|bl| | | | | | |pl| | | | | | | | | | | | |pl|pl|pl| | | |pl|pl | | | | | |bl| |rl <!-- Board A --> | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |nd| | |nd| |pd | | |pd| | | | |rd | | | | | | |rd| | | | | |pl|nl| | | | | |ql| | | | | | |kl|rl| | | | <!-- BoardB --> | Position after 11.0-0-0 }} '''1. d3 Nf6 2. Nc3 c5 3. Qd2 Nc6''' (To give a direct check to the king the checking piece must come from the other board, so it is necessary first to transfer forces to the other board.) '''4. d4/A Rb8''' (This way of developing rooks is common in Alice chess.) '''5. e3 g5''' (This prevents the Bc1 coming to g5 or f4.) '''6. f4 Rbg8/A''' (Guarding Pg5 on the other board.) '''7. Nd5/A h6 8. Nf3 gxf4/A''' (Inconsistent play on my part. Ne4/A now looks better to me.) '''9. Bxf4 Rg4 10. Be5/A Rh5 11. 0-0-0''' [diagram] (Perhaps judging that the activated black force now being on the second board the king might be safer there. The black queen is now effectively 'pinned': 11...Qβc7/b6{{chesspunc|??}} 12.Qd8{{chessAN|#}}.) '''11... Ne4/A 12. Bc7 Ra4/A 13. Ba6 Bg7''' (The idea is 14...Rc4+ 15.c3/Nc3 Bxc3+/A.) '''14. Bb5/A Rc4+ 15. Kb1/A Rf5/A 16. Ba5/A''' (Desperate measures now needed to save the 'pinned' queen.) '''16... Rxd5 17. Qxd5/A Qxa5''' (Threatening 18...Qa1#.) '''18. a3 Qd2/A 19. Qxd7+ Kf8''' (I put these two moves in as an 'if...then' clause, but it seems Paul may not have noticed the discovered check, so perhaps I should have kept quiet!) '''20. Qxg7/A Qc3''' (Stops Qh8#.) '''21. Rd8/A {{chessAN|1β0}}''' (Black resigns. If 21...Bd7/Be6/Nf6 [then] 22.Qg8/Re8/Qh8#.)
