Was Bobby Fischer the biggest sissy?

Was he such a sissy that he feared minority attacks, or was the typical QGD position not for him?

 

urk
Fischer played the Gruenfeld better than Kasparov ever could.
And look at that ...g5-g4 attack!
BronsteinPawn

Maybe he was just bad in 1957 and needed a pawn structure that gave him a clear plan?

BronsteinPawn

Why didnt he play the QGD, Black looks for equality first and later for the advantage. That is how chess works.

Thought you were done trolling BP?

 I am curious as why the hell if Fischer wanted a Grunfeld like position he didnt went for one by playing the Grunfeld.

Was 3.f3 against the Grunfeld a thing back in 1963? Was Fischer unaware of the option to fianchetto in 1963?

Fischer learnt Latin to read old chess books right?

I do blame him for being suspicious, also, Berliner should have destroyed Fischer in the game I posted. The central majority is dangerous. d5 was begging to be played.

the many old men ogling at his behind possibly thought so too

And what about his old days, would you kiss him in the cheek?

BronsteinPawn

He started playing when he was 8 and cried because at his club people called patzers "Fish" (it was a tradition, not a way to bully Fishcer lol). He started dressing well at around age 16 I would guess, so he didnt fix it quickly.

He got rid of that beard after he was rescued from Japan.
