Fischer managed to corner Spassky with pawns. They locked his king in place not just because he would put himself in check, but if he was to try and move away even one square then Fischer gets his queen back on the board and the position of the queen when restored would have led to a check mate. Incredible game. Using the weakest pieces on the board to beat him. It seems almost impossible.
He also locked at least one of Spassky's Rooks at the back row with those same pawns for a large portion of the match. After the two had traded queens, Fischer had more pawn development to keep throwing them at Spassky's back row to regain his queen and Spassky had to keep a Rook there as protection. So Spassky was essentially playing with one arm tied behind his back the whole time.
There is an unbelievably good video on TH-cam called Deep Blue in the series Down the Rabbit Hole on the channel Frederik Knudsen. About the computer that went against the best player in the world, Gerry Kasparov. The back and forth they have is fascinating and some of the greatest chess matches ever. th-cam.com/video/HwF229U2ba8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Q5U4Fn6ce8BT_f8R
The greatest chess regret of my life is that, when conversing with Kavalek in a London hotel in 1987 I, for some mad reason, did not question him about his work with Fischer on the adjournment analysis of this the magnificent thirteenth game. For Kavalek became Fischer´s second in Rekyavik, Short did subsequently tell me that Lubosh told him that he had taught Fischer how to play the Richter Rauzer system Vs Spassky´s Classical Sicilian, though. A line Fischer deployed in the eighteenth and twentieth games.

My sentiments exactly. You can watch the game without all the might haves, could haves, should haves and at a speed that is comfortable to watch. Well done.
Fischer & Spaasky. I feel like I'm in church - chess church - watching their matches. And bravo BRAVO the music accompaniment - as beautiful as the game itself.
Yes: both men are using powerful gifts given to them by GOD - and not for a destructive purpose! Additionally, they had profound respect for each other - not just for the game. Boris had to perform for Russia - but Bobby just performed because that is what he was: a Chessman.
Has anyone tried to finish the game with a possible draw in sight or is Spassky's flight fruitless? Spassky: bishop to C3 Fischer: rook to D1 Spassky: king to B3 (take pawn) Fischer: rook to B1 (CHECK) Spassky: king to A3 Fisher: pawn to A1 (Queen) Spassky: bishop to A1 (take queen) Fischer: rook to A1 (take bishop)(CHECK) Can anyone take it from there. A king and a rook vs a king and a rook and a frozen pawn. Ah, I see, carefully moving the king right or left allows the pawn to become queen and then it's all over. Correct? This was a fun game that's for sure! Yes, the stakes were high for them but to us it was a real joy to watch it played out.
@@tk6729Kasparov wins in terms of longevity, by far,, but Fischer's level of dominance (short-lived as it was) has never been equalled by anybody. not to mention Kasparov came from a country where chess culture flourished, he attended Botvinnik's academy (a 5 times world champion). Fischer didn't have such resources at all. he singlehandedly took on an empire.
Fisher was the best ever. But Spassky was a fantastic player. Just beautiful to watch and very poignant because, if not for Fisher, Spassky may be the greatest ever.
I was 12 when I replayed that game, almost traumatized when dreaming of getting rolled over by black pawn chains while trying to push my game on the other side of the board. 51 years after, I still hold this was the greatest game of chess fought over the board in a World Championship. Clearly not free of errors, but what a fight!
I've got a book on the match somewhere, the author did note that numerous Soviet grandmasters would have been going through Fischer's favourite openings. And Bobby refused to play them.
I love the comments by the "Chess Experts" here who find multiple blunders by the best two chess players of their day. If I see a blunder, I just accept that I don't see the brilliance of the move.
Game number 6 is “The Applause.” Spassky’s King got “squeezed” in the corner so to speak. It was a great positional game by RJF. BS was put into total zugzwang.
Between 1970 -1972, no one in any era could have beaten him. He was the greatest chess player to ever live. He defeated the Soviets all by himself, no computers, and no cheating.
Fischer beat the weakest chess world champion Spassky 17 wins 11 losses! Capablanca would beat the blunder maker Spassky 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Magnus Carlsen would beat weakest Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses! You can not lose 11 times against awful Spassky!
@@RaineriHakkarainen and Mpg9788 Bobby played the man who was put before him by the Soviets. He would have played anyone. He was not playing against the Soviets....or against Russia (or against the Soviets in Russia). Bobby did not create the news hype - and did not like it much, either.
At that point, Spassky had nothing to promote, and all but one of Fischer's pieces were on light squares, leaving the bishop powerless. Brilliant game by both masters!
Many of Bobby's strategies work in everyday life. These strategies get others to show their hand. Strategies like playing the fool and losing on purpose give people who are competing against you, protecting their Idealized Images because of you, and are generally threatened by you because you can make them appear wrong make people "come out" of their vulnerability. Once they show you what is going on with them you go "silent" and can go in for the kill if necessary.
I've watched more GM games than I care to admit and, despite the warmth in my heart for Bobby, it is clear that he would be outmatched by the GMs we have today. The 21st century digital training tools have bred superhuman chess players.
@@airkuna Or you might say he deftly outmaneuvered a world champion, seeing more deeply into the positions of the game, and luring his opponent into a most unapparent trap, all the while appearing to be in trouble. But he wasn't. Unmatched mastery defies all appearances!
Watching Fisher games I came to the conclusion that he is a master of one step moving pieses aka the king and pawns. Also, he has the gut to play risky!
Two things I learned from this game between chess masters: 1) Fisher was not afraid to castle early, and 2) Fisher was ready to strategize by simply pulling back from a difficult position.
Game number 13 is probably the most famous and perhaps also the most dramatic of the 1972 match, but I rate the 6th game higher in terms of quality, at the end of which not only the audience but even Spassky applauded the winner Fischer.
Ese intercambio de damas fue decisivo y hasta cierto punto le otorgó cierta ventaja aparente a Spassky pero Fischer es tremendo y la ventaja en peones que le sacó determinó la partida, sin duda alguna un grande
@@markmorris76 Kind of my same thought. To my knowledge Spassky was even in a more advantageous position to continue. But I guess out of honor he resigned? Not sure.
Unglaublich was gäbe Gottes ist was dieser Spieler auf Schachbrett erkennen und sehen ist für mich unbegreiflich der liebe Gott kann wirklich alles erschaffen was er will
Yea instead of checking Bobby right I knew I couldn't have been the only one that spotted that 😏 Nice find I love these type of game plays it allows you to see 👀 what could've been done better in order to get ahead faster n win out the game
Black wins with c3+. If the white King takes, black promotes with pawn to a8. If the white King moves, black is promoting the F pawn, there is no time to take the black rook.
I don't understand why Spassky, at 11:20, did not move his rook down to the back row. While it's true that he would likely lose his last pawn, Fischer would still have trouble moving his pawns.
God how I wish Bobby was still around to this day. Then again, he wouldn't survive in this era with all the crap going on and such tbh, unfortunately. As he was barely able to survive back then with all the shit going on and how he was and such.
Watching this as a beginner, there so many moves from Fischer that seemed illogical. It looks as if he's sacrificing his important pieces way too easily, only to realize that near the end he just overwhelmed Spassky with "mere" footsoldiers. It's almost demoralizing for a beginner, let alone for a grandmaster!
That would be to Bobby's advantage: feeling demoralized did not seem to enter into his own strategic play...he aimed for the opponents mistakes and pounced at an unexpected time!!!
@@ananda_miaoyinI can only assume that Spassky felt his bishop and passed pawn on D6 were worth more than a black rook. But Fischer must also have assumed the same, otherwise he wouldn't have moved his rook where it could be taken by Spassky's bishop. Quite a gamble, really.
I played games with my dad who play against grand masters... I would get so bored as my dad studied the board I'd just make moves to end the game... and get out of the room.
Just to avoid humiliation. Do not forget: he had the KGB watching his every move, too - better for their player to jump off the tracks immediately... at least that showed them that he was able to avoid being smashed by the train.
@@rmp7400 such a stupid reply, and doesn't answer the question. He resigned simply because he felt the position was lost. The advanced pawns are too strong.
Because the pawn in front of blacks king will become a queen if white didn't take with bishop, no choice but for bishop to take and be captured, and if king made one wrong move a black pawn will promote to queen and if rook tries to stop from it's position it will be captured and leave black with at least one queen and rook against just a white queen..too bad these GM hardly ever finish a game, one side always resigns before defeat..
I am a chess novice, and people that I really admire love this game and the strategy of it, but I have a question, I guess Fisher was considered maybe the greatest all time, maybe debatable, but could he have beaten Kasparov?
Fischer couldn 't beat Kasparov . I argue that Karpov was stronger than Fischer , which is why Fischer refused to play with Karpov for fear of losing to him . Kasparov , as we know , turned out to be stronger than Karpov , according to this logic , we can assume that Kasparov is stronger than Fischer . Fischer was lucky that by the will of fate he fought for the chess crown with Boris Spassky . Boris Spassky was at that time , although a strong player , but by nature Spassky was a lazy person and did not like to overwork himself in chess !! And as we understand it , this is a big minus for a chess player , because in the fight for the world title , sometimes you need to be able to mobilize all your strength ! But Boris Spassky is not one of those players who will fight to the seventh sweat without sparing either himself or his opponent . Boris Spassky at that time was the most convenient opponent for Fischer , God rewarded Fischer with Spassky for his great efforts and aspirations in chess knowledge . I am convinced that Karpov and Kasparov were stronger than Fischer at that time , Karpov 's strength is in his extraordinary calmness no matter what , Karpov always keeps a cool head and this is his big plus ! But Kasparov is Kasparov ! At that time , Soviet chess players were very strong , I want to say again that he was very lucky that he played with Spassky ! Spassky was at that time the weakest link among Soviet chess players .
Anatoly Karpov never gets the credit he deserves. The 2 ks played 5 matches, 150 or 160 games and Kasparov won only 2 more games. Karpov is described as a boa constrictor, but in the 1960s and 1970s he was a brilliant attacker. I'm 58 in a few months so I grew up with Karpov as one of my heroes. The 2 k's played each other after the 5 world championships. They're co-equals.
@@yuriystruykin3849 You make a blanket statement, that Fisher was afraid to lose to Karpov, so he didn't play him. First you don't know that you think that, and that still doesn't say he would lose to either of them.
@@ericday4505 My dear friend, I am 100% sure that Fischer was afraid of losing to Karpov, and he was not afraid in vain ! Of course Fischer is a genius , there is no doubt about it ! But Karpov at that time was still stronger than Fischer ! The Soviet chess school was then the strongest in the world ! Fischer was a self - taught genius ! Do you know what else is very important here ? Fischer would have had to fight not just against Karpov , but he would have had to fight against the entire chess machine of the Soviet Union !!! And this is a very powerful force at that time !!! Fischer did not have such a powerful support at that time ! Behind the scenes , Karpov against Fischer would have been helped by the best Soviet chess players at that time ! Do you understand? Do you remember when Karpov won against Korchnoi , who was very , very strong at that time ? But why? But because Karpov was helped by a powerful machine called the Soviet Union !!! There was a moment when the coaches realized that Karpov was not tired much and the best resorts of the Soviet Union were at Karpov 's service , where he was able to have a good rest from chess and gain new strength to fight Korchnoi and eventually defeated him ! The machine called the Soviet Union was very clever and powerful at that time ! Something like that my dear friend )
Fischer has always admitted that his "secret" was "taking advantage of his opponents mistakes." But that does mean he had to be able to recognize mistakes as they happened....and knew how to profit from them! Bobby was quite a character.❤
Should say "0-1" at the end of the video as Boris Spassky played the white pieces and went first, and Robert James Fischer played the black pieces, went second, and won - as is the convention.
As I watch the game unfold , I get happy when I say to myself , ""Oh, I would move this piece here. """ and then these masters proceed to do exactly what I would of done. I was right in that my moves mirrored their moves about 70% of the time. The other 30% -- well I am not a grandmaster. My problem with chess is when I play I get point greedy , meaning I will always grab an opponents higher valued piece sacrificing my lower valued piece and by so doing throw away a good position through that greed. It seems these grand master never ever do that. They value position over mere points. They never sacrifice a lower valued piece for a higher value piece if it opens up or destroys the power positioning of the pieces on the board.
Every time I think one of them had seized the momentum the other one pulls out a brilliant defensive move. What a battle of attrition!
Fischer managed to corner Spassky with pawns. They locked his king in place not just because he would put himself in check, but if he was to try and move away even one square then Fischer gets his queen back on the board and the position of the queen when restored would have led to a check mate.

@@pontdain Either way, these dudes are FAR above my level, so I am certain I am missing something.
@@ananda_miaoyinI can only assume that Spassky felt his bishop and passed pawn on D6 were worth more than a black rook. But Fischer must also have assumed the same, otherwise he wouldn't have moved his rook where it could be taken by Spassky's bishop. Quite a gamble, really.
But why wasn't Bobby developing B pawn ?
at 11.20 why Spassky didn't move rook in h8?
At 11:23 why didn’t Boris go down and attack Bobby rook with his rook he would have got the queen out and won the game right?
No one today plays games like this! Give me a name!
Музыка какая-то депрессивная... Пришлось полностью звук убрать.
I played games with my dad who play against grand masters... I would get so bored as my dad studied the board I'd just make moves to end the game... and get out of the room.
Who win?Spaasky?
I'm not good at chess. Why did he resign at the end?
Just to avoid humiliation.
Do not forget: he had the KGB watching his every move, too -
better for their player to jump off the tracks immediately... at least that showed them that he was able to avoid being smashed by the train.
@@rmp7400 such a stupid reply, and doesn't answer the question. He resigned simply because he felt the position was lost. The advanced pawns are too strong.
Because the pawn in front of blacks king will become a queen if white didn't take with bishop, no choice but for bishop to take and be captured, and if king made one wrong move a black pawn will promote to queen and if rook tries to stop from it's position it will be captured and leave black with at least one queen and rook against just a white queen..too bad these GM hardly ever finish a game, one side always resigns before defeat..
I meant white king not queen
Epic game
@2:46 Why didn't White Pawn to C4? Guess I'm too dumb to understand.

Após 41 anos ao vermos uma partida brilhante mostra q Fischer foi e ainda é o maior gênio do xadrez vivo ou morto 😂
I am a chess novice, and people that I really admire love this game and the strategy of it, but I have a question, I guess Fisher was considered maybe the greatest all time, maybe debatable, but could he have beaten Kasparov?
Probably yes. We will never know.
Fischer couldn 't beat Kasparov . I argue that Karpov was stronger than Fischer , which is why Fischer refused to play with Karpov for fear of losing to him . Kasparov , as we know , turned out to be stronger than Karpov , according to this logic , we can assume that Kasparov is stronger than Fischer . Fischer was lucky that by the will of fate he fought for the chess crown with Boris Spassky . Boris Spassky was at that time , although a strong player , but by nature Spassky was a lazy person and did not like to overwork himself in chess !! And as we understand it , this is a big minus for a chess player , because in the fight for the world title , sometimes you need to be able to mobilize all your strength ! But Boris Spassky is not one of those players who will fight to the seventh sweat without sparing either himself or his opponent . Boris Spassky at that time was the most convenient opponent for Fischer , God rewarded Fischer with Spassky for his great efforts and aspirations in chess knowledge . I am convinced that Karpov and Kasparov were stronger than Fischer at that time , Karpov 's strength is in his extraordinary calmness no matter what , Karpov always keeps a cool head and this is his big plus ! But Kasparov is Kasparov ! At that time , Soviet chess players were very strong , I want to say again that he was very lucky that he played with Spassky ! Spassky was at that time the weakest link among Soviet chess players .
Anatoly Karpov never gets the credit he deserves. The 2 ks played 5 matches, 150 or 160 games and Kasparov won only 2 more games. Karpov is described as a boa constrictor, but in the 1960s and 1970s he was a brilliant attacker. I'm 58 in a few months so I grew up with Karpov as one of my heroes. The 2 k's played each other after the 5 world championships. They're co-equals.
@@yuriystruykin3849 You make a blanket statement, that Fisher was afraid to lose to Karpov, so he didn't play him. First you don't know that you think that, and that still doesn't say he would lose to either of them.
@@ericday4505 My dear friend, I am 100% sure that Fischer was afraid of losing to Karpov, and he was not afraid in vain ! Of course Fischer is a genius , there is no doubt about it ! But Karpov at that time was still stronger than Fischer ! The Soviet chess school was then the strongest in the world ! Fischer was a self - taught genius ! Do you know what else is very important here ? Fischer would have had to fight not just against Karpov , but he would have had to fight against the entire chess machine of the Soviet Union !!! And this is a very powerful force at that time !!! Fischer did not have such a powerful support at that time ! Behind the scenes , Karpov against Fischer would have been helped by the best Soviet chess players at that time ! Do you understand? Do you remember when Karpov won against Korchnoi , who was very , very strong at that time ? But why? But because Karpov was helped by a powerful machine called the Soviet Union !!! There was a moment when the coaches realized that Karpov was not tired much and the best resorts of the Soviet Union were at Karpov 's service , where he was able to have a good rest from chess and gain new strength to fight Korchnoi and eventually defeated him ! The machine called the Soviet Union was very clever and powerful at that time ! Something like that my dear friend )
Спасский ошибся в нескольких местах
Fischer has always admitted that his "secret" was "taking advantage of his opponents mistakes."
But that does mean he had to be able to recognize mistakes as they happened....and knew how to profit from them!
Bobby was quite a character.❤
Boris vs "Bobby"?! More correct is "Boria" vs Robert
Game is amazing. Background music is irritating..
At 11:23 why not Rh8??
I see. Pc4-c3
Should say "0-1" at the end of the video as Boris Spassky played the white pieces and went first, and Robert James Fischer played the black pieces, went second, and won - as is the convention.
This wasn't the first game.
Hey, these guys seem good. They should like play in FIDE or something
As I watch the game unfold , I get happy when I say to myself , ""Oh, I would move this piece here. """ and then these masters proceed to do exactly what I would of done. I was right in that my moves mirrored their moves about 70% of the time. The other 30% -- well I am not a grandmaster. My problem with chess is when I play I get point greedy , meaning I will always grab an opponents higher valued piece sacrificing my lower valued piece and by so doing throw away a good position through that greed. It seems these grand master never ever do that. They value position over mere points. They never sacrifice a lower valued piece for a higher value piece if it opens up or destroys the power positioning of the pieces on the board.
11:27 white bosh from h1 to H8 ? No? i m dumb good move or not
No music is necessary.
If so, the mute button is your friend. Some of us like calming music.
I saw blunders and missed chances on both sides. I feel chess ready to take on either player.
At 13:02 Spaski should have move his rook to A1 and game over.
Why is it blacked out?
Did he miss an early check mate chance
Cornering and defeating a King.with foot soldiers is remarkable. Quite a battle front
Why he resigned??
Spassky isn't gonna be able to stop Fischer from queening. And once Fischer queens, he's screwed
11:25
Why Spassky didn't go with rook from H1 To H8? Fischer rook forced to take Spassky's rook, then Spassky's pawn promote to queen
Какая то хрень… почему было не взять черную ладью на Н8 белым слоном? 🤔да и вообще, какой-то венегрет
Тоже пересматривал и не понял.
Bobby Fischer forever a scientific grandmaster.....!!!!!!
Why did Spassky not take the rook on h8 with the bishop?
I thought Fisher blundered his rook on h8 to be taken by White's Bishop for free. Did I miss something there?
Yes.
@@ulf-christof_engel So what did I miss?
which game was this?
I’m not a big player and I didn’t understand a rational behind many steps and the reasons for Spassky’s surrender
Дебют...кажется - ,,французская защита"! Её Василий Смыслов любил , их всех советских чемпионов Мира.
