I saw a few weeks ago a thread bby David Tebb that said that he beat Casparov. I would like to know if he really did or was it just a lie.

Why would you doubt it? He posted the game. And it was a simul, so Kasparov was playing many others at the same time. Under the circumstances, it's not so remarkable. Certainly not enough to accuse someone of lying. I think someone else at RHP beat Seirawan once.

I doubt Tebb was expecting to win either, just give Kasparov a run for his money.

I can understand why some people are sceptical, but I promise that I did beat Kasparov, and here's the proof:-

I just like to add that it is remarkable to have beaten Kasparov (regardless of it being at a simul) ...

I have once played a Simul against P. Leko and he wiped me out. Not saying that I'm the one to measure oneself against but indicating here how hard it is to beat people of that class... Once again, well done David

Yes indeed! Few have the skill to do what David did. But being the top player here - it is not hard to believe.

David? Which one is you?

actually, i happened also to beat Kasparov in a simultaneous exhibition last year, he was not pleased and said it was a sequence he had never seen before but he would certainly use it in his next game against Kramnik. Here is the game:

venue😕aint Trinian's School Assemby Hall
date: april 1st 2003
martinbeaver (white) 1101 vs Kasparov (black) 2845

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 d6 4. Nc3 Bg4 5. h3 Bh5; 6. Nxe5! Bxd1; 7. Bxf7+ Ke7 8. Nd5+ Mate!
