Apr-14-25 Fischer vs J Szmetan, 1971 
| |
| Jyrki: Bobby´s second move 2.f4 suprises me. At first sight is looks very dangerous. It opens e1-h4 -diagonal to possible black Queen attack in future.In another hand Bobby was #1 in world at that moment. If world´s strongest GM moves such a move, did he have good reason for that ? Maybe ... |
