depends on how the female gm looks out of form
Who would you pay to see play against each other?
Sort:
Myself and anyone else who wants to pay me!
How about a live rematch between icc mystery guest71 and Nigel short in lightning one minute game rematch? What anybody like to see that?

k. just read the article. and yup, definitely i'd like to see icc mystery guest play. I would not doubt that it is Fischer. A guy like that is not just going to retire quietly in exile...I don't see him doing anything else except play chess, not just play - but be a virtuoso
I'd pay to see Will Smith vs Howard Stern
Don't quite fit your description of Male GM vs Female GM tho.

Do those two guys play chess?
The title of the thread trumps what I wrote in #1, btw.

They do :D Howard Stern is ~1600, and Will Smith is about the same I think.

Those are decent ratings.
I wonder what other celebrities play chess...and if there are any GMs among them.
Hate to tell you fischer died he did not play those games said so himself. So guest71 is still alive and well. Somewhere. A few months ago he posted on nigels twitter account I am going to play chess again. I want to play you again. Nigel did not answer. So one can only assume he doesn't want to lose 8 in a row an say I have to go! Like he did in first match. One day people will see all those original games posted on the internet an know guest71 wad not Fischer or some dummy running a computer program!

Plus, the first and last time I was in a state high school tournament 35 years ago there wasn't a single girl
there...let alone a girl with a GM level.
I'm curious as hell.
Now I would watch a Jennifer Shahade vs. Alisa Melekhina match
I just looked up Alisa Melekhina, read the wikipedia article, and I was like WOW!
Sting is a big chess enthusiast a musician as well but no virtuoso.

Scheiße!! Now that's embarrassing. I didn't even know Fischer's been dead for 6 years...I better get out of my cave once in a while and keep up with this world. Scheiße!!
In that case, maybe some corporation is developing the next SUPER chess AI ... there was a profile here a few months ago - who played game after game and won every single one of them. I was suspecting that it was something along those lines.

Yeah, I saw her on youtube, when I was looking over something about the Sicilian opening and came across her video a few months ago. I was impressed.
