Blistering Pace at Buenos Aires
The strength of the Buenos Aires international is such that half the field of 20 masters and grandmasters are so closely bunched together after eleven rounds that any among the first dozen can be considered as potential winners. The Americans, Larry Evans and Sam Reshevsky, are doing especially well. In the first round, Evans, in a superior position, won from Reshevsky on time. Top scores: Evans, Reshevsky, Unzicker, 7½-3½ each; Uhlmann, 7-4; Korchnoi, Szabo, Olafsson, 6-4 each; Taimanov, Rossetto, 6-5 each; Ivkov, Pachman, 5½-5½ each.
The big surprises are Bobby Fischer, USA, S. Gligoric, Yugoslavia, and E. Eliskases, Argentina, tied at 4 pts. each near the bottom of the list!
