▪️Francois-Andre Danican Philidor
▪️ French Chess Master

🔰 François-André Danican Philidor, often referred to as André Danican Philidor during his lifetime, was a French composer and chess player. He contributed to the early development of the opéra comique.

🔘 Full name: François-André Danican Philidor
🔘Country: France
🔘Born: September 7, 1726
▫️Dreux, France
🔘Died: August 31, 1795 (aged 68)
▫️London, England

🔰Philidor started playing regularly around 1740 at the chess Mecca of France, the Café de la Régence. It was also there that he famously played with a friend from 'New England', Benjamin Franklin. The best player in France at the time, Legall de Kermeur, taught him. At first, Legall could give Philidor rook odds, a handicap in which the stronger player starts without one of his rooks, but in only three years, Philidor equaled and then surpassed him.

🔰Philidor visited England in 1747 and decisively beat the Syrian Phillip Stamma in a match +8−1=1, although Philidor let Stamma have the first move in every game and scored all draws as wins for Stamma.
