Trailing now by 5-3, Boris Spassky took a time out for game 9. It became clear that he was having difficulties with Bobby Fischer’s constant psychological pressure, both on and off the board. After each move, Boris Spassky left the stage and disappeared into the wings. Bobby Fischer plays a tactic game and sacrifices a Pawn in return for a better central attack that later evens up the game. This
ninth game, the shortest draw in the match, ended after only twenty
nine moves. |
