| | Match of the Century - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Spassky played badly in the endgame and the game was adjourned with a big advantage for Fischer. | | | Spassky continued in the passive style that he had employed in game 1 and which indeed had characterized his play ever since he ascended the chess throne. | | | Spassky resigned the game by telephone, which Fischer made a big fuss about, but finally was convinced that the rules allowed it. |

| | Boris Spassky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Spassky continued to play, winning several championships including the 1973 Soviet championship. | | | He relied on his natural talent for the game, and sometimes would rather play a game of tennis than work hard at the board. | | | In the next two years, his playing success again gained the right to challenge Petrosian. |

| | Boris Spassky - ChessOutpost Champion #1 |
| | Had Boris simply not allowed game 3 to be played on Fischer's terms, and simply requested the game be played under the rules agreed upon, I doubt another game would have ever been played. | | | Fischer arguing over money, playing conditions, not showing up for the drawing for colors....all these were a great insult to the game of chess itself, and to one of its greatest gentleman, Boris Spassky. | | | He put up with a lot of undignified behavior by Fischer, which culminated in him allowing Game 3 to be played in a private room when he had no moral or legal obligation to do so. |

| | Robert James Fischer vs Boris Spassky (1972) |
| | It is possible that Spassky had a tendency to overestimate the importance of a strong pawn centre, but the positional weakness that develops in the game seems very glaring - Boleslavsky is said to have called it 'positional capitulation'. | | | 2) it was Spassky, not Fischer, who chose to take the game into the Tartakower variation. | | | Both Geller and Spassky played this variation quite a bit. |

| | Boris Spassky vs Robert James Fischer (1992) |
| | Perhaps Spassky did play the better method of winning. | | | So, Fischer's attempt with 47...Nd8 to pull off a swindle might have been as good as any to try and salvage a draw out of this game. | | | I was wondering though could White strenthen his position first by positioning his white squared bishop on d3 and then go with the king via f3? |
