▪️ Lajos Portisch
▪️ Hungarian chess grandmaster
♦️Lajos Portisch is a Hungarian chess Grandmaster, whose positional style earned him the nickname, the "Hungarian Botvinnik".
🔸Full name: Lajos Portisch
🔸Country: Hungary
🔸Born: 4 April 1937 (age 81) Zalaegerszeg, Hungary
🔸Title: Grandmaster (1961)
🔸FIDE rating: 2467 (January 2018)
🔸Peak rating: 2655 (January 1980)
♦️ Portisch won the Hungarian Championship for the first time in 1958, and in 1961 he became a grandmaster. In 1960, he qualified from the Madrid Zonal for the Stockholm Interzonal (1962), where he came equal 9th. In 1963, he won the Halle Zonal ahead of Borislav Ivkov and Bent Larsen and advanced to the Amsterdam Interzonal (1964) where he came 8th. Over the course of his career he qualified for the Candidates eight times and played for his country in nineteen consecutive Olympiads (1956-1996). He had another fine tournament finish with an equal 2nd with Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian after Anatoly Karpov at Milan (1975). At the Biel Interzonal (1976), he qualified again with an equal 2nd after Bent Larsen, and went on to win the Portisch - Larsen Candidates Quarterfinal (1977) match, but then lost the Spassky - Portisch Candidates Semifinal (1977) match. He led the Hungarian team to an unprecedented 1st place finish ahead of the Soviets at the Buenos Aires Olympiad 1978.
He still lives in Hungary, and is still active in local tournaments.

A multi-purpose move:
1- To prevent the development of the black king's bishop.
2- With the idea of Qg3, offering to exchange queens.
3- After the exchange on g3, the h-file will be opened for white. If black refuses to trade, he will lose a tempo. it means he shifts his queen to a less useful square.
