Bobby Fischer and Viktor Kortchnoi, 2 Chess greats and 2 people who went through significant personal hardship, and managed to carve out an extra ordinary life for themselves ! I feel so inspired by both of them and wanted to have a look at their encounters with each other and share them with you.
Fun fact : This was the only game won by white in all of their 10 encounters !
Just a Heads up : Serious Chess analysis. Its a recorded video, not live stream.
