It’s the cast from Ocean’s Thirteen!!!!
Martha Stewart in the old man in the boat?
The guy standing with a beard on the left looks creepy!
This one is easy…Starting with the back row from the Left: John Nunn, Jonathon Speelman, Garry Kasparov, Raymond Keene…etc. through the first row ending on the right with David Levy…and the event goes without saying.
😉
Yep, next to Kasparov is Gelfand and in the front on the second might be Smyslov (next to Campomanes?). I remember the photo from the late 80’s in the NIC-magazine. But what occasion? Yes, that’s hard.
This seems to be Hastings back in the 80’s. The man with the beard is Mestal, not Speelman, and I see Chandler, Keene…
You might be right, but I’m very sure the second from the left in the back indeed is Jonathan Speelman.
The second from the right in the back: is he Tom Cruise before his movie Top Gun?
Second on the left i believe is Plaskket, i play with him last year in a spain tournament!!!
That I am not 100% ceratin of the event speaks volumes for the speed of the world today. 1986 World Championship but where is little Tolya?

I recognized the picture from the guy sitting on the right. Who could ever forget an expression like that? It’s even superior to a Japanese-holiday-picture-look!
Top, far left is Tom Hanks.
Isn’t the third guy from left standing, current GM Bachar Kouatly?
Indeed, very well spotted … he isn’t.
