Hitler, Lenin, And Chess

That's not nearly as impressive as the time that Hitler met Winston Churchill for a game...

But the Hitler vs. Superman match ended quickly in a scuffle when Superman used his x-ray vision and spotted a cheating device hidden under Hitler's shirt.

One could argue that the match presented here is not the match and it was never really found/known what was the match. That is true, we have no way of knowing if this is the real match. On the other hand, white is, allegedly, playing white in the picture, but maybe the guy confused which one played which pieces (not that uncommon). I searched the game in chessbase database and the game is around move 9 (in the sense that everything else are "novelties")

Lenin, revolution, 1917

Nineteen hundred and seventeenth...

incidentally the anniversary of the Soviet Revolution! A hundred years ago, an event occurred which changed the history of the world. that 1917 year.

Communism, Lenin and the Sickle. All that was and what happened because of this. Free education, the submarine and the crossing humans with chimpanzees. A century has passed.

I propose to discuss here the events that occurred over a century period of history. perhaps I'll start with catalogue of the most important soviet events 1917-2017.

Actually as a matter of fact, Hitler resigned this game when Lenin had only one game for a checkmate. 

What I find funny in this all is the fact that Hitler had black in this famous game........ bkwink

Hitler hilted but Stalin stalled him.

Somebody just wanted to make a quick buck off of Hitler or Lenin fans so they concocted a silly tale taking advantage of the simple coincidence that they both happened to be in a particular city during a particular time...

I agree it seems like its not true. Also did Lenin really go to an art school?
