There was a thread on this earlier I believe in the chess only forum. It is accepted by some that his only loss was the outcome of a mouseslip.

Judging from his play, I would say that I believe it. 🙂

How can you have a mouse slip when you're not playing live chess? I mean yeah you can put a piece in the wrong spot but you've got a bit of time to look at the board. Right?

well i remember that there is a rule called "touch move" once you touch a piece you must move that piece. so i guess it still is possible.
