'In a rapid game in Tilburg in 1992 between former World Champion Anatoly Karpov and Alexander Chernin, White had just promoted a pawn to a queen on the e8 square. Black made the discovered check 53...Kd6+. Karpov, with very little time remaining, did not see that he was in check
and played the illegal move 54.Qe6+. The arbiter required Karpov to
play a legal move with his queen instead (since he touched it), and he
selected 54.Qe7+?? (54.Qd7+ Rxd7+ 55.Kg6 would still have drawn. After 54...Rxe7+, Karpov lost the game.' ~ en.wikipedia.org
