Najdorf, Pachman Tie In Argentina
“…Two defeats in the early rounds of the tournament prevented United States chess champion Bobby Fischer from finishing higher than a tie for third at 10-4 with Boris Ivkov of Yugoslavia.
Fischer, 15-year-old Brooklyn boy who took time off from school to participate, lost to Pachman and to Rene Letelier of Chile. In the latter game, published below, Fischer started out well, gaining a pawn through a sharp sacrificial combination. But the game drifted into a drawn ending. Evidently not satisfied with this conclusion, Fischer tried to win, miscalculated and surrendered a vital point.
