Default Re: Chess World Championship

Regarding move 29 in Game 1: Fischer was asked if he was trying to create winning chances by complicating a drawn position, and his reply was "Basically that's right. Yes".

However, after adjournment he told IM Lombardy he had also played too fast. So, the final decision is either 29...BxP? or 29...BxP?!, depending, as Black still had the draw before giving away the game.
