David Bronstein, a Ukrainian-born grandmaster who played bold and intuitive chess, wrote one of the classics in chess literature and came within one draw of becoming world champion, died on Tuesday in Minsk, Belarus. He was 82.

His death was reported by the World Chess Federation. No cause was given.

β€œFor the sake of brilliance it is worth taking a risk!” That is how Bronstein played, even in his advanced years. After Tarrasch and Nimzowitsch he is perhaps the most outstanding populariser of the game, a genuine teacher of the chess world.” – Gary Kasparov. - Fri, 8 Dec 2006 2:47am Edited: Fri, 8 Dec 2006 2:48am
