Males More Likely To Take Risky Detrimental Moves in Chess, from Kim Zussman
Here is an interesting paper by Swedish researchers Christer Gerdes and Patrik Gransmark on how male chess players are more likely to take risky moves, to their detriment.
Nigel Davies comments:
Long ago I realized that the best procedure against most risk averse females was to riskily snatch a hot pawn or damage their structure in a way that would force them to attack.
But the researchers do not appear to have a category for my behavior…
Needless to say I wouldn't do it against Judit.
