🔹 Richard Réti
🔹 Chess composer
🔹 Austro-Hungarianchess grandmaster
🔰 Richard Selig Réti was an Austro-Hungarian, later Czechoslovak chess grandmaster, chess author, and composer of endgame studies. He was one of the principal proponents of hypermodernism in chess.
Full name: Richard Selig Réti
Country: Austria-Hungary, Czechoslovakia
Born: 28 May 1889
Bösing, Austria-Hungary
(now Pezinok, Slovakia)
Died: 6 June 1929 (aged 40)
Prague, Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic)
🔰 Richard Reti was one of the top players in the world during the 1910s and 1920s, he began his career as a combinative classical player, favoring openings such as the King's Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.f4). After the end of the First World War, however, his playing style changed, and he became one of the principal proponents of hypermodernism, along with Aron Nimzowitsch and others. With the exception of Nimzowitsch's book My System, he is considered to be the movement's foremost literary contributor. He had his greatest early successes in the period 1918 through 1921, in tournaments in Kaschau (Košice; 1918), Rotterdam (1919), Amsterdam (1920), Vienna (1920), and Gothenburg (1921).
🔰In 1925 Réti set a world record for blindfold chess with 29 games played simultaneously. He won 21, drew 6, and lost 2.
🔰Réti was also a notable composer of endgame studies.
