Although some will say that this is a "point-of-view" type of a question, there is an answer that is universally considered correct by most chess experts. (including myself teehee:>😉
Ok, here we go:
Who was (no longer alive) the greatest player never to win the World Championship?
Who will win Davy Jones chess Challenge part 1!?

Originally posted by KeplerThat's an interesting choice, I never really thought of him as being a possible World Championship candidate, Capablanca, Alekhine and Lasker were much better than him for just about his entire career and I'd rate Rubinstein as a better player as well.

How about Harry Pillsbury, he doesn't seem to get talked about much nowadays (maybe it's different in America), but I reckon he would have been World Champion for years if it wasn't for Lasker.
Originally posted by MahoutNo. He was never in Kasparov or Karpov's league (although he managed to beat the latter in a short, so to speak, match). Ivanchuck was probably better than Short at that time as well and maybe even Anand (though he was still nowhere near his peak).
Would our Nigel Short be a candidate as a possible champion if it weren't for Kasparov keeping him away.
