Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-25-14  diagonal: This is the man who takes the initiative to bring together two of the all time greatest chess living legends:

A Remake - Match between the old 'Leningrad boys' Viktor Korchnoi (aged 83) and Boris Spassky (aged 77), both suffered severe health problems, we know. It will be great to see them doing again, what they love most!

<Schach-Event der Extraklasse in Leipzig 2014>, Veranstaltung auf Initiative von Dr. Gerhard Köhler, ORWO Net AG, Wolfen, Deutscher Schachbund DSB, Emanuel-Lasker-Gesellschaft und der Universität Leipzig:

If health allows, then Viktor Lvovich and Boris Vasilievich will play four games, from (this) Friday, 28th march 2014 on, with live coverage.

For Viktor Korchnoi it is not a come-back, it is a continuation and the first public games after he suffered a stroke in september 2012.

The official announcements:

<http://www.pressetext.com/news/2014...>

<http://www.schachgemeinschaft-leipz...>

<http://www.schachbund.de/news/schac...>

In summer 2012, just two months before suffering a stroke, great Viktor Korchnoi visited the City of Leipzig, invited by the University and Dr. Gerhard Köhler, a student chess player in the 1970s, now an amateur player and entrepreneur as chairman of a mid-cap company in fotofinishing:

Viktor Korchnoi then visited with his wife Petra the new Paulinum and gave a simultan exhibition at the University of Leipzig:

<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwHw...>

For Viktor Korchnoi, the city of Leipzig creates also reminiscences of his first Chess Olympiads for the USSR in 1960 on board 4, whith Tal, Botvinnik, Keres, Korchnoi and Smyslov, Petrosian as reserve - what an incredible line-up! Even a formation of the then not nominated Bronstein, Spassky, Geller, Stein, Polugaevsky, Taimanov would be most certainly better that time than every other nation on this planet.

A survey of Leipzig 1960 with pictures of young Bobby Fischer, the wizard Tal, Korchnoi (once called the Tal in-reverse), elder statesman Max Euwe, sixteen years young Vlastimil Hort (doesn't he looks a bit like Carlsen?) or Manuel Aaron, the first indian International Master who did much for the popularization of the game in India:

The chess community keeps fingers crossed for Boris Vasilievich and Viktor Lvovich for their next chess summit, I suppose, it couldn't be a better time and feeling as playing simultaneously during the present Candidates.

May-26-16  diagonal: Congratulations! Dr. Gerhard Köhler is <Amateur World Chess Champion 2016>, winning at Kos the 5th ACO World Chess Championship in the highest category A (>2201 <2400 ELO), https://www.facebook.com/amateurche... (photo with his wife) http://de.chessbase.com/post/aco-am... (ChessBase Report from the event in german language)
