Morphy was amazing -- a self-taught American who came out of obscurity to beat all the top players in Europe (where the highest standard of chess was back then) by putting a lot more attention on pushing the pawns. Anderssen was the reigning world champion, but Morphy beat him 7-2 (with two draws). The next truly home-grown American after him was not until Bobby Fischer. (Capablanca was a Cuban, even though it was merely a province of the US in his time.)

You might want to check your records regarding the Worlds highest chess standards back then. Due to the suppressive Colonial Powers of that era you can only surmise this statement. As this Game hailed from the middle East somewhere over thousands of years ago , you can only speculate that Europe had the best players. Recent history has taught me that as the Eastern Nations was the cradle of all western education, I'm very confident that greater chess players existed at the time but were not in a position to compete. All the same Morphy was a very good player , the best? We will never know for sure. Today's multimedia channels makes it very easy for the Greatest Minds to be exposed to the World. Back then only the wealthy excelled in exposing their talents.

They just hate everything and are poor miserable souls with not an ounce of goodness in their character. Some people have such unrealistically high expectations of good free videos, they nit-pick every perceived flaw. It doesn't really matter what other people think but it's whatever you like that's important. However, if you make videos for a living then it is important. Antonio generally gets greater than 99% likes so he is doing exceptionally well. He is bright, articulate and has a great command of chess analysis. I'm a fan of his videos and commentary.

wow this game was played 1858. That's incredible!

Plzzz do more n more fischer games... we woulf love to watch that 100 timeseach

Hi, OK I am getting old and my memory is not what it used to be. Morphy is the reason we now use clocks. Playing a match he opened with e4 and the response was d4. He played Nf3 and waited. and waited. The shadows moved across the wall and still he waited. Being very polite he held back as long as he could before finally asking "Excuse me are you going to move?" His opponent who was lost in a daze came too and asked "Is it my move?" And he then required clocks be used in future matches.

Great game !

A silent but deadly move! You're​ pulling my finger.

@9:55- 9:58 "After the match, Anderson said he wasn't really in shape, but okay, Morphy wasn't in shape either, he was drained by LiChess..." LiChess in 1858?!?!! --- what, did they use the telegraph?!? That WOULD be quite draining. Especially since the first Trans-Atlantic telegraph cable was shorted out that year, just one month after it was completed (which took 4 years!). The next transatlantic cable was finished 7 years later..... Can you imagine(?): "Waiting for opponent to Move...." ..... 7 years later... .......knight G to F3.... ... "Okay, Now what do you do here..."
