  meloncio: Yes, but Arturo Pomar was only 11 years old in 1943. He was then a "child prodigy".

  bumpmobile: <maloncio> Right! That's why he's Alexander Alekhine, and I'm sitting on my comoputer at 4 in the morning.
May-15-04   Dudley: The opening transposed into the Goring gambit, which is one of the most dangerous double king pawn attacking systems, later a specialty of the strong British player Penrose. He did very well with it until defeated convincingly by Smyslov. Its a good opening at lower levels however.
