I beat a grandmaster by luck once. He was playing 12 people at the same time.He set me up to take both rooks with my queen, but I took his pawn first. He called mate 3 moves in advance. I said I can move my king to avoid mate and he said when did you take my pawn. I knew there was a trap, but didn’t know what it was and pawn move looked like a strange move so I took it. If that would have made me a grandmaster then I would have set the bar pretty low :)

From Bronstein's book on the tournament: 27. BxR? KxB and just now noticing his error, Szabo became so upset that he used up almost all his time just sitting there. He then accepted the draw offered by Reshevsky nearly half an hour earlier, when White played BxR. After such a shock Szabo was not himself for a long time, which of course affected his performance in his later games in the tournament.

As this game was played in Round 19 of the series, perhaps both of the players were tired. I don't think either of them were young men in 1953, especially Reshevsky. Long tournaments have a way of screwing with your head, especially if you are getting up there in years. LS offered SR the draw. LS was in hopeless time pressure to finish the game, as he took an hour to recompose himself after blowing the lost checkmate, and never got back into form throughout the rest of the game.

"This round fell on a Saturday, and since Samuel Reshevsky wished to play only after the end of the sabbath, all of those paired with him on Saturdays agreed to start play late. Calculating that that I would not have to wait long after the start of the round at 5:30 PM, I took the bus to go sight-seeing with the others. But Reshevsky was late (as it turned out he attended divine service in Zurich), and the chief arbiter, Karel Opocensky , started the clock of the American Grandmaster at eight o'clock. My opponent showed up three-quarters of an hour later and demanded that the clock be reset, otherwise he would not sit down to play. He was composed and I was agitated, since I had already spent more than three hours in the hall and its surroundings. And waiting like that is worse than spending the time playing. Naturally, I stuck to my guns (I still do not understand why I, the competitor, was discussing this point), and then the Czechoslovak chief arbiter turned to an "impartial judge". He managed, unfortunately, to convince me, through different arguments, that I should begin playing at ten o'clock. (I will never forgive myself.) The result was never in doubt with such a frame of mind; I lost the game soon after midnight. Why have I retold this story? Mainly because it had a great effect on the game I played with Reshevsky in the second part of the tournament, which I wanted to win--after this--at any cost." "The nineteenth round was the 'crowning' of my performance (or should I use the term: 'decrowning'?) when I met Reshevsky again...." "It was this game that people most often tormented me with throughout my later career. Everyone 'seems' to know something about this infamous case, which in reality happened as follows." "I made my 19th move, and saw that I could get a decisive advantage with 20.Nf6+, if Black had castled, indeed I could mate, if the Knight was taken. My opponent had only a few minutes left to complete the 20 obligatory moves before the time-control, while I still had more than an hour. And Reshevsky did castle ... But perhaps it is simpler if I demonstrate the whole thing with a diagram." "I quietly played 20.Nf6+ (well, as quietly as one could after getting one of the tournament favorites into such a hopeless position in twenty moves, and seeing that 20...Bxf6 is followed by 21.Qxg6+ and mate!). Unexpectedly, Reshevsky grabbed the Knight, and his nervous, possibly calculated, move swept me along so that instead of giving mate as I planned, I took the Bishop of f6 in turn. (Some analysts wrote about mutual chess blindness. But there really was no blindness on my part!) I instantly realized what I had done, but it was too late, because Reshevsky immediately exchanged my d5 Bishop, and the mating position was over. I just sat there, shook my head, and was unable to make a single move for a whole hour. The spectators and the other players looked at no one but me for long, long minutes. It was a horrifying feeling ... Had I been able to think, I still could have controlled the game. But I was also in time trouble by then, and missed winning a Rook after a few moves, winning instead only the exchange. Well, my mind was almost paralyzed, and in no shape to cope with the ever more complicated tasks. I was so disturbed that I simply do not recall long periods of the game. They told me that I offered a draw, which my opponent accepted--luckily for me. He just did not see that if he had continued, I would have exceeded the time limit, even though I had more than 75 minutes more than he, six moves earlier." "The mutual errors were followed by 21...Bxd5 22.cxd5 Qd6 23.Qc3 Qxd5 24.Rfd1 Qf5 25.e4 Qe6? 26.Bg7 b6 27.Bxf8? (27.Bh6! f6 28.Qg3! wins a Rook because of the Qxg6+ mate threat) 27...Kxf8, and drawn, (allegedly) offered by White." Go to chessgames.com and look up Szabo v Reshevsky.

In my book Bronstein comments the following:: Szabo played otherwise: 27. Bg7×f8? Kg8×f8 immediately saw his error, and became so distraught that, after using up nearly all his remaining time, and still without making a move, he accepted the DRAW. Reshevsky had offered nearly half an hour before, right after White took the rook at f8 with his bishop. After such a traumatic experience, Szabo was a long time regaining his confidence, which naturally affected his play for the remainder of the tournament.

#suggestion Mariotti vs Gligoric, Venice 1971. Mariotti is the first italian who took the title of Grandmaster. His style is similar to that of Tal. He was also called "the italian fury". Tal and Mariotti were friends, so much so that one evening, in Milan, Tal and Mariotti went out for a walk and while they were talking Tal said to Mariotti: "if you had been born in Russia, you would have become world champion". Unfortunately, chess was not considered in Italy, and GM Mariotti had to work as a worker to support himself, so that he could not train like all the other chess players.
