Carlos Torre Repetto
Carlos Jesús〔 Torre Repetto (29 November 1904〔(Los Repetto en Yucatán )〕〔Golombek, US Census 1920, Shakhmatny Slovar, Torre, www.myheritage.es (Baptism date: 1 December 1904)〕〔Hooper/Whyld, Gaige say 1905〕 in Mérida, Yucatán – 19 March 1978 in Mérida, Yucatán) was a chess grandmaster from Mexico.
==Biography==
While Torre was Mexican by birth and citizenship, he spent much of his early life in New Orleans and developed as a young player under the tutelage of the New Orleans player E. Z. Adams. Torre later published an extraordinary combination that was supposed to have occurred in a game Z. Adams–Torre and featured White's victory. It was determined subsequently that this combination was never played in a game; Torre's attribution of it to Adams was an homage to his teacher.
Torre first came to international attention when he attended the great New York 1924 tournament and impressed both the American and European Grandmasters with the high quality of his speed chess and analytical ability. The website Chessmetrics.com places Torre as eighth in the world following his tour of Europe. He was awarded the Grandmaster title in 1977.
Torre's career was cut short by mental illness. Torre spent much if not the remainder of his life hospitalized following his breakdown in 1926. A coming marriage that was broken by a Dear John letter is believed to have played a role in his breakdown per ''The Oxford Companion to Chess''. However, the chess historian Edward Winter regards this as an open question. Reuben Fine visited him many years later and found that he still played very well.〔The game is included in Fine's book ''Lessons From My Games'' (1958), along with some comments on Torre's demeanor and condition.〕
