Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 3214898, member: 250"] So, from this article I learn (and it is counterintuitive to me) that Chess Grand Masters tail off starting in their 40s. This made this guy's sudden rise in his late 50s look very dodgey and there was grumbling. Tournaments ... cell phones verboten 'cuz chess programs are accessible on cell phones. So this grey haired phenom got busted, captured on a break sitting on a john with his cell phone! [ATTACH type="full" alt="44754"]44754[/ATTACH] I guess he had it taped to his leg? Anyway, I think it is hilarious.
