Today I am going to show you a really nice game which was played among Bobby Fischer and Tigran Vartanovich Petrosian in 1961.
Key Learning Points from this game:
1.Few ideas of Caro Kann Steinitz Variation for both sides.
2.White's rapid and complete development on move 10 after long castle.
3.White's prophylaxis ideas on move (14.Kb1,18 g3) which not only supports the a2 pawn but also getting rid out of any Qg5+ diagonal tactics.
4. White's understanding about the future endgame so he allowed Rxd1 check and allowed Black to take all the kingside pawns because he already knew that he can win in the queenside.
5.This game shows the power of pressure which Petrosian faced and made a horrible on the spot losing blunder with 35.Kc6.

Overall this game is an excellent example of powerplay of Bobby Fischer and shows his real strength that why Soviet players were scared of his game.
He was really a wizard in Chess.
