I haven't got a favourite really to be honest.

You didn't explain your reasons for picking Paul Morphy?

He dominated his era like no other. Every one should play through his games-if not all at least his more famous ones. You'll be entertained if nothing else. Definitely a candidate for all-time best player. Hope this response suffices.

I like Lev Aronian. He can invent a win out of nothing. He isn't affraid to take chances. Tal is one of my favs too. Attack, attack and attack some more. OHHHH you thought I was finished, here is another attack. LOL.

I must agree that Tal was a great player, It's a shame that such a champion was taken so
early in life, I think i'm right that he chain smoked himself to death. In the sixties Tal played
Botvinnik for the World Championship, Botvinnik won, A remarkable feat, so my player that
I most admire is Botvinnik.
