    For those wo don't understand Dutch I translated dr. Euwe's analysis on the end of the video: "Let's consider the match Fischer - Spaski in its whole... There's a remarkable difference between the first ten games and the last ten. In the first ten Fischer won with a score of 6.5 - 3.5, actually 6.5 - 2.5 , because Spaski got one point because of Fischer's absence in the first game, he didn't show up namely. So after these first ten games my idea was that Fisher would swipe Spaski. But loooking at the result of the last ten games, there it simply was 5 - 5, both players won an equal amount of games plus eight draws; no agreed draws but truely well fought draws. What conclusion can pull out of that. And I believe that this conclusion has been made before: Spaski needs time to adjust to his opponents before he can be able to play at his full strength. This was clearly visible in this match. With this in the back of our minds, Spaski might have a better chance in an eventual rematch against Fischer. Of course we don't yet know if such a revenche match will ever take place. anyway there are many rumours about such a match and Fischer would also be interested in it. On the other hand it's still to be seen if Spaski would want this, or if his chess organisation is not against it. They are quite bittered and upset about Fishers protests during the match. But as we learned from the arbiter, both players didn't really suffer much of these protests during play, let alone that Fischer showed up late on a few occasions. But in the end, that was in his own disadvantadge, since it was on his own clock time. All together, I believe Fischer deserved the victory, but if they'd play again Spaski would do much better, nevertheless he was a worthy opponent even in this match."

    Sorry Max but you caved into the Soviet demands and that's why the Fischer v Karpov match never took place.
