A Love Story: Lev Polugaevsky's "Grandmaster Preparation"

8/30/2025 – Thirty years ago, on August 30, 1995, Soviet Grandmaster Lev Polugaevsky died in Paris from cancer. To commemorate the renowned theoretician, who for many years was among the world’s leading players, Johannes Fischer takes a look at his book "Grandmaster Preparation", in which Polugaevsky recounts his decades-long passion for the line that bears his name: the Polugaevsky Variation of the Najdorf. | Photo: Anefo / Croes, R.C.
