we need intensity in the search for excellence, the search for truth on the board

forget the pretty boys, the only one i'll consider is magnus - he's got the jaw, as some other bunny alluded to earlier in this thread ...

the OP forgot about Capablanca. he was offered movie contracts. the ladies loved him.

 

This comment made me think of Humphrey Bogart because Capablanca somewhat resembles him... and then I find out Bogart was an excellent chess player... (2100) according to :

And Humphrey's biggest movie was Casablanca!  I feel like I'm in the twilight zone

Depends what kind of guys you are in to. Kinda surprised at the Fischer and Kasparov combo though.

Hm. Funny stuff, i got into chess because of how many good-looking players i found. I think i could make a list of my personal favourites (although some of them might be a bit weird)

Bobby Fischer

 

Anatoly Karpov and Garry Kasparov were quite handsome when they were younger.( I prefer Karpov, but that may be personal tastes.)

And Jan Timman

Now, moving on to more recent players...

 

Alexander Grischuk

Hans Niemann is pretty handsome when he looks like he showered

And Arseniy Nesterov

 

That's my personal list. Not in any specific order happy.png
