The name Bobby Fischer, at least to Americans, is synonymous with chess. A prodigy in the 50s, a world class player in the 60s, the 70s saw Fischer at his pinnacle. He earned the right to challenge Boris Spassky in a title run without comparison, defeating Mark Taimanov and Bent Larsen with perfect scores of 6-0, and ex-champion Petrosian 6½-2½. Now the stage was set, and the only thing standing between Fischer and Spassky was Fischer himself.
The match was mired in political overtones, during the height of the Cold War. The Soviet chess system had a monopoly on the title since 1948, and the expectations on Spassky were enormous. While Fischer studied chess virtually in seclusion, Spassky had the full resources of the USSR. Victor Baturinsky, head of Soviet Chess Sports Committee, said: "Basically, the Soviet leadership and the powers that be in sport, were interested in just one issue: how to stop Fischer from becoming World Champion.
With the match set to begin in Reykjavik, Iceland, Fischer (who had not signed any documents confirming his participation) began to make a number of demands, including a percentage of television rights, a larger prize fund, and all manner of conditions covering everything from the lighting to the chair cushions. To satisfy Bobby's demands of a larger prize fund, British chess promoter James Slater donated a dazzling $125,000 to be added to the prize fund. Fischer still needed more convincing by Bill Lombardy (Fischer's last-minute choice as second), and one famously persuasive telephone call from Henry Kissinger. Mere hours before he would be forfeited, Fischer arrived in Iceland.

"It was the first game where I showed my fighting spirit." Boris Spassky What he meant, ""It was the first game where I remembered I brought seconds to calculate the moves and listening to their suggestions could be helpful." It was a fight of chess and the showdown between two different but massive egos.

@gamerawy2546 5 лет назад

Joydeep Bardhan What he meant "it was the game that i challenged bobby in his favourite variation and played the shrpest moves in the opening and tried to push for win as possiple"

@dustydaniel4204 4 года назад

Bobby is the greatest chess player who has ever graced chess. I don't really know about Paul Morphy (Magnus not higher than Morphy) but Bobby had a shot career. Bobby played from 6 to 29 can you imagine Bobby after so many variations under his belt a beast.

@ciprianghenghea9584 6 лет назад

Sugestion!!!! Please post the game between those 2 grandmasters (this year at olympiad) when one of them remained with a bishop and a knight versus a lonely king and had to remember the correct way of checkmating.It is a small labirint and he was frustrated as he knew he must not mistake one move.

To be honest.. These kind of matches are much better and with deeper meaning than the ones played now.. Bobby Fisher was right. Chess nowdays is boring because of the theoretical tactics. Now there is still theory till move 20.. Thats not chess. That is just study about chess.. Thats why you always see draws nowdays instead of the past..

Sounds like Spassky really loved the game- moreso than HIS performance. He saw the game very objectively, like a scientist testing a hypothesis. Man, what a good sport and a cool guy. To applaud your opponent's brilliance while playing and losing on the game YOU are known for just shows you his absolute love and fascination for the game.

Spassky had sacrificed his bishop earlier. In this variation, Spassky would have captured Fischer's bishop in return, 'winning back' the piece. So he doesn't get his own bishop back, but he does win Fischer's bishop.

In 10:53 of this video: I think that “Fischer” could go to: Black 1- N to D4 to prevent the white Queen from defending the E4 square and prepare to Q to E4 Checkmate White 1- Then, “Spassky” would be compelled to sacrifice his Queen to avoid the checkmate by “Fischer” : Q captured on D4 Black 1- R captured on D4 And if N3 or N5 captured on D4, then Q to E4 Checkmate. If not, then “Fischer” won the White Queen. I hope you have the time to reply.
