Miles and Christiansen had prearranged a draw. Well, Larry carelessly played 5...Bf5??, and Tony wiped the e2 square with his thumb, and played 6.Nxe4 instead.
lol
Letting Larry know that was a really dumb move before going ahead with the draw.
I didn't know the story, and I'm surprised it was published without noting the mistake.

Nobody mentioned the whole Zapata- Anand game story.
It is like that:
Played a few months before the Anand game. Miles and Christiansen had prearranged a draw. Well, Larry carelessly played 5...Bf5??, and Tony wiped the e2 square with his thumb, and played 6.Nxe4 instead...
But the incredible thing is that the game was published in Chess Informant without noting the blunder, and Vishy had the bad luck to carelessly browse Informant a few hours before playing the game.
The rest is history...
I knew this, funny story. It shows how a legendary player can make the mistake to believe blindly some chess sources.

And that is why simply memorizing opening moves will get you nowhere.

Do you guys know what a spam is? Why don't write about how to help this girls on her chess path instead off writing about your games or a games of former world champ? That is something that is just rude to her. She asked for our help and opinion not random posts about something totally unrelated to her problem. Stop the spamming - stick to the topic.

horny? wtf? i don't really care if she is a boy or a girl or something else, or if is she/he/it really on avatar. That is not important in this topic on the subject of chess. No need for the rude statements like "horny little boys".

Leaving alone the issue of his obvious troll topic fooling you, I'll say that "she" already got good advice in this topic, and the other topics "she" has made about this over the last few days.
This is how topics normally work, after the OP is answered, people start talking about different topics.
