- Jeff Sarwer was rated in the 1900's when he was 10, but his father
- prevented him from playing in tournaments. I played him when he was
- 12 in a simul; he toyed with me, was easily winning, and overlooked
- a one-mover. I think he would certainly have made expert if he'd been
- given the chance.
