So Andy has pulled an April Fool on us
Still, I would love to see this game played again, and then Black suddenly play 4. ... Rxa5 =)
There was also a case a few years ago of 2 chess-players, a brother and sister, who had flown all the way from the USA to play a European tournament, and found themselves paired against each other.
Their protest was to play a slightly longer stalemate (12 or 14 moves, I think) but with no captures !
Can any-one find the game?
