Fischer-Gadia,Mar del Plata,1960,third round
Here is the game score,taken from "Fischer 179+1 partidas",page 35,
by Gregorio J. Lastra,Mundo del Ajedrez,1973
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cd4 4.Nd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6 6.Bc4 e6 7.Bb3 b5 8.0-0 Bb7
9.f4 Nc6 10.Nc6 Bc6 11.f5 e5 12.Qd3 Be7 13.Bg5 Qb3 14.Kh1 0-0 15.Bf6 Bf6
16.Bd5 Rac8 17.Bc6 Rc6 18.Rad1 Rfc8 19.Nd5 Qd1 20.c3 Be7 21.Ra1 f6
22.a4 Rb8 23.Ne7 1-0
Soon after the game had finished,Bronstein asked Fischer how come he had
thought of that rook move.Fischer answered,"Tal moves his rooks back and
forth,why can't I do the same?".["How Fischer Plays Chess",page 52,by
David N.L.Levy,1975,Collins] By the way,the late Olício Gadia was twice
Brazilian champion(1959 and 1962),most likely he was playing in Mar del
Plata because he was then the reigning Brazilian champion.
