| Kingsider: HIS?chances were those of a SHE!Wasn't this Kate Sillars in a Chicago simul? Bobby had just turned 21? Either way this has to be one of the most interesting Fischer games! Also Bobby said he would give knight-odds to any gal,but dont know if that was before or after this. |

| al wazir: <Confuse: i dont understand? why didnt black move her queen after taking fischers?> Well, white already has two pieces in exchange for the . If, e.g., 15...Qc8 then 16. Rf1 Bg4 17. Nxf8 Bxf8 18. f5. White has pretty good attacking chances and almost even material. |

| blingice: Because he would've lost his bishop, and he wins more material by trading his bishop for rook and queen for knight. |

| olaf4lena: Again, Why not 15... PxN |

| blingice: Then Bxe6+, and then white takes the bishop. It is now two minor pieces and a pawn for a queen, but Fischer has more active pawns. Black ends better with a more protected king, and a minor piece for a rook. Sillars way seems to be best. Shall we consult <crafty> again? |

| An Englishman: Good Evening: What's Black's best move on 17? 17...Bc7? 17...Re8? 17...Kh8? Something else? |
 |

| Manic: Fisher misses mate in four after Ke8, starting with Bc6+. I think black should've moved her queen or taken the pawn. |

| ReikiMaster: What can white do after 16...Rfxd8 and Bf8? Black is up in material. |

| LexBenaim: Good call manic. (Bc6+, Bc5+, Nxg7+, Rf5#, right?) That's pretty. |

i agree with you. |

| blundermaker: Why is 17.. d5 exactly a blunder? It seems to be a pointless move, indeed, but not a losing blunder(for me, which doesn't mean much :( ). |

| benigno: <Confuse: i dont understand? why didnt black move her queen after taking fischers?> I was wondering that too. Doesn't 15... Qb6 win for black. |

| keypusher: I'm no crafty, but if 15...fe 16 Nxe6 threatens the queen. If then 16....Qc8 17. Nxf8+ and 18. Nxf3. 15....Qb6 looks better. Not sure what White does then. |
 |
| May-10-06 |
| El Tiburon: I was thinking 15... a5+. Doesnt this save her queen as well as preserve some fairly equal piece exchanges? The queen ends up in an awkward spot, but after some exchanges... I would much rather have a queen roaming around on a sparse board than a couple of lesser pieces. Of course, I'm just a patzer with an internet connection. |

| kevin86: Nice pun: it not only fits in with the name but the game as well. Strange game-it looks like white is giving up the store,but he ends up ahead in material. Typical Fischer: he makes a rook and three pieces seem like about two rooks,four pieces,and a partridge in a pear tree. |

| itz2000: it's a big honor to have one game in database, vs Fischer, and to be in Game of the day.. isn't it? |

| e4Newman: more of that wonderful annotation we love |

| dakgootje: when i would be in the opportunity to play against fisher and he offers his queen this way i would probably accept it... if i would lose this way after that i wouldnt be too happy though ;-) |

| crafty: 15...fxe6 16. xe6+ h8 17. xf3 a5+ 18. d2 a4 (eval -2.23; depth 16 ply; 1000M nodes) |

| blingice: For those too lazy to play it out, <crafty>'s line ended up: click for larger viewSeems pretty surprising that Sillars missed that though. |
 |

| samikd: Even 15..Qa5 would have won. Horribly unsound sacrifice by Fischer |

| KateGasser: I want to thank those who posted comments on this game, which I played at the age of 16 under my maiden name. |

| Maatalkko: <KateGasser> That's awesome that you played him! Welcome to the site! Do you know <Kingsider>? I was reading the other posts and I wondered how he knew your full name, when the website only says "K Sillars". |
