Kibitzer's Corner
Jan-24-14  optimal play: This was the sixth game in a match with victory going to the first player to five wins.

13.c4 Interesting to compare with 13.c3 Paulsen vs E Schallopp, 1869

13...Kh8? perhaps better is 13...Bd6

16...Rf8?? maybe 16...Kg8 keeps black in the game

17.Nxd7!

Finish 20...Nxf4 21.Qxe7 Rd6 22.Re5 Nd3 23.Qxd7 Rxd7 24.Rxf5 and white is up a minor piece.

Match score at the end of game 6 :-

0-0-1-1-0-0 (2/6) [+2 =0 -4] Fisher

1-1-0-0-1-1 (4/6) [+4 =0 -2] Goldsmith

And Goldsmith is only 1 win away from taking the match.
