About Tournament


In chess there often isn't just one right move. In one and the same position, Bobby Fischer might make one move while Garry Kasparov might play something else.

Former world championship contender David Bronstein told a story about sitting around with ten other grandmasters watching a hotly contested game between two of their colleagues. For fun, the group decided to see if they could guess the moves the players would make. Bronstein was stunned to see how many disagreements occurred. It made him realize that the search for the one right answer did not always work or maybe even matter. The point is that there could be multiple ways to approach an issue, and although these great chess minds often disagreed as to which method was best, that did not prevent them from winning their individual games.

– Maurice Ashley, Chess for Success
