"Le había ganado una partida de ajedrez a alguien que ella recordaba como Torremolinos pero que en realidad se llamaba Capablanca". Gabriel García Márquez La rivalidad entre Alekhine y Capablanca fue algo único en la historia del deporte. Ningún libro la cuenta como éste:

Just stepping off the 3.f4 Trompovsky topic for one second 😉 I just read that a book has been published (in Spanish) about the great Spanish prodigy and GM Arturo Pomar… Any plans for anyone to bring out an English edition? @ilan_ruby tagged for no reason 😉😊

The unprecedented combined missile and drone attacks by Russia against Ukrainian energy infrastructure and civilian targets have no analogies in the history of human warfare. 12000+missiles45000+drones on the1365 day of a FSW is a crime against humanity,a war crime,and genocide

Not at all. Your government uses sport for propaganda and your country has bombed Ukrainian Chess clubs and killed Ukrainian Chess players.


Repost di Elk and Ruby Publishing House 🎗️

No, do not try and normalize what your country 🇷🇺 Russia is doing. It fights a genocidal war costing 100 of lives. And it uses chess a propaganda tool as well as for nationalization in illegally occupied territories.

Ill give you 2 hints: A country with no chess traditions. A country who has historic ties to Russia 🇷🇺 and is accused of helping to circumvent sanctions.

😉 Guess where the FIDE Candidates Tournament 2026 will take place! And the correct answer is… at the end of the video. #FIDECandidates
