I'm sure computers can handle this with little difficulty, nevertheless the
conceptualization by Fischer is no less then brilliant.

Fischer's second "Game of the Century"...beautiful.

R Byrne - R Fischer [D71]
US Ch. - (3), 18.12.1963

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.g3 c6 4.Bg2 d5 5.cxd5 cxd5 6.Nc3 Bg7 7.e3 0-0 8.Nge2 Nc6
9.0-0 b6 10.b3 Ba6 11.Ba3 Re8 12.Qd2 e5!!? 13.dxe5 Nxe5 14.Rfd1 Nd3 15.Qc2

[D]r2qr1k1/p4pbp/bp3np1/3p4/8/BPNnP1P1/P1Q1NPBP/R2R2K1 b - - 0 15

15..Nxf2! 16.Kxf2 Ng4+ 17.Kg1 Nxe3 18.Qd2 Nxg2! 19.Kxg2 d4 20.Nxd4 Bb7+ 21.Kf1
Qd7!! 0-1

I've never witnessed such beauty while Black appears to be still in the opening,
yet the game is completely won by Black. At the time many GM's thought
Fischer was already lost after 21..Qd7!! But Bryne knew better and resigned!>:)

An Immortal Game by Fischer.
