It was great comeback, but was it flawed to start with? Meaning that she only won cause of shorts mistakes? It was only a 25min game I think, she might not have played so aggressively at the start if it was a long game, but thought due to the lack of time it was worth risking a crazy opening.

There was no come back. If you understand that then you understand her preparation for Nigels usual French defense. She prepared for his game. She sacked her pieces for position. He was taking bait. He needed a come back not her. If you understand what I just said then you understand her play and positional play. Look at Josh Waitkin. He was winning a game by position then he lost a rook, then he lost a queen... his dad is upset. "You were winning Josh, why'd you do that"? Can he make a comeback?.... Come back from what? Take the rook, take the queen, who cares the game is about check mate and Josh got that. That's what Judith saw too. That's what Fisher sees. There are no weaknesses or come backs in the wake of check mate. Josh and Fisher got board of the game, that's why they left, they knew the positions. Nigel would be rated as the top blitz player in the world. He allegedly met up with Fisher online. I don't remember the exact results but Nigel got blown away by about 8 out of 10 or ten out of ten. You could dig up a recording of a game on KZread. The other player didn't reveal his name but Nigel mentioned a date in time to the other player and within a second or 2 his opponent (most likely Fisher) responded with the name of a winning chess player from south America who Fisher may have had a match with. Fisher got board with chess opening theory. In his alleged game with Nigel, the opponent used a very irregular opening. It was original, creative and out of genius. He lost his queen, but did he make a come back? Come back from what? He was opening his position and pieces. Nigel never made a come back after taking those pieces and not playing position. Nigel played well but Judith played Nigel. Does Nigel know this yet? This defeat was a 2 edged sword because Nigel refuted women in the chess world. He arrogantly mocked them... she could have mocked him after this win, but she didn't, she didn't have to because she's better than him and this was the ultimate dagger. That game really tore him a new one as you understand the psychological build up to that match and his. He was a big balloon and she had a pin waiting to happen.

I just love he queen of chess, she has incredible insight into the game.

"People who celebrated too early: Chess edition"

This is strategic

This was great chess commentary

@9.48 the king cant go f8, because the white pawn is on e7 - where it moved to reveal the discovered check by the bishop. SHort's only move is to either block with the rook or the bishop on e6 but it only delays the inevitable. Very open game and Polgar showing why she is such a beast.

Enormous bouquet? It couldn't have been any smaller! I think bouquet just has to go with enormous. I bet the commentator wished he hadn't said that. Either that or he's never bought flowers for anyone :-)

Judith is fantastic

Cool game. After the opening I thought that this is already a winning position for black but then, to my surprise, all of a sudden white was much better. Judit - the best female chess player ever.

"Capturing the rook in the corner also looks completely winning." With the benefit of Stockfish, we now know that this line is actually drawn with best play. The only way to prevent Polgar's attack is to draw by perpetual check. Probably Polgar (and her team) prepared all this.

With the black queen down the bottom end short has too many queen moves to play, whereas polgar develops her pieces whilst pushing the black queen out of her half of the board.

Women can have the advantage because they are expected to lose so there is no pressure. No pressure can lead to a build up of confidence and demoralisation of the opposition in any sport or game. I know i played a bit of tennis and i can say the mental side is almost everything.

Short at his peak was ranked #3 in world, hardly "mediocre." Polgar's peak was #8. But I would agree that Short was a comparatively weak player historically AMONG WORLD CHAMP CANDIDATES, which is a lot different from "a weak player." Short in his video about how women allegedly are worse at chess mentioned as one possible reason that women may be "less aggressive" but Judit Polgar is one of the most aggressive players ever, she does not have that problem :) In this particular game it would almost look like Judit planned the whole game to cause that turnaround.. and maybe she indeed did have the ultimate formation in mind... except if Short had responded right, she never would have gotten there, she would have been dead. So she was lucky this game. I think if the colors had been reversed, Polgar never would have let Short survive white's bad opening, she definitely would have gone for the throat rather than merely saying "I'll win your rook." You never want to expose your throat to Judit Polgar, she's a total killer in those situations.
