International Master (1982). Have battled all the greats (Spassky, Dzindzihashvili, J Polgar, Hammer, Dlugy, Benjamin, Christiansen, Rohde, etc.) for decades. My favorite players are the clever Ljubomir Ljubojevic and his eccentric compatriot, Albin Planinc and these days Danill Dubov seems to have taken up the Ljubojevic creativity mantle.
