You in the old Chess game I see?
It's the hardest game in the world, that is.
The old Chess game, yeah.
Chess Grandmastering I done.
30 years I done it, Man and boy.
It is hard isn't it, the old mental strain, thinking all those moves ahead, yeah, I used to think games ahead.
Got to me in the end, I became mentally ill, That's not what done for me though, I sustained a terrible back injury in 1972 in Reykjavík when I tried to nut Spassky!
I carried on for sometime with the madness and the back.
A very good friend of mine took me to one side and said "Archie, Chess is a young mans game, get out of it son,
Do you know who that was?
Alexander Higgins
