Oh dear. That's hardly a standard opening...

Gardai were called to a top chess tournament after one of Limerick’s best players claimed he caught his opponent “redhanded” cheating by using a computer tablet to get moves from a chess engine. “After each move, he went to the toilet at least 20 times. I found him in the toilet with an Android checking the moves with a chess engine. I tried to get over the cubicle wall to grab the tablet from his hands and firstly, I was thinking to jump over that cubicle. The organisers followed me inside where I forced the cubicle door and I pulled this guy out from the toilet.”

A sad state of affairs, perhaps this fellow is related to the " infamous " Ivanov ?

Nope, the name's a bit widespread in Ireland (and elsewhere). I'm also no relation to Brian Dennehy, for example. And I don't coach Merrimack College in hockey either. :P
