A Disaster at the USCL
Monday, November 16, 2009 at 11:27PM Looking through the games in this week's TWIC, I was shocked to find the following game from last week's USCL playoffs:
US Chess League, Internet Chess Club, 2009
White: Becerra, Julio (2557)
Black: Nakamura, Hikaru (2710)
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.e5 Nd5 4.Nc3 e6 5.Nxd5 exd5 6.d4 Nc6 7.dxc5 Bxc5 8.Qxd5 d6 9.Bc4 Qe7 10.Bg5 f6 11.0-0-0 dxe5 12.Rhe1 1-0
(The game, with comments, can be replayed here.)
The next time you're miniatured, remember that it even happens to the best players in the world. Errare humanum est!
