Not when you are Judit. Lol she calculated many moves ahead and reasoned why he could never take the queen or rook. Amazing stuff to slip out and then the rook sac had to be even more amazing to have that level of craftiness.

@@mattparks747 Yeah. I think that when I would have see the Rook move rather than the Queen, I'd think "wait, where is the trap ?"... But god, I'd never spot that as Black, too busy panicking.
@@michalbotor Meh, there's a much simpler winning idea. Qc2 Kh3 leads to Qf5+ which forces a queen trade. Black being up a bishop should be completely winning. The engine wants to maximise it's advantage, but even a novice like me can find winning ideas in the position.
Please not. There are many legendary players that deserve a Saga much more than her. I know it's women's day and all, but that doesnt mean you should be unreasonable.
#suggestion I think it would be interesting if you covered the Sack Of Rome in 1989, where the young 14 year old Sofia Polgar went on a rampage proceeding to defeat multiple grandmasters and consequently winning the tournament. It shocked the chess world and according to the New In Chess magazine, her performance rating was an astounding 2879, one of the greatest consecutive performances of all time. Considered by many to be one of the greatest chess performance in history, it would be pretty interesting to see you cover it. While Sofia's sisters, Judit and Susan ultimately became better chess players, i think Sofia deserves more credit.
I just discovered your channel. As a Class B tournament player (prior to a stroke), I could have really used your insightfulness. Judit Polgar is a favorite of mine (All the Polgar sisters are an inspiration) and I miss seeing her play. Thank you for posting. I still play, but instead of tournaments, I play friendly games with a furniture shop owner I this handcrafted set on a handcrafted table with inlaid board. Magic.
Judit Polgar’s attacking style of play and the really amazing out-of-left-field moves that she comes up with .... I was just thinking that Tal is about the only other player I’m familiar with who invents such complicating and devastating moves when that was exactly what Agadmator said .... as they say, Great Minds.. haha !! Another great game & great ' analysis, thanks.
12:23 this checkmate pattern is called "The swallow's tail mate" which is a beautiful name Edit: ah shit my knowledge of chess is worse than my chess, it's actually the "Dovetail mate"
I’m over here like... “ok if the rook takes the bishop then the queen can take the rook but wait??”. And it was in this position that I realized I will never know to resign to a 13 move checkmate pattern.
The way I remember the 10:30 checkmate pattern is by remembering that the queen has the ability of the rook and bishop but not knight so if she is next to the king and the knight squares are covered it's checkmate.
There is a very important point that should be made about this game. Greenfeld was 25 at the time of the game and one of the top 100 players in the world and Judit had only recently turned 13! (The picture of her on the screen may lead viewers to assume she was older). This was not Judit’s first time beating a top 100 player. Already at the age of 11, she beat GM Lev Gutman who was rated world #73 in the world that year. Not only was Judit beating top 100 players by the age of 13, she was already a top 100 player herself - a distinction she achieved at the age of 12 (when she was rated #55 in the world) - younger than anyone else in history. For comparison, Magnus Carlsen was 15 when he first entered the top 100, Karjakin (the youngest GM ever) was also 15 when he first entered the top 100, as were child prodigies Alireza Firouzja and Wei Yi. Kasparov was 16 when he entered the top 100 as were Kramnik and Fabiano Caruana. Shirov was 17. Anand did not break the top 100 until the age of 18, the same age Ivanchuk and Ding Liren were when they entered the top 100. Karpov was 19. Levon Aronian was 20 as were Boris Gelfand and Hou Yifan. Other celebrated child prodigies like Praggnanandhaa (age 15) and Nihal Sarin (age 17) have never broken the top 100. Korchnoi and Fischer were just joining their first chess clubs at the age of 12. (Akiba Rubinstein still didn’t know how to play chess). But Judit was already ranked #55 in the world at that age. Judit Polgar is not only the greatest ever female player, and one of the greatest attacking players ever, she was far and away the greatest 12 year old chess player ever. Happy International Women’s Day.
wow! no way! 😮 finally we have another game from judit "the queen of chess" polgar on this channel. 🤗 i hope that this means that her saga, that i have been asking you for many times before, is definitely coming next on this channel! 😍 long live queen! 😊
this game is very impressive, not only that Judith didn't touch the queen for a good half of the game, but she was one step from checkmate many times and she didn't care, she just continue her attack, very impressive !
@@basesixty6739 Exactly, Judit Polgar is a great example of a good chess player and I would like to see more of her games. Before you ask, I would also like to learn more about other great female chess players.
Thanks for showing this great game! Judit's games are such attacking treasures... I hope you show more games from the "female Tal" sometime. Maybe a Judit Saga!? #suggestion #saga
Fischer must not have ever seen Judit before making that statement, and it's a good thing for women everywhere that other women have since! She is extraordinary even for a man and a great inspiration to all! Gg, and she's very good at defense as well (that's the trick, imo), utilizing pieces at their maximum potential and without overworking them too, combining both, especially at high levels. thx, great coverage as usual too!
#suggestion Games like this could seduce your audience to demand the Judith Polgar Saga, Antonio. After Queens Gambit, her story is so important to be told. Also, I think, she would make a great guest... ...imagine her on on your podcast twice, second time with Anya T-J...
I have to say I've recently in the last 3 years got back into chess watching every tournament I can generally on this site but I never took any notice of Judit ... she is the grandmaster slayer... she is devastating and my only worry would be did these GM's not take her so seriously initially because she is an absolute beast when it comes to attacking... overnight became my favourite player of all time ... she is relentless....
Really beautiful game, the queen hanging just waiting to be captured by the pawn and then the queen being saved by a possible mate, was just amazing, I've never seen an attack in which the strakes were that high so early in the game.
Here's a different idea, Antonio: there's a play from 1624 by Thomas Middleton called "A Game at Chess". Each character is a piece and everything that happens in the story is a move. How about an analysis of that match? #suggestion Huge fan of your work!
Antonio, love your channel! can you please cover Dewa Kipas vs Gotham Chess please? would love to know your opinion! it was somewhat viral in Indonesia because of some accusations and would love to see u analyze the game further!
Magnus 2013: It was in this position that we know that Chess has a new champ Judit 1989: It was in this position that we know that Judit never gets heart attacks
I found it too. Thought process was at first purely to get the Queen to the first rank to win the Rook with a check and to see what was available next. The fact it pins the Knight with a double attack was just the sweetener that seals the move.
I found it too. I'm not much of a player; but, in these situations, when we're warned to look for something, it makes sense to evaluate all the stupid moves that could be made in that position. Probably one of them isn't stupid after all. Like, "Hey, why don't I throw away my rook and see what happens?"
She is worthy of a proper "saga" more than most players (I still can't believe that the Morphy saga won that poll)... She grew up in a house that hosted Bobby Fischer for an extended period of time. When she became a grandmaster she was for a time the youngest grandmaster in history. She is the first and to this date only woman to reach 2700+ elo (super GM). Like Morphy her games are full of exciting tactics and unbelievable sacrifices. And for the sake of growing chess I think it would be nice for people to learn about the closest thing to Beth Harmon that the chess world has ever seen
At 5:46 in the video, what if 24. Qd6 (instead of 24. Nd5 , as played in the game)? It seems to me much stronger, and to lead to an entirely different kind of game. Has any engine, or person, ever looked into that? Is there a big flaw that I am missing?
Also, maybe you can highlight more women's games in chess ? We dont have to wait until women's day to feature games by women, which always get overshadowed.
there are like 100:1 male to female players at the top, so its quite obvious that there will be less no. of women games. And regardless why is gender an issue, if he finds a good game he will upload regardless a man or woman
If I saw a Pawn forking my Queen and Rook, I'd have gotten a heart attack.
Not when you are Judit. Lol she calculated many moves ahead and reasoned why he could never take the queen or rook. Amazing stuff to slip out and then the rook sac had to be even more amazing to have that level of craftiness.
ahahah Same here. i would have never thought that I have a check mate at next move
@@giulionazzo88 I would have been White, congratulating myself for forking my opponent's queen and rook with a pawn. A wonderful feeling that would have lasted for an entire move.

"If, based on Polgar's games, "to play like a girl" meant anything in chess, it would mean relentless aggression." - Garry Kasparov
But unfortunately thats not what it means
I love Garry's transition from thinking women can't play chess to acknowledging they can and then being and advisor on Queen's Gambit
I think a game with Judit Polgar was exactly what we needed for international women's day
Greatest woman's chess player of all time i agree!
Lol
The way you say Judit correctly warms my Hungarian heart.
When I see agadmator post a game of Judit's, MY heart turns to goulash. :D
Same.
Also the fact that he is referring to Judit by her first name as opposed to Greenfeld :)
in 1989 Judit was 13 years old, amazing
"There is not really much to be done here because..." (then agadmator continues to show some 25 moves why it's insufficient...🤯)
this just shows how much did alon greenfeld respect judit polgar as a chess player.
That's the best part.
@@michalbotor Meh, there's a much simpler winning idea.

No it’s not, this is the “Dovetail”. The swallow’s tail has the Queen directly in front of the king and two pieces diagonally behind the king.
@@patrickquirk2727, not even easy to swallow while almost impossible to digest. ;-þ
nah m8 its called the horsey reacharounder
Great pronunciation on Judit’s name. Thank you for the attention to this detail. Keep up the good work, greetings from Hungary. 🇭🇺
11:16 "But Judit tries to keep it simple... or rather not simple. She tries to complicate things!"
I find it wonderful that I was, for the first time, able to spot the winning move and the reason
I’m over here like... “ok if the rook takes the bishop then the queen can take the rook but wait??”. And it was in this position that I realized I will never know to resign to a 13 move checkmate pattern.
Last time I was this early , Harwitz said it took little trouble to beat Morphy.
update: as of game 5 he changed his mind. 😋
2:00 you said Judit instead of Alon.
she became both players 🥴
Yeah wtf
Because Judit can change sides as she pleases.
It's women's day, every player is Judit Polgar
Judit so good she plays both sides of the board
I love seeing different thinking styles of different chess players. She has a gorgeous one
Not one, but two brilliant ideas by Judit: the first to allow the fork of her queen and rook, and the second with her Rd2 move. Amazing stuff!
Great game. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
The way I remember the 10:30 checkmate pattern is by remembering that the queen has the ability of the rook and bishop but not knight so if she is next to the king and the knight squares are covered it's checkmate.
questo e livello di altro universo ...complimenti, grazie Agadmator
Crazy for how long Alon held onto the game with peace down, but theres no way out against a GM. Props to Judit, she found an amazing winning move.
There is a very important point that should be made about this game. Greenfeld was 25 at the time of the game and one of the top 100 players in the world and Judit had only recently turned 13! (The picture of her on the screen may lead viewers to assume she was older).

Korchnoi and Fischer were just joining their first chess clubs at the age of 12. (Akiba Rubinstein still didn’t know how to play chess). But Judit was already ranked #55 in the world at that age.
Judit Polgar is not only the greatest ever female player, and one of the greatest attacking players ever, she was far and away the greatest 12 year old chess player ever.
