Title: "Are you talking to me?"
Post by: El Sid on August 14, 2010, 12:42:13 PM
Join Sid Harris on facebook -  for important news of financial melt down that's on the cards. Totally free information from unique point of view.
Negotiate the coming horrendous scenario with confidence. Remember, hard times - make better people - go with the flow - hard work never killed anyone, but the thought of it leaves some people very afraid. Amazing information - totally free -

There is such a thing as a free lunch - someone bought me one yesterday. Admittedly it only cost £5.95. ( also read about how I play heads up with myself in the mirror - and find out if it's me or the mirror image that always gets the edge. This technique is one of the greatest eyeopeners in poker.
Remember in a crazy world you need a five star lunatic to guide you through.

Photo reminds me of the movie where an intermediary plays two grand masters - walking from room to room - relaying their moves - without them being aware that they are actually playing each other.

Possibly Poirot - thought it was more contemporary.

Possibly Poirot before Derren Brown, it was an old trick even by Agatha Christie's time

Could be.  Was on a train... if I remember correctly.  Other than that, it's fairly hazy.

In the Chess game in From Russia With Love, they duplicated the moves of a famous Spassky and Bronstein chess game. The game I was thinking of originally, and vaguely, was ( I think ) in an episode of a TV series in the 60s or 70s. This by proxy chess scenario has obviously been used many time since and probably a few times before.
Shame there are no Grand Masters in poker that we might want to emulate, as opposed to the partially sighted leading the blind.

I'd love to play like Kasparov.
