Chess: Soltis Continues Dominance Of Marshall Club Tourney by Al Horowitz
Andrew Soltis, one of America's most promising young players, has won the championship of New York's Marshall Chess Club for the fourth time in five years. Soltis posted a 10-1 score and Dr. Orest Popovych was second. […] Soltis's game against Dr. Paul Robey, a former club champion, shows the venerable Allgaier Gambit in modern dress. The line of defense Black plays here has been recommended by no less an authority than Bobby Fischer. A thorough analysis of the opening would fill a huge tome.
