Here's a really bizarre sequence of three consecutive blunders that happened in one of my recently finished games. I was Black and doing fine until I played 47...Qf5+ in the position below. I think that I forgot how the pawns move looking at it from black's perspective, there's no other possible explanation. Now, either my opponent was sporting and didn't want to win that way or he overlooked it as well. Either way, he played 48.Kxh6. But it didn't help me, because I followed it up with the "crushing" 48...Ne6, after which followed 49.Rc8+ Ke7 50.exf5 and I had to resign. 
Anyway, I guess the moral of the story is it's never too late to blunder. And don't try this at home

I admire your openness about showing your mistake here!

Funny... I had exchanged gentleness with my opponent already, where some times both queen hang and no one takes them each turn, for 3 or 4 moves in a row! But it was online playing blitz! Never saw that in postal chess!

Thanks!
I have decided to change the thread name into a more humorous one, maybe someone else may be encouraged to post such funny (well, maybe not at first ) accidents, that just make you slap your forehead and say "D'oh!"
After all, this too is part of chess, and can be fun if taken light-heartedly.

A nice game I came across....
Came from here http://www.xs4all.nl/~timkr/records/#Shortest%20game
Whilst it's said to be a joke game on the site, still a pretty funny game huh!

One of my recently finished game. It deserves its place here:
I'm Black of course  THIS is not the way to begin a game!!
Seems like I and my brain are not very friendly these days...
