Geza Maroczy

Geza Maroczy (1870-1951) was a leading Hungarian chess master. He was also a practising engineer. Geza Maroczy was born in Szeged, Hungary on March 3, 1870. He won the "minor" tournament at Hastings 1895, and over the next ten years he won several top prizes in international events. In 1906 he agreed to terms for a World Championship match with Emanuel Lasker, but political problems in Cuba, where the match was to be played, caused the arrangements to be cancelled. After 1908, Maroczy retired from international chess to devote more time to his profession as a mathematics teacher. He did make a brief return after World War I, with some success, and today the Maroczy Bind (pawns on c4 and e4 against the Sicilian) carries his name. Maroczy, Geza Maroczy, Geza Maroczy, Geza
