ROBERT JAMES FISCHER

From Frank Brady's biography on Fischer, "Endgame". This book is a must have if you are a Bobby Fischer fan...

This picture illustrates the basics of Fischer's career. Because very few taught thousands of classical classics like Steinitz Pillsbury, Morphy, then Lasker, Nimzowitch and Capablanca (the latter caused a great impact in terms of their technical excels end and his love for Ruy Lopez, who was a Layer fan). That's why Bobby knew perfectly well hundreds of classic positions and their respective plans in the middle game. The picture shows the Colle system seen against the Indian queen structure, you can see the perfect white central structure of the Loans, moving your pawn to A4, and the ability to activate AC1 through A3, after playing dxc5 eventually. Fischer is here with what was his great love: A pair of bishops who would never overestimate, but it was in his prophetic match vs Taimanov. His extensive knowledge about games and various systems admitted to dance vs Spassky in black with different music like SemiTarrasch (from B7-B5), Pirc, IndoBenoni, Nimzoindian, Aleknine, Sicilian Najdorf and Paulsen, etc, was a daily encyclopedia with the domain of all game phases.
