🔹 Emanuel Lasker
🔹 German Chess Master
♦️ 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: 1894–1921
♦️ Lasker's contemporaries used to say that he used a "psychological" approach to the game, and even that Lasker 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.
♦️ Lasker made contributions to the development of other games. He was a first-class contract bridge player and wrote about bridge and other games, including Go and his own invention, Lasca. His books about games presented a problem that is still considered notable in the mathematical analysis of card games.

Carlsen wins Gashimov Memorial with 6/9 (3 wins, 6 draws, no losses). Rd 10 at the US Championship, Shankland beat Onischuk, Caruana beat Zherebukh, Xiong beat Lenderman, Nakamura beat Akobian. Shankland leads 7.5 out of 10. Caruana has 7/10. Wang has 8/10 in US women's ch.
Hikaru is hunting Akobian's king. Will he be able to get his first victory of the tournament, and deliver Akobian's 4th loss? #USChessChamps
Nazi Paikidze comes back and wins, pulling her within half a point of Annie Wang and completely opening up the Women's Championship!! #USChessChamps
