once Mikhail Tal(former world chess champion) used all possible means to keep his opponent away from castling in a game, only to remember in the end that his opponent's king already moved twice earlier on !!

First world chess champion W.Stenitz, playing a game employed a deep hidden combination on his opponent but his opponent disappointed him as he didnt turned up and went home without actually resigning.
than Stenitz attracted the viewers and showed how game shud go if his opponent had tried to play further,the possible continuation till the end.
