how do you spell Polugaevsky?

Avatar of GambitShift

I have been copying and pasting it.

Avatar of GambitShift

If you know the answer, I suggest waiting 10-20 minutes and then just adding a letter. That way more people can get a chance. That one was a good one.  Ok, next one is in my profile pic.

 

What movie had the same position in it? (If you can't make out the position, I can post it here).

is it a popular movie?

Avatar of GambitShift

No, it's probably one you will see on a chess movie list, but it's not like Searching for Bobby Fischer or Pawn Sacrifice. Not heavily publicized.
