β–ͺ️ LudΔ›k Pachman
β–ͺ️ Czechoslovak-German chess grandmaster

πŸ”° LudΔ›k Pachman was a Czechoslovak-German chess grandmaster, chess writer, and political activist. In 1972, after being imprisoned and tortured almost to death by the Communist regime in Czechoslovakia, he was allowed to emigrate to West Germany.

πŸ”˜ Country: Czechoslovakia
πŸ”Ί West Germany
πŸ”˜ Born: May 11, 1924
πŸ”Ί BΔ›lΓ‘ pod BezdΔ›zem (now Czech Republic)
πŸ”˜ Died: March 6, 2003
πŸ”Ί Passau, Germany
πŸ”˜ Title: Grandmaster
πŸ”˜ Peak rating: 2520 (January 1976)

πŸ”° LudΔ›k 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 won three Zonal tournaments and competed in six Interzonals, but never became a Candidate.
In 1959 he ended up in Mar del Plata with Miguel Najdorf in first place. He also played in the Chess Olympiad several times .

πŸ”° 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.

♦️ A memorable game by Pachman which has won Fischer in a informative game!! In this game Bobby Fischer's kingside attack did't resulted him.
