 | | IMlday: 12..Nd8!? intending 13.Nf1 Kh8 meets Bg5 with Ng8 keeping the pieces behind the pawn wall. I prepared this improvement in 1983 but only got to try it in D Howell vs L Day, 2006 played at the Staunton Memorial where Bob was directing. I mentioned it to him after but he had forgotten this experience against the young Fischer. |

|

 | | perfidious: <lemaire90> No, because Nh6+ spells ruination. |
|
May-07-14 | | sicilianhugefun: Which book pertaining to Fischer's games that can be considered the most instructive? |
|
May-07-14 | | parisattack: Several, of course. Two of my favorites:
Bobby Fischer: His Approach to Chess by Agur
The Chess of Bobby Fischer by Burger |
|
May-07-14
 | | Sally Simpson: The Agur book is good, don't have the other one.
'Bobby Fischer Rediscovered' by Soltis.
is an excellent and entertaining read. |
|
May-07-14 | | Zuainedison: I dont understand the blaziken suggestion, its impossible in chess NGG4, also dont say when its posible to do. |

|
May-07-14 | | sicilianhugefun: Thanks Parisattack... I am really planning of obtaining the book written by Eli Agur.. |

 | | HeMateMe: great pun! I wasn't aware of Wade v. Fischer games till someone mentioned him on another page. Not a GM but he still got to play some strong opponents. |

No, he was born in 1921, so would have been about 39. |
