The Fischer - Larsen Candidates Semifinal (1971) and Petrosian - Korchnoi Candidates Semifinal (1971) was followed by a match between Fischer and past World Champion Petrosian, scheduled in Buenos Aires from September 30 - October 26, 1971. The winner would be the challenger for the World Champion title, in a match against Boris Spassky. The crosstable below gives a round-by-round summary:
For the first game, Petrosian prepared 11...d5, an interesting improvement to three other tries: 11...♕b6 (W Schmidt vs Matulovic, 1964 0-1 - but the move doesn't appear in the database again before this match commenced), 11...♘e7 (Karpov vs Taimanov, 1971 1-0), and 11...♘d4 (the two prior games were Fischer vs Najdorf, 1966 1-0 and Fischer vs Taimanov, 1971 1-0). The feat in the first game by Fischer secured his streak at 20 consecutive wins - an exceptional performance for 20th century chess!
With his first white in the match, Petrosian placed a halt to the streak in the second game. They followed the opening moves of Petrosian vs Korchnoi, 1961 (1.d4 ♘f6 2.c4 g6 3.♘c3 d5 4.♗f4 ♗g7 5.e3). Fischer declined the Grunfeld, Grunfeld Gambit (D83) 5...0-0 by instead choosing 5...c5. Petrosian won, before securing three draws in games 3-5. The opening in the fourth game was a repeat of Spassky vs Petrosian, 1969 (by transposition).
Petrosian tested the Sicilian once more in the sixth game, but in the adjournment he struggled to hold. With Lothar Schmid overlooking, his lack of defensive resources in the games nearing the wane of the match decided the winner. During the week before Halloween, Fischer returned with a 4 game winning streak in games 6-9. Fischer agreed to tour Argentina to give simuls after this match was finished.
Fischer advanced to the Fischer - Spassky World Championship Match (1972). The next event that Petrosian took part in was Moscow (1971).

"If Tal sacrifice a piece, first take it and then calculate; if I do, first calculate and then take it; if Petrosian sacrifice a piece, DO NOT take it"! Botvinnik. This game is another proof of the fact that he was right.

[@richardfeynman5560]

Fischer resigned the game... A line we didn't hear for quite some time! Petrosian was obviously mentally stronger than Taimanov and Larsen, he showed that Fischer can be beaten!

[@SelfReflective]

Richard Feynman yes, indeed. Let’s not forget that P was a world champion from 1963-1969, so for the better part of 1960’s, the Golden Age of Chess. Tal was a wc for one year only, yet look at all the adulation he receives! P for 6 years, and people yawn. Yet he played 3 wc matches, if it weren’t for Fischer, he would have made it 4, and with good chances against Spassky for the crown in 1972. P was one of the greatest players of all time. Greater than Smislov or Tal, yet he gets no respect at all. And against Fischer he was very near his top form, but he was simply outclassed, this game notwithstanding.

[@dedfed321]

actually fischer said that petrosian isn't confident enough for a player with a his strong game, fischer said that lack of confidence caused petrosian to draw many games

[@gicahagi2559]

@@SelfReflective I totally agree with you and I think that especially Tal is a bit overrated. A hyper-agressive style and eye-pleasing sacrifices all the time shouldn't and doesn't make you one the greatests ever.

@@gicahagi2559 Being a world champion does though.

[@gicahagi2559]

@@Alleis It is a known fact that Tal's opponents weren't able to find the right/best moves to defend more properly against him back in the day. Yeah it worked for that era but anyone with this type of style wouldn't make it to even top 100 nowadays because it ain't healthy. Don't mean to disrespect him of course but that's the way I think.

It's amazing when Tigran goes all out. Not only is he an amazing defensive player but an a fierce attacking player as well.

I love how this channel is so well organized, like a good film or a TV show. The title has meaning, and so do quotes on top of the games. Nothing is random, it's all tied together. Some people might want to say that the display text is not well done, but I think it's great because while it conveys the information it is supposed to convey, it is not something that would invite distraction from the game and agadmator's gorgeous face. If you give people value, they will love you. And people actually love agadmator. I don't see such genuine love pour out for other KZbinrs.

“Fischer grabs a pawn” is becoming a very familiar phrase😂

[@andrewaskito9241]

Hello Everyone

[@NiteMeir]

Michael Van Zyl Turns out Fischer likes to grab them by pawn

[@MultiFirefox23]

Well Fischer was someone who routinely grabs extra pawns if he saw no imminent nor serious threat. If you played against him and you liked sacrifices, you better cash in on the sacrificed material.

I am a huge chess fan but I have never seen this game analyzed by someone, everyone focused on Fischer's wins, although this was a gigantic accomplishment for Tigran, given Fischer's win streak. Thank you agadmator!

End of the day Fischer was a far superior player. Him and Kasparov are the greatest of all time so far.

[@ciprianghenghea7779]

Kasaparov still has the number 1 spot in history.

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

Fisher broke opening principles and lost because of it. He moved his queen and knight twice before castling and finishing developing. Tripple threatening the white knight was an aggressive idea but Petrosian neutralized the threat and emerged with a dominant pawn center.

[@rafaelstroggilos1309]

Amazing piece coordination and switch from attack-to-defense/sacrifice and then back to tactics. Petrosian keeps all of his pieces constantly doing something over the board, like working silently in the background, patiently waiting for their time to contribute to the position by grabbing the initiative! Additionally, huge presentation skills by agadmator who is constantly driven by his passion, delivering high quality analysis over KZbin. We live novel moments.

I must make a correction to you Antonio. 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 .... is not the King's Indian Defense. It is the Indian game and only after the move ... 3. Bg7 is made is the opening a definite King's Indian. As if the move .... 3. d5 is played we go into the Grunfeld Defense. Just a friendly heads up.
