Nov-03-04		delterp: An excellent example of white 'castling into' black's attack. White's king is safer in the center. While 31) Rd1? is the obvious loser, there was nothing constructive for white to do. It is impressive to see Fischer work on both sides of the board in harmony. First opening up the h file, then threatening to trap the silly a6 bishop, finally pinning the poor e3 knight.

Jun-04-06		keypusher: Quite an interesting encounter...wonder how often Black has castled queenside in the King's Indian Defense?

Jun-04-06		Gypsy: < keypusher: ...wonder how often Black has castled queenside in the King's Indian Defense? > Not often. Here is from the man himself: Shamkovich vs Bronstein, 1971 game is unique, for the fact that in a King's Indian Defense Black castled on the queenside! I was also pleased with the final combination. <Bronstein on King's Indian>

Jun-04-06		keypusher: <gypsy> Wow! In a USSR championship no less...quite a game, too!
