The story revived in the Olympiad in Leipzig in 1960. In the Letelier – Fischer game was a protagonist on the chessboard: the Black Queen. She sent her Rooks forward to raise the White King from his throne, from f2 to e3.
As it happened in that moment made her appearance the Black Queen in the last move of this game. Behold! Here is the game without analyzing:
That 23… Qxf4+ was the last move because the White King might select two ways: or takes the Black Queen on f4 (when accepts the allurement), or walks away to f2. (to e2 isn’t good on account of double attack: Nd4+)
After 24. Kxf4 next Bh6 checkmate. After 24.Kf2 next 24… Ng4+ 25.Kg2 (for Ke2 loses the bishop) Ne3+ 26.Kf2 Nd4! And White loses the bishop and the game.
How nice performance from a Black Queen and from a 17 years old young man!
