What was Bobby Fischer's opening repertoire?

Does any one know what Bobby Fischer's opening repertoire was? I'm trying to play exactly how he did.

Trying to exactly mimic his repertoire is not the answer.  His knowledge of theory way exceeds yours, and no two people are exactly alike.  My repertoire has overlap with S.Kasparov, Anand, Emms, Petrosian, etc, along with many others.

The other thing to keep in mind is that Botvinnik and Spassky were pretty much the pioneers of the concept of the "Universal Player".  Pretty much every world champion after Spassky are all universal players, so there is no straight and narrow repertoire.  As the following URL shows, he played the Nimzo-Indian as Black, he played the Grunfeld as Black, he played the King's Indian as Black, and those are just the things he played the most against 1.d4.  He has played many other openings and defenses as well.

Hi,

This might be relevant:

I got a book in the early '60's called "The greatest chess games" (or something to that effect) and spent a lot of time with the Greco opening etc. Then, as I grew up I studied Alekhine and Casablanca (books) and finally Fischer's greatest games and subsequently attained my hero's which I still have. Today, I will use what I learned as a child....it stays with you. Advice: the Greco and other obscure openings are relevant if your opponent isn't ready for it. Sometimes I make a move that is nonsensical just because I know that my adversary will spend three days trying to figure it out! And (I'll add) do something to combat silliness lol

Played 1.e4 as White, although he made fair bit of adjustments to his repertoire as time went by. He was a devotee of the White side of the Ruy Lopez.

Played the Sicilian Najdorf against 1.e4, if his opponent allows it.

He also went for some sort of King's Indian Defense against non 1.e4 openings by White.

What he played *most* was usually e4 with white.

Ruy lopez, a few things against the caro kann including the two knights and exchange, Nc3 against the french (he had troubles with the french defense), austrian attack against the pirc, fischer-sozin attack against najdorf, mainline against dragon, as far as other sicilians I don't know.

As black, he played the najdorf and king's indian, he played the grunfeld once in a while too.

Trying to mimic his repertoire will not give you his aggressive attacking style of play, just so you know.

In Wade and O'Connell's "The Games of Robert J Fischer", there's an introductory chapter on Fischer's repertoire. If I recall, it says something like: With white, Fischer played classically, and with black he played defences that gave him counterchances. The book also discusses Fischer's repertoire eg Ruy Lopez and Sozin as white against Sicilian. Najdorf, KID as black as well as other openings.

Yes, this pretty much sums it up. He did, however, on occasion stray from his repotoire - you can find examples of this on a database, for example

Interesting because I do know for sure that Fischer did NOT "always" play the Ruy Lopez.  He was known to play the Evans Gambit in skittles/exhibition games, and played the White side of the Two Knight's Defense against GM Bisguier in the 1963 NY State Championship.  I'm sure you/others can find other examples.

Bobby Fischer was really good at the Sicilian Najdorf: poison pawn variation

Early in his career Fischer as Black often played the Ragozin variation of the Queen's Gambit Declined (although he frequently transposed into it from a Nimzo move order), and he stuck to it with a dedication worthy of a better move. Eventually he adjusted his repertoire and more-or-less gave up playing the Ragozin.

"... A typical way of choosing an opening repertoire is to copy the openings used by a player one admires. ... However, what is good at world-championship level is not always the best choice at lower levels of play, and it is often a good idea to choose a 'model' who is nearer your own playing strength. ..." - FM Steve Giddins (2008)
