Swapmeet: GOTD "Apacolypse"

Swapmeet: A shocking blunder by Carlsen. Even more shocking that Aronian missed it. Quite an embarrassing moment for the second and third highest rated players in history!

|
Swapmeet: 19.g3 Nh3+ looks pretty devastating
17...Nc6 must have been a shocker

Swapmeet: Being recognized could have been a good thing. Sounds like he maybe tightened up too much after that.

Swapmeet: Cheating with smartphones is unfortunately becoming easier and this problem will only worsen as the technology continues to improve. This guy should really be made an example of and be permanently banned from all rated events.

Swapmeet: His wikipedia article claims he had the first perfect tournament score at Berlin 1865 with a whopping +34 -0 =0! Seems a tad too good to be true, anyone know anything about this?

|
Swapmeet: 46...f3 or 46...h3 are met by 47.g3 and the bishop will always be able to stop the pawns while white scoops them up.

Swapmeet: Lol, Fischer would accuse the Bulgarians of causing the eruption to sabotage him and the match would never happen.

Swapmeet: Ok, so if Bxh7 isn't the answer then what is? Or is this supposed to be white to play and lose?
