    I knew William Lombardy well. I still have a reference letter that he wrote for me for my resume.

    @@chessdawg Yeah, he was an interesting dude. He was a tragic figure though, sadly. He had it tough being in the shadow of Fischer. Man, he used to talk a lot. I mean a lot. We used to go to Rockaway Beach and he'd talk and talk, mostly about himself being one of the few chess prodigies, the women in his life, his issues with chess and having no money. Fascinating stories.

    Once again a very educational game. The transition to a won pawn ending is instructive.

    I'm surprised Lombardy didn't resign after the black b6. It was clear that Black would get the distant passed pawn and nothing could be done about it.

    Perfect explanation. But, I'd rather people refrain from saying "every other" as it is ambiguous. How about "any other" or "all other" squares.

    Love the clear plan and seemingly basic pawn and king endgame. Maybe things were different back then but after a5, it would be unseemly for a GM not to have resigned immediately if this game happened today

    Nice game, but the video title is misleading. For those who wanted to know, the secret to chess success is: be Magnus Carlson.
