May-28-23 Erich Eliskases
| |
| Synchsynch: @Andrijadj, in fact Korchnoi was a brilliant endgame player, as his games vs Karpov demonstrated. So Eliskases may have gone back to Germany, says Miss Scarlet, wow that is a revelation! And he was well thought if by his contemporary world champions, high praise indeed. |

May-28-23 Gideon Stahlberg
| |
| Synchsynch: I thought his most notable win in fact, was Bronstein vs Stahlberg 1950, Budapest Candidates. Because it's often quoted in openings manuals. Where Stahlberg used a supposedly inferior line of the French defence, and won, though Bronstein was clearly better according to Stockfish. |

Nov-27-22 Lasker vs Capablanca, 1935
| |
| Synchsynch: I thought, is he heading for a draw too?! Amazing that the position occurred three times, but not a draw! Remarkable. :)) Perhaps he was lighting another cigar, while working out what to do. |

Oct-08-22 Botvinnik vs Keres, 1948
| |
| Synchsynch: I understand that Bronstein, and others, have admitted Soviet fixes. I remember a long time ago, I played through a game of Botvinnik Vs Keres, forget which one now, and saw Keres go for an ending where he had 5 pawn islands. It looked a clear case to me that he had done this ... |
