OK! - Thanks for explaining your views. They are well thought out, backed by various statistics, and lucid. I volunteer to throw no more wood into the fire:) (It takes too much work, looking up stuff, & so forth). Well, just one little thing. I find it fancinating that your two favoright world champions are Capablanca & Tal. I can't think of 2 more contrasting playing styles. Is that the reason that you like them the best? I would expect most chess player's would like one type of player or another, such as Alekhine & Tal or Capablanca & Karpov for instance. Now me, I've always liked Tal for historic study & Michael Rohde (my freind since 1983), for contemporary study - Both more tactical types in my opinion, although I think Mike in his 'old age' is becomming much too subtle! But what do I a mere USCF Life master and perpetual expert know anyway, to make such a stylistic call... regards, mrslug - the inkompetent chess software addict!
