That's the question Angelo Sandrin asked me circa 1985, the point being that the chessboard equivalent of a street brawl was tailor-made for Giles's hypertactical style. Even so, he was never afraid to take big risks in order to win, so our games were incredibly fun!
Sometimes I gave Morris a scare; sometimes he rolled me off the board. The following game, the first time we played, was slightly atypical. Normally, he would kill me tactically; here, he neutralized my showy demonstration, then ground me down positionally from a slightly superior ending.
