| Dec-05-09 | | udayb: I have always admired this game that I first saw many years ago. It even appeared in Time and Newsweek magazines in 1972 in the lead up to Fischer-Spassky Match 1972. Yesterday, just out of curiosity, I was checking the 'accuracy' of Fischer's moves in this game with Fritz 11. To my utter surprise, Fischer, who was just 13 then, had played Fritz's first choice all the way from Move 11 to Move 36, taking just one more move than was absolutely required to mate white on Move 41. Had Fischer been playing half a century later against a Topalov or a Mamedyarov, he would have been accused of cheating!!! |

click for larger view<11.Be2> is probably better than <11.Bg5>. |
|
| Dec-17-09 | | Oliphaunt: Great game no doubt but 11.Bg5 doesn't make much sense to me; it has no threat and loses a tempo. These days the computers find 11...Na4 17...Be6 instantly... |

| Dec-28-09 | | waustad: <pino>You may be having a problem due to some to the syntax of the comments. Using an older machine, I couldn't read this one but with my 2006 machine (mac) there is no problem. I often have trouble viewing things with my ubunto netbook. |

| Jan-21-10 | | skipwallace555: I just received my copy of Bobby's 60 memorable games and I was surprised this was not one of them. |
|
| Jan-21-10 | | TheFocus: <skipwallace555> This game appeared in Bobby's first book <Bobby Fischer's Chess Games>. He did not want to repeat it in <My 60 Memorable Games>. |
|
| Jan-22-10 | | pawn to QB4: <I just received my copy of Bobby's 60 memorable games> takes me back to what's one of the great moments for any chess fan. Hope you enjoy the book as much as I did. |

| Feb-05-10 | | EngineeringProfessor: Anyone see a BIG move for Fisher after 32. Qb8 ?
He actually played b5 ...
Or am I missing something ? |

I suspect you are missing that black cannot move his bishop due to a discovered check. |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | poolbath1: How many games played in the 20th century that are on chessgames.com have more pages of comments? Not sure how to check that stat. That alone might make it the undisputed game of the century. |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | Petrosianic: Probably not. In this case the identity of the winner is probably responsible for more comments than the game itself. I don't think this one is even Fischer's best game much less the game of the century. But it's probably the best game played by a 13 year old. |

| Feb-06-10 | | falso contacto: a question: who is the strongest fischer's rival, other than spassky? |

 | | Open Defence: < falso contacto: a question: who is the strongest fischer's rival, other than spassky?> rivals he played ? Petrosyan, Geller, Tal
rivals he didnt play or didnt play too often
Korchnoi, Karpov.... |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | Petrosianic: On the domestic front, Fischer's strongest rivals would be Robert Byrne and Reshevsky. |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | Peter Nemenyi: Korchnoi faced Fischer eight times in formal play, so I wouldn't put him in the category of opponents Bobby didn't play very often--some of those would be Averbakh, Bronstein, Botvinnik, and Polugaevsky, with one draw each against RJF. The Fischer-Korchnoi games just weren't very good, with three of the four decisive contests decided by blunders, so they aren't well remembered by Fischer standards. |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | falso contacto: sure, OD, rivals he played.
I might think that this game is not a challenge for Fischer, or doesn't require top form.
Much more this kind of game:
Carlsen vs S Ernst, 2004
That this kind:
Kasparov vs Kramnik, 1994
thank you,
i'll check "inter pares" games. |
|
| Feb-06-10 | | falso contacto: Let me explain myself.
I'm a 1600 player right now. The best in history. So full respect for every GM.
But I think I'm not a challenge for a 2400 player. That player shouldn't be concerned about me. |
|
| Feb-11-10 | | jbtigerwolf: A great game, for sure! Fantastic that Fischer moves the black pieces like they are white. His understanding of tactics is peerless and I am positive he would have been a modern World Champion duking it out with Kasparaov and being too good for the rest, like Kramnik and Anand. His willingness to follow his convictions and march his army into harm's way, just makes his soldiers love him more when they return victorious. They KNOW they are going to win. Their General sends them down the safest paths through the most intense skirmishing; no matter what colour their uniforms. Have just read the annotation on move 17...Be6 and what can a man do but marvel? Only 13yo at the time? Absolute genius. He's Michael Schumacher, Tiger Woods, Carl Lewis, Mark Spitz... he didn't seem to play much and the World is the poorer for it. A character AND a champion, like the above list. Salute! |

| Mar-09-10 | | shatranj7: Does 11...Na4 work because of 12.Nxa4 Nxe4. 13.Bxe7 Nxc5. 14.Bxd8 Nxa4. 15.Bh4 Rfe8+. 16.Be2 Nxb2. 17.Rd2 Nc4. 18.Rd1 Re4. 19.Bg3 Rae8? I'm kinda new to this kibitzing thing. I'd like to know if my line is sound. |
|
| Mar-09-10 | | shatranj7: What if 15.Bxf8? Is 15...Bxf8 16.Qc1 Nxc3 the solution? |
|
| Mar-17-10 | | PhilomathBret: Nobody cares that Tal was under 2700 or Fischer never got over 2800. It's common knowledge that there has been rating inflation. Tal and Fischer are recognized as great players. |
|
| Mar-29-10 | | Chess Network: A game for the ages no doubt! :)

 | | LIFE Master AJ: I will give you one observation.
But first, let me say that I think this is one of the ten greatest games ever played. (My analysis is here, http://www.ajschess.com/lifemastera....) And I am NOT trying to demean this game in any way! In this game, Byrne plays right up to mate, and I have never heard anyone criticize him for doing so. Yet in my game, A J Goldsby vs Tkachiev, 1995, I played on to mate, and I have received an endless amount of criticism for doing so. Where is the logic in this??????? |
