Here, I should have played: 7. Nde2 Be7 8. g4 0-0 9. Ng3! g6 10. g5 Ne8 11. h4 with a powerful attack. If 7. ... Be6 8. g4 d5 9. exd5 Nxd5 10. Bg2 with a comfortable edge. These lines are from Fischer's book "My 60 Memorable Games."

 
7. Nb3 Be6 8. Bg5 Nbd7 9. Qd2 Be7 10. f3 b5 11. a3 O-O 12. O-O-O Rc8 13. Kb1 Qb6 14. Be3 Qb8 15. Nd5 Nxd5 16. exd5 Bf5 17. Bd3 Bxd3 18. Qxd3 f5 19. g4 Nb6 20. gxf5
Perhaps I should have exchanged my Bishop for "the Dark Knight."

 
20... Nc4
Alas!

Looks like keeping the bishop was a good idea.

The King returns to his original square.

This is a: 1) Pawn Promotion 2) Double Check 3) Discovered Check and last, but not least 4) Checkmate
