Is there any plausible evidence that it was Bobby?
ResponderExcluirNigel Short himself once said he was "99% sure" it was Bobby Fischer.
ExcluirThat was due not only to the quality of the player's moves, but also to a "code word" that, according to Short, only Fischer would be aware of.
We will never know...
