Now I understand how Bobby Fischer played so well in his career. Not many people know this but he had an older brother who helped him throughout his chess journey. His name was Stock Fischer.

@@verasinha7863 Ok did he think the 13 year old would make a mistake and he'll beat him. I'd say he thought Bobby would miss play before he got to the mate. You don't want to lose. You don't want to lose to a so called child. Of course no one knew this was The Bobby Fischer at 13 who'd becoming probably the great chess player in history. If Bobby wasn't there were few in front of him. When you ask all the chess masters of today if they could play anyone in chess history. Who would it be. Hands down most say Bobby Fischer. He was a master at getting you to move the pieces he wanted you to move. If Fischer moved a piece and it looked like he was giving it to you and you took it you probably lost. Fischer gave pieces for a reason. He wanted you take that seemly blunder. Fischer did make mistakes. But they were few a far between. Between 1967-1972 I don't think anyone ever played better chess. He crushed everyone. He didn't just win. He crushed people. Winning 20 games in a row against GMs. I don't care who your playing. If you win 20 in a row against the people Bobby played it was impossible yet he did it. They should have been able to play to a draw somewhere along the line.

Fischer's favourite player was Paul Morphy. Fischer described him as the most accurate player who ever lived. Morphy also made chess look ridiculously easy, sacrificing pieces and pawns because he could see the mate at the end of it all.

One of Byrne's chess students related later why he played on: "First of all, you have to remember that in 1956 no one knew that Bobby Fischer was going to become Bobby Fischer! He was just a very promising 13-year-old kid who played a great game against me. When it got to the position where I was lost, I asked some of the other competitors if it might be a nice thing to let the kid mate me, as a kind of tribute to the fine game he played. They said, 'Sure, why not?' and so I did." - Tim Krabbé, Open Chess Diary (quoting Don Heisman)

levy puts out videos faster than stockfish can calculate the best move

Great vid Levi. I really like and appreciate how you make your chess analysis and insights accessible to the masses and all done with enthusiasm and charisma. I will point out that late in the game when the black bishop went to c5, on move 35ish, you had forgotten that it had already been fianchettoed early in the game, then had moved back to f8.

Great analysis. I wish you would analyze the Fischer Spassky games. I really enjoyed you explanations more than other videos I have seen on this game. Thank you

I would’ve blundered all of those baits that Byrne didn’t bite on. Crazy that someone can see so much and still get crushed, but Fischer was just on another level.

14:03 yes, the bishop moved, I remind you that black short castled earlier.

Glad you decided to cover this game. I first watched it nearly a decade ago when I was just getting into chess and it always stuck with me :) After 17...Be6, I was wondering if 18. Qxc3 would've been better than what Byrne played. After plugging the position into the lichess engine, it seems it IS the best move. That said, the position after 18. Qxc3 is still -8.5, despite black being up 5 points of material (1 bishop and 2 pawns) in this variation.

Your commentary of this incredible game rules!! Levy, you rock, maaaan.

I have to say that I'm really pleased with the recent increase in game analyses, keep up the good work!

Levy is right about the importance of a confidence boost you get when beating a stronger player. I'm currently rated 1400 (long time format) and recently beat a 1850 rated player, actually by far the highest rated player I was ever up against. It really put me in a different state of mind. I'm not scared to play say a 1500 rated player anymore because I know I can beat them. I'm more confident to make bold moves when before I'd try to play it safe.
