@@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
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.
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 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.
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. 😊
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...
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.
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
#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.
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?
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.
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 !
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.
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?
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 :)
he must not have seen it as morphy played only adoption matches( meaning that he had blitz time while his opponents played with normal time against him) or it may have been a bad move down the line and he must have seen it and not played it. i think it is the first reason though
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
'I didnt sacrifice my knight to count pawns' Damn..the way Agadmator describes Morphy's inner ideas makes Morphy look even more badass

Morphy was a great gentleman too.
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.

Was the variation at that time known as Taimanov variation even before Taimanov was born??
yes, he was named in honor of the variation

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....

What a great quote by Naval Ravikant!
At 1:55 couldn't he just grab the g7 pawn? What am I missing here?
The awesomeness of the thumbnail :D
1:54 Cmon Agad how can you not explain why Qxg7 is not good? It's an obvious move! Rg8, Qh6 and what?...
You will lose the e4 pawn... And you develop the rook with tempo for black. Its not worth it. Thats why knight c3 is played first, to protect e4.
@ 3:10 doesn't Kf1 hold? It's ugly but it doesn't lose a piece.
Why is there no Friday arena these days? Or am I missing it?
I love the quote above the board.
