| Nov-16-04 | | JeffCollier: I got this one pretty quick, and without coffee to boot. Go figure, because I normally have all kinds of trouble. But does it count if I just get as far as winning the queen, or do I have to "see" the entire rest of the game? Was there really a point to the rest of the game? |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | newold: <2ndNature> on 17 f5 you have 17 ... Bf5 and the queen is not yours ... perhaps on 15... Nf4 the way for white is : 16 Bf6 Ne2 17 Be7 and white is 2 pieces up because there is no more bishop in c1 ! |

 | | beenthere240: I got it but first wasted time thinking of ways to pick up the knight hanging on a5. then I looked at sacing the bishop on h6. finally I noticed how stuck the queen was. Fischer had a way of playing along until his opponent made an often unforced error and then cleaning his clock. |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | Marvol: I got this one easily, thanks to yesterday's puzzle - this week it's indeed 'trap the queen' week. The rest of the game is pretty pointless though. |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | themindset: yes, it looks like viktor wanted to avoid being on the wrong end of a miniature... the game might as well on move 15. |

 | | kevin86: I think I found this game on a random search a short while back.The game shows another several examples of Fischer tactics-too bad,Fischer's tactics were as vicious away from the board as over it. |

 |
| Nov-16-04 | | Flyboy216: Why continue the game, and follow up with awesome moves like 25...Nd4(??) ? |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | DanielBryant: Getting rusty over here... |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | rndapology: I've seen this funny one before. It looks like Fischer was playing for this since 12. Bd1 or 13. g3(this without Bd1 might cause problems). I guess the position resulting from the correct move, say 14...Bg4 looked appealing. |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | Knight13: People would resign after 15. Bg5! 1-0. I don't get why they continue the game either. Solved in 10 seconds. |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | Shubes82: Solved in about 1 minute. My first look was the hanging knight on a5. Then the exposed queen became obvious. WHen i watched the game, it looked like Fischer had Bg5 in mind when he played 13)g3 and 14)h4. Who is Ciocaltea, anyway, and why did he continue the rest of the game? |
 |
| Nov-16-04 | | sparding: 1.6 secs ? C'mon! What are you guys looking at ? OK maybe 2.6 secs ... |
 |
| Nov-18-04 | | 2ndNature: <newold> Yes, you are right - I shouldn't count that one, then... :( |

 | | notyetagm: With 15 g5! Fischer traps the Black f6-queen, which has <NO RETREAT!>. |
 |
Nov-28-07
 | | Ulhumbrus: Instead of 12..Be7, 12..Qd8 first avoids misplacing the Queen |
 |
| Nov-28-07 | | Riverbeast: Fischer always thought Ciocaltea was a fish...I remember reading in one of his biographies, he referred to Ciocaltea as a 'player' (in quotes...) |

 | | notyetagm: 15 ?
 click for larger viewHere Fischer (White) notices that the Black f6-queen has <NO RETREAT(!)> and is thus in great danger of being <TRAPPED>. So Fischer plays the excellent <RELOADER> 15 c1-g5!, winning the Black f6-queen! 15 c1-g5! <trapped queen>
 click for larger viewThe point is that after 15 ... h6x g5, Fischer simply <RELOADS> on the g5-square with 16 h4xg5 and now the Black queen goes back into the box. 15 ... h6x g5 16 h4xg5 <reload: g5>

 | | Ulhumbrus: A possible improvement over 7...h6 is 7...f6, because then after 8 Qe2 Qb8 9 Qc4 Black has 9...Nd8, the e5 pawn being then defended sufficiently. |
 |
| Feb-22-09 | | jsteward: why doesn't white take the pawn immediately after 19.dxc6? |
 |
| Oct-06-09 | | WhiteRook48: Fischer had a well-deserved reputation of beating his opponents with great combinations |

 |
| Sep-03-12 | | Luigi Bros: Excellent game by Fischer! Impeccable. The central locking froze the queen, and immobile queen, is a queen dead. |
