Former Vice World Champion - GM Nigel Short was "soundly" beaten in round 2 by Ketevan Arakhamia-Grant with the help of ...Nigel....own Nokia handphone ..... They are playing in the The European Chess Championships which start from 9-18 September in Liverpool, UK.

I found this incident so funny..especially the way MIG Greengrad wrote it...read his article here
The incident is quite weird, Nigel mentioned that he actually have switch off his handphone but the phone produced a battery low signal with sound. " All tournament chess player : take note !"
