[Event "Varna Olympiad"] [Site "?"] [Round "0"] [White "Fischer"] [Black "Ciocaltea"] [Result "1-0"] [ECO "C70"] [Opening "Spanish: 4.Ba4"] 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 d6 5. c3 Bd7 6. d4 Nge7 7. Bb3 h6 { Black can't play 7...Ng6 because of 8.Ng5.} 8. Qe2 Ng6 9. Qc4 {A novel way of confusing the enemy army. 9...Be6 loses a piece after 10.d5 Na5 11.Qa4+, so Black must either play 9...Qe7, completely locking up his own kingside, or expose his queen on f6.} 9... Qf6 10. d5 b5 { Otherwise White just captures on c7 and gets away.} 11. Qe2 Na5 12. Bd1 Be7 13. g3 {Black would have done better to simplify with 12...Nh4 or f4, to get some space on the kingside. Fischer prevents that and sets a nasty trap as well.} 13... O-O 14. h4 Rfc8 {The losing move. Black had to play 14...Nh8 or Bd8 to save the queen, though things look grim then too.} 15. Bg5 hxg5 16. hxg5 Qxg5 { Black would do better with 16...Nf4, though it doesn't matter much, since after 16.gxf6 Nxe2 17.fxe7 Nc1 18.Kd2 he's down a piece.} 17. Nxg5 Bxg5 18. Na3 c6 19. dxc6 Be6 20. Qh5 Bh6 21. Bg4 Bxg4 22. Qxg4 Nxc6 23. Rd1 b4 24. Nc4 bxc3 25. bxc3 Nd4 26. Nb6 1-0
