Apr-10-04		iron maiden: On move 9, Black should probably have left the rook on f8. 9...Bd7 10. e5 Ne8 followed by 11...f6 is a good center attack.

Sep-10-04		wall: 32...Bd3 looks wrong when Black must defend. Perhaps 32...Qd8 or 32...Kh8. In the game, if 33...Nxf6, 34.Nxf6+ Kh8 35.g4 Nd4 36.Ne4 Ne2+ (36...Qd8 37.Rxc5) 37.Kh2 Qd8 38.Rxc5

Nov-17-05		AlexanderMorphy: outclassed by fischer!

Jan-12-06		Mateo: <AlexanderMorphy: outclassed by fischer!> Well, this is not so clear. Feuerstein missed 28... Qb6. I guess Fischer would have nothing better than a draw: 29. Nf6 Nf6 30. Qf6 Nh6 31. Rd6 Qb3 32. Rd8 Rd8 33. Qd8 Kg7 34. Qf6, draw.

Nov-10-07		smarterthanbobby: fischer busted him down to the end game like he did 90% of the time.

Nov-10-07		Petrosianic: 90%? Fischer played 4 games with Feuerstein, three of which were draws. So, that makes 25%, not 90.

Nov-10-07		RookFile: <Mateo: Mateo: <AlexanderMorphy: outclassed by fischer!> Well, this is not so clear. Feuerstein missed 28... Qb6. I guess Fischer would have nothing better than a draw: 29. Nf6 Nf6 30. Qf6 Nh6 31. Rd6 Qb3 32. Rd8 Rd8 33. Qd8 Kg7 34. Qf6, draw.> But it would appear that Fischer could play 29. Nd2 instead.

Nov-12-07		zev22407: What is wrong with 34)Nxe8 instead of 34)g4 as played? 34)Nxe8 Rxe8 35)Nd6 and white wins.

Nov-13-07		smarterthanbobby: funny how some players count draws, is that really why you study chess?
