Партии, биография, фото, статистика. Василий Васильевич Смыслов (р. 1921) стал в 36 лет седьмым в истории шахмат чемпионом мира (1957-58). Шесть предыдущих шахматных королей брали заветный рубеж с первой попытки. А те, кто не смог осилить действующего чемпиона, в дальнейшем, как правило, не проявляли своих амбиций, оставаясь в роли "великих неудачников". Вопреки сложившейся традиции, Смыслов первым вошел в одну реку дважды и сумел повторить звездный путь. Когда он, наконец, завоевал титул сильнейшего шахматиста планеты, создалось впечатление, что это тот самый "корабль", у которого нет уязвимых мест, напротив, все говорило о его "комфортабельности и благоустроенности". Увы, на каждый шахматный "титаник" находится рано или поздно свой шахматный "айсберг". Им стал для Смыслова тот, которого он еще недавно так блестяще победил, - Ботвинник. Уже через 12 месяцев Василий Смыслов стал экс-чемпионом мира. Но "калиф на год" оставался грозным шахматным бойцом еще долгие и долгие годы. Еще одним способом его самовыражения стала музыка. Красивый баритон, как и шахматный талант, унаследовал он от отца. Не случайно он повторял: "Чемпионами не становятся, а рождаются!". Внешне он не производит впечатление опасного бойца - типичный скромный интеллигент, с неторопливой походкой и загадочной улыбкой. Это для непосвященных, а вот для шахматного фантазера Д. Бронштейна образ Смыслова порой ассоциировался с поступью медведя, напролом бредущего по шахматным дебрям, и горе тому, кто нечаянно попадется на его дороге!

Doctor of chess and grandmaster of electrical engineering. The main advantages of Botvinnik - iron will, a scientific approach, a clear vision of the goal. Botvinnik accumulated the best features of the Soviet chess school. And at the same time, this school embodied many of the priorities it proclaimed. Botvinnik devoted thirty years of his life to the creation of an “artificial intelligence” - a chess program, not only a “master playing by virtue”, but also “thinking like him.” "Pioneer" was his pride, and his pain, and his "blue bird". Botvinnik's multivolume legacy is a classic of world chess, his life is an example of disinterested service to chess art.
