Robert Ris: "This week the chess world received the sad news that Robert Huebner passed away at the age of 76. In this F&F show I'd like to take a look at Robert Huebner's most important contribution to opening theory: The Huebner Variation in the Nimzo-Indian.
We'll have a closer look at some model games Huebner played and find out how his play inspired Bobby Fischer to win a crucial game against Boris Spassky in the 1972 World Championship match."
Exercise: How would you play here as Black?
