USSR Championship 1985
Compiled by suenteus po 147
--*--

The 52nd Soviet Chess Championship was a category XI event held in the city of Riga from January to February, 1985. Twenty of the Soviet Union's best grandmasters and masters participated in the round robin tournament. Thirteen seats went to the top finishers of the two semi-final league championships held at the end of 1984. The thirteen qualifiers were (with ELO at the time of the championship): Viktor Gavrikov (2550), Viktor Kupreichik (2470), Lev Psakhis (2555), Mikhail Gurevich (2435), Alexander Chernin (2495), and Bukhuti Gurgenidze (2445) from Sverdlovsk; and Georgy Agzamov (2590), Sergey Smagin (2405), Smbat Lputian (2530), Arshak Petrosian (2510), Boris Gulko (2475), Yuri Razuvaev (2520), and Evgeni Sveshnikov (2530) from Tashkent. The remaining seven invitations went out to Vladimir Tukmakov (2570), Andrei Sokolov (2550), Efim Geller (2540), Vereslav Eingorn (2525), Konstantin Lerner (2520), Adrian Mikhalchishin (2505), and Yuri Balashov (2495). Once again with the absence of Karpov and Kasparov due to the world championship, a more egalitarian lineup of Soviet chess mastery was on display this year. Despite the presence of the highest rated Tukmakov, as well as former Soviet champions Sokolov, Psakhis, and Gulko, three relative new comers to the Soviet elite tied for first after the long championship. Chernin, Gavrikov, and Gurevich each finished with +3 at the final. Rather than award each of the three, a tiebreak was devised to be held among the three finishers at Vilnius in December of 1985. All three participated, and while all six games were hard fought, every one was eventually concluded as a draw. A second tiebreak was suggested but outside pressure from news sources ultimately forced the Soviet organizers to award all three as champion. The final standings and crosstable are as follows:

01 Gavrikov 11/19 * ½ ½ 1 ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 1 ½ ½ ½ ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 0 ½
