Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde El gran maestro de ajedrez Viktor Korchnoi aventaja hoy por 2,5 a 1,5 al antiguo campeón mundial Boris Spassky, tras cuatro de las ocho partidas que les enfrentan estos días en Rusia en un singular torneo llamado la Batalla de los Gigantes, según EFE. Korchnoi, suizo de origen ruso, y Spassky, ruso naturalizado francés, disputan su torneo en Elista, la capital de la república rusa de Kalmikia, cuyo presidente, Kirsán Iliyumzhínov, encabeza también la Federación Internacional de Ajedrez (FIDE). El subcampeón del mundo Korchnoi, de 78 años, ganó la primera partida a su rival, de 72, y empató las tres siguientes, informó la Federación de Ajedrez de Kalmikia, que ofrece el duelo a los aficionados en su página digital (http: chess-rk.ru). El torneo de Elista entre los dos septuagenarios mitos vivientes del ajedrez incluye ocho partidas con límite de tiempo, y reparte una bolsa discreta de solo 20.000 dólares, el 60 por ciento para el ganador o a medias entre los dos en caso de empate. Curiosamente, esa batalla de los dos gigantes -que tras concluir las partidas se detienen un largo rato en el escenario para analizar juntos sus jugadas e intercambiar observaciones- está dedicada al 400 aniversario de la entrada del pueblo kalmiko en el Imperio Ruso. Según el historial, durante sesenta años entre 1955 y 2005 los dos virtuosos del ajedrez se habían enfrentado personalmente en un total de 69 partidas, con un resultado de 39,5 por 29,5 puntos a favor de Korchnoi. http://www.juventudrebelde.cu/deportes/2009-12-21/trebejista-viktor-korchnoi-delante-de-antiguo-campeon- mundial-boris-spassky Juventud Rebelde | Diario de la juventud cubana Copyright © 2017 Juventud Rebelde.

Supertournaments Won by Viktor Korchnoi
Supertournaments won by Viktor Korchnoi Supertournament (as well as Supergrandmaster) is relatively new and dynamic term, invented by the chess community, there is no unequivocally, conclusively definition. It usually means a World Elite Chess Tournament – in status and strength (both!) – and is mostly but not necessarily modeling ➢ an international competition (meaning without national championships even if strong as in the USSR, Russia or U.S.) ➢ an invitational closed contest (all-play-all / round robin) (meaning without Open Festivals held in a swiss system, a highly questionable restriction) ➢ in classical chess otb (meaning no rapid, blitz games and/or (other) combined events; no correspondence chess) ➢ including or excluding official qualification stages for a World Chess Championship cycle (Zonal, Interzonal, Candidate’s tournament or match, Grand Prix; FIDE, GMA, PCA, etc.) ➢ furthermore it is debatable whether tournaments with four or less players (Quadrangulars or Triangulars) should be considered as a type of their own (a so-called Mini-Tournament) *all depends on how you count* More than 60 international invitation grandmaster tournament triumphs in classical chess (supertournaments in terms of modern standards are highlighted in yellow colour, less known tournaments do include a link for the final standings) Bucharest 1954 (winning at first tournament abroad, ahead of Nezhmetdinov, IM title by FIDE) Hastings 1955/56 (winning with F.

Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian 9Thclassical World Champ (1963-1969)
Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian 9thclassical world champ (1963-1969) Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian…aka Iron Tigran. Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian was born on 17 June 1929in Tbilisi, Georgia and died on 13 August 1984 in Moscow, Russia. He was world champ from 1963–1969 Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian was a Soviet Armenian Grandmaster, and World Chess Champion from 1963 to 1969. He was nicknamed "Iron Tigran" due to his almost impenetrable defensive playing style, which emphasized safety above all else. Petrosian is credited with popularizing chess in Armenia. As a young boy, Petrosian was an excellent student and enjoyed studying, as did his brother Hmayak and sister Vartoosh. He learned to play chess at the age of 8, though his illiterate father Vartan encouraged him to continue studying, as he thought chess was unlikely to bring his son any success as a career. Petrosian was orphaned during World War II and was forced to sweep streets to earn a living. It was about this time that his hearing began to deteriorate, a problem that afflicted him throughout his life. At age 12 he began training at the Tiflis Palace of Pioneers under the tutelage of Archil Ebralidze. By 1946, Petrosian had earned the title of Candidate Master. In that year alone, he drew against Grandmaster Paul Keres at the Georgian Chess Championship, then moved to Yerevan where he won the Armenian Chess Championship and the USSR Junior Chess Championship. Petrosian earned the title of Master during the 1947 USSR Chess Championship, though he failed to qualify for the finals. He set about to improve his game by studying Nimzowitsch's My System and by moving to Moscow to seek greater competition.

A Detailed Analysis of an Important Chess Game: Revisiting “Maroczy Versus Korchnoi”
A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF AN IMPORTANT CHESS GAME: REVISITING “MAROCZY VERSUS KORCHNOI” VERNON M NEPPE ABSTRACT The author performed a detailed computer simulation and his own analysis of the 1985-1993 chess game between two leading chess “grandmasters” (the allegedly discarnate Geza Maroczy vs. Victor Korchnoi). Overall, it appears that “Maroczy” played at Master or very disputably low rusty grandmaster level, and this was possibly equivalent to his standard of play while alive; the winner, Korchnoi played at the level of an accomplished grandmaster. Because of major stylistic differences, the computer could not have simulated the game, nor could many living chess players play at this high a level. Early outside validators (news media, analysis by an expert player) mitigate against fraudulent collaboration. In this instance, superpsi appears to be a less parsimonious hypothesis than survival as superpsi would require the active cogitation of a master chess player or players while alive, extended over a prolonged period of time with forty seven responses. Fraud would be extremely difficult to perpetrate and require multiple collaborations. This case involves possibly a unique combination of both a controlled analysis of a skill with data. In this case, chess at a very high level combines with the detailed confirmation of the correctness of very difficult to locate biographical information as reported by Eisenbeiss and Hassler (2006), This case may be one of the most remarkable cases supporting evidence for survival of an intelligent component of human existence after bodily death. BACKGROUND Rarely in the annals of survival research, does one encounter a case that is so special that intensive analysis is apposite.
