You guys are too smart! GM Timur Gareyev is absolutely correct. Maybe I should have used IMBacon's clue. The first time I saw him he had blue/purple hair cut in a Mohawk style. I'll post another master in a few days. Hopefully it will be more of a challenge than my first try.

OK guys here is the next one...
- He defeated 4 world champions (Fischer, Tal, Petrosian & Smyslov).
- He did time in a soviet concentration camp after a failed attempt to defect to the west.
- The opening that bears his name (in most of the world) is named after a river in the east.
NAME THAT MASTER
Don’t I get credit? I sent a message to you about two weeks ago.

This is an informal (no prize) contest to test your knowledge about well known chess masters current and past. If I get a lot of interest in the topic, I'll keep it going for awhile. You are welcome to guess as often as you want, but please don't Google. So Guess The master....
