"Line of Thought"  Haaa

The match was best of 10:  You can't do better than 6-0

Prior to that, in the 1/4 finals Fischer beat Taimovov 6-0

And by beating Petrosian in the first game of their candidates match, Fischer
moved his winning streak to 20 straight wins.

So you better move your line of thought out a fair bit.

PS: I do not condone this Non CC thread, & would not have entered it except some
correction was needed.

Fischer is a hasbeen & a nut.
Karpov is still active & (I believe) rated around 2650.
