Chess is a matter of delicate judgement, knowing when to punch and how to duck.
If you have seen one Alekhine game you've seen them all.
That's what Chess is all about. One day you give your opponent a lesson, the next day he gives you one
I usually never stay at the board after a game. Especially against Spassky. I made a dumb suggestion and he refuted it instantly! I know I'm going to have to play him some day and it was really stupid to look like such a jerk in front of him.
People have been playing against me below their strength for fifteen years.
I object to being called a chess genius because I consider myself to be an all around genius who just happens to play chess, which is rather different. A piece of garbage like Kasparov might be called a chess genius, but he's like an idiot savant. Outside of chess he knows nothing.
