Bobby Fischer was renowned for his opening preparation and made numerous contributions to chess opening theory. He was one of the foremost experts on the Ruy Lopez. The Ruy Lopez remains the most commonly used amongst the open games in master play. Due to the difficulty for Black in achieving equality, a common nickname for the opening is "The Spanish Torture".

    Spassky was old here. (first game) I still say Fischer should have played Botvinnik in Iceland and defended his world title against Karpov if he even beat Botvinnik. We have know way of knowing whether Fischer is really the 3rd best player behind Carlsen and Kasparov because he didn't play Karpov. As genius as he was at chess...we don't know where to put him in the rankings.
