    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins.

With contributions by Viktor Kortchnoi, Jose Vilela, Bogdan Lalic, and many others. Sosonko & Corner Editor Genna Sosonko was leafing through his old notebooks when he came across a venomous novelty he had used in a blitz game against John van der Wiel back in 1987. This provided enough ammunition for an article on the piece sacrifice Nc3-d5 often seen in the English Opening and of course the Sicilian. The final example is by Donner, who once more had his facts wrong. Book Review The ultimate "macho" opening repertoire consists of two openings: the Sicilian Najdorf against 1.e4 and the King & s Indian against everything else. In his previous column the Najdorf came under scrutiny, so it & amp; s somehow appropriate that it & amp; s now the turn of the King & s Indian to receive special attention.

    NIC Forum YB / 75: Readers from all over the world join in discussions of previous surveys. Both (grand) masters and club players shed their light on new discovery. With contributions by Ruslan Scherbakov and an afterthought by Viktor Kortchnoi, who solves an intriguing riddle around a 1963 game against Matanovic! Sosonko & Corner YB / 75: In this extended column, Genna Sosonko provides us with a bird's eye view of the enormous impact that Garry Kasparov has had on opening theory. From his younger years, through his famous World Championship matches with Karpov, right to his last novelties in Linares 2005. Kasparov's ringtone theory was revolutionary. He used his computer skills. The man from Baku could beat all his rivals with his home preparation, which was an extraordinary broad mixture of modern, ancient and half-forgotten opening lines. Kasparov has stopped playing chess, but his work was able to keep top grandmasters, who can not sit still for one week as it is, busy for years. And like many of his colleagues, Sosonko does not rule out a comeback ... Book Review YB / 75: Supply and demand has motivated a proficient writer Stefan Kindermann to write his 'The Spanish Exchange Variation' in English instead of his mother tongue, as Glenn Flear explains. Admiring its clarity, Flesh regrets that this book is too thin! In Konstantin Sakaev and Semko Semkov's profound ', in the Semi-Slav: ANTI-MERAN, Flear has spotted some amazing insights. And he finds Gary Lane's 'Ideas Behind Modern Chess Openings: Black' more relevant than Lane's version for White. Who could better review 'Play the Sicilian Dragon' by Edward Dear Sergey Tiviakov?
