May-30-09 | | AnalyzeThis: Well, Fischer certainly had this game in mind in his preparations for his match against Spassky, also. He took the black pieces there and improved upon Petrosian's play: Spassky vs Fischer, 1972 |

Apr-16-15 | | m.okun: Atypically for Petrosian. |
|
Mar-07-16 | | capafischer1: spassky's best games are a thing of beauty. He just pushes his passed pawn down the board while petrosian gobbles the useless b pawn. Then, he coordinates his pieceses beautifully and wins in style by sacrificing his queen. |
|
Mar-07-16 | | morfishine: Positively Exquisite |
|
Apr-27-16 | | Howard: Kasparov does point out in MGP that Spassky almost botched the win at one point, but Petrosian failed to see his chance to draw the game. Once those two moments passed, Spassky didn't make any more mistakes after that. |

 | | kingscrusher: 26.Re8 seems like an interesting potential improvement over 26.Nd4 where black maybe should have played Qd6 click for larger viewHere White would be threatening Rc8 |

 | | Teyss: Great game and pun indeed, good job <BxChess>. White's e-Pawn was sort of forgotten on e4 for 13 moves before it came back to life and became the star of the game. This was a key game of the match when Spassky took the lead. I once met someone who was living in Paris and frequently playing in Jardin du Luxembourg, an informal gathering place for Chess fans. He said he played Spassky once who was sometimes seen there in the 1990s. He got crushed of course. Don't know if he actually played him or only saw him, but I like to think the former. RIP Boris, we'll remember you as a great player and a gentleman. We'll try to forget your 1992 match against Fischer and your latest political views. |
