Anyone can find a flashy tactic, but only the true masters can squeeze out a win from the smallest differences. What a game :D

Anyone can find a flashy tactic huh? I hope it's true, one day I will be good enough!

No jerry... there are never too much pop quizzes!

What a fantastic game by Botvinnik! He is my idol with his instructive and theoretical game style! I would like to see more Botvinnik games in this channel. Thank you so much!

Never in my life would I have thought of forcing the rook back to F8 before retreating. Thank you for explaining why that was a key move. Good stuff

@@mizofan compared to Tal’s flashy aggressive play, which won in 1960, Botvinnik’s style is seen as positional and boring by many. But I think he is very underrated among chess champions.

Great game, excellent commentary. Thanks Jerry. I appreciate how you pointed out all the little details -- these are definitely things I'll have to keep in mind for my own future games. The details (making your opponent waste a tempo, getting the rook back to cut off the king, IDing good knight squares) were excellently pointed out!

A positional and instructive game. Prof. Mikhail Botwinnik played the game faultlessly against his great opponent.

Rewatching this because I liked it so much the first time. I really love this game, a super instructive game that I would miss the reasons for a lot of the moves - but knowing them makes me excited to play and think much deeper about restricting the other player rather than material advantage. Thank you Jerry for being an incredible teacher!

Fantastic review and very strategic. Thanks

This is one of my favorite games you ever posted. Like you said it is not flashy but sooo instructive. Very good game, analysis and comentary!

While I do appreciate all the chess instructors here on youtube, I find most of them talk too fast and too much for my tastes, sometimes even repeating themselves. No sense of calm. You stand alone in your flawless delivery and calm demeanor which makes a real contribution to spreading understanding of the game. That along with your thoughtful choice of games and other fine attributes, which others have mentioned, make you a real gift to the chess world. Thank you.

Beautiful game! I really enjoy these positional games with the thought process commentary, as I feel that the more tactical games are shared way more often. Thank you for sharing!

What a beautiful game. Love these positional ones. Also so glad you're doing a bunch of analysis again Jerry! Other channels have their strengths too but I love your style of analysis, it's so instructive and entertaining.

Wow. Not only was this an incredibly instructive game, i felt your help and promoting to find the best move, along with your deep analysis and evaluation were very helpful! I started watching this channel around a year ago now and with your help along with a few other channels and constant playing on chess.com and lichess.org I have gone from an 800 rated player to now being just over 1700 rated. Thankyou for your help! You are inspiring and educational Jerry!

This is so deep. Position and strategy play more of an important role it seems than fancy tactics.

Very Nice and Instructive Game. Especially the End Game of how to place your and obstruct opponent's pieces.

I've watched this video at least two times. Each time I watch it there is something new to learn. Eye opening.

wow, a very instructive game and analysis, thanks!

beautiful game, great analysis thank you Jerry

Brilliant analysis. I learnt a lot from this analysis. Thank you, Jerry.

Really appreciate the clarity of your commentaries, Jerry. For us not-so-strong players you concisely explain the reasoning behind each move, allowing us to learn valuable lessons. Too many commentators rush through complicated games too quickly for the relative strengths and weaknesses of each position to be recognised, thereby failing to be properly instructive.

Thanks Jerry, you are my favorite KZreadr , I am learning a lot from your content, really appreciate it, thank you😊

That position with the two rooks on the two empty files, beautiful!

Nice analysis!!

excellent analysis man

What a great video!

Wow. Such an amazing and instructive analysis. This channel features the best instructional videos. Deep, accurate, to the point analysis, without the frequent but ultimately boring and stalling humorous chit-chat so many teachers seem to resort to. I see now that most of my positional thinking in chess is largely correct but my mind is too compartmentalized. I just tend to focus on what I consider "star" pieces, i.e. the ones that are directly involved in whatever is at stake and overlook other pieces that may have an impact if activated - not because I don't know they can be moved, but in the midst of the chaos and analysis, unwittingly and unwillingly, I just deem then irrelevant. This flaw of mine goes very far unfortunatly and it makes me blunder a lot of times. I just fail to look at the chessboard as a whole.

Masterful technique on display in this game. It's hard to fathom how much different the game of chess would be if Botvinnik had stuck with his "official" job.

I haven't played chess since I was a kid so I'm really bad at it, but once in a blue moon I guess a pop quiz and it makes me soo happy lol

Fruitful chess lesson. Thank you Jerry.

wow great analysis thanks Jerry

Great video

I don't really play but I still love your videos. Thanks!

Very nice to see a game where there are no flashy tactics but just a steady growing advantages, with good and solid play. This is the kind of play that makes you a better chess player

Man, very technical indeed

Wow so interesting n instructive I can feel my elo going up

Amazing videos :)

Great commentary

If Capablanca hadn't gotten the nickname 'The Chess Machine' I'm sure Botvinnik would've gotten it. Dude wasn't flashy (though he could pull some serious tactics when they were presented), just super-solid, a tough nut to crack.

Botvinnik really is 1 of my all time favourite chessplayers.. I think I have learned so much more from watching his games than from watching Tal's games to name 1 of the big shots out there. Being a tactical player myself I felt like I needed a more positional approach to the game and then I found Botvinnik...ge just makes it look so simple.

You are an excellent analyst!

I know you meant this as a compliment, but I truly dislike these types of comments, or rather, conclusions. People nowadays really need to stop drawing such intimate conclusions based on nothing else but Internet posts and online interactions. I know you're filling in the blanks with your imagination and the information he shares in these videos, but that's exactly the point. These are (quality) chess videos and nothing more, they're not a window into this man's personal life, beliefs, and moral compass. You don't know how it would be like to have this person as a father because you don't actually know him. Maybe his kid(s) don't/wouldn't like playing chess at all, but he's forcing them to do it because he likes chess so much, and for them, it's a nightmare. Not saying this is the case, of course. I'm just "filling in the blanks" see? This attitude really needs to stop and people should judge, consume, appreciate and enjoy Internet content for what it is. Internet content.

Hi Jerry, Thanks for the upload. Learned a lot from this video. Question: what is the name of the user interface you employ for your analysis?

Botvinnik did actually win some games against Alekhine, actually having a lifetime even score against him. Can we see games where Botvinnik wins?

This game is an excellent example of grinding.

Great Bot vinnik😁🗿

Nice video

What an analysis

I feel like people trade pieces they don't need to just alleviate tension. 😂
