Just a fourm to post your dream tournaments were you make up tourney of 6-8 players and the participants being and new old alive or dead chessplayer. heres mine

Paul Morophy

Willhelm Stienitz

Bobby Fishcer

Garry Kasparov

Akiba Rubienstien

Jose Raul Capablanca

Magnus Carlson

Tigran Petrosian

No disrespect but Morphy and Stenitz are definitely outclassed by today's strong players.  Here is my list:

Capablanca (at his peak)

Alekhine (not the drunk Alekhine)

Botvinnik

Smyslov

Kasparov

Karpov

Fischer

Anand

Carlsen

Kasparov

Karpov

Fischer

Tal

Alekhine

Capablanca

Lasker

 not to me besides I said dream tournament not top 10 or anything like that so why would that matter.

It's not about being in the top 10. But putting Steinitz and Morphy against the others in the list is a total massacre. Lol. Steinitz and Morphy stand no chance and the tournament wouldn't be exciting. Of the old world champions I listed, I think Botvinnik has the greatest chance to compete against the modern champions.

Fischer

Kasparov

Karpov

Tal

Capablanca

Alekhine

Carlsen

Kramnik

 good point but saying morphy to is a little unreasonable even going over his games today with modern tech alot of GM's say there wasn't to much wrong with his play at all and he lived in a time where everything chess study wise was undeveloped and still primitave and he even gave up chess due to some saying it being no one to challenge him so you dont know how strong he really is.

Mikhail Tal

Juan Manuel Bellon Lopez

Zsuzsa Polgar

Alexander Alekhine

Helmut Pfleger

Mir Sultan Khan

i've always wanted to see a match between alekhine and fischer.  epicness would ensue.

Alekhine vs Tal at the height of their chess powers would surely produce an Immortal game !
