Think the solution is simple.

He could have mirrored one of the better gms game against two opponents rather than one.

that would only work if both oppos played identical moves which they wouldn't

It always is with him.  He's very clever at clouding the obvious.

Derren said that he was shit before they started so it obviously wasn't down to his own chess skills.I'm more confused how he did the number thing ?

Look how he forcefully takes the paper from the GM but leaves the envelope with him. He has a mistake in there to make it look real.

FOR THOSE INTERESTED - Im going to set up a tournament at around 3pm called Blondes have more fun. It will be a 10 man Swiss tournament. There will most likely be non members of the forum join and I cant stop them, but keep an eye on the chessmaniac site after 3pm and register as quick as you can if you want to play.

Also if any of the brits are interested in joing a chess team online you can join the British Bulldogs if you so wish Wink

I was the four time running chess champion during my primary school years, and started playing when I was young, like three or something ridiculous. Haven't played now for -years-. So rusty it's horrible.
