Subject: Re: Smartest players?

ouspensky: A history of the 84-85 match can be fibd on line at:
World Chess Championship: 1984 Karpov-Kasparov. The record of the draws is there- but there is no mention of Botvinnik. Perhaps this is apocryphal? The htoery that Karpov was on drugs is discussed, so who knows? There is also a book on this Championship by two authors Speelman and Tisdal, but I don't know the title.
