  tpstar: Great picture!

I wonder if Fischer complained about the clock being on his left. :p

Nice combination leading to a decisive endgame edge.

  JohnBoy: What is amazing here is how easy black makes it look. Aside from 15.Nxe5 there were no real tricks. Just straightforward play.
Mar-21-11  fab4: <tpstar :I wonder if Fischer complained about the clock being on his left. :p>

He did. And it improved and revolutionized things for the modern day GM's to take advantage of.. Like everything else he did.

From that game on, clocks became optional.. left, or right.. lol

Mar-21-11  WhiteRook48: white got owned by these pawns
Mar-21-11  hottyboy90: Lovely pawn storm white got crushed here. Excellent play as usual from Fischer, making his bishop more powerful than the rook(GENIUS)
Mar-21-11  hellopolgar: Kramnik vs Karjakin, 2011

now if Kramnik was as good as Fischer was, in the above game, he would have took the pawn on move 37 with either rook and went on to win the knight + 4 pawns vs rook + 1 pawn ending.

but again, this game is classic whereas Kramnik's game against Karjakin was rapid.

Mar-21-11  hottyboy90: Fischer is way better than Kramnik ever was in my opinion although I am sure there are going to be people who dispute this!

  chrisowen: <WhiteRook48> Dano shut reverted fufking RJF 0 1 he a go tell it lean baggar
Mar-22-11  selfmate: <Once:...An excellent example of an advantage in space, time and position outweighing a <disadvantage in material>. Great stuff.>

In the position you gave, it's black's move and he is immediately going to win another pawn - so material is actually even by the old 9-5-3-3-1 evaluation criterion. And, by the new Kaufman criterion (9.75-5-3.25-3.25-1), black has a slight material plus.

So it seems more accurate just to say black has a crushing positional advantage.

Mar-22-11  hottyboy90: Why is it that <chrisowen>'s comments never make sense?

That is the reason I put him on Ignore.

Mar-22-11  fab4: <chrisowen> is too funny and too vital to put on ignore.

  TheFocus: It was boring to try and read that inane twaddle.
Mar-22-11  Damianx: Big Fisher fan but i think 13 Qg4 gives Black massive problems am i wrong wouldn,t be the first time
Mar-23-11  hottyboy90: <Damianx> Can black not then play 13... Kh8 without any problems?
Mar-23-11  fab4: <Damianx> as <hottyboy90> pointed out.. Kh8 and black is fine.. f5 was also an option for black in response .
