Mikhail Tal, in 1959, beat Bobby Fischer 4 times in chess matches. Arguably one of the most successful players against Fischer. Is anyone else a chess fan here?
At one time I ran a chess club with some friends and often find similarities in chess and music. I find the cretivity in the game to be very in the moment like music.
A number of years ago the World Chess Championship was held in Salt Lake City. It was a fascinating event to watch.
The best ranked player I ever beat was 2035. It was great to win in an environment where there was not a soul that though I could win. |
