      That's called pre move , guess in his mind he was playing online and decided to pre move to draw the match ASAP and it finally came as a shock to realize that this was OTB not online , probably that's what he whispered in his coach ear. Guess that's what happens to Genius players from time to time so no need to worry but thanks for giving entertainment for the audience and this will last for some time but Sam should not let this get to his head else he might crack. So don't worry u r very talented player and many can only dream of getting as good as you.

      we're humans, we get carried by emotions in some moments, ofc the logical action would be to just wait the move, think, and play the correct response since his opponents has much less time. There is no secret on that. Every player who has played over the board knows how sometimes we act without logic and immediately blunder, we invert move orders of a sequence or anything else really. It's rare but it happens

      @@panda4247 It is not only that, but I see in this tournament, both player's sign, it looks like the team managers might also sign. There is duplicate copies or is it triplicate? They are creating enough paperwork to fill up the hall of records. Totally unnecessary. Today's DGT boards do it all. Some of them have small camera's attached to the board too. Thus, nothing is missed.
      If a player got angry as the result of losing a game and ripped up the scorecards (both his and his opponents) I wonder what the sanction would be?

      no, it was a draw, the remaining pawn for black was going to be traded eventually, not enough material for a victory, you can still lose but at this level, Q+B vs Q is 99.99% a draw, unfortunately he got carried by his emotions before reaching this drawish setup

    Well stuff happens... understandable. But to me next BIG a blunder by SAM was resigning immediately & prematurely when there was still some LIFE left in his position!... It was move 90...Both were low on time...Qh2 was played by black AFAIK with 4 secs on clock.. then it was “emotional” transformation of board situation for black when white touched his king...At such time crunch & emotional situations players many times switch off CALCULATION MODE of their brain, (which demands more n more time) and start playing with quick intuition & GUT FEELING MODE to play moves in such situation... Therefore, say after Qg2 Kc1 say seeing low on time, if black decides with “gut feeling” My Bishop is black so no worries about a1 square…I am gonna snap off that white Queen ASAP and say opts for line Qg2 91. Kc1
    Qb2+ 92. Kd1 Qxb3+ 93. Kd2 Qxd3+ 94. Kxd3 … there is cold shower and white can say to black “it is again DRAW Mr. Einstein!” as 94… Bb2 95. Kc4 Bxa3 96. Kb5 Bb2 97. Kxa4=
    Notice, If black had his king “somehow” on d5,c5,b5,a5 instead of f4 after queen exchange in this line , due to BODYCHECK blacks decision based GUT Feeling would have WORKED! & given him a easy win.
    Let’s assume Black is smarter and does not go for queen exchange then still it is time crunch and black has many Queen checks to face.
    Come-on SAM why did you resign man?! You got to fight on. Your Opponent is also Human like you and not a chess software. Come-on SAM!!

      No, it's not moving the king back that is illegal...
      He moved the king to an illegal position, but did not press the clock, so he did not complete the move yet. He realized that WOULD BE an illegal move, so he brought it back.
      Still OK.
      However, as he already touch the king, now he has to make a valid move with the king. Sadly, that move is losing, so he resigned
