Micah
and Tov Fisher-Kirshner blitz it out for the first place trophy after tying
in the 1994 Young People“s Tournament. Under the old rules of the tournament
before 1994 Tov would have won on tie-breaks. Under the new rules a biltz
match would break any ties. Micah won. Many years later they still played
each other for that same trophy. :0)

Chess during tournaments entails much thought.
