Best comeback - As they sat down to start game 3 in the recently finished World Championship, Magnus Carlsen was caught on camera saying to Anand: "Nice wig Vishy, what's it made of?". Quick as a flash Anand quipped: "Your mum's chest hair!".

Not my game, but an inspirational example, nonetheless. Interestingly, after winning the queen (for a piece and a pawn, but not much else) in move 11, the White player did nothing else but defended for the remainder of the game.

The only game I won with no queen vs queen I think. Black presses all the way, then gets himself into trouble, blundering (or saccing?🙂) his queen and only then manages to hunt the white king down.

I looked over a few of my comeback wins. To be frank, it's just a matter of me blundering first. Then them returning the favor.

He wasn't really down a queen, but a queen and two pawns for a rook and a knight.

I was at a bikini bar once and the only dancer that day was outside taking a cigarette break. A guy walked in, saw all the guys and said, "It looks like a gay bar in here!"

One of the patrons came back with "Is that why you came?"
