Torre helps Fischer’s daughter in claim to dad’s estate

Torre and Young will be traveling with her mother Marilyn and lawyer Sammy Estimo in a bid to get her claim to Fisher’s estate consisting of 140 million Icelandic kronur (£ 1.07 million) and gold deposited at the Landsbanki Islands.
Fischer, a chess legend who died January 17 of last year, is married to Japanese Miyoko Watai, whom the Icelandic Supreme Court adjudged as Fischer’s lawful wife.
But Estimo countered that based on Icelandic law, the lawful wife can only get one third of the estate while the remaining two-thirds of the estate goes to the surviving child, in this case Jinky.
The group’s next stop after Iceland will be London where the filming on the life of whom many considered as the world’s greatest woodpusher is in full swing.
Fischer’s legend grew tremendously when he defeated Boris Spassky during the Cold War era. The face-off, considered by many as the Chess Match of the Century, was held in 1972 in Reykjavik.

Perhaps they can split 50-50?
It’s Sammy Estimo’s big pay day!
Of course Eugene too? Campo missed out? Hard to believe.
Any resemblance to Fischer of the girl?
What if the court asks for DNA confirmation?
Don they have to dig up… never mind.
“Don they have to dig up… never mind.”
No, they can get DNA from the newspaper Bobby spit in. Some of his best DNA is in that spit-wad…
Since Sammy Estimo is the attorney on record, he looks to make a substantial amount from a hefty percentage of whatever Jinky gets from the estate. And believe me, he is going to gouge that girl for all that she’s worth.
Eugene and Campo don’t have any legal right to any share of the money.
She will have to play two games of chess to prove she has the genes of her father.
