Sep-24-04		Marco65: Great historical game. I think that's why nobody played 9...Nfxe4 any more. The only other game in this site is D Musanti vs V Varadi, 2001, where unfortunately Musanti didn't remember about this Fischer's game

Dec-26-04		Alaric: Black resigns because 22...Qxe6?? taking back the piece falls into 23.Qxb7+ Ke8 24.Re1! pinning the queen

Jan-28-05		Backward Development: very nice refutation by Fischer.

Mar-03-05		g.ee: Am I missing something after 17. Nf6+ Qxf6 (...gxf6 18. Bxf7+) 18. Bxf6 gxf6, winning the queen for two minor pieces? Has Fischer annotated this game? I'd like to know how he could resist such a trade, and more importantly why he would do so.

Mar-03-05		DWINS: <q.ee>, I think it's just a matter of taste. Your line certainly wins but I think Fischer's line is equally as strong. After 17.Qe2+ most of Blacks moves are forced and he resigns just five moves later.

Jun-13-05		keypusher: <g.ee> In 60MG Fischer wrote something like "By now I was after bigger game than the paltry win of a queen after 17 N-B6+."

May-21-07		timhortons: MUSANTI VS VARADI 2001....musanti chooses to castle on move 10 instead of taking at f6...hes a queen pawn player AS ID CHECK HIS PAGE...seem he didnt remember these line of fischer which is recorded on almost chess literature

Jan-19-08		Whitehat1963: More Fischer genius.

Nov-19-09		spotkicker: Today 9...Nfe4 and especially 9...Nfe4 10.fe6 Qh4 are abandoned variants in Sozin Attack. The best thing after 9.f5 is playing 9...Be7 for black. 10.fe6 fe6 11.Qe2 Qc7 is more playable.

Jan-02-11		notyetagm: Fischer vs J B Bednarski, 1966 12 ? click for larger view How does Fischer (White) deal with the threatened <DISCOVERED CHECK>? 12 ♘d4-f3! click for larger view By playing 12 ♘d4-f3!, attacking the Black h4-queen <PRINCIPAL ATTACKER> (Weteschnik), so that the intended <DISCOVERED CHECK> simply loses to 13 ♘f3x♕h4. <APA>, attacking the principal attacker, is a standard way to meet the threat of a discovered attack. --- Game Collection: APA: Attack Principal Attacker Fischer vs J B Bednarski, 1966 12 Nd4-f3! attacks the Black h4-queen principal attacker

Jan-02-12		notyetagm: One year later ...

Aug-13-13		Jarman: Spamming Collection: Jan-02-12, Jan-03-12, Aug-13-13. IN CASE YOU MISSED IT!

Aug-13-13		The Last Straw: <Jarman> He is NOT trolling. He is pointing out tactical examples to HELP you. Stop trolling, and accept this.

Aug-13-13		AylerKupp: And with 2 responses in 3 years I would certainly not call this successful trolling.

Aug-13-13		notyetagm: Fischer vs J B Bednarski, 1966 <The Last Straw: <Jarman> He is NOT trolling. He is pointing out tactical examples to HELP you. Stop trolling, and accept this.> Svidler missed this theme when he lost Game 2 against Ushenina. He overlooked 30 ♕e6-d7+!, <ATTACKING PRINCIPAL ATTACKER> Black d4-bishop in the <DISCOVERY CHAIN>, intending to meet 30 ... ♖f2-f7+ with the simple 31 ♕d7x♗d4. If Svidler(!) can miss it, then it must be important. :-)

Aug-14-13		Jarman: <The Last Straw>, I didn't say he was trolling, but spamming. Do you happen to know the difference? And yes, repeatedly posting the very same link is spamming as he keeps trying to get attention.

Aug-14-13		notyetagm: <Jarman: ... And yes, repeatedly posting the very same link is spamming as he keeps trying to get attention.> I am not trying to get attention. I am refreshing my memory, my <PATTERN RECOGNITION>. Why would I post here if I wanted to get attention? How many people on the Internet have visited this page?? Maybe 50???

Aug-14-13		Isilimela: Notice after move 19 0-0-0! how all Bobby's pieces are poised for the final attack. He wins in essence by applying the military maxim of concentration of force - "the decisive, synchronized application of superior fighting power".

Aug-14-13		The Last Straw: <Jarman> He is NOT spamming. These are different links to different collections. He is attempting to teach everyone a lesson about tactics by posting diagrams like a puzzle then leading to collections where you can find more such games.. Well, until you come along and complain that he is spamming or whatever you want to call it.

Aug-14-13		notyetagm: Fischer vs J B Bednarski, 1966 <The Last Straw: <Jarman> He is NOT spamming. These are different links to different collections. He is attempting to teach <<<everyone>>> a lesson about tactics > Not everyone. Myself. :-)

Oct-17-13		capafischer1: The sustained attack reminds one of paul morphy. Fischer was relentless with the initiative.

Oct-25-14		Garech: Fantastic tactical play from Fischer. It's interesting that this is the only time in the database that 7...Nbd7 was played against him, as this move is now considered best in modern theory, and the reason why 6.Bc4 has fallen out of fashion and 6.Be3 has become the main move. (Of course, 6.Bg5 is another of the old mainlines, but, as with 6.Bc4, 6.Be3 has become much more popular). 7...Nbd7 is preferred nowadays with the idea of 8...Nc5, but not with the intention of taking on e4, IIRC - and this game is a great example of why that's the case. -Garech -Garech
