Jun-07-09    myschkin: . . . Markas (Marcos) Luckis (1905–1973) was a Lithuanian–Argentine chess master. In September 1939, when WW II was broke out, Luckis, along with many other participants of the 8th Chess Olympiad had decided to stay permanently in Argentina. Bio: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markas... Jul-31-09    ozmikey: He played a brilliant game against Stahlberg at Mar del Plata 1944, which is unfortunately not in the database here; I found it in Reuben Fine's book "Chess Marches On" (a collection of games played during WW2).
