      I was hanging out with some ppl and there was a chess board. So I asked if anybody knew how to play and this 12 yr old girl said she did. I asked her if she was any good and her mom and this other woman that was there started talking about how good she was and most likely she'd beat me so I scholar mated her twice in a row. Then I taught her how to do it and defend then I played her normally.

    He has played Tal, one of those players who are so admired and personally I do love to watch his games.
    Your dad plays chess like a beast. In the first couple of matches his moves were so quick and from the 3rd game on he started getting a bit tired yet he plays amazing. Honestly after the first couple of matches wherein he showed who really the boss is, he went kind of easy on you...
    Hats off to your father for playing such brilliant chess player. I don't think I can even be 1% of him in the game of chess.
    Btw: your father gives me a real challenge in shaking legs. I am curious to know if he shakes his legs even when he goes to sleep...
