Beating chess computers

Chess computer programs are excellent at calculating tactics, so it's normally best to try to keep the position 'closed' when you play against them. However, if you are a pretty decent player and are quite brave you could try to play crazy moves to bamboozle the machine! They don't have any common sense so they don't see obvious dangers until it's too late.

Fischer Wins at Stockholm

Fischer Wins at Stockholm:

For unexplainable reasons, a player often loses his head and makes absolutely inane stupid moves only because his opponent's reputation. In the game shown here, Bobby Fischer, winner of the great Stockholm Interzonal Tournament of 1962, plays Black against Manuel Aaron from India. Black finds no weaknesses in White's defense and it seemed like the game was heading into a draw. Then suddenly, came 29.Rd2??, an unlucky blunder on White's part that loses the game quickly. One mistake is all Fischer needs.
