Bobby Fischer vs Boris Spassky: Game 6 | 1972 World Chess Championship

[@johndean8970]

Bobby Fischer, a fantastic player! And Boris Spassky, a class act: Boris Spassky, after resigning this game, got up and applauded Bobby! What a sportsmanship. How many players would do that after losing a game?

[@hewhowedontsee]

He was part of fishers masterful game. It stings but the sheer thrill of being part of something like that is too overwhelming for any chess player.

[@krob1957]

Yeah, that was classy of Spassky. I wonder if Fischer would have done the same. Doubtful.

[@Tobi-pn2xs]

@@krob1957 he didn't have that kind of charm, he was a chess legend but besides chess and his incredible intelligence, there was not much about him

[@mkemechanic]

"Competitors of this great game can, really should, carry themselves in a similar way as Boris Spassky did in defeat." Well said, sir. Later in their lives, Spassky acted as a protector and friend to Fischer, after Fischer had started his downward spiral. Spassky was a real class act.

And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second [b]death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, [a]John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” 5 Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said [b]to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” 6 And He said to me, “It[c] is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. 7 He who overcomes [d]shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. 8 But the cowardly, [e]unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” Revelation 21:1-8 Read full chapter

There were many GREAT chess players before and after Bobby Fischer, but there was never ever anyone that came even remotely close to what Bobby Fischer was. He was not only a genius, he studied chess theory so hard that calling him a maniac workaholic would be an - understatement. At 14 years of age he became a US National Champion. At 15 he qualified as 5-6 to the Candidates tournament, a feat yet to be seen by someone else. If it wasn’t for Soviets cheating BF would have been the WCC at 17, not 27… a fact many times overlooked. His 20-0 streak is litterally unheard of: demolishing w/o a loss 3 of then Top 10 players. Can you imagine Carlsen today beating say Topalov 6-0, than beating Nakamura 6-0 and finally beating say Kramnik 5.5-2.5. I can’t… Fischer did it. Than in 1971 there was the first (unofficial) W rapid/blitz chess championship, all the greatest were there - Tal, Korchnoi, you name it. Fischer scores 19.5 out of 21… Tal is 2nd with 14 points. ANd than the 1972 match - starting with 0-2, he demolishes Spasky 12,5-8,5. No one ever won a WCC match being 2 points behind. Bobby did it like a breeze. Last, bit not least - the Elo rating - Bobby in July 1972 has 2,785, with 70 point/decade elo-inflation, that is worth well over 3,050 point today. 3,050 that’s right, which is 200 more than Magnus Carlsen has or that Garry Kasparov reached at his peak-time. No one ever like Bobby…

[@bobfree1226]

***** yes neek I agree, ive watched just about every game from all the masters an what I have observed is that fischer seemed to have known all the variations and defenses plus the offenses played off of those defenses an knew beforehand what his opponents were going to move,so he was already 4 -10 moves ahead of them and no doubt practiced with other moves an knew that they would work based on his opponents standard moves. This is evidenced by some moves, that even the g masters said while analyzing an said WHY did he make that move as if it was a bad move or something new an it almost every case that new move hurt is opponent, an put them in a weakened condition. ive noticed that it was the attacking opponents who traded like tal that gave him trouble at times. fischer more then any other player sacrificed better pieces for less but gained him the best POSITION to eventually win. No one was better an kasparov would have been no match either. if bobby was not borderline insane he would have even been better if that were possible.

[@andrewhall7930]

+Bob In 1971 and 1972 Fischer was the dominant player to ever play the game. But in terms of a lifetime career he is not the best. Remember Fischer only won 1 world chess championship. There are guys out there who have won 3+ Fischer was like a shooting star, came out of nowhere, exploded and the promptly disappered. Gary Kasparov offered to play Fischer over and over, and Fischer refused him every time. I'm American, and I will say this: After 1974 Kasparov would have wiped the board with Fischer.

This is widely regarded as the best game of the match and one of the best games of the century. It is Fischer's chess at its best -- simple, pure, and flawless. To this day, the question still is, How did Spassky lose? He doesn't blunder and he doesn't make any obvious mistakes. He makes a couple of less-than-perfect moves, but that's all it takes against Fischer at the peak of his powers. This game is how he will be remembered a thousand years from now.

According to today's engines, the game was pretty much "balanced" up to move 20. Looks like 20... d4 was the decisive mistake, which lets the white Bishop to the excellent square c4 and also gets the black pawns into a passive blockaded position.

Just reviewing this game and I was delighted to discover that you have commented on it :)

[@grahamlamburn1087]

The position at move 17 didn't look all that bad to me for Black. Slightly awkward, but nothing terrible, so I threw it to the engines in case I was missing something and Houdini gives Black a +0.1 advantage. It was d4 instead of dxe4 that had the computers changing their mind from black advantage to white advantage

Thanks for the post. ChessNetwork! I remember the match. I couln't wait to see the latest game in my paper - and I was on vacation! Truly exiting. A match for the ages.

[@EnzoFerenczyo]

I've always been fascinated by great chess players and remember the pivotal match from my younger years. I also wish I was a good chess player, but unfortunately, it's not one of my talents. I still love watching analysis of games, I seem to do that better than playing, lol. I do wonder though if anyone can answer this since the Fischer-Spassky years has chess grown in complexity? For example, how does Magnus compare with those masters? Who would win?

[@paulmasgalajian4519]

This win by Fischer reminds me in some ways of game 5 in the 1963 World Championship match between Botvinnik and challenger Petrosian. In that particular game Petrosian played so "simply" and logically that it's difficult to discern how the champion so "easily" drifted into a lost position. The great Capablanca routinely defeated his opponents in this way. Fischer's play made Spassky SEEM weak ! ! !

Excellent evaluation! Thanks.

[@BooBooJonez]

I wish the squares and piece were highlighted better during and after each move. It's very confusion as there is very good focus and emphasis on "possible" move but when the actual move occurs it just a quick flash. It's almost like you expect the person is already familiar with this particular match. You should highlight the departure square and the destination square along with the piece with a red(?) arrow and flash everything 2 or 3 times to indicate what is actually being moved. I know you note the move on the side but for some of us who see and recognize patterns have a hard time shifting back and forth as the visual is much better suited....

A couple of years ago, I beat a Russian player in Barbados. He approached me and my buddy, mid-day, in a bar. He had two pretty women with him (sister + girlfriend?). I decided to avoid "standard play" if possible because he would surely be prepared for that. At the end of the opening, he was castled on his king side, but had developed his power to his queen's side (even both knights were on queen's side). I didn't wait to see what he had in mind...I attacked the knight's pawn, in front of his king, by sacrificing bishop. The guy got up... walked around behind me, put his head almost, on my shoulder and looked at the board. He said nothing and then put his head near my other shoulder and said "I can't see why you made that move." I did not comment. His King took the bishop. I then threw everything at his unprotected king and checkmated in 3 or 4 more moves. My buddy was suppose to be recording the moves into his phone, but failed to do so!!! Nobody has been able to tell me why anyone would choose to "back up" their second knight to the same diagonal as their knight at bishop3. (???)
