@@vitakyo982 Clearly he was not not so good any more. Spassky was rated 2545 in 1992, outside of top 100. He won 5 games against Fischer .He wouldnt able to do that against 2700 + player. In 1992 there was only 4 2700 players in the world : Kasparov, Ivantchuk, Karpov and Shirov. Fischer performance rating in this match was 2645. Kasparov said Fischer strenght was between 2600 and 2650, which sounds right . His level of play was inconsistent, there were few good games , but also really poor ones. Even if he kept playing and training all these years, he wouldnt be so good, because he was 49 y.o. This match was not even close to their 1972 match. It was just : 2 formerly great players, who were way past their prime were earning lot of money from Yugoslav businessman. Good for them.
i find chess is not just about finding killer moves but also avoiding poor moves, so all those "why not" explanations are very useful for us 'OK' players wanting to become 'good' players, thank you!
My game has improved leaps and bounds by just watching your channel and listening to your commentary. Absolutely brilliant analysis as usual I thank you, Mato. I would love to play you sometime.
Fischer all the way. Aside from what James said, I also want to add that Fischer was largely self taught and never worked with anyone ,that included his training for the world championship match! Fischer's strongest tournament finishes, including his 6-0 whitewash against Taimanov and another 6-0 against Larsen, was lauded by Kasparov himself who wrote that no World Champion had ever shown a superiority over his rivals comparable to Fischer's "incredible" 12-0 score in the two matches. Simply put , What Fischer did was remarkable. His passion for the game was unmatched..While Lasker was a Mathematician, Smyslov an Opera Singer, even Kasparov a politician today, Fischer lived and breathed for the game and his universe resided purely within the 64 Squares of the Chess board. In his own words "Chess is life". Had he had access to chess engines and further knowledge of opening theory that arose in the last two decades, I believe could have shred anyone to bits in his prime , (26-28 yrs)
Mato your videos are just so awesome and inspiring...More than playing the game its better to watch your videos..the way of presentation is just awesome, especially the killer moves...BUT JUST ONE QUESTION...WHY DONT YOU PLAY FOR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP YOU SEEM TO BE THE BEST CHESS PLAYER AND MUST HAVE LEARNED EVERY MOVE BY NOW :)
Non sense!! I enjoy Mato's videos even better than any GM, I think Mato makes the videos enjoyable keeping it simple particularly with the famous "killing move exercise". GMs in general try to give you so many options and variants that makes the video boring , But from the competitive perspective I don't know if Matos can achieve a world championship, but that is not important.
Mato your videos are really great. I compare you to many great announcers who have had sayings they were famous for. Mel Allen (voice of the Yankees), "It's going, going, gone." Jimmy Lennon, "It's Showtime," Michael Buffer, "Let's get ready to rumble," and your "Killer move" and "What a game." I love it!
Mato! That was awesome! Would love to see more of your own games and analysis! Also some more puzzles please! I believe you had a great sequence with rooks some times back!! Thanks a million for taking the time to post these videos! I love your presentations! Entertaining and a valuable learning resource !!
many people that go to the top in their fields where intellectual capacity is king will crash and burn in spectacular fashion; if you didn't already know. a few I can think of off-hand, "walter breen" "stewie unger" "bernie madoff" "hunt brothers" "ted kaczynski" and many others. i agree it would be nice if they wouldn't self-destruct so severely. oh btw, great video mato. nice easy voice to listen to and great job showing the variations, often my favorite part of the videos!
I saw the K move after studying the other options of both K placements. After realizing the option you indicated I attempted to analyze forward but ran into such a complex wall of options that I was relieved to hit play.
Is this another match 1992? >:D Cuz you have a video Under tittle : "Champions Last Game : Boris Spassky vs James Robert Fischer" But still its nice to hear some new things from this one :D ^^
the reason fisher would win if carslon was in his time is because it's during his time that everything we know about chess today comes to light all of our opening moves now a days were mostly developed and made perfect by fisher of course that doesn't mean carslon doesn't have any creative skills it just means fisher was the first one to put move into actions but tbh i could see carslon coming up with this own tactics to counter fisher
was a special ocassion to bring Fischer to play chess again.A rich banker offered the prize money for this match.The real chess championships of today only have about 2 million to 1 and a half million dollars for both players.By the way,5 million dollars(of 1975!!!) were offered to the total stake of the 1975 world championship to Ficher and Karpov,but Fischer didn´t wanted to play profesional chess anymore.That´s a real shame.
Mato I accidentally hit the dislike button. I don't know how to undo that. I feel your videos on chess are some of the best. I truely appreciate your lesson on chess. I am very thankful for teachers like you. You are in deed a teacher. I find your way of teaching is very clear and to the point. Thank you for being who you are
Hi Mato, on 1:38s, when Spassky defended pawn on E5 with pawn on E6, Why didn't Fischer capture pawn on E5 with knight? After pawn takes knight on E5, queen on H5 - check - seems very strong, no?
Hi, I’m Captain Hindsight, and about 1650; so what better qualified player to tell Spassky what he should have done! ...No, but a little more seriously, I’m surprised Spassky followed a line that left him with an inert piece (KN); you’d think he would have planned deeper into the Spanish O, which I’m sure he knew is practically the only kind of Open Game Fisher considered worth playing after awhile. ...Still, 5 million dollars dangling over you head’s enough to distract a chess computer!
Hey Mato. I'm not very good in chess but when you said to pause video to find the winning move, I thought Rook to D1 was good since no matter what black plays, white wins a bishop. Would that still be a winning move? Thank you in advance for an explanation.
@@franciscogomezbasullas2169 thks for your reply but look we must understand one thing that when ordinary or amateurs say who is the g.o.a.t here personal bias or favourites is the way we think of but when top level GM's talk about the best then they do so after a proper assessment without prejudice but one thing everyone will agree about Morphy his power of visualisation his extraordinary memory and his ability to calculate many ahead the permutations and combinations involved it is simply mindboggling that's he is my all-time favourite thks
@@franciscogomezbasullas2169 morphy has magical games due to how bad his opponents were. I think you are new in chess I also thought morphy was the goat but the difficult the opponent the less chances you get to play king hunt. They defend soo well if you sacrifice you lose
And then Fischer turned 18 years old. Tal v. Fischer went 4 wins; 4 losses; and 5 draws.... Dead even. Most of Tal's victories and 2 draws came before Fischer was 18 years old.
Hi, could anybody answer a question for me? After white plays 25.Nf7 at 9:00, can't black play 25.Kd7 and if 26.Nxh8, then 26.Ke8? Isn't that move preventing white's knight from escaping? And then maybe if white's knight doesn't move from the corner, then can't black play g6 followed by Bf6?
Maybe there are better continuations, but I would go with Nd5, attacking pawn on c5. Then after c4, I would play Nc3, attacking the pawn again, and after c3 - Nb5 and Nd6. I think you will have troubles getting the knight without losing 1-2 extra pawns and not doubling the pawns on g-h.
I don't understand chess, well I do but... It's the theory of whoever shoots first wins in my opinion. Can you explain why being black has an advantage?
Fischer is a talented player . He is very aggressive player and prefer only sound sacrifices . If he was prepared like Magnus Carlsen or Kasparov he will win them by a score . I think the other excellent player is Tal and his health affect his attention and concenteration power and I think if he was in a good health ,he will crash every one on board
Why no knight takes e5 at 1:40. I've studied this and i always sacrifice the knight if its defended with kings pawn and open the queen check if he captures knight
Don't you think that's a little illogical?! Tal beat Fischer, Kasparov beat Tal, and Carlsen beat Kasparov, I'm pretty sure in a modern game Fisher would be destroyed as chess has evolved. Do you agree?
how does prize money for chess get that high? golf tournaments have a lot of sponsorship which makes sense because golf equipment is expensive, but how is there that much money in chess?
hi, this is mato, in this video, i'll show you a very expensive chess game
+Károly Jahn instructive :D
Really enjoy Mato's analysis. I really like how he gets to the point, shows you the possible variations in short compressed manner.
amen
One of the best moves by Spassky in this game was 21. ... resigns. I'm serious. All that calculation to see that it was lost is pretty good. :P
yeah man , if only i could see that far ahead i could end a loosing position early and start a new game with a little more experience under my belt
If you place Magnus in Fischer's time Fischer would win.
I agree sir MATO but if Bobby does not retire from 1972
What do you think now
i love the way you say black RESIGNED
Thank you for your comment
for 5million bucks, i would play it through.
nice.
+Dusty Hulk actually 1.65 million
Ikr, what if Fischer suddenly had a brain fart who knows, there's always a chance at anything
Owen Wu are you hearing yourself,fischer to have a brain fart,we both know its not possible,when it mattered fischer delivered
Yes, good point. Win or lose,you should get your money's worth.
My brain just melted
Wow..Fischer was still a beast after 20 yrs out of the pro scene
Yes , in 1992 , GM looking at the match said Fischer was still a 2700 + player ...

In 1972 after losing the first 2 games to Spassky (#2 by default) , Fischer went 7-2 (+5 -0 =4) in the next 9 games for a 7-4 lead.
Thanks for analysis waiting for more. İ am a social player and i cant belive a human can think this variations. Perfect.
Thank you
very impressive play and opening preparation by Fischer.

The alternatives to possible moves and their outcomes were way beyond me, and yet, I still love this game .....
Just 1 word. Beautiful.
Great analysis, Mato. Thank you!
FISHER was at his best. what a brilliant move.

Mato is an excellent presenter. I like his foreign accent and he moves at a good clip, not too slow or too fast.
Bravo mato ti si legenda najbolje igre
Hey Mato, you have to be the best in the e-verse!
Thanks. Keep up the good work!
I'm between 1000 and 1100 , been stuck there for awhile.
Hopefully watching these videos will give me a broader understanding, thank you.
May I ask, where do I calculate my rating? Or where did you?
Play on Chess.com
+Chris Arias That gives you no clue about your actual rating.
+Shourya Pandey whoops :3
I also have similar rating at chess.com, is it underestimated, meaning that my real rating is lower?
funny the way mato goes "mmmmmmm" thoughtfully
I've picked up the habit of going "hmmmmm..." when I see a surprising move because of him!

***** after 1. Qh5+ Ke7 2. Qe5 Be6 then what?
have you ever thought of uploading and analyzing one of your games maybe?
Watch more of his games. You will see why he's considered to be the best ever.

In Fischers hands the Ruy Lopez exchange was not an opening but a weapon

Well done on your part
oh boy oh boy xD .. best chess comments ever :D
no doubt thats trues cuz of Fischer developing most of modern days lines but what about into days world?
What if Fischer visited our time? Has chess changed that much in the last forty-some years?

So many combination moves in different variations in many dimensions. Fischer beats so slowly but surely.
Yes u can.. Just believe in urself
i dont care how "modern" the game is or will be. the squares and pieces wont change.Paul Morphy will always be #1.
this is how played greatest player of all time
Why no knight takes e5 at 1:40. I've studied this and i always sacrifice the knight if its defended with kings pawn and open the queen check if he captures knight
The analisiys is subtle.hope you play with agator
