▪️ Robert Hübner
▪️ German chess Grandmaster and Writer
♦️ Robert Hübner is a German chess Grandmaster, chess writer, and papyrologist. He was one of the world's leading players in the 1970s and early 1980s.
Full name: Robert Hübner
Country: Germany
Born: November 6, 1948 (age 69)
Cologne, West Germany[1]
Title: International Master (1969)
Grandmaster (1971)
FIDE rating: inactive (not rated)
Peak rating: 2640 (July 1981)
♦️ Hubner's International Master (IM) title was awarded in 1969 and his Grandmaster (GM) title in 1971. He reached third place in the FIDE world ranking list in 1980.
Hubner played in three Candidates Tournaments for the World Championship. Each ended in controversial circumstances:
🔸 In 1971, he forfeited a closely contested quarter final to Tigran Petrosian, complaining about the noise, when he was down 1 point.
🔸 In 1980-81, his best result, he reached the final before losing to Viktor Korchnoi. He forfeited the match after 10 games, again when he was down 1 point.
🔸 In 1983, he lost a quarter final to Vassily Smyslov in unique circumstances: with the match tied after the original 10 games plus 4 further games, the tie was resolved (in Smyslov's favour) by a spin of a roulette wheel.
♦️ A memorable game by Hubner👇🏼

Naturally, there are plenty of other options on this and the previous move, but this plan is always decent. The bishop will temporarily be misplaced on h5/g6, but it will usually come in to play via f7 after ...Nd7 and ...f6.

📕 How should White, to move, complete his development? Here White could develop normally with 15 0-0 but this does not lead to any particular advantage. The strongest way to develop an initiative is by bringing the king's rook into play via the 3rd rank. As Ke1-f1 will work as well as castling, White has no problems with the king. How should one find this plan? Well, very simple. White is slightly better placed and is reasonably active, while Black is passive. Therefore White should attempt to prove an advantage, and this is done by finding the most serious weakness in the enemy camp. In this case, it is the kingside. After...15.h4! White is trying to establish four pieces against two on the kingside. This is the most dangerous approach. 15...Nf8 16.Qg5! The key move. 16...Qxg5 17.hxg5 Rd7 18.f4 Rad8 19.Kd2 Rc7 20.b4+/-
