I thought this was rather interesting
This video takes a look at the game played between Mamedyarov and Kurnosov at the Aeroflot Open in Moscow, Russia.
Mamedyarov accused his fellow grandmaster of cheating, and dropped out of the tournament. No evidence was found whatsoever, even after the arbiter checked the contents of Kurnosov's jacket. All that was found was a pencil, smokes, and a lighter.

Cigarettes, a lighter and a pen...
I know what has happened there.
he had the moves written on a cigarette, he went to the toilet to
see the moves and then smoked the evidence.
Cunning.
Old joke from an old thread.

BTW GreenPawn dude do you know Scottish chess player Graham Morrison? I was watching a rather interesting video of his, in a game against GM John Nunn

Hi Robbie,
I know Graham and his wife Lyne (an ex International player) very well.
We were chatting for quite a while at the recent Scottish.
A good player, I always thought he would go on to become a GM but
he gave up the game for a while.
I played in the same league team as him and Jonathan Parker, I use
to love watching their faces at some of the positions I was defending.
I think Jonathan once said "I don't like sitting next to Chandler
it's bad for your Chess...and he often wins."
