Anyone who has heard or seen Fischer in the past 10 years (make that 50) would know that this sort of coy chit-chat is as far from his style as singing Diana Ross karaoke. There are probably dozens of faux Fischers out there by now, certainly there were half a dozen before Short's article. Before you post these games, you should check them against your computer program with the identical time control. I only checked one of the 1 0 games and there is a 90+% correlation with Fritz 6 for both players. Fine for your comp, impossibly high for a human in 1 0. You were playing a computer. Every "Fischer" game I've seen circulated so far were clearly comp games after the silly openings. (Not that it's hard to make a book with these moves.) Several people sent me games after my last article mentioned the Short piece, and they were all computer play. Mig http://www.kasparovchess.com
