βͺοΈ Emanuel Lasker
βͺοΈ German Chess Grandmaster
β¦οΈ Emanuel Lasker was a German chess player, mathematician, and philosopher who was World Chess Champion for 27 years. In his prime, Lasker was one of the most dominant champions, and he is still generally regarded as one of the strongest players ever.
Full name: Emanuel Lasker
Country: Germany
Born: December 24, 1868 Berlinchen, Prussia (now Barlinek, Poland)
Died: January 11, 1941 (aged 72) New York City, United States
World Champion: 1894β1921
β¦οΈLasker's contemporaries used to say that he used a "psychological" approach to the game, and even that he sometimes deliberately played inferior moves to confuse opponents. Recent analysis, however, indicates that he was ahead of his time and used a more flexible approach than his contemporaries, which mystified many of them. Lasker knew contemporary analyses of openings well but disagreed with many of them. He published chess magazines and five chess books, but later players and commentators found it difficult to draw lessons from his methods.

Tunisian international master has hurried to launch his plan. He should have first played 11.c3 or 11.a3.

Ghaem Magham has very well exploited the white's dubious move.
