Technical draw is a fictional character living in the collective vision of chess games.com who has little relationship to the real technical draw; a neurotic and insecure figure obsessively clinging to the promise of power and wealth as if it were the only meaning in his life. He is also a made man in the Gambino family. He is also the man who shot Liberty Valence.

The thing is that none of them were French! One was Canadian, one was Haitian, one was from Algeria, and one was from Morocco. I asked them if there was a difference in the French that each spoke and they said that there sure was. I guess it's the same as the different Spanish accents from different Spanish speaking countries.
