Melonhead: I recommend a Covert Cyborg Chess league for Ivanov and his ilk. Subterfuge computer gear hidden in clothing (must be invisible) should be allowed its own competition!!! I would love to watch players with hidden technology play. So future! Why don't we give Ivanov buddies to play ...

Melonhead: I just don't understand the end...
 
   Jul-04-13 Lasker vs J Mieses, 1889 (replies)
 
Melonhead: 21. Qf7+ In the actual game White went for a piece up endgame via ( 21. Re8 Rxe8 22. Rxe8 Qa5+ 23. Qxa5 Nxa5 24. Rxc8 Rxc8 25. Nxc8 and, for some reason, Black didn't resign and instead hung out until move 37 before finally giving up. ) 21... Kh6 22. Qxg6+!! Kxg6 23. Rg3+ Kh7 24. ...

Melonhead: These games must have caused a stir. I think they were friends having a laugh and writing and analysing the lot.
 
   Nov-25-12 S Neubronner vs So, 2005 (replies)
 
Melonhead: Amazing. I still can't see sacs like that and I'm nearly 3 times his age :)

Melonhead: I'd rather be NN.
 
   Sep-10-12 Hort vs Keres, 1961 (replies)
 
Melonhead: Hi. Can someone please explain 46. Qb1 when there seems to be a free pawn begging with 46. Qxf5+. The queen can still block the pawn after the king has moved. The pawn in question comes in handy to Keres later.

Melonhead: Super-cool-looking final position. Interesting game.
