Irina’s flying king By GilaChess 24 May 2008 at 8:50 pm and have No Comments

Read this blog post in Hairulov’s chess blog. It’s blitz sudden death and Irina lost on timewith just one second difference. Emotions are hard to contain in such tense circumstances I guess. Such drama!!

All this captured on YouTube.
