| Jan-13-25 | | areknames: I remember this tournament well and also the buzz it created, not only in our limited chess world but also in the mainstream media. One of the reasons was that it was Ulf Andersson's first tournament in Sweden since 1971. As I've always loved Polu I was happy that he won, especially considering his shaky start. |
|
| Jan-13-25 | | Cassandro: <areknames> I like Polugaevsky too. I have two excellent books by him on the Sicilian defense where he was arguably the world's leading expert back in the day. BTW in his CG-bio it says "Russia". That is wrong. He was in fact Belarusian. Not the same thing (although both Russia and Belarus were both Soviet Union when Polugaevsky was born, they're two different countries now). |
|
| Jan-13-25 | | Olavi: <Cassandro> Do you have knowledge about his ethnicity? After 1991 he continued under the Russian flag. |

I'll never forget Buenos Aires (Clarin) (1979) and Buenos Aires (Clarin) (1980), which made Larsen my hero. |

Infact I played my very last tournament with classical time controls a mere 2 years later in 1990. 35 years ago, where did all the time go? This thing we call life tends to get in the way of chess. |

My top guy would have to be Korchnoi, when he was destroyed in Merano in 1981 I was pretty devastated. |
