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: 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. |
