Fischer Wins in New York

Submitted by kenytiger on Fri, 08/15/2008 at 8:10pm.

In this classic game from the US Championship of 1962, James Sherwin dares Bobby to a battle of book knowledge in a obscure variation of the Sicilian. There may be some line Fischer doesn't know, but this isn't it.

because if 19. Qxd4, then black plays 19...bh3 putting pressure on the queen and king, which is allowed by the queen vacating the 3rd rank to capture the knight.

Fischer making clever plays again, tries to lure his opponent into position.
