πΉ moscow 1969
πΉ USSR
πΉ September 5 - October 12
πΉ CHAMPION: Tigran Petrosian|14/22 (+6 -0 =16) |
π° The 37th Soviet Chess Championship was held in the capital city of Moscow from September 6th to October 12th, 1969. Twenty-three of the Soviet Union's best grandmasters and master competed in the round robin tournament.
A number of players qualified from the four Soviet semi-final championships held earlier in the year, and the rest of the field was filled out by invitations sent to the very best of Soviet mastery.
Among those invited was Tigran Petrosian, who had lost his match for the world championship to Boris Spassky just a few months earlier. Petrosian remarked it was a great relief to have been defeated and actually later remarked that his years as world champion were some of the worst and most difficult of his life.
As it turned out, being relieved of the world championship made Petrosian more dangerous as a player, as seen here in the largest non-Swiss style Soviet Championship ever held. He finished tied for first with Lev Polugaevsky, each with 14/22. A playoff match of six games was scheduled and held from February 20th to the 28th, 1970 in order to determine a sole victor for the zonal standings, and Petrosian defeated Polugaevsky by two points having only played five of the six games. Though Petrosian would never again challenge a match for the world championship, his win here was the third of an eventual four Soviet crowns he would earn over his long and successful career as one of the best chess players in the world.
