This is hardly surprising if you stand back and take a look at what he is capable of.

In a recent finish, as white, he lobbed his Q unprotected into the heart of the black defenders. His opponent rated at 1700 is clearly no novice, but he had no defence here against Ironman's vision.

Game 589434


If you have the time, take a look at Ironman's combo from move 29 onward (though I suspect he had this up his sleeve from some moves earlier).

It's not just dramatic, it's awesome. Ironman, you are a showman! Brilliant!

That's really amazing. He certainly deserves his spot at #1.

Kudos to IronMan. By the way, can anyone tell me what his opponent was trying to do with the queen sacrifice at move 32?

No Idea! I wonder the same thing! Perhaps he saw the doom coming?

New King, and he's got an Iron Crown!

Well .. if somebody was going to get to the top it had to be the Ironman ... but lets not forget that Akizy is only two points behind.

Wish that I could have flipped the board to view it from black's point of view.
