  patzer2: Early in his career, Fischer demonstrates excellent technique in handling the Black side of the King's Indian and in winning this instructive Rook and Pawn ending.
Feb-11-06  RookFile: White could have safely resigned after 51.... Rh3, and probably sooner.

  technical draw: Fischer learned a lot from Capablanca.
Jul-18-09  drukenknight: Like how to hide away from international chess for 20 years?
Jan-27-11  ycpl: White actually looked pretty good on the move 18
Feb-18-12  screwdriver: Unfortunately for white, there aren't any rules that say a decision has to be made after move 18. Fischer demonstrates good knowledge of the Lucena position.
