Bobby Fischer was a genius... modern day chess players have chess engines and different programs... Bobby didn't have that so he had to do things naturally

Bobby Fischer was right.

Bobby Fischer was awesome, crazy that he was only 13 that game, truly a genius.

Bobby would stay up all night with a flashlight and chess book studying under the covers so his mom wouldn't know.

For future reference. It's called a windmill

Those windmills are lethal

My dad went to school with Bobby when they were 6 y.o.. Bobby taught him to play and they were friends till they finished public school at age 13.

@@lellamas2778 . Its well documented. Plenty of books on Fischer's life starting when he was young.

Would like to see 2 games by Kasparov: 1) his “octopus knight” game vs Karpov & 2) his fantastic king hunt game vs Topolov. Cheers!

With all things being equal and Bobby having the same engines and books, he’s for sure the GOAT. Creativity and genius. He would beat Magnus most definitely.

Goat in my opinion

Amazing thank you

I do wonder if Fischer would have enjoyed chess in this era but I have no doubt he would have still been one of, if not the best.

No question he'd be an elite player

When Burns moved his bishop to Bg5, it was labeled a blunder and the commenter said he didn't understand what Burns was trying to do. It looks to me that Burns was prepping to move his e4 pawn up to kick the knight away on Nf6, leaving his bishop ready to take the pawn e7 and fork the queen + rook. That doesn't appear to be an oops tactic at all......

"Windmill"

Imo Fischer is the goat, he had a very sad life and suffered severe psychological abuse from his mother that lead to his eventual mental breakdown. His rematch against Spassky is proof of his genius. He won even after years away from the game and practice against top talent and he still won. Truth is he was much smarter than Spassky which is why he agreed to come back into the chess world albeit temporarily.

That game was brilliant combinatorily speaking, but not the best of BF at all, less the "game of the century". Fischer did deeper masterworks later in his career.

Fischer taught himself Russian to read Russian chess magazines. Imagine if he had access to engines to teach him.

The word you were looking for that exact set up is “windmill”. It was famously played by Emmanuel Laskar against Carlos Torre, 1925.

if you were to couple bobbys work ethic and intuitive genius with stockfish he would be rated a 3000 player in classical chess

Bobby didn't have coaches / 2nd players / computers / just old chess books and a brilliant chess mind....to beat the Russians in his time was huge as he had to beat entire Russian teams and the set-up's of the Russians to keep the championship in Russia...best way to make Kasparov angry....suggest or ask him if Bobby was better than him....really gets to Kasparov

The old Soviet grandmasters were amazing too A random top tier Soviet grandmasters would often provide commentaries and alternate lines for high level matches Decades later, Stockfish would prove most of their analysis to be correct

Morphy Tal Alekhine Kasparov had More beautiful games than Fischer! Fischer beat the weakest chess World champion Boris Spassky only 17 wins 10 losses! Capablanca would beat Spassky easily 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Carlsen would beat Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses! The highest tournament elo rating score is Fabiano Caruana 8,5/10 StLouis elo 3080! Karpov 11/13 Linares 1994 elo score 3040! Fischer his best tournament score only 2990! Karpov has won over 160 super grand Master tournaments! Fischer won zero! Fischer won only interzonals 1962 1970! Fischer was Second in Santa Monica 1966 behind blunder maker Spassky! Fischer did not won Havanna 1965! How Fischer beat Carlsen Karpov Kasparov these are 100xtimes better than Awful blunder maker Spassky! Fischer Lost 5 times against awful blunder maker Geller! Carlsen 1000xtimes better than Geller! Carlsen would win 30 times against Fischer easily because Spassky won 10 times against Fischer!!

Holy shit I did not know you guys had a chess channel!!!

Thanks for this video. I've seen this games many times before, but never with this very interesting modern day computer analysis.

How about picking one or more of his best games in the 1972 championship match? He was at the peak of his ability then.

Definitely will do plenty more Fischer games

It’s called a windmill

I believe it's called a Windmill Attack

To me it was the best game. Because it’s not about accuracy but the attack and defence of 2 human brains. Chess engines would never be able to do a queen sacrifice like that and also to attack so beautifully afterwards!!

karpov didnt pass fischers rating until 1992 twenty years later than fischers peak rating

Fischer was not eaven close to what he was in 1972

Windmill

It's either that or Deontay Wilder finishing a dazed opponent.

He won too often to be anything except great.

It sounded like you said black could win whites e pawn if he had played Qa4 early on. I have a feeling you were wrong about that.

at 3:30, why not show us what happens if white takes the knight? i think i can see how black would regain his piece, and win a pawn, but still ...

Thank God he didn’t have an engine 😂
