Spassky and Fischer In Dramatic World Championship Game

The seventh game saw Spassky open with an aggressive pawn to king four, Fischer arriving three minutes late and steering the match into the Sicilian defense. Fischer, playing white, accepted a risky poisoned pawn sacrifice by Spassky, a move analysts call dangerous for the black side. Despite intense pressure, Fischer sacrificed his queen on move 28 and later resigned after three and a half hours, ending a remarkable display of championship chess.
