Even though it's just one game, I'm surprised that a Chess computer in 1977 had a pretty decent accuracy against Fischer's very high accuracy.

Interestingly, the one inaccuracy Fischer makes was actually when castling. Maybe he did not evaluate correctly that the endgame was equal after that h3 move! Instead I found (with the help of Stockfish) that he should have given a check on h4 and after g3, he can park his queen on h3 to prevent white from castling there. It can be chased away with Bf1 but then jt drops back to h5 and the queen remains a pest there

jerry all you do is make great content

Wow! Fisher did played against an engine before Kaspa!!! That's good history! TY GM!

Thank you Jerry!

I found an endangered, ChessNetwork species video in my notifications today. Score! 🍿

Speaking of computers, it turns out Stockfish 15 can now solve that one famous chess puzzle that gave engines problems (you made a video on it 10 years ago). It solves it after 1 billion nodes (a minute or two on my laptop). I’m not sure if an online version will cut it for the depth required though.

I played against that program in 1976 when I was a sophomore at MIT. I used a terminal of the Delphi computer lab to access it, late one night. I beat the program by pushing a pass pawn and queening it. At that point most of the pieces were gone. We were even for almost the whole game. It appeared to me that Greenblatt's program was ignoring my pawn pushes and was fixated on its own end game strategy. It took several hours to complete the game because very little cpu time was allocated to it. I think I started playing at 9:30 PM and finally won around 4:00 AM. About 5 years later, I met Richard Greenblatt and told him I had beaten his program. He was impressed. I have never played competitively. However, I have beaten one or two strong players in my time. The Greenblatt chess program I played against was not as strong as Fischer's version.

Jerry by far the best chess content

Have to hand it to Black very strong play so much for white having the advantage that weak pawn that was moved early to protect the other pawn did end up as a negative as you stated nice work by the Bishops

Hi Jerry, I like a lot your material and it really has helped me on a lot of matches. But I wonder, could you do a video explaining how to analice the moves you do on a game? For example the 2 previous videos where you played balck and white with the queens gambit you illustrate the way you analice what piece to move and why and its amazing how you seem to predict your opponents moves and intentions. How do I learn to do that? Could you make a video on that particular matter ? How to move correctly and congruently with what is happening on the board. Thanks again for you great material, sorry for any misspellings

It’s fun how Fischer plays the late endgame, he wants the full queen as you say, he wants to end the game asap, perfectionist mentality. Its like saying to the white rook, you should have taken the passed pawn when you could, now that you havent done it, you will never be able to. Yeah I think he must have thought the computer should have resigned before, he could have played Bf3 + and queening in the next move and he chose to give the check in h3 winning the rook, not sacrificing the bishop, I think he wanted to teach white rook a lesson. Very nice analysis as always. Thank you

Interesting. Thanks. How do you (or anyone reading this) make arrows appear on your (an) instruction board?

I often play ..g6 against 1.e4; then 2.d4 Bg7 3.Nf3 c5. After all, I'm gonna want to play c5 at some point, so if I can get away with it why not here? Got a lot of flak on my chess club, but it's good to see Fischer doesn't consider it bad ^^

Always enjoy Jerry's content, but I only have the patience to play it at 1.25x 😊

Deflections are extreme poison.

Such a classy finish, making sure he won with a queen on board

The knight is poison good point had me laughing 😂

I believe it was actually called Mac Hack, according to Wikipedia

I am convinced Fischer's accuracy is underrated. The apparent inaccuracy is due to his probing GREENBLATT.

Bobby Fischer circa. 1977 would have bashed Deep Blue 6-0

Like Done Host

At around 14:30 Jerry asked what now? I have watched many Bobby reviews and I call it putting your brain into Bobby mode. I have seen him many time id the undefended piece in the camp of his nemesis and immediately seek it with abandon and kill it. Bobby mode. Here not so. This is what they call a situation?

Extremely well done. I am not an overly polite guy and thus rarely would I say this type of thing. Good job.

Still caspro and his student magnus rules.

Computers can do anything. They are only limited by us. If they are failing at anything it’s not the computer’s fault. It’s our inability to write the correct instruction set.

Same content in half the time. Tempo!

There is no reason to disregard the notion, yet, machines are unable to play high quality chess, as their are own positions they cannot solve. The notion humans can play high quality chess can definitely regarded as false.

@@Tinil0 I honestly don’t know how else to put it but to fully answer your question I’ll need to write a small book and include a lot of analysis. On the other hand if I’ll give you a short answer it may not explain anything to you. I’ll try to sum it up but I don’t know if I I’ll be successful: First of all, my main point is the comparison between the three possible basic set-ups and their corresponding variations. Those being: 1) a regular Sicilian after 3…cxd4, 2) a Benoni style structure after 4.d5 and 3) 4.dxc5. 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 g6 3. d4 Bg7 3) 4. dxc5 after 4… Qa5+ 5. c3 Qxc5 white is already doing amazingly well. Black’s queen had to move twice and is positioned directly where white can develop whilst further attacking it thus gaining time so even 6.Be3 is perfectly fine. The Bg7 is attacking granite because the c3-pawn is doing a good job. White has open lines everywhere and more space. This is a very simple case of white being better and black literally has zero “compensation”. Black has no tricky ideas, no counter attack, no initiative, nothing whatsoever. However, to demonstrate just how bad it can get let’s continue with 6.Na3! This seemingly innocuous move is actually amazingly tricky to meet. If black just wants to continue developing in normal Sicilian like manner whilst disallowing e4-e5 he may very well choose 6…d6 where we can immediately see why white is so much better (and in fact the computer engine already gives this position a +1) after the continuation 7.Nb5! (Threatening Be3) and here an idea variation to demonstrate my concept can be seen after 7… a6? 8. Be3 Qc6 9. Na7! (Another idea in the structure is 9. Ng5! axb5?? 10. Qb3 threatening both Qxf7+ as well as Bb5 1-0) 9... Qc7 10. Nxc8 Qxc8 11. Qb3 Nf6 12. e5 dxe5 13. Nxe5 O-O 14. Nxf7 Rxf7 15. Bc4 1-0 2) 4.d5 for all pragmatic reasons makes playing the Sicilian defeating the very purpose. White kept the central duo, it will be harder for black to play Nc6, white has more space and most importantly this is a somewhat Benoni structure (Benoni: 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 c5 3. d5 g6 4. Nc3 d6 5. e4 Bg7 6. Nf3 O-O 7. h3 a6 8. a4 Nbd7 9. Bd3) where white has been theoretically proven to be winning. So it could continue with: 4…d6 (4... Nf6 5. Nc3 with a favourable Pirc like / Modern like structure) 5. c4 trans-positioning back to a Benoni. In comparison to the two variations and their corresponding structures mentioned above, the normal Sicilian after: 1) 3…cxd4 (which will result in an accelerated (hyper) dragon Sicilian) is simply far far far more beneficial to black. I’m not going to go into AD theory but the mere fact that black has a game and has counter play should be sufficient to understand why it was better. For instance, after 3… cxd4 4. Nxd4 (4. Qxd4 Nf6 5. e5 Nc6 where black has the usual Sicilian counter play) 4... Nf6 5. Nc3 (5. e5 Qa5+) 5... d6 and we’re back in Sicilian land.
