| Oct-07-03 | | ughaibu: Fischer had a strong preference for bishops over knights so in this game 7.Nf3 may have been the winning move from the psychological standpoint. |
|
| Oct-07-03 | | Benjamin Lau: Fischer's preference and stronger intuition for the bishops is why I've always wondered why he played the Nimzo Indian occasionally. His record is relatively bad with it. |
|
| Feb-25-05 | | aw1988: A powerful game. |

 | | ToTheDeath: It's amazing how much resistance Fischer puts up in losing positions. |

 | | Pawn and Two: In his book, "How To Beat Bobby Fischer", Edmar Mednis stated after Black's 36th move, <Clearly the "automatic" active 36...Re2 must be the right move. Fischer would be the first to know and realize it. He did not like that White could then force a draw with 37.Rc7 Ke8 38.Rc8+, etc>. Mednis was of the opinion that the losing moment occurred at move 37. He believed Black would still have excellent drawing chances if he had played 37...Rf5. |
|
| Nov-17-06 | | RookFile: Yeah, there was another game, I think it was against Matulovich, where Fischer lost the exchange right out of the opening. So, Fischer defended tenaciously, and could have made a draw by 3 fold repetition - and spurned it! Later, the game ended up as a draw anyway. Only Fischer. |

| Nov-03-10 | | elohah: Notes...
11 !
16...?! (?)
17...de 18 Bxf7+! Kxf7 19 Qd5+ ( 19 fe+? Kg8 20 Qd5+ Kh8 21 Qxd7 Qxe5
[ also 21...Qxc2=] 22 Bf2 Nc4= [ 23 Rde1 Qb5 24 Rxe7 Qxd7 25 Rxd7 Nxb2];
Also 22...e6=) 19...e6 (note that this move is forced.)
Now not 20 Qxd7+? Qxd7 21 Rxd7+ Kg8 22 Bc5 ( 22 fe Bxe5=) Rxf4 23 Rxf4 exf4 24 Bxb4 Nc6 25 Bc3 Bxc3=.
20 fe+!, since if 20...Ke7 21 Bg5+! wins. If 20...Kg8 21 Qxe6+! wins. |
|
| Nov-03-10 | | elohah: Finally, if 20...Nf6 21 Qd7+! Qxd7 22 Rxd7+ Kg8 23 exf6 Bxf6 24 Bc5 wins. Or 23...Rxf6? 24 Rxg7+! Kxg7 25 Bd4 wins. |
|
| Nov-04-10 | | elohah: 24...Mednis suggests 24...Re4. White can then respond 25 Rc6 d5 (or Black just dumps a pawn) 26 Rxd5, with complications that will likely still favor White. 28...Since just 28...Rxf4 is possible, one should assume that Bobby's move is stronger. Mednis gives it an exclam. 55 Kf5! Ne7+ 56 Kxf4 Nd5+ 57 Kg4 Nxb6 58 h7 Re4+ 59 Kg5 wins. |

| Jan-07-16 | | Joker2048: I think bobby fischer do anything that the game doesn't go draw..
And this is why he caught in this situation. |
|
| Jul-06-20 | | seneca16: Why not 48 .. h7 followed by queening with check? If 49 Rh2 then h8=Q anyway. |
|
| Jul-06-20 | | hcgflynn: White's play in the endgame was horrible imo. |
|
| Aug-09-22 | | Zugzwangovich: After Fischer resigns, Mednis notes "The QNP will cost Black the rook." This seems slightly cryptic to me. Since White can't play 69...Rb2, I surmise he meant a line like 69...Re3+ 70. Kxf2 Rb3 71. b8=Q etc. |

| Aug-09-22 | | Little Caezarz: They put me on RESTRICTED POSTING so my message might not work. I was free to post when I started out here. Now I get one post per day or the next day. They never explained why or when so I dont kno what will happen but I will try this message. Bobby Fischer won the world championship in 1972, exactly 50 years ago this month. They don't like to show Fischer games so you might get put on RESTRICTED KIBITZING. I think there must be lots of people on RESTRICTED KIBITZING because I did not do anything wrong. Look at the people above who stopped posting. Good luck Zugzwangovich! I will look you up next week to see if you are still posting. |

this is where black goes downhill |
|
| Nov-28-22 | | FSTIMJP: Game moves can't be correct.
Ie 47 Black. |
|
| Nov-28-22 | | Retireborn: In Muller's book the comment is "Hays gives 47...Rd2? as the game continuation, but as 48.h7 would win immediately, I think that it is highly unlikely that it was played." |

| Nov-28-22 | | FSTIMJP: Chessbase has it right:
