Boris Verlinsky (1888-1950) was one of the top Soviet players in the 1920s and Soviet champion in 1929 but his GM title was removed in order to make Mikhail Botvinnik the first Soviet grandmaster. He beat Alekhine, Capablanca, Bogolyubov, Levenfish, Bronstein, Rubinstein. #chess pic.twitter.com/Iq8vtRUETV
