#suggestion Janowski-Lasker, Cambridge Springs, 1904. The sacrifices started right from the opening and Janowski went all out in the final round to win. He didn’t let the World Champ castle, sacrificed the exchange and even his queen for the black king. I don’t think anyone has really covered it at all, so a good suggestion, I hope.
This is a spectacular post by Antonio. That Kasparov’s inimitable brilliance in this game is corroborated by modern engines, despite the comparisons by Kasparov’s contemporaries to Tal’s more dubious attacks, is a goosebump laden thrill. Kasparov still holds the keys to the GOAT mantle, imho.
yeah Kasparov took Tal's energetic but chaotic style and polished it to be more scientifically precise. He believed in organically building the potential energy of his pieces and only then unleashing hell instead of trying to force complications like Tal. As great as Tal was, Kasparov's tweaks are what led to his incredible consistency and becoming the longest reigning world #1
Sometimes a game is so beautiful you have to stop the video half way to go and play some of your own. Came back an hour later and realized I hadn't even seen the best bits! Great video, appreciate your work man
This is an odd game, in that Kasparov looked so far ahead in position early in the game that his victory seemed inevitable, but in reality victory could only be brought home with extremely precise play by white. I could not personally have played with the precision necessary to bring the win home. I'm sure I could have drawn with my imprecise moves, but the win would have eluded me. It reminded me of many of my draws against the LiChess engine, in which I knew I had a win but ended up with a draw for lack of precision.
I'd like to make a general comment to you. Youre channel is the best channel om chess games. You are factual, calm, balamced. And, you show the why and why not with efficiency and clarity. Thank you.
At 9:29, once White takes with N on g5, there's a faint hint of smothered mate in the air, and this is due to the pawn on d7 now blocking the Black queen's view across the 7th rank; with Nf7+, Black would have to capture with the rook because on Kg7, Nh7++ etc. Of course Black would absolutely take the N with the R. Great story about Tal's phone call to Kasparov on the eve of the latter's championship-winning game! This is one of my favorite aspects of your videos--not that these are simply nice anecdotes, but that you provide the contexts that humanize these players.
Hey Agad, been a fan for a while. Just wanted to share that your videos are one of the things my son and I regularly catch up on when he comes to visit. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into your channel, it's very appreciated. (I remember when you thought 1 million subscribers was something you considered a joke....look how far you've come!)
that's awesome... My Dad introduced me to chess when I was 7, but didn't teach me too much. I think he was scared I would beat him 🙂 If they had these videos so accessible back in the 80's I could've improved so much more, but I really just like to play for fun.
What would be cool, having a retired legend like GK come on and analyze one of his great games and talk through the moves as he thought during the game. I had a history professor who assign us to visit VFW’s (veteran of foreign wars) to interview WWI Vet’s since in the 70’s they were passing away very quickly. With Karpov not feeling well, it would be fantastic if any of the greats would be up for it here. Just a thought.
We really do love these recaps, of the legendary games. AndI have to admit Kasparov was a monster attacker, especially in his youth, everyone must be scared of his attacks.
Your narration of these games makes this sooooooo exciting :D ... amazing! I like chess, but I'm not very good at at it - not seeing all the implications of every single move. So you exploring and explaining adds so much more depth to the games for me. Thank you!
Interesting Game I like the way you stated the obvious the fact of a Good offensive player making opportune moves one after another not faltering which is what White succeeded in doing the momentum carrying him over finish line to Victory Another Enjoyable Game and Breakdown from you Thanks Much
Exactly. Kasparov is anything but a one dimensional chess savant. Time will tell if Magnus is more than just a chess player, but Kasparov has proved time and again that he is invested in the good of humanity, far above and beyond his chess brilliance.
Agadmator often makes reference to "sad bishops", who have been assigned to protecting pawns from behind and thus been demoted from a bishop to a pawn. Well, in this game Kasparov brilliantly lured black into demoting his queen into a pawn, early in the game having forced the queen to sit behind a knight and pawn to protect them, That was indeed a sad queen, who contributed nothing to black the whole game.
At 15:00 I thought the good move for White was Rd8. If Black takes rook with with bishop, then it's checkmate. If Black takes with rook with rook, then there's a great combo where the white Queen says check 3 times and all Black's minor pieces come off. So, Black cannot take. The best delay seems to be ..Ne8, but White brings his other guns in with Re1.This seems to be winning, eventually, but Agadmator's move is sharper. Thank you for another good show!
#suggestion any Max Euwe game, but I like Euwe - Keres from round 11 of their match in Rotterdam, 1940 Max Euwe is a former world champion and FIDE president, so he deserves a game to be shown here!
TH-cam has updated and now they have this "shop" icon overlayed on top of the video. It used to disappear after a while, but now it seems to be permanent and there's no way I can find to get rid of it. So annoying.
15:07 rook to d8 is also a winning move I guess. If rook f8 captures rook d8 then queen take bishop f6 is check and after the king move queen f6 capture rook d8. And if the knight blocks after at e8 just capture the knight with rook, then rook f8 x rook e8.. we can still take bishop with check and continue... Or queen to d6 , threatening knight and rook
Gary worked so hard, his idols became his rivals. Still behooves me whether chess is something that one can have a natural inclination for ( like your naturally gifted), or is it something you culminate through years of hard work. Chess is hard because, even with all the hours of work, there is that level of prep and memorization. For me the most idealistic way to play is what the engine would say, but my human side and what I want votes for the 2+2=5 forest, and all the nuances and intricacies of position that almost is fun with human doubt involved.

No,when kasparov was playing the last game of world championship he only had to draw to win the world champion ship and become the youngest world champion. Mikhail tal who was then the current youngest champion called kasparov and said "young man tommorow is my birthday and I expect a very good present" and hanged the call
Tal is truly a legend, though he was one of the best players, he barely care about achievement or money. He just enjoys the sport of chess to its fullest.

#suggestion Vachier, Legrave vs Vallejo Pons C70 Ruy Lopez Morphy Defense, Norwegian version nightingale gambit, one of the longest opening names and one of my fav gambit opening. Thanks Agad!
In that case rook takes on g6 and you can resign. If bishop to f8, you get mated on g8. If rook goes to g8 to defend your bishop, then it's just d8Q (which isn't possible when knight is on c5 - black just takes white's queen) and we are done.
11:18 I did find the pause the video moment here (one of the rarer cases) but agad had me feeling completely defeated after he read my mind like an open book 🙃
Hello Agadmator, your videos looked blurred and I don't know whether it's from my internet because other videos looks OK. Please check if the upload does not have any issue. Thank You. Your fan from Germany.
7:59 In this position Rxg6! seems to be much stronger than h4. There is a direct mate threat with Qxg7++, and there are only 2 reasonable possible ways to counter that: Rg8 or Qe5. Moving the bishop means mate in 1: Bf8 Rg8++ or else Rxh6+ Qh7 Rxh7++. Rg8 is followed by d8Q and clearly wins for white. Qe5 is followed by Rxh7 Qxh7 Qe8+ Qg8 Qxg8+ Rxg8 and d8Q. White clearly wins this.
Hay Ag . i wanted to ask what this means . Choose between three moves - 3...cxd4, 3...Nxd4, and 3...e6 Can you tell me what the cx means and the Nx. I know the 3 is third move. and the D4 is D4 on the board of coarse.as well as E6. But im confused by the other stuff
