no points, but this reminds me of being in Curacao in late 2006 at Spanish Water on a sailboat. There was a popular bar and I would take my chess set in and look for a game. This one fellow offered to play and crushed me in about ten moves. We played again - same. That weekend we played some more and he handily won every game - I said he should play in tournaments and he laughed and said he did! A Master. As long as I’d buy beers, he was pleased to sit there and beat me all day long!
