Do you recall, Art, some years ago you showed a video on a chess game between two very good players, a man and a woman and then, on request you showed it again. Do you know which game I mean? I would love to see it again.

Think I know it. One of the players was Duchess but I can't remember who the woman was. πŸ˜† πŸ˜†

Im sorry, but I'm drawing a blank here.
I thought maybe it was local players like Brian Wall and Anthea Carson, but I couldn't find any games on video of them playing. This one is a favorite Carlsen vs Kosteniuk. Carlsen ends up making a bad move, tries to change it, Alexandra call him on it, Magnus walks away. Poor sportsmanship, so probably not the video you're thinking of.

Good video had not seen that.
Reminded me of a video where Kasparov plays a young Judit Polgar and touches a piece then moves another one. Except Kasparov gets away with it.

The game I enjoyed watching, the woman won and she ran short of time but still made it with hardly any time left, touch and go.

I remember there was a Bob, but don't remember whether he was the arm wrestler who broke his arm. Maybe the same guy, huh?

He posted on Saturday, so I wouldn't be overly concerned just now.
