Dunno bout the best but the worst were US players. They either went dingbat crazy or else posted stupid topics titled "who is the best?" incessantly.

That's because they were forced to memorize Rabbie Burns poems in school.

it changes often. but right now I enjoy watching rashid nezmetdinov.  I believe he could beat any player in his time.  but last week I could make the argument for magnus carlsen.

        I dont know  who was the best player of all time,I wont take a guess. It seems to me that whenever a player obtains or retains  the tittle of world champ he automatically become  the best player of all time....and rightfully so. Saying that then my best guess is Carlson until he loses his tittle to another,then that player  will become  the best of all time.

If each player had their chess memories wiped, then were given the same material to study for 5 years, Kasporov would be.
