  whiteshark: Lasker's <cheating> game, when he left the tournament hall after white's move <21. Bh6> for 37 minutes! When returning he moves 21... Kh8 (only winning move) within one minute.

Oct-18-07  RookFile: I'm unfamiliar with this cheating allegation, whiteshark. Tell us more?

I don't see what the big deal is about 21.....Kh8. White has the transparent threat of Qg4, or Qg1, leading to mate.

What else was Lasker supposed to do?

Apr-19-08  MindCtrol9: <I don't see any sense saying <cheating> about E.Lasker>
Mar-23-09  seagull1756: Lasker simply locked himself in the toilet and turned his laptop on. Danailov didn't mind.
