Rubinstein, Akiba
Akiba Rubinstein (1880-1961) was a Polish grandmaster widely considered one of the greatest players never to become World Champion, dominating the chess world from 1912-1914 ahead of reigning champion Emanuel Lasker. Renowned as an endgame virtuoso particularly in rook endings, he won five consecutive tournaments in 1912 and was scheduled to challenge Lasker for the world title before World War I cancelled the match.
