  kbob: In his book the Nimzo, Gligoric castigated himself for 13. Bxc5, pointing to 13. Rb1 in his later game Gligoric vs Bukic, 1980 as the correct path
Mar-21-21  nummerzwei: As pointed out by <sucaba>, the queen endgame was drawn most of the time. Still, from a practical and contemporary point of view, it was better for White to keep his king in the a8-corner.

A sounder defensive method was 81.Qh3, e.g. 81...Qg7+ 82.Ka8 Qg3 83.Qe6 h3 84.Qb6+ Kc4 85.Qc7+! Qxc7 stalemate.
