How to Play Chess Wisely. Keres vs Westerinen
The principles of positional chess are well-known, and it doesn't take much wisdom to keep them in mind and apply in practical games. What is really wise is the ability to spot the positions, in which these principles are irrelevant. The peculiarities of some positions might require breaking the conventional principles in order to find the strongest move. In this game Paul Keres breaks the opening principles by moving the already developed piece for the second time, while his other pieces are still not developed. As a result Keres falls behind in development, but still dominates the whole board and creates an attacking masterpiece.

Thank you for your support.
51 years later, at the age of 80, Heikki Westerinen is still playing. He is rated around 2200 and drew against a FIDE-master in the Finnish Championship League last Saturday.
Your analysis has great effect. That's why I like this channel.
Great chess game by Paul Keres with wonderful commentary, deserve to get two thumb up
Great Analysis!
Keres is my man of the week and you too...
Beatiful, typical Keres attacking atyle!
knight f7 3 times really hilarious ❣
I've been a dedicated follower of your channel for several months now, consistently recommending it to fellow players I come across. I must say this is one of the best matches I've ever seen, and probably the best just after the legendary match between Mikhail Tal against Alexander Tolush. Additionally, I stumbled upon some chess games played by the brilliant Russian author Lev Tolstoy a few weeks ago, and it was a delightful experience witnessing his unique playing style. I understand this might deviate from your usual format, but I would be very eager to see you bringing some of his matches to this channel! Best wishes from Portugal!

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. I've read some of Tolstoy's works, but haven't seen his chess games yet. I might make a video on his games in the future.
Beautiful chess ❤
Superb!
Great wisdom indeed. I'll go watch more of Keres's chess.
A very fine game by one of the finest players. And you make great videos!

My pleasure.
Another fun game and great analysis. Would you also consider showing some of young Kasparov's games? For example, Kasparov vs Palatnik (1978, Daugavpils URS)

Thank you for your kind words and suggestion. Yeah, I might do it in the future.
You deserve a kiss every time you post a video 💋
Bosh!
At 12:20, even Bf4 was good, maybe better.

Is it from Stockfish? What is the line after 17...Be5? It is difficult to see why this is going to turn out better than the immediate d6.

@@zelandakhniteblade5436, no, I thought of it. Assuming that Bf4 is 17 and black goes Be5, then take the bishop and the next move you have a free knight. I don't know what you wanted to say with d6, it was already played. I was wrong, anyway. Black could simply play Na6 and white doesn't have Nc7.
My advice to anyone trying to be great at chess: Be born a genius. And then youre gonna want to have smart, loving parents that see your genius and start you playing at a young age. And finally, stop chocking the chicken aka flying solo aka beaten the meat aka agitating the whacked up oversized one-eyed wonder weasel.
Keres should have been the chess champion, not Botvinik! It's a real shame for such a brilliant player.
