This is the story of the birth of modern chess - when the possibilities of chess as an art, a science and a sport all converged.
The point of convergence was a young boy from Louisiana named Paul Morphy. At a time when America was seen as a backwoods nation with little cultural history and even less intellectual impetus, at a time when chess was considered the exclusive property of a few European countries, at a time when the game was played successfully by a handful of men wizened by years, Paul Morphy, in the brief span of 19 months and with seemingly little effort, defeated conclusively every player he met.
While today few non chess players even know his name, he was one of the most famous celebrities of his time and within the hallowed halls of the chess playing community he is considered by some as the greatest chess player of all time.
But this diminutive, unassuming boy rose to fame almost out of nowhere and once he secured his place in history, he retired back into that hazy unknown, shunning the public eye, never again to play serious chess. Not only was he one of great practitioners of the game, but also one of it's greatest enigmas. He's been given the sobriquet, The Pride and Sorrow of Chess.

'I didnt sacrifice my knight to count pawns' Damn..the way Agadmator describes Morphy's inner ideas makes Morphy look even more badass

When Antonio says "There's nothing more to be done here," he sounds like an emergency room doctor standing over an accident victim.
Löwenthal is really showing some good stuff this time
Really happy to see a great game from our good friend Johann Jacob as we spent most of the Saga dunking on his analysis
Operator: "911 WHAT'S THE EMERGENCY??"
Agad: "HELLO EVERYONE! I wish to report a pickpocket. I just saw a man robbing a woman's purse."
Operator: "Can you describe the aggressor and the victim?"
Agad: "She is white and the hoodie guy is black. So, in honor of the hoodie guy I am wearing a hoodie..."
Operator: "Is anyone harmed or needs medical attention??"
Agad: "No. Black started the attack right away but white decided to completely disregard this. Which is a weird move, but ok."
Operator: "Were there any other witnesses?"
Agad: "No but luckily I had my camera on me, so as soon as I saw the incident I just started taking as many photos as possible as evidence. It was captures, captures, captures... Quite amazing stuff. I will be telling this to my friends at the bar and the library."
Operator: "That's good. Anything else that might help us identify the aggressor?"
Agad: "There's also CCTV cameras around here that probably filmed the incident. So, feel free to pause the video and try to identify the thief while I give you a couple of seconds... So, if you were able to do it, congratulations on being an excellent criminal finder, and for those who are here just to enjoy the show, the criminal is..."
Operator: "Thank you for your call sir. Our officers are on the way."
Agad: "Soyea. I really hope you enjoyed that. Have a nice rest of your friday and I'll see you soon."

Thank you for posting an amazing comment on this channel. I really appreciate it.
You deserve a Morphy head
Camilo Hiche this is perfect! :)
Morphy: g6
Löwenthal: Nothing personal kiddo
Why didn't Morphy at that moment moved rook g1->b1? I'm a beginner and probably just miss why...
@@magnusea Morphys rook never was on g1. He was black. Which move do you refer?
@@balazsvarga77 Oh, havent even learned the coordinates. This: When pawn f7f5 played, why not rook f8f2, trapping the queen Well, I'll study that later... :D
@@magnusea Queen c7. It is protected by the knight.

"Like a machine" -- definitely the line of the game.
Last time I was this early Morphy was a teenager shattering Lowenthals ego

@Tai Chi Tube people who’ve died due to your types ignorance: 👁 👄 👁
When you are attacked on the side respond in the center...
When I first started watching your videos, I had no hope of finding any of the moves you asked your viewers to find. Now I can find them a decent amount of the time, without pausing, at 1.25x speed. Your videos have been a massive help.
I am so glad that he won a memorable game, Löwenthal was a great player in his own right and its sad that we usually only see his defeats by Morphy.
I found this on Wiki: 'No doubt aware that chess was Löwenthal's only source of livelihood, and conscious to not be considered a professional player himself, Morphy, after winning the match stakes of £100, presented Löwenthal with a gift of furniture valued at £120 for his new house.'
Morphy was a great gentleman too.
"You are up a bishop pair, which is not often seen in chess"
My opponents in every game: up a full queen or a rook.
I feel like Morphy wins 7 games against Lowenthal and just stops caring .
I agree. I would say he's just not willing to spend the time to find the best moves
John Wamsley I agree. It’s like he wins the important ones, establishes to Everyone and mostly himself that he’s better and stops trying
Still a very good accomplishment for Loewenthal as he managed to beat Morphy
It's probably the fact that he played instantly, he was basically playing blitz while his opponents played using more time than any modern classical game. He practically played adoption matches against his opponents
Lowenthal's play was extremely precise after g4, though.
I love it when both players seem uninterested in playing to a draw.
I love how Morphy keeps fighting on with every possible resource. Nice game from Lowenthal.
Lowenthal deserves a Morphy head, while Morphy deserves a Barnes head. Crazy, crazy stuff.
Löwenthal deserved the Morphy head for this game
Lowenthal's immortal, he will forever be in our hearts.
@Donald Trump go drink antiseptic
@Donald Trump * 1:44
@Donald Trump because that leaves to an open file for the rook in front of the king
@Donald Trump no more Trump

Not as much as Thomas Wilson Barnes
I really thought that “to make it fun” in the end was going to be the Morphy Head for Löwenthal
Ahhhhh.....Back at it again with the good stuff!
"Nasty discoveries are coming.."
AGADMATOR also posts a video when 3 GM's are live
Who to watch😭
I have been uploading some interesting chess miniature games, u will love it ❤.... ..
agadmator's first😙
obviously agadmator
Agad is the most popular chess youtuber bro
No first the live GMs , agadmator's videos are recorded!
I love how agadmator is getting very creative with the thumbnail.
Löwenthal: 😎
Morphy: 🤪😂
I love these old games by the pioneers of chess. No internet, no computer engines, limited opening theory, maybe a book or a list of games. If you wanted to get a good chess game you probably had to travel for months. With their limited resources they did amazingly well.
Always comment in a clear and easy to understand way, great job.
What a great quote by Naval Ravikant!
I love your videos. I'm not good at chess, and I hardly play, but your videos never fail to fascinate me. They are really well put together and your commentary is amazing. Please keep up the great work, you are awesome. 😊
I love the quote above the board.
This is the earliest I’ve been to an agadmator video
please continue this saga!!
it is nice to see Morphy going out swinging, as you said. Thanks for the video!
finally!! I was waiting for the new video
I have been uploading some interesting chess miniature games, u will love it ❤.... ...
11:20 You don't hear this often! Lowenthal gets Morphy head against Morphy 💪
Wow I didn’t know that two people could be first!

You haven’t been following the comments then, normally there are like 52 firsts 😂😂😂
shriyal prabhudesai Oh yeah totally when I first commented there were only 2
But Löwenthal finally showed what he is capable of.
Loving these games! (excellent commentary)
No one:
This is 4th consecutive thumbnail.
loved naval quote
I just had to put my Stockfish desktop version to weigh in on this game to believe what I was seeing. You can really feel a frustrated Morphy in this game. That g4 move really upset him. This wasn't like he played the knight and saw g4. By his subsequent play you could tell g4 was totally unexpected. Morphy I think expected a defense of the "important" central e pawn with 12. Qe2 as more or less forced. Lowenthal probably saw it as just too passive (e.g. blocking the king B) and determined to find something else. This is a great saga. Enjoying the Morphy story. Seeing this game actually illustrates the very tough opposition Morphy had to defeat. Makes Morphy's achievements all the more noteworthy in chess history.
did i just heard Nícolas Kiefer at the end, the former pro tenis player 0v0?
Excellent, as always i must say.
Lowenthal showing some competition!!! Much needed
Someone probably said this already, but it seems to me that Morphy was just being a gentleman and allowing Lowenthal to win, more or less. He just backed off and played a fast and loose game and had fun. Fighting with one hand tied behind his back, so to speak. If Morphy won, he won, and if he lost, he also won, because he gave his opponent an opportunity to save face and shine a bit. He was already crushing Lowenthal in the match, no need to utterly humiliate him.
I very often encounter opponents that manage to be up a bishop pair
In another way to look at this game ... his father & uncle who trained Morphy whispers in his ear = "give your opponent at least One more victory so he can save face ... you know you're better than him anyway"
3:06 why not queen f8 to defend the night Bishop c6 could be met with rook g8?
Thanks Agad. Another epic game. Seems like all Morphy's games are.
Was the variation at that time known as Taimanov variation even before Taimanov was born??
yes, he was named in honor of the variation
@@TheMegadomino 🤣🤣🤣🤣
wow the opening is old school nice.
Builds on L's previous victory. L saw through every trap Morphy laid for him and avoided it, and almost invariably saw his own best offensive move. I guess he's shaking off the rust, because he looks like a totally different player than in the early games of the match.
but he lost 8 games in this match though🤣🤣🤣
You could defend the knight with both the rook and the king, but it would leave black in an extremely passive position with the knight pinned and black not able to trade queens cus the pawn would then attack the pinned knight.
Omg Lowenthal looks very cool on this game.
"...and went out swinging he did.". Lol
I love that quote.
Lowenthal went on all guns blazing. Simply beautiful
If Morphy was not playing, Lowenthal would get a Morphy head.
11:44 hilarious moment, went out swinging he did! HAHAHA
After 12.g4 Ng7 13.Qf6 Rg8 14.Bh6 Black could play Qf8 and save the piece for now. But after 15.0-0-0 it is impossible to get rid of the pin. It would be a slow painful death.
Barns was crazy though ... Bring him back my lord..
At 3:11 you commented on 12 g4 Ng7 13 Qf6 Rg8 14 Bh6 and said black has to lose the knight now but, as I noticed several people commented also, you can defend it with 14 ... Qf8 or even 14 ... Kf8
But it leaves black in a wretched position, eg
15 O-O-O Nb8 (trying to oust the queen with Nd7)
16 Bg5 Nc6
17 Ne4 h6
18 Nd6+ Kd7
So its likely Morphy considered it better to have two pawns for the piece and an active position....
Regards
Love you bro best chess contend ever
löwenthal's playing like a machine in this match could be easily explained by him having prior to it a glass or two of laudanum. 🤣
Tonight, Let it be Lowenthal
The quote is awesome
Löwenthal played the previous game like a noob, but then he completely redeemed himself with this.
Agadmator: .. pause the video while I give you a few seconds
Me.. 30 minutes later.. :')
best chess channel
The awesomeness of the thumbnail :D
I've never been this fast before.
Agad, plz make the video of Judit polgar vs Indian comedians game... She started the game with knight down position.. sacrificed a piece.. switched the board on comedians request and still won !! Very interesting game !
And it was in this position that I reward Lowenthal a Morphy head
Löwenthal's manly sideburns defeat Morphy's effeminate mullett.
5:25 My 1300 ass was literally thinking of that exact plan and then you showed why it didn't work :(
4:44 why can't Knight capture on d4 pawn here?
#suggestion
@agadmator's Chess Channel: can you show some of the early Kasparov - Karpov games from their 1984 world championship match. I am curious to see how Kasparov took his time to adapt to Karpov's playing style after being down 0-5 at one stage.
#suggestion Comedians [Samay, Vaibhav, Biswa & Abhishek] vs Vladimir Kraminik. It was wild
I always heard "poor Charles Mormphy". My bad
Murphy swang and missed. . Very good game by Lowy
And it was in this position that Agadmator.Depression Joined the game.
Why is there no Friday arena these days? Or am I missing it?
I think that after watching many videos in this saga that a lot of the player of that time did not lack anything but a professional attitude towards chess.
Lowenthal's Immortal.
Johann Jacob Lowenthal won the game!
Lowenthal deserves a Morphy's head.
What about Kf8? In the critical position after white's Qf6 I mean... Bh6 met with Rg8 and then black have a harsh time anyway, but I couldn't find an immediate crushing sequence...
Jeez, Lowenthal was no joke!
Please cover Napolean vs Morphy game. It features a devastating last move.
I have been uploading some interesting chess miniature games, u will love it ❤.... ...
at 3:02 you can play ..kf8 bh6 rg8 and the game goes on..
Hello. That does actually seem to work but my guess is that Morphy did not play it as it ties up so many of black's pieces in the defense of the king. I guess Morphy wanted a more open position where he could hope for a mistake from his opponent. But who knows :)
@@DaveNeve yes whites position is far supirior but the game is still playable, maybe not on masters level though 😅
Amazing game by Lowenthal.
6:31Lowenthal is like a machine !!
My mind: Maybe he hide a machine under his thick beard (such as trimmer ) ~ #Machine in Lip balm Game
Lol I was thinking the same thing too ....the Anna Rudolph lip balm game
help me out here. After 12.) g4... let say black chooses the line of Ng7. After 13.) Qf7 Rg8 14.) Bh6... wouldn't black have Kf1 and successfully defend against loosing a piece?
It was a proud moment
Skipped some of class to watch this video
Löwenthal must have felt pretty good after this game with confidence that he could actually out play Morphy without relying on tricks or a Morphy mistake.
3:11 What if Morphy had played Qf8...
A question. What is the poison behind the capturing of g6 pawn by white queen on move nine ?
Back then chess was fun. 8-3 and zero draws.
löwnthal shou listen "everlasting ego" this song suites him
Returning from Europe: “Paul Morphy... expressed the conviction that he had played poorly, rashly; that none of his opponents should have done so well as they did against him.”
That's The sound of Morphy's turbo spooling up.
#suggestion Giri crushing Magnus in the banter blitz game... ok back to the stream😸
Hello. At 4.33 instea d of black grabbing another pawn with the knight, why not play black queen to F6, the idea being that after white then takes your knight, you can then play knight to F3, forcing white to move his king and to lose castling rights?
Lowenthal going deeeeep
