πΈ Wilhelm Steinitz
πΈ American-Austrian chess Master
πΈ First Undisputed World Chess Champion
π° Wilhelm Steinitz was an Austrian and later American chess master, and the first undisputed World Chess Champion, from 1886 to 1894. He was also a highly influential writer and chess theoretician.
π Country: Kingdom of Bohemia (Austrian Empire)
United States
π Born: May 17, 1836
Prague, Kingdom of Bohemia
π Died: August 12, 1900 (aged 64)
π New York City, New York, United States
π World Champion: 1886β1894 (undisputed; with earlier dates debated)
π° Steinitz was born on May 17, 1836, in the Jewish ghetto of Prague. The youngest of a tailor's thirteen sons to survive, he learned to play chess at age 12. He began playing serious chess in his twenties, after leaving Prague in 1857 to study mathematics in Vienna, at the Vienna Polytechnic. Steinitz spent two years at the university.
π° Steinitz won every serious match he played from 1862 until 1892, sometimes by wide margins[unreliable source]
In the years following his victory over Anderssen, he beat Henry Bird in 1866 (seven wins, five losses, five draws). He comfortably beat Johannes Zukertort in 1872 (seven wins, four draws, one loss; Zukertort had proved himself one of the elite by beating Anderssen by a large margin in 1871).
π° Steinitz visited the US, mainly the Philadelphia area, from December 1882 to May 1883. He was given an enthusiastic reception. Steinitz played several exhibitions, many casual games, and a match for stakes of Β£50 with a wealthy amateur. He also won three more serious matches with two New World professionals, Alexander Sellman (Steinitz won both) and the Cuban champion Celso Golmayo ZΓΊpide. The match with Golmayo was abandoned when Steinitz was leading (eight wins, one draw, one loss). His hosts even arranged a visit to New Orleans, where Paul Morphy lived.
β¦οΈ A memorable game by Steinitz which has won Hrnry Bird in 18 moves against Bird opening!!π
