Tal & Petrosian watching Spassky at the USSR championship 1959

Three future World Chess Champions playing in the 25th USSR Championship in 1959:  Standing on the left is Mikhail Tal (1960-61), on the right is Tigran Petrosian (1963-69), and seated is Boris Spassky (1969-1972).

Eutychus’ favorite chess sites are:

ChessWorld - To play a game with Eutychus, just look him up. You can get a basic membership for free.

Chess Cafe - A great site with a steady flow of articles, book reviews and an extensive archive.

The Week in Chess - Every week this site has free downloads of the lastest top-level chess games, as well as the latest chess news.

Jeremy Silman - International Master Jeremy Silman’s site has plenty of chess analysis and book reviews.  I’m not into the New Age section of his site, but, like Eutychus, his site reflects his interests.
