| Nov-25-09 | | WhiteRook48: 12...Bxg2!! |
 |
| Mar-22-10 | | JonathanJ: note that after the 15th and after the 17th move, the position looks the same, but black has lost his right to castle. |
 |
| Apr-17-10 | | bambino3: what happens after 24...Rb7? |
 |
| Apr-17-10 | | Buttinsky: 25Qd5 |
 |
| May-12-10 | | SpiritedReposte: Tactical extrordinaire Najdorf is tied down with scary efficiency. |
 |
| Sep-14-10 | | Damianx: Faster maybe but that is the only means a computer can judge the move by sometimes Fisher wants to humiliate make beautiful sacrifices show a deep combination he see,s etc. even if it isn,t the quickest way to mate and factoring in those possibilities he still plays what to days best engines rate the best move almost 100% |

| Mar-07-11 | | Damianx: Yes it shows Fisher was human but not the way you are suggesting a computer will continue to look until time and depth is reached then move a human will stop looking once a forced mate is found go 4 a smoke stretch his legs saving energy 4 the next game to keep looking and waste energy just to see if it can be done in 6 moves instead of 7 is bad management |

| Jun-05-11 | | Llawdogg: In his chess mentor course on the roots of positional understanding, Silman likes the pawn sacrifice 9 c4. This really kicks off Fischer's strong attack and allows him to gain and keep the initiative. |

 | | SonOfSteel: Once in a rated event, I steered into this variation, but my opponent caught me unprepared with:
7... Nxe4 8.Qf3 Nc5 9. b4 Nb7. The best I came up with was 10. c4 e6 11. cxb5
exd5 12. bxa6 Qe7+ 13. Be3 Nd8 14.Bb5+ Bd7 15. Bxd7+ Qxd7 16. b5... and black eventually gave back the piece for two pawns and later lost by giving me
attacking chances against his king. But I always felt there should have been something
better for white. After all, this line was "Fischer approved".
Well, thanks to all the contributions here, a light finally went on. I found a move
which (unless I missed the obvious, AGAIN) seems to keep black bound & gagged indefinitely! 10.Bg5!...
10...f6? 11.Bd3! fxg5 12.Qh5+ g6 13.Bxg6+ hxg6 14.Qxg6+ Kd7 15.Qe6+ Ke8 16.Nf6# 10...h6 11.Qh5 g6 12.Qh4 f6 13.Bxf6...±
10...g6 11.Bd3! f6 12.Nxf6+ exf6 13.Bxf6...±
10...Nd7 11.Nc6...±
10...Qd7 11.Nb6...±
Please review and advise. Thx |

 | | keithbc: I find it just amazing that my 60 mem games and kasparov's very detailed analysis does not even consider 7...Nxd5 - did they forget such a move was playable. Just amazing omission |
 |

 | | Shams: <keithbc> I think the suggested move is regarded as dubious. E Romanov vs M Perunovic, 2005 |
 |
Sep-29-11
 | | keithbc: dubious it may be but NO mention of this in the aforementioned analysis - striking! |
 |
Sep-29-11
 | | Shams: <keithbc> Fischer and Kasparov aren't going to explicate every dubious sideline in the opening. |
 |
| Oct-04-11 | | Everett: Fischer's positional power plays are such a pleasure to play through. |
 |

 | | HeMateMe: It looks like Fischer is winning after move 15. Is the variation used here "The Adams Attack" a retro nod to U.K. Michael Adams, or is there a different Adams? |

 | | TheFocus: Weaver Adams |
 |

 | | FSR: Weaver Adams: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weaver... I have a couple of copies of his book "White to Play and Win." Pretty ridiculous stuff. A bunch of his games against not-very-strong players are included as illustrative games, but they obviously do <not> constitute best play by Black. |
 |
| Oct-05-11 | | Everett: Personally I am very fond of the positional approaches vs the Najdorf. Mickey Adams and, more recently, Kamsky, have played some enjoyable games in various lines designed to limit counterplay. |
 |
Oct-08-11
 | | keithbc: they (Kasp and Fischer) discussed more obscure moves - that is my point! |
 |
Oct-08-11
 | | keithbc: In my 60 memorable games, Fischer gives alternatives to 7...Bb7 (e6, Nbd7) but misses the obvious (for the reader anyway) of just taking the knight (Nxd5) after the recapture exd5 there is no win and black is still inthe game so why did black (a) not play it and (b_) was it not even mentioned. I still get no satisfactory answer to this. May have to write to Ray Keene or someone. Maybe EVERYONE missed this opportunity? |
 |
| Oct-08-11 | | Dionysius1: Maybe the b5 pawn is a bit weak for that. I'm not great at thinking these things through but what if instead of recapturing the N with the e pawn white takes the b5 pawn with the N or B - then the Q can recapture the N with an attack on the rook. Is that the start of anything? |

 | | TheFocus: This is game 40 in Fischer's <My 60 Memorable Games>. |
 |
| Nov-12-12 | | Fanques Fair: Once I played this incredible variation on-line : 7- g4 , b4 8- g5 , bxc3 9- gxf6 , cxb2 , 10- fxg7 , bxa1 = Q 11- gxh8=Q ... We have now 4 queens at move 11, which is extraordinay ! |
