Re: Bad Beat in Chess?
[ QUOTE ]
Chess players can be pretty weird to begin with. Seeing the most amazing combinations one minute, then staring at a board like they had never seen one before the next.
Such concentration and I think some weird self-hypnotizing or something takes place for some of the space-outs for these odd blunders.
I mean, Fischer obviously is an odd dude.
And I think it was Bronstein who once took 45 minutes to make his FIRST freaking move of a match.
I think that some of these guys have some periods of legit nuttyness.

No kidding. Go to any major USCF event and you'll quickly see that there are odd people at every skill level. It's quite a scene man...
