        it was me. i’m sort of tal-esque, yet very petrosian-ish.

        however, sometimes i’m a blend of smyslov and alekhine. right in between those two, stylistically.

        but, wait, there’s times when i’m right between morphy and botvinnik.

        right now though, most of the time, i’m sort of blend the careful approach of kramnik with the ‘fire on board’ style of shirov.

        right in between
