I went to see the legend TAL in 1978 at the Savoy in London when he did a Blindfold Chess exhibition taking on a staggering 54 boards a legend and genius ever remembered!

I played him in 1988, In Saint John NB Canada. At the World Open. In a simul, not in the tournament.

I only met a top 10 blitz grandmaster, sat in Awong Liander's chair for round 2 of the Charlotte Open and saw Dina, Fun Master Mike, and Danny Rensch. (I think seeing Tal is better tbh)

Fun Master Mike recognized me from Super Nationals VIII lolll.

I wore a mario cap, I'm very eccentric-

But to answer OP's question, you cannot escape Tal, or scholar's mate.

Thanks man finally some respect. I mean there are 2 types of scholars mate "The Classic Variation" and "The Tal Variation" you can avoid the first one, but the second?

Tal Variation, lol

Tal is one of the greats.

He is the most innovative mind next, or even equal to Fischer himself.
