Here's my top 10 of my favorite players:

1-Tal (Deep vision, amazing attacker and great complex games)

2-Morphy(Opening genius and ultimate chess mind)

3-Nezhmetdinov (Nice attacking combinations; he's the Morphy of the 20th century. His style is insane, but there's not enought games of him!)

4-Fischer (A right middle of tactics/positions with an incredible vision. That's how chess should be played)

5-Bronstein (He's always in some weird positions and got many amazing ideas. Nice sense of attack. I love the way he moves his pieces)

6-Velimirovic (Very deep sac a la Tal and I really like his openings)

7-Marshall (Everything for attack and initiative! Great tactician and not afraid to take some risks)

8-Euwe (What a style! Majestuous! Impressive tactics and great attacker. Pretty rational mind)

9-Nakamura (Probably the coolest chess player on this present era. Not scared to enter in some dangerous positions)

10-Kasparov (Very versatile, precise and agressive. Good use of tactics)

Special mentions to:

Polgar (So much agressive and some incredible moves)

Mamedyarov (Great tactician in this present era)

Emery Tate (Nice attacker and impressive tactician)

Nunn (Some amazing games)

Stein (Fine player)

Keres (A well balanced attack and defense. Many nice attacking ideas)

Alekhine (Strange style and some nice tactics)

Diemer (For the BDG!!)

Oll (Awesome games!)

DrChopper: Forget that, white still have a way to fight against it. ...46.Bxe6 Kd5 47.Bg3! Kc5 48.Bf2+ Kc6 49.a5 Kb5 40.Kf4 and the position is lost like in the real game.

DrChopper: Why not 44.Ke6?

DrChopper: For right now, Carlsen, by his statistics, show that not only he is fine against the best but that he can dominate players with less than 2780 elo. Versus the best (Anand, Kramnik, Aronian), I think the win can go either way, because it only need a small error at this level to ...

DrChopper: Why Naka didn't try Kh1? It look playable.

DrChopper: Dear Santa, and everybody here, I wish you all a merry Christmas!
 
   Dec-17-12 K Burger vs Zweiburg, 1964 (replies)
 
DrChopper: I think by doing Rb5, black gain a tempo for his combination. White must not give the chance for the rook to go on the g or h file, so he must waste some development to block it. By taking the rook, the queen must move again to be able to protect the g or h file, so he can't ...
 
   Dec-12-12 Emanuel Lasker (replies)
 
DrChopper: Here some quote on him from other players, the truth is probably behind all of this: "Lasker was my teacher, and without him I could not have become whom I became. The idea of chess art is unthinkable without Emanuel Lasker." - Alexander Alekhine "All my life I have studied deeply

DrChopper: What about 33.Na4, followed by Bc5? Black can check the king a lot, but I don't think that it's much a problem.
 
   Dec-08-12 London Chess Classic (2012) (replies)
 
DrChopper: What about 33.Na4, preparing Bc5?
