 | | Benzol: 14.♕xa8 ♗b7; 15.♕a7 ♘b6; 16.♗e3 ♗d8 17.♗xa6 and doesn't White keep his booty? |
|
| Jul-16-04 | | acirce: <Benzol> 14..Nb6 looks better. |
|
Jul-16-04
| | Benzol: I missed it 14...♘b6. |
|
| Aug-27-04 | | wall: 19.d6 doesn't look good. Maybe 19.Bc4 is best. 20.Qxa8 looks like a poison rook and the losing move. Maybe 20.Bd1. After 24...Bb4, if 25.Bxh7 then 25...g6 traps the bishop just like Spassky did to Fischer at Reykjavik in 1972. |
|
| Aug-28-04 | | Whitehat1963: I didn't know Dr. Ruth played chess! |
|
| Aug-29-04 | | wall: Yes, Dr, Ruth recommends chess for those who have mating problems. |
|
| Apr-14-06 | | YoungFischerSnapper: 19... Qxa8 Dr. Ruth gets greedy with an attractive undefended Rook and his Queen is lost. |
|
| Nov-12-06 | | thatsmate: Does it continue Qh2, with mate to follow? |
|
| Sep-01-07 | | amntony: Dear Benzol,

| Sep-01-07 | | amntony: A nice game by Bobby; he demonstrated the finesse of Queen-side combat :-) |
|
| Apr-24-08 | | analysethat: Fischer said that he 'liked to throw the ball around until he got an opening, and then hit that with all he's got". 14 ... Nc5 whilst a strong move in its own right was a typical Fischer 'shot' setting up the tactics after Qxb4. It did not do any harm to his position, but it also set his opponent tactical problems to solve. |
|
| Oct-23-09 | | Wayne Proudlove: I really identify with Fischer as a genius and life at the top. There's really not much glamour, as much as it may seem. It's more about accepting a great destiny and working hard and living it out. It's not much more than knowing you're the best that gets you to sleep at night and gets you up in the morning. |
|
| Oct-23-09 | | Aspirador: 17.Ng5! would have been it: with the idea 17...Nd3 18.Qxe4! threatens mate on h7. |
|
| Oct-28-09 | | SugarRaySam: If 17.Ng5 then simply 17...h6 keeps Black plans alive and wins a Knight |
|
| Oct-29-09 | | Aspirador: <SugarRaySam> 17.Ng5! h6 18.Nxe4 Nd3 19.d6! Bxd6 20.Qxd6 Qxd6 21.Nxd6 Nxe1 and white is better, e.g. 22.Bd1 Td8 23.Bf4 |

| May-01-11 | | bronkenstein: <a nice little gem>
Indeed , 13 year old Bobby starts to shine .
13. ... Qc7! , 14. ... Nc5! and 15. ... d5! , and white showed some really bad manners by not resigning @ the spot :) |

 | | FSR: Fischer probably recalled this game when he played Portisch vs Fischer, 1966, another game where White exchanged his queen on e4 for Fischer's rooks with Qxa8 and then taking Fischer's king rook. |

 | | Phony Benoni: The score as published in the "Los Angeles Times", August 5, 1956, adds the extra move <25.g3 Qd7>. <Damiaux> White in this game was definitely <Dale Ruth>, as given in the tournament crosstable published in "Chess Life", August 20,1 956, p. 7. |
|
| May-10-18 | | jabinjikanza: Another brilliant ending by Bob |
|
| Aug-07-18 | | TheFrenchChef: Seems to me like white's #10 rook move was too weak and Fischer pounced on that...White recognised that it could only counter force with force... After white #17 knight retreat, black had solidified its tempo from the aggressive b pawn... and the beauty at the end is how elegantly black's knight retreats and squeezes white. |
