    Practically every "undercover grandmaster" game ends with the grandmaster stomping the unsuspecting park/pub player and then we all laugh at the poor outclassed schlub that thought they were hot stuff.
    I guess that doesn't work when the schlub is an IM.

      @piethrower91 7 днів тому

      My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Some times he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy, the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical, summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds, pretty standard really. At the age of 12 I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it.

    Good sport and time - by the way, the tournament rules of blitz specify that it's the opponent's obligation to point out that his adversary has run out of time. Nobody else can do it, and if the player fails to notice and the game goes on and he loses, even though his opponent has run out of time, it still counts as a valid win. In classical chess, it's another matter entirely - there the arbiter can stops the game if one of the players runs out of time.
