He couldn't see them of course... cruel Irony!

TalFan777
For me tied for first with Kasparov is Bronstein.
IM pfren
Misha Tal was the most gifted player ever. Unfortunately his charisma extended well ahead of the chessboard to heavy drinking and chain smoking... but he created miracles whenever he was at good health (which was not so often).
Apart from a chess genius, he was also a great guy, with a terrific, wicked sense of humour. When he lost the rematch against Botvinnik, he phoned home and told his mother: "Mom, you should be proud of your son. He just became the youngest ex-world champion ever!".
Thnax pfren! and talfan777
I love Tal he is one of my all time favs.
John_Hopkins
Fischer
Azesm
Hm... It's a difficult one to answer. Creative fountain Alekhin, unhuman mathematically precised Capablanca, drunk wizard Tal, crystal clear Bobby Fisher, strategic anaconda Karpov... and maybe ancient Buddha-minded Anand?
