    I followed fischer bust to kings gambit 3. d6 a high class waiting move.The match was very evenly poised but managed to pull through a win.So fellas better to play kings bishop gambit rather than kings knight gambit as fischer would say kings gambit loses by force.

    Fezzik did spassky play kings knight gambit or kigns bishop gambit .Because fischer bust is applicable for only kings knight gambit even fischer won a lot of games playing kigns gambit after he published the refutation.But in all those case it is kings bishop gambit.

    White made more than one mistake above, so I wouldn't say this game is evidence of a bust.

    FEzzik the game was so close but still spaskky did refute fischer bust to some extent

    sure Fezzik have u read the fischer bust to kigns gambit?

    http://www.academicchess.org/Games/chessviewer/Fisherbustkingsgambit.shtml

     

    He says about the move d 6 "This is the key move to a troublesome postition, a high class "waiting move." At Mar Del Plata, 1959, I played 3. ....g5 against
    Spassky but this is inexact because it gives white drawing
    chances in the ensuing ending (see variation).  Another good
    try, but also inexact is the Berlin Defense starting with 3. ...h6
    (see 2nd variation).  Of Course 3. d5 equalizes, but that's all.

    Fischer bust

    And black wins. Of course white can always play differently
    in which case he merely loses differently.

    4.Bc4 is not White's only alternative. Most GM's don't play it now, as better lines have been found.

    Sorry, a mistake above ... most GM's don't play it now because they consider d6 inferior for Black and never give White the chance at his own inferior move of 4.Bc4.

    Yeah if a schisophrenic person like Fischer ever wrote something about anything, by all means keep reciting it like mantra.

    Refutations aren't based on a several-decade-old analysis and and 1700 rated game.
