Well, if you're going to count games where one player doesn't turn up, then there are lots of even shorter games than 1.c4 1-0
As the flag fell, we congratulated and he said, "Yea, I know, I thought he had me for a minute there".
Originally posted by Black ScorpionOH!! That is just sensational!! Gotta remember that (like anyone plays 2.Nd2, hahaha) 😀
between 2 grandmasters in the early 1900's
1.d4 Nf6
2.Nd2 e5
3.dxe5 Ng4
4.h3 Ne3
White resigns.
if white plays fxe3 then black plays Qh4+ then white is forced to play
g3 and black wins Qxg3#.if white doesnt play fxe3 he loses his queen.
what a superb finish.
Originally posted by Positional PlayerToo bad he didn't get a rating boost for his "victory". The same happend to me, but when you let the clock run for an hour, and you didn't even get a game, and no ratings boost- its annoying, not victorious.
