 | | Eyal: <ughaibu: What's wrong with 19....g6?> According to Fischer's own comments, 20.f5 gxf5 21.Bxf5 exf5 22.Qxf5 Qd8 23.Bh4; but that's probably a bit too simplistic, since Black doesn't have to protect the rook that way and has a better defensive resource in 22...Kg7! (23.Qxc8 Ne7 24.Qa8 Bd7 and the queen gets trapped). On the other hand, after 20.Bxg6! fxg6 21.Nxg6+ White has a very strong attack. |

| Oct-01-09 | | rjsolcruz: 39 years after this historic game, and I guess that every Fischer game falls in this category, 11 year old Rhal Sol Cruz of MERALCO Chess Club and La Salle Grade School Chess Team, ventured into the same opening line vs National Master Gerry Cabellon in a simul dubbed as the Abe Belen Memorial Cup; 1 e4 c6 2 d4 d5 3 exd5 cxd5. Rhal continued with 4 Nf3 - Develop Ns before Bs. |

 | | kingfu: The purpose of this opening is to play against the black Queen Bishop. That is why White plays Bd3. This prevents Bf5 which is common is many Caro-Kanns. If White plays Nf3 then black would play Bg4 then e6. What did black actually play? |
|
| Nov-16-09 | | ajile: A very harmonious opening setup against the Caro-Kann. However according to the database Black's 9..e6 was suboptimal. Better was any of the following: 9..g6
9..Qb6
9..a6
9..Rc8
9..e6 blocks Black's q-bishop in. Note this game that Black wins with the alternative 9..a6: Campora vs V Tukmakov, 1988 |
|
| Nov-16-09 | | ajile: The move 9..e6 has a very poor record with White winning 71% and Black winning none in 7 games. |

 | | Jonathan Sarfati: <rjsolcruz>: "Develop  s before  s", as Steinitz explained to Napier, is really a deduction of the principle of first playing pieces where their best square is known, leaving options open for other pieces. In their day, the openings usually had
s on their bishop-three squares, but the best destination of the depended on later play. Hence they would leave their development till later.In the exchange Caro, the best squares for the B are known, so they are played first. Also, playing f3 too early allows lack an easy game with ... g4. Actually, most modern openings tend to develop the minor pieces on one side before moving the minors on the other side, so the "s before s rule" is honoured mainly in the breach anyway. |

| Oct-26-10 | | SpiritedReposte: Thats a sweet pic. Tigran looks annoyed lol. Cheers to Bobby Fischer's chess skill! Best U.S. player ever! Sry Morphy, but you werent playing Petrosian, Spassky and Tal! |
|
| Oct-26-10 | | ughaibu: Tal 4, Fischer 2. |
|
| Oct-26-10 | | SpiritedReposte: Yea that Tal guy was an OK player I've heard. He won like an open tournament once or something, real dry,boring, positional style...lol whats your point? |
|
| Oct-26-10 | | diceman: <GrahamClayton: Photo of the players shaking hands after the game> It says Fischer's second win.
(which would be the English opening
Fischer won as black)
Also notice his suit is dark vs.

Tal beat Fischer four times, all of them at the 1959 Candidates Tournament, where he swept his games against Fischer 4-0. Tal won the Candidates Tournament and then the 1960 World Championship match, becoming the eighth World Champion. Tal had a winning record against Fischer in regular tournament games, +4−2=5. (Fischer beat Tal in two unrated blitz games in 1970). In other words, Tal won those 4 games while Bobby was 16 years old, and would never again beat him... |
|
| Mar-17-11 | | ughaibu: Well, let's look at Fischer's wins: in one Mikhail absent mindedly reversed the order of his moves, getting a lost position from the opening. The other loss was at Curacao, where Mikhail lost to everyone, on account of his health. And of course, Fischer never again beat him. |
|
| Jan-04-12 | | M.D. Wilson: Korchnoi dominated Tal more than Tal ever dominated Fischer. Tal himself admitted that he beat Fischer when "I was Tal but Fischer was not yet Fischer". Spassky's consistent record against Fischer prior to 1972 is much more convincing. |
|
| Jan-04-12 | | Petrosianic: <And of course, Fischer never again beat him.> Partially because Fischer never again played him. |

 | | berbanz: This famous Exchange Variation, on account of this victory by Fischer, was the inspiration in one of the games in the 3rd Training Simul for MVP Olympics conducted by Meralco Chess Club. It is the game on Board 1 (out of 6 boards) by RJ Sol Cruz vs National Master Gerardo "Giri" Cabellon: 1 e4 c6 2 d4 d5 3 exd5 cxd5 4 Bd3 Nc6 5 c3 Nf6. However, Sol Cruz continued with 6 Nf3 instead of Fischer's 6 Bf4. Interestengly, the Fischer line or the line chosen by Fischer was played by another World Champion in Lasker vs Tartakower in 1923. |
|
| Jan-23-12 | | King Death: <Random Visitor> A long time ago I saw 12...Nh5 mentioned in annotations to this game with the line 13.Be3 f5 14.g4 fg 15.Ne5 and White's better or some words to that effect. |

| Nov-27-12 | | rjsolcruz: Rhal Sol Cruz of Meralco Jrs vs Anthony Abogado of Vibes
Match, G/60
November 24, 2012
1 e4 c6 2 d4 d5 3 exd5 cxd5 4 Bd3 Nf6 5 Bf4 Nc6 6 c3 e6 and as mentioned in a previous post, e6 is a sub-optimal move. Modern Chess Openings lists 6... Bg4.http://www.chessvideos.tv/replayer-... |
|
| Apr-17-13 | | RookFile: In a losing effort, Petrosian did a good job here of trying to confuse the issue. The worst thing is to simply go down the expected road without putting up a fight. |
|
| Apr-23-13 | | Everett: <Petrosianic: <And of course, Fischer never again beat him.>
Partially because Fischer never again played him.> Which is the reason Tal never beat Fischer again. No fault of Tal's, of course. |
