World Chess Championship
1970 Palma de Mallorca Interzonal Tournament
Highlights

Round 2 : Matulovic - Ujtumen
Position
after 51...Na4-b6

Round 2 : Smyslov - Fischer
Position
after 13...Qd8-f6

Round 3 : Fischer - Addison
Position
after 18.Nc3-e4

Did Fischer miss a mate in the following position? After all, 56...Rf2 mates, doesn't it? No, because the Black Bishop on b6 was in fact on e3. This 'oversight' stems from an error in Wade and O'Connell's compilation of Fischer's games, where 53...Bb6 was given instead of 53...Be3 as played in the game.
