24... Rb8
|
Trying to support the b5 pawn once the knight moves. This also is a trap. IF 25. Bxb5 Bxb5 26. Qxb5 then Nc3 which attack the queen and pawn. It also defends the e7 bishop and black can freely take on e4 with a winning position! |

28... dxe5 29. Bxf6 Bxf6 30. Qxf6 Qc3

Black has some counterplay. It temporarily forks the knight and the bishop. |
|
| |
|
|
31. Nc5
|
Guards the bishop while attacking blacks bishop and knight. Fischer |
|
| |
|
|
31... Nxc5 32. bxc5
|
White crashes through and can threaten Qxf7. |
|
| |
|
|
32... Be8
|
The only way to protect the bishop and prevent mate. |
|
| |
|
|
33. Bf1 Qxc5
|
Material is now equal although white has a crushing attack. Attacks the rook and prepares the queen to come back and defend. |
|
| |
|
|
34. Re7
|
Protects the rook and prepare to roll the d pawn. |

34... b4

Black deperately tries to queen. He's already in a losing position so he needs some form of counterplay. |
|

|
|
35. d6 Qc6 36. Bb5
|
Bc4 is crushing with a decisive threat: 37. Bxe8 then Bxf7 38. Qxf7 Kh8 and Qg7# So instead of facing checkmate, Weinstein resigned. He's had enough.
What a brilliant game by Fischer! Notice how Fischer uses all his pieces for the attack, not just a few. |
