Default Rybka vs a GM at pawn odds , the GM is UP 2 games to zip..


Even now I would bet serious money that he would mop the floor with
you giving you 5-1 blitz odds. In his prime he used to be able to do
that with IMs, spotting them several cognacs to boot. Ask anyone who
saw him play in NYC in the 80s.

I remember those days. He also was a chain smoker and could beat you
with those odds smoking a cigarette at the same time. A lot of people
don't realize how good Dzindzi really was in those days. After he got
married and had a daughter he literally became a different man and
even played first board for the olympiad and thrashed Beliavsky in
there encounter.
