Bryon Nickoloff is one of the most popular and richest Chess Master who was born on June 23, 1956 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Nickoloff, while certainly one of Canada’s top players for about 30 years, from the mid-1970s until his death at age 48 in 2004, never managed to win the Canadian Chess Championship in his nine attempts, although he was usually challenging near the top. He did remarkably well in his first attempt in 1978 at Toronto (Zonal), which was only seven years after he learned how to play. He scored 9/15 to share 7-8th places, with Jean Hebert winning. He was fifth at Ottawa (Zonal) 1984 on 8.5/15, with Kevin Spraggett winning. At the Winnipeg (Zonal) 1986, he scored 7/16 to share 8-9th places, with Spraggett and Igor Ivanov winning.
Nickoloff moved to Mexico in 1978, married a Mexican woman, and earned his International Master title in 1981, following a string of top finishes in Mexican events in the late 1970s and early 1980s. His peak FIDE rating was 2470 in 1982, within the world’s top 100 players at that time. Following a divorce, he returned to live in Toronto in the early 1980s, and played board one for the University of Toronto, leading the team to a title in the 1982 Pan American Intercollegiate Team Chess Championship.
