Nov-23-17		FSR: Weirdly, the position after my fifth move could also have arisen from a sideline of Petroff's Defense: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nxe5 Nc6? 4.Nxc6 dxc6 5.d3 Bc5. Of course 6.Bg5? was a lemon, and 8.Kg1?? an even worse one.

Sep-14-18		whiteshark: <FSR> I found the following example given by Emanuel Lasker in his <Common sense of Chess>. Compared to your game he switched black's moves 6+7. ;) "<1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Nxe5 Nc6> Black evidently believes in the principle of quick development, and even neglects to take White's e-pawn, in order to gain time. <4. Nxc6 dxc6 5. d3 Bc5 6. Bg5> A mistake; he ought to guard against the threatened 6...Ng4 with 6. Be2. Now he is overtaken by a catastrophe. click for larger view <6... Nxe4 7. Bxd8 Bxf2+ 8. Ke2 Bg4#>" click for larger view [Laskerjahr 2018]

Sep-14-18		john barleycorn: Well, is it not it just the Legal's mate on white?

Sep-28-18		FSR: <whiteshark> Nice idea! Wish I'd tried that. I don't think I've ever managed to pull off Legal's Mate.

Oct-10-18		FSR: I played it again in this game, although White held out a lot longer: https://www.denverchess.com/games/v...

Oct-10-18		perfidious: <FSR>, the star of today's game was definitely not White's light-squared bishop--then for good measure, he decided to immure one of his rooks while never developing the other!

Oct-10-18		moronovich: Chess is not a game about wood.

May-03-20		FSR: <Sally Simpson> Nice find. If I ever get this position again, I'm going to try for Légal's Mate. It pains me that I've never pulled it off. I've done other cool things like mating by castling and mating by en passant, multiple times even.

May-04-20		Sally Simpson: * Hi FSR, I hope one day you get a Legal Mate. I could not contain the sheer joy of getting my first one. I ran out of the tournament hall and showed it to passersby and people at a bus stop. That night the players and officials held a Legal Mate celebration party in my honour. *

Sep-03-20		FSR: <Sally Simpson> You did it in a tournament game? That is really cool! I've pulled off every other weird checkmate, e.g. four mates by castling (the world record AFAIK) and two mates by capturing en passant (at least tied for the world record AFAIK), but all of those were Internet blitz games. See Game Collection: Mate by Castling and Game Collection: En passant mates.

Sep-03-20		Sally Simpson: * I've never castled with a mate. When castling I use to write 'ZOOM' or ZOOOM' on my scoresheet, (I got a wee warning about it once. ) I suppose if I ever got a mate Queenside castling then I would have written 'BOOOM!' I did a Heidenfeld - Wolfgang Heidenfeld (kibitz #10) once in a league game. I won and we were going over the game, around about move 8 I took on e7 with King and it went back o e8. Later in the game I forgot about the King moves and castled. If this had been spotted by my opponent I would have been forced to do a touch move with my King which would have lost. As we were getting close to part where I castled I realised I had cocked-up. I made an excuse and left just before the position where I castled appeared. (I wonder what happened when that lad tried to enter his game in a D.B.) *

Sep-05-20		FSR: <Sally Simpson> Hilarious - though I don't suppose your opponent was amused when he belatedly realized what had happened. As you can see, I suggested illegal castling in a 2012 comment to R P Michell vs Nimzowitsch, 1925, so you and Heidenfeld aren't alone in that sort of thing.

Sep-05-20		jith1207: <Sally Simpson>, That was so hilarious, I think that guy left the world of Chess that day or he would've surely ripped you off in your player page, mentioning that game and entering that scoresheet in the kibbutz. Or that's what I suppose I'd have done if I were that lad. Anyway, it was his mistake not noticing it as well - not to mention missing out an easy victory - so not really only a mistake from the perpetrator. It would've been even more funnier if he had been left fuming in the playing hall after he realised why you had excused yourself from the game discussion abruptly.
