Endgame Lesson from Bobby | Hort vs Fischer | Palma de Mallorca Interzonal (1970)

The 1970 Interzonal was held in Palma de Mallorca from November 9-December 12, and was the last Interzonal held as a one-section round robin. With the tournament swelling to 24 players and further expansion on the way, future changes were inevitable. The following players vied for six slots in the candidates matches to be held in 1971: William G Addison, Miroslav Filip, Robert James Fischer, Efim Geller, Svetozar Gligoric, Vlastimil Hort, Robert Huebner, Borislav Ivkov, Eleazar Jimenez Zerquera, Bent Larsen, Milan Matulovic, Henrique Mecking, Dragoljub Minic, Renato Naranja, Oscar Panno, Lev Polugaevsky, Lajos Portisch, Samuel Reshevsky, Jorge Alberto Rubinetti, Vasily Smyslov, Duncan Suttles, Mark Taimanov, Wolfgang Uhlmann, Tudev Ujtumen..
Ujtumen from Mongolia, about as outside as an outsider could get, actually held the lead by himself after round 3. However, reality and Robert J. Fischer set in, as the American quickly soared to a dominating position. The other contenders didn't worry about it too much; after all, you only had to finish in the top six to qualify for the Candidates, and there was even a seventh spot open for a reserve. So they played it safe, while Fischer kept working hard.
At the quarter pole following round 6, Fischer had 5.5 points and a 1.5 point lead on Geller, Gligoric, Larson, Panno, and Ujtumen. But then came a bad stretch: he managed to draw lost positions in round 7 and 8, but Larsen didn't let him off the hook in round 9. By now the lead had vanished, as Geller joined Fischer at the top with 6.5.
That led to the critical round 12 encounter between the leaders, Geller holding a half-point lead and playing the White pieces. Any normal grandmaster, when Geller offered an early draw, would have accepted to get an easy half-point closer to qualification. Fischer, hungry for a win after five rounds without one, refused.
Geller played inaccurately and lost a pawn, reaching a difficult rook ending. Eventually, a hallucination and a final mistake sealed his fate, and Fischer took the lead. The rest was a matter of technique: Fischer won two more in a row, took a couple of draws for a breather, then started his famous streak with full points in his last seven games.

The way Fischer played this game was pure evil. Nothing flashy, no surprising moves, just slowly but steadily sucking the soul out of his opponent.

Hey Agad, I know some people here complain about lengthy introductions. But don't worry about them. Your loyal fans enjoy the intros so please don't rush. Someone suggested to provide a link in the description to the first move for those that are too impatient. As always thanks for the great content!

@beakt 6 жыл бұрын

I completely support your comment, Supernova. This surprises me, that anyone would complain. I love the introductions. 99% of people who watch Agadmator's channel are probably like us: We watch for Agadmator's commentary. If you want to watch any game, you can click on any game. In fact, I get annoyed when I accidentally click on a game (video thumbnail) that's on another channel! I promptly make my way back to Agad.

@gusramirez5647 6 жыл бұрын

I agree with your statement that most people like his commentary as do I. However, I don't agree with your and many other people's sentiment that if you don't enjoy his commentary you're not a "loyal" fan, and I believe that sentiment is largely toxic and will only cause people to stop watching agadmator, which means less views, which means less money, which means less videos from agadmator

@petrwalek9901 6 жыл бұрын

1) I would say Qd2 is possible, but black could play sth like Nd4 and white cannot move the knight from c3 as black would exchange the queens and took Nxc2. 2) It's also possible. It makes almost no difference, because the bishop would be quite weak nevertheless, but it was possible.

White could have actually tried to sac a bishop for the two pawn and even though black will capture white's last pawn theoritcaly a rook against rook and bishop is a draw and I am doubting a strong player would lose it
