Indeed, it was th ~ first bl ood· letting of the tournament. The first round pairings were forced and so were the results. The French, the Yugoslavs, the Soviets, all played "friendly" draws. Mutual respect, fear of losing, a desire not to hurt the other man's feelings sums up an approach to the game to which }'ischer certainly does not sub· scribe. Both sides began quiet build-ups. But Lombardy, undoubtedly due to the lack of serious international competition, consumed too much time. The critical last hour saw him commit severai faulh which, though minor, resulted in the dissipation of a clear positional advan· t1ge. Adjournment came with Lombardy sealing his move. Lombardy.Fischer next but Fischer soon revealed himself that Friday morning. Imagine Bobby on to be the master chef in this variation the Black side of a Dragon Sicilian! d the King's Indian.

The collection featured gorgeous sets from many of the locations where he traveled while performing as a musician. This beautiful set from the Piatigorskys’ collection features cloisonné decoration.

  • Dvoretsky Lessons 5
    The Instructor Averbakh I AM IN THE PROCESS of writing an instructional endgame book. In the course of my work on this book, besides the rather extensive materials I had already accumulated, I of course made use of works by other authors, including the multi-volumed endgame set by Yuri Averbakh. Upon testing this material I found that an amazing number of endgames, including some well-known ones which have migrated from book to book, have been poorly analyzed and incorrectly evaluated. The following example must set some sort of record. Yuri Averbakh, Chess Endings (Rook) Page 299, Position No. 734 (See The Diagram) Instructor Black to move First, I will give Averbakh’s commentaries. Mark Dvoretsky 1... Ra2! "The only move! 1...h5 is a mistake, because of 2. Kd6! (2. Re8 Ra6+! 3. Kxf5 Rxa7 4. Kg5 Ra5+ 5. Kf4 Ra2 is only a draw) 2... Kh7 3. Ke7 Kg7 4. Ke6 Ra2 5. Kxf5 Rxf2+ (5...Ra5+ 6. Kf4 Kh7 7. Rf8! Rxa7 8. Kg5 Ra5+ 9. Rf5 and wins) 6. Kg5 Ra2 7. Kxh5 Ra4 8. Re8 Rxa7 9. Kxg4, and White wins." 2. Kxf5 Rxf2+ 3. Kxg4 Ra2 Draw Before reading what follows, I propose that the reader perform the following exercise (in the style of the outstanding John Nunn’s Chess Puzzle Book): How many of the moves that Averbakh gives as best - or at least normal - are really mistakes that change the outcome of the game? And now, let us begin our analysis. After 1...Ra2, White wins: instead of 2. Kxf5? [1 mistake], he plays 2.
