🔘 Peak rating: 2520 (January 1976)

🔰 Luděk Pachman was a Czech - German journalist and chess player who also played for Czechoslovakia. In 1954 he was awarded the title of Grandmaster (GM) by FIDE . He has been chess champion of the Czech Republic seven times between 1946 and 1966 and won the West German Championship in 1978. .

🔰 Pachman's first chess championship came in 1940, when he became champion of the nearby village of Cista (population 900). The first break in his chess career came in 1943, when he was invited to an international tournament in Prague. World Champion Alekhine dominated the event, with Keres taking second place. Pachman finished ninth in the nineteen-player tournament. Alekhine paid him a compliment in an article in the Frankfurter Zeitung and from the fifth round on, invited him every evening to analyze games and opening variations. "I don't have to tell you how a beginner from a village chess club felt at that time", Pachman wrote.
