From the US Junior Championships in 1955. The late Robert Fischer, then 12, is playing
White. Viktors Pupols (born 1935) still plays at the Tacoma Chess Club. He won the
Washington State Open in 1961, 1964(*) , 1974, 1978 (tied) and 1989 .
Fischer's 7th move protects the g pawn and takes advantage of Black's disinclination to play
Be6. Nevertheless, trouble is looming for White as he will struggle to get developed and keep
his white-squared bishop relevant.
