He looked good in his younger years, when he had hair. He was apparently something of a ladies' man. So was Capablanca. Belies the myth that all chess players are geeks who can't get laid...

It's interesting that far more people have already viewed this thread than my recent post about the greatness of Reti's chess!...

Then don't post here. This thread is about countering the many (somewhat sexist) threads about women players.
If those threads are sexist doesn't that mean this one is as well? Why not an all inclusive "Best Looking Chess Players" thread? Men or women....

Theoretically yes, but it's about achieving some equalibrium. Besides, few people are offended by sexism when the boot's on the other foot! ;-)
There are already plenty of threads about the best-looking women, that's why I didn't include them here.
Let's please not turn this into a political thread...
No one who is above 1600+ rating has the sex appeal of a burning bus of school children :)

Agreed -- it was not my intent, just wanted to point out that "reverse" sexism is still sexism.
Pine away gentlemen.
Since there have been so many forums about the best-looking female players, I thought I would balance things out a little and make one about the best-looking top male players (no, I'm not gay).
My votes would be for (obviously during their younger years):
Keres
Capablanca
Fischer
Larsen
