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.
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."
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 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.
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
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.
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. 😊
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
To play your Immortal Game against the likes of Paul Morphy? Well, that's a nice way to be remembered by posterity! Rest in Peace, JJL! You played "like a machine", according to Agadmator and the spectators.
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 !
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.
#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.
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"
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.
Back with the good stuff. Good game by loewenthal. Why does it make news when morphy drops a game. It seems people get sadistic pleasure when he loses. It's natural to lose. No one is perfect,not even Morphy.
Nice game! After Qf6, if black defends the Knight on g7 with Qf8, how does white win? Black would be very passive but might try Nb8 and Nd7 to kick the white Queen away and then unpin with Qe7.
'I didnt sacrifice my knight to count pawns' Damn..the way Agadmator describes Morphy's inner ideas makes Morphy look even more badass
Lolth-cam.com/video/Vsc1e3e7GsY/w-d-xo.html
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

I love it when both players seem uninterested in playing to a draw.
Löwenthal deserved the Morphy head for this game
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
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.
@@roberthansen5727 may be he was using a lip balm :p

I really thought that “to make it fun” in the end was going to be the Morphy Head for Löwenthal
Lowenthal deserves a Morphy head, while Morphy deserves a Barnes head. Crazy, crazy stuff.
"You are up a bishop pair, which is not often seen in chess"

Always comment in a clear and easy to understand way, great job.
This is the earliest I’ve been to an agadmator video
it is nice to see Morphy going out swinging, as you said. Thanks for the video!
What a great quote by Naval Ravikant!

Lol I was thinking the same thing too ....the Anna Rudolph lip balm game
wow the opening is old school nice.
The awesomeness of the thumbnail :D
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. 🤣
I very often encounter opponents that manage to be up a bishop pair
Barns was crazy though ... Bring him back my lord..
Lowenthal went on all guns blazing. Simply beautiful
I've never been this fast before.
"...and went out swinging he did.". Lol

give Morphy the Barnes head! Lowethal showing some serious moves in this game
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....

5:25 My 1300 ass was literally thinking of that exact plan and then you showed why it didn't work :(
It was a proud moment
And it was in this position that I reward Lowenthal a Morphy head

Nice game! After Qf6, if black defends the Knight on g7 with Qf8, how does white win? Black would be very passive but might try Nb8 and Nd7 to kick the white Queen away and then unpin with Qe7.
really good match
If Morphy was not playing, Lowenthal would get a Morphy head.
Tonight, Let it be Lowenthal
Löwenthal after the game stands proudly up, announces to the audience "I told you, he isn't as strong as when he was twelve!"
Löwenthal played the previous game like a noob, but then he completely redeemed himself with this.
