Semyon Furman. More Than Just a Trainer.
Afternoon everyone! A few days ago my friend @kamalakanta posted a wonderful article. If you havent seen it, go take a look now. It is here. There the name of Furman came up. It struck me that many players will know the name, and perhaps a little of his reputation.…
"A lot of the difference between an IM and GM is a seriousness to the game. The GM is willing to go through all this. He's willing to put up with anything. This shows his dedication...."

Botvinnik vs R.Byrne Monte Carlo 1968.
Even at his late 50s Botvinnik was still in a good shape, he finished second behind Larsen with 9/13, Byrne 5th and was one of the few players in the tournament, who finished undefeated.
