I had heard of this mate before (obviously!) but never dreamed it had been played in an actual game :-) It's funny how this says 'Grob Opening: General'...

 | | FSR: 1...e6!!! was a psychological masterstroke. Had Black played 1...e5?? (sometimes considered the best move against Grob's), White probably wouldn't have played 2.f4, being afraid to lose a pawn, and would have played something like 2.Bg2. The wimpy-looking 1...e6!!! emboldened White to continue with his plan of king-side expansion. |

| Apr-27-10 | | rapidcitychess: Who's the <Wood>pusher here? |
|
| May-02-10 | | cjgone: Needs to be a chess game of the day. |
|
| Nov-02-10 | | Tigranny: I've never seen a Fool's Mate in a game like this before. |

|
| Mar-26-11 | | redorc19: wow... almost all on this page deserve to get ignored on my profile for wasting time kibitzing here... then again, I am kibitzing about others kibitzing, so... never mind!!! |
|
| Mar-27-11 | | ForeverYoung: Lance is a player to be reckoned with. I haven't seen him for a number of years. Mr. Wood? Unfortunately he passed away a few years back. Way too young. He was a strong player in is own right. |

 | | technical draw: The white player's name is not Lance Darling. After foolishly losing this game he turned to his wife and said, "Lance, darling". The rest is just urban legend. |

 | | GrahamClayton: <whiskeyrebel>this game looks like a hoax blindly reprinted probably from "northwest chess" magazine. whiskeyrebel,
The Idaho Chess Quarterly for October 1957 states that the game was published in "Chess World", December 1951, with the players being Kemp v Watts. |

 | | Phony Benoni: No doubt this "game" has actually happened, but this version is almost surely a joke. As I mentioned earlier, I played Lance Darling around this time; he was rated 1965, and obviously would not have fallen for this through ignorance. "NWC April" undoubtedly means the April issue of Northwest Chess magazine, and we all know what happens in April. I seem to remember Darling being from Oregon, so he probably knew what was going on. Of course, I also remember he had a very attractive girl friend who sat next to him during our game. She probably distracted me more than him, but you never know... |

| Jan-03-12 | | King Death: <chesthinker: what is deep rybka's 20-ply eval after 2.f4> Yeah, and how long does the engine take for its eval? |
|
| Jun-13-12 | | Desukaan: Lance darling, you are the worst chess player ever. |
|
| Sep-05-12 | | wildrookie: Wow! Wood plays deeeeep chess indeed. |
|
| Sep-12-12 | | The Last Straw: You're lucky,<Phony Benoni>, to have met this guy. If you somehow meet him again, ask him to narrate this game :-) . |
|
| Sep-12-12 | | The Last Straw: Note: Please don't tease Lance, other kibitzers. |

 | | Shams: <"NWC April" undoubtedly means the April issue of Northwest Chess magazine, and we all know what happens in April.> As an on-again, off-again subscriber I can vouch that Northwest Chess does indeed go in for April 1 silliness. |
