I did not know until Andy Soltis pointed it out that Akiva Rubinstein beat S Tarrasch 8-0 with 12 draws, over the years 1911 to 1924-ish.

Hello Chess Friends, It appears that the rec.games.chess.computer newsgroup has been abandoned. So, I will repost this here and see if anyone else is interested in the topic. If I am the only one that feels that this is significant, then I will let it die. :) One of the very strong GMs that plays on ICC goes by the handle of "Goldmund." He is actually Alexander Rustemov from Russia. He...

Or would you be happy just to be a GM even if it meant you were one of the weakest GM.s in the world.... Me , i think id be happy just being a no name GM.....Then again if you put that much of your life into being a GM then why not try harder to be one of the best ? Still for...
