Can you find better moves for Byrne and Fischer? Qoute this comment!
Fischer is incredible
Might be my favourite game ever. The Opera house game is the only one that comes close. I know more modern game like Kasparov's immortal are objectively better. But this romantic chess is so fun.

True, 11...Na4 is brilliant. I'm just pointing out that the comment can be misunderstood.
How has this Game of the Century held up to computer analysis?
I still think it's a great game in any case...

Not much has changed. 11.Bg5? is still labelled as a blunder, which is no news, and 14...Qb6 (initially decorated with a couple of exclam marks) is actually less effective than the simple 14...Qd5. Luckily for all Fischer opted for the former, else the game would have ended as a routine & simple technical win.

Can u explain me my question?
The queen had to go there to press e7-else Bg5 would be completely pointless.
And anyway, white's problem was not the placement of his queen, but rather the placement of the king! 11.Be2 should have been played, when white has a typical slight opening edge.
