Ouch...

Aug-16-06  Runemaster: "A Philadelphian Yankee in King Emanuel's Court". Off with his head!
Aug-16-06  Poulsen: However, at this point in time Emanuel was not yet king ...
Aug-16-06  Runemaster: <Poulsen> You've forgotten the time travel element of the story.

Black played 18...Qg5, not Qb5. The losing move was actually 17.Bxd5; Lasker probably just missed 17...Qxd5 18.Nxf4 Qd4+.
