  • Chess As a Commodity?
    Debate Chess as a commodity? 10 Aug 2020 Four and a half months have gone by with hardly any significant classical chess. Elite players have started to behave like hustlers. One of the most hyped chess competitions ever was staged between beginners. Raj Tischbierek asks if it is an irreversible development or just a nightmare that will pass. A dream One of those hot, sweaty June nights catapults me back to the year 1970. I am in the Yugoslavian town of Herceg Novi reporting for my magazine from the strongest blitz tournament in chess history until then. Bobby Fischer dominates the competition at will. The fight for second place is more exciting, between the four Soviets Mikhail Tal, Viktor Korchnoi, Tigran Petrosian and David Bronstein. In the last round Tal has gained substantial ground: in an endgame of rook versus rook he flags Petrosian! The Yugoslav commentators discuss with him the subtleties of this tricky endgame, which, I learn, is being played by the young Anatoly Karpov with masterful precision. Tal thus got ahead of Korchnoi, who tried his utmost against the American veteran Samuel Reshevsky. He didn’t simply resign what seemed to me a hopeless endgame, but let his clock run down almost to the last seconds. In vain: unlike in some earlier rounds, Sammy did not fall off the table from exhaustion and Korchnoi had to accept a bitter defeat. Among the lapwings I spot FIDE-President Folke Rogard: “How do you like the tournament?” – “Great! The response is overwhelming! In the next room, a television set is showing a football match between Yugoslavia and Austria.

  • Bob Wade Interview.Vp
    THE BRITISH CHESS MAGAZINE, December 1999 © 1999 British Chess Magazine Ltd. 627 BOB WADE CHESS ORACLE by John Saunders OWARDS THE END of October, I motored over to Blackheath to pay a visit to Bob TWade.The purpose of the visit was two-fold: firstly, to return some bulletins which I had borrowed from Bob about a year earlier, and which I have transcribed onto ChessBase files (interested readers will find them at Britbase, the British gamescore archive on the internet - go to the BCM Online page, www.bcmchess.co.uk, and navigate from there). Bob’s chess li- brary is almost as celebrated as the man himself, and he has played a very significant part in getting Britbase off the ground. My second purpose was to interview him for the magazine.In preparing for this it dawned on me that the main difficulty in doing this was knowing when to stop.He has been involved in so many aspects of chess, over so great a period of time, that it is almost impossible to cover the requisite ground within the boundaries of a single interview. In the end I decided to concentrate on how he got started in the game, and how he came to move to the UK and become a chess professional; but in the end I occasionally succumbed to the temptation to discuss better-known events from his later career. How did you come to learn chess? My father, who was a farmer, taught me when I was eight years old, in about 1929.We lived in the country near Dunedin.
