He destroyed the world's best GM's in classical and blitz and I am sure in rapid too he was invincible in that era. No one from Karpov to Magnus has matched Fischer's domination, 20 games won in a row in classical, winning matches 6-0, easily winning blitz tournament, etc.MayanKingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13118012.post-14758732212935713982014-05-29T10:18:58.393-05:002014-05-29T10:18:58.393-05:00@Narayan Snowden is more accurate as a source of i...@Narayan Snowden is more accurate as a source of information rather than wikipedia where there are countless unverified info.

Please do inflict heavy beatings to Nakamura whenever you play against him lol On a side note, I hope Wesley So will be invited to play either in the 2014 Grand Slam Masters Final (Bilbao tourney) in September or the Pearl Spring Tournament in China, both are super strong tournaments. Hope the organizers of those two events will invite Wesley to play.
