Sad news comes that Hungarian grandmaster and maverick Andras Adorjan passed away on Thursday at the age of 73. Adorjan (né Jocha) had a distinguished career, from his days as a junior (runner-up to Anatoly Karpov in the 1969 World Junior Championship) to a pair of Hungarian championships, successful participation in many Olympiads, and his qualification for the Candidates in 1979.
He was also an invaluable second to Garry Kasparov and Peter Leko, a noted exponent of the Gruenfeld Defense, and famously a bit of a propagandist for the black pieces in his trilogy of “Black is OK” books. He was a colorful figure in the chess world, but as he had retired from the game by 2000 he won’t be well-known to many of today’s players.
So have a look at this memorial article (with several games) on ChessBase and the external links at the bottom of his Wikipedia page, and get to know a little more about this notable figure of late 20th century chess.
Rest in peace.
