David Neil Lawrence "D N L" Levy (1945- )
Souvenir Book/Buch VII Torneo Interzonal Palma de Mallorca 1970
<p>unpaginated with tables facsimiles and photographs. Octavo 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" bound in original publisher's burgundy pebbled cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Limited to 600 copies of which this is 423.</p><p>The 1970 Interzonal was held in Palma de Mallorca from November 9-December 12 and was the last Interzonal held as a one-section round robin. With the tournament swelling to 24 players and further expansion on the way future changes were inevitable. The following players vied for six slots in the candidates matches to be held in 1971: William Addison Miroslav Filip Robert James Fischer Efim Geller Svetozar Gligoric Vlastimil Hort Robert Huebner Borislav Ivkov Eleazar Jimenez Zerquera Bent Larsen Milan Matulovic Henrique Mecking Dragoljub Minic Renato Naranja Oscar Panno Lev Polugaevsky Lajos Portisch Samuel Reshevsky Jorge Rubinetti Vasily Smyslov Duncan Suttles Mark Taimanov Wolfgang Uhlmann Tudev Ujtumen.</p><p>Ujtumen from Mongolia about as outside as an outsider could get actually held the lead by himself after Round 3. However reality and Robert J. Fischer set in as the American quickly soared to a dominating position. The other contenders didn't worry about it too much; after all you only had to finish in the top six to qualify for the Candidates and there was even a seventh spot open for a reserve. So they played it safe while Fischer kept working hard.</p><p>At the quarter pole following Round 6 Fischer had 5.5 points and a 1.5 point lead on Geller Gligoric Larson Panno and Ujtumen. But then came a bad stretch: he managed to draw lost positions in round 7 and 8 but Larsen didn't let him off the hook in Round 9. By now the lead had vanished as Geller joined Fischer at the top with 6.5.</p><p>That led to the critical Round 12 encounter between the leaders Geller holding a half-point lead and playing with the white pieces. Any normal grandmaster when Geller offered an early draw would have accepted to get an easy half-point closer to qualification. But Fischer hungry for a win after five rounds without one refused. Geller played inaccurately and lost a pawn reaching a difficult rook ending. Eventually a hallucination and a final mistake sealed his fate and Fischer took the lead. The rest was a matter of technique: Fischer won two more in a row took a couple of draws for a breather then started his famous streak with full points in his last seven games.</p><p>There was plenty of action for the other qualifying spots though. When Fischer began his streak in Round 17 he had 11.5 points to Geller's 11.0 while Uhlmann had 10.5 and Taimanov 10.0. Trailing were Gligoric Hübner Larsen and Polugaevsky with 9.5 and Mecking and Panno with 9.0.</p><p>Geller played solidly the rest of the way making sure of qualifying without trouble. Uhlmann and Taimanov both faded a bit and played Fischer along the way while Larsen and Hübner went on winning streaks and Smyslov came out of nowhere back into contention.</p><p>Fischer Hübner Geller and Larsen were sure qualifiers. Taimanov and Uhlmann could be sure of qualifying with a win but should either fail any of the 12.5s could find leap ahead and even Mecking had a theoretical chance.</p><p>Uhlmann had white against an outsider in Naranja and got his point without too much trouble. Taimanov had a theoretically tougher game but won relatively easily; the kibitzing for Taimanov vs Matulovic 1970 discusses the rumors that Matulovic's pocketbook was on steroids. That still left the reserve spot with Portisch and Smyslov winning their games while Gligoric and Polugaevsky drew and Panno was scheduled to play Black against Fischer.</p><p><strong>Condition: </strong>Near fine.</p> Chess Player, Ltd hardcover
