| jtd200: "I always though Waitzkin was overated..."
I really haven't heard anyone ever talk about him... There was a movie about him, but that was justifiable; he was a prodigy. He never became anything spectacular in his later years, though, and noone really disputes that. |

| jtd200: Really, though, although she was very young, this game falls under that borderline "disrespect" category, with no resignation after such a drastic material difference without positional compensation... |

| Knight13: <He never became anything spectacular in his later years, though, and noone really disputes that.> Waitzkin himself justified that with the argument that he was receiving too much media and pressure to "have to win." He said he couldn't really focus and develop his game under it, so he gave up. He couldn't simply enjoy chess because of his father. |
