No photograph of Kasparov illustrated better his intimidating rage, insatiable hunger, and utter domination than this jewel found in a regional archive. He's devouring Robert Hübner for lunch in the 6th round of the Tilburg tournament, October 7, 1981.

Spassky vs Petrosian Moscow 1969 WCC match.
Before this match Spassky already lost against Petrosian in 1966 in a really close fight 11.5/12.5.
But in 1969 Spassky got stronger
and beated Petrosian with 10.5/12.5 (+6 -4 =13).From
1968 to 1970 Spassky was at his prime.

@UnityChess

the way Tal reacts to Spassky vs Petrosian game is epic 😂

Happy 20th Birthday to Wei Yi (World #18)! He reached the 2700 club at the age of 15, the youngest ever for this record.🎂🎉🎁🎈

Jeffery Xiong is now the highest rated teenager in the world at 2684!

Of course Firouzja (2682), Sevian (2677), or Maghsoodloo (2665) could pass him in a heartbeat. First time in a long time it's been competitive.

White is OK!
