Anatoly Yevgenyevich Karpov, known as Tolya to his friends, (born May 23, 1951) is a Soviet and Russian chess grandmaster and former World Chess Champion. He was the 12th World Chess Champion from 1975 to 1985, a three-time FIDE World Champion (1993, 1996, 1998), twice World Chess champion as a member of the USSR team (1985, 1989), and a six-time winner of Chess Olympiads as a member of the USSR team (1972, 1974, 1980, 1982, 1986, 1988). The International Association of Chess Press awarded him nine Chess "Oscars" (1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1984).
In other words he was pretty good at chess.
Karpov's tournament successes include over 160 first-place finishes. He had a peak Elo rating of 2780, and his 102 total months at world number one is the third-longest of all time, behind Magnus Carlsen and Garry Kasparov, since the inception of the FIDE ranking list in 1970.
In 1974 he played the Olympiad in Nice for the Soviet team (who won the event) and played an absolute masterpiece of positional chess against the german grandmaster Wolfgang Unzicker.
Even by modern standards the game is near perfect.

Hey ASMR chess, I just want to say that I played in my first OTB tournament this week and was really nervous, but when sitting at the board i thought of you narrating about the different pieces before the battle. It calmed my nerves and I managed to tie for 1st at the end of the day. I love your narration of these master games because your slow methodical approach allows even those at the 2000+ elo level a deeper understanding for the positions and ideas behind them.
Sorry for the tangent, guess I am trying to say that you do good work!
Z at a
Dude well done!
Congrats on 1st
😂😂😂❤😂😂😂😂😮🎉😂😂😂яйф😮й не 😢й😢😂 ❤❤
A few comments on Wolfgang Unzicker, cuz he wasn't a pushover:
-He's played 386 classical games for the german national team in 13 Olympics, national record
-Peak Elo (historical) 2686
-He beat Fisher
-he beat Botvinnik
-he was a chess amateur who played chess in his free time, for fun, he worked as a Lawyer, Karpov called him the "world champion of amateurs"
Hey just want to say that historical games are my favorite type of content from your channel. Of course, all the videos are great 👍
They are also some of my favorite to do! Thanks for sharing. Feedback is always helpful.
@@ASMRChess Also nice touch of you to include that awesome Karpov - Dali photo, I just found out these two met.
I just realised I must have been watching your stuff for about 5 years. I was in Denmark 4 years ago and visited Assistens Cemetary because of your video on it. I still get excited when you upload. Thank you.
The comparison of Karpov with the tide is just amazing
I wasn’t sure that I understood the point of positional games and the Ruy Lopez game until this video. Your videos, in the way that you present them and explain the thought processes, makes me feel like I understand it 10 times better now. I can’t wait for Kasparov vs Karpov :)
Ohhhh this is going to be a relaxing night with your amazing video! Keep going you are the most creative asmrtist out there!!
Happy relaxing my friend and thanks for the kind words!
Dispite the lack of "chess-pieces-getting-capured-sounds", I just know I will still enjoy the video ;)
I hope you will!
A fully whispered video would be greatly appreciated. Those are my favorite parts!
Yes I know I have to do one at some point :)
@@ASMRChess thanks!
It’s very rare for me to find a male asmr voice that is soothing and comforting to me, and you are one of them. Thank you for making these lovely videos
😌☺️😌
This is the content that I like most! Just you showing stuff on the board.
No pieces were captured over the board: it's the souls of black's pieces and his opponent that Karpov captured. Fantastic video!
One of the most gigabrained case studies in game theory I've ever seen. Thank you for providing this.
nora, gigabrained is an ironic and unfortunate recent social media only term and it indicates; again, irony surrounding the user, in case you were unaware: otherwise, be aware the irony is not lost on the recipient, and you are being insulting. in any case, your comment contains no real information and made everyone slightly dimmer for reading it. i say this in hopes of us all making slight improvements in our position; like karpov
My mother, who never played chess, knew who Karpov was. She was born in Italy in 1964 so it shows how influential he is.
Thank you for all the videos, easily one of my favourite channels
I get so exited every time you upload a new video. Thank you so much!
Yes! Another historical game. I love the sense of continuity and organization these videos have :)
I have no clue how to play chess I never learned and I probably never will learn but I enjoy watching ur videos because there comforting in a way I can't describe. So keep on doing what your doing
Man, I love your channel. It's both incredibly relaxing, but also fascinating to hear you talk about chess and explain games like this! Also, hearing you get excited about specific moves is giving me a good feeling :D You really pick me up with your good mood, no joke! Thanks for uploading and sharing
Yes! This upload was just when one of your videos was in need! Thank you ASMR Chess!
Watching this before my big swim meet tomorrow! Hope this can calm the nerves and put me to a good refreshing sleep. THANK YOU!
quickly becoming my favorite ASMR Channel
Wowza. I didn't realized I would enjoy the positional games from you more than the tactical ones from Tal's games. I love the likes of Karpov and Petrosian as I've commented in a previous video asking for something like this. You did incredible and blasted by my expectations, that were already high as they were. Your commentary is wonderful as always. I would like to see you do more videos of great positional masterpieces. That quote about being like water and the wall, it gave me chills, such an awesome way of looking at it.
Love your videos man! Listen to it all the time during work!
Started watching it yesterday, right when it was about to hit the climax of the match, I fell asleep. Ugh!!! I had to come back and watch the end now.
Two brilliant chess players. Amazing
I'm Learning new positioning, and counter methods in a traditionally relaxing manner. Thank you
Your voice is so relaxing 🥺💯
Thank you so much for another wonderful video!!! I really love Chess history.
5am Here and I cant sleep, luckily there's this video, thank you
Another great video. I love the historical stuff. I hope you can do some more opening videos. I became a Sicilian player thanks to your video. You do an amazing job explaining chess concepts. Selfishly I would love a video on the English opening for White. I like opening that attack the center from the side and not traditional strategies.
Just when i finish the other 2h of video. You're on fire man
Amazing game. I really would enjoy more Karpov smothers, they can teach you just so much about positional masterclass. Also, great commentary and overall ASMR as always :)
Like playing chess against the tide. Wow :) well said dude. Love your videos Mr. Chess.
Nice) you have my support brother) the only asmr channel i follow
Have you done a video on the Ruy Lopez? If not, this looks so interesting it’s making me want to explore something other than Queen’s gambit (finding a comfortable strat and staying with it is a personal flaw lol).
And as always, feel free to just ignore me and make the videos you want to. Love the vid.
I want to make a video on the Ruy Lopez at some point
Your voice is soooooo good for this
That description looks like it took a long time to make, so this comments entire point is to show that I/we see it🙃
Just One more NICE video , keep up with the good Work !
I’ll do my best my friend :)
Great work as usual!
Beautiful game! Would you consider a video teaching the scotch? It’s one of my favorite openings and I would love to see a video of yours based on it.
Fantastic video!
Even among all of the amazing attacking games, this one stands out as my favorite even though I'm an aggressive player.
first 5 seconds and he sent tingles down my spine
Hi, thank you so much for the upload! My girlfriend recently gifted me a small chess set, and I'm excited to finally have the chance to play on the board. Thing is, I'll be playing myself mostly. Any tips on best exercises for a sub-600 playing both sides of the board? Thanks for any help!
Yes learn chess notation (it looks hard but it is easy) and get a chess book with famous games or an instructional chess book. Then go over the games, read the notes and have a good cup of tea. It is an amazing way to spend time.
@@ASMRChess Time to dust off the kettle, thanks!
Same exact situation! Thanks so much for the advice
Learn how to check for blunders. That's the #1 reason why games are lost for sub-1000 games.
I love how excited you get by this game! To me, chess seems like the perfect combination of sport and art, and your type of enthusiasm really shows the latter.
Would you consider doing a pure whisper video? I'd enjoy it! But all your content is lovely regardless
Yes I have to do a pure whisper video at some point. Thanks for the kind words!
This is gold
Love it 💖
I know youve probably answered this before but where did you get your board and pieces?
It seems that the mistake in this game from black was not exchanging on d4 with cxd4 before moving the knight from a5 back to c6. I’ve played this position as black before and always do that since that’s what the book move is. I wonder if that is because of this game
time stamp?
I'm not a fan of Rui Lopez games but this one is nasty. Very cool.
Wake up, Honey, new ASMR Chess video just dropped.
Superb game indeed :)
Wow I seen the bishop move at 25:15. I’m basically a grandmaster at this point
Since he was so outmatched positionally I wonder if Unzincker would have had more success in this game sacrificing material to catch back up in position. There were a couple of times it felt like he could break through that wall of pawns by sacrificing a knight and attempting to catch up on material afterwards. I'm probably wrong.
i think that’s always a possibility but it’s literally work to figure it out
Already a new video?
Much appreciated😊
Hello great video, I find that you have a more composed voice than on the previous one. I didn't finish this one but would it be possible from time to time to whisper for the next one, I like the rupture that it causes
I’m not sure if you are quite into this stuff, but I highly recommend an anime called March Comes in Like a Lion. It is about shogi, or japanese chess, and the way they portray the game reminds me of your channel. I really think you would love it it is a phenomenal piece of fiction and a true love letter to the game
like hunter x hunter lol
Are you going to use the expensive board a video one day? That would be very cool
When will you use the 1,000 London set?
You should do a video on the part of twin peaks season 2 that involves chess where coop is trying to stalemate the game
If that was you in the thumbnail I'm calling shenanigans. You don't get to be an intelligent chess nerd, AND have a jawline chiseled by the Greek gods.
#NerfAsmrChess
Haha unfortunately the chiseled jaw belongs to Anatoly Karpov and not me 😅
@@ASMRChess then I call shenanigans on him
Please can you do a video on the Icelandic gambit
Proud feeling that this beautiful game chess was created in India🇮🇳❣️
You must also be proud that Praggnanadhaa just beat Magnus Carlsen!
@@ASMRChess yess!! That game was so intense
Can you teach us the Dutch defence please? :)
Are you danish? Great video btw
Fantastic! Love your content. Thank you for all you do :)
This reminds me of the blind girl in HxH and how she basically beat a God without cheating and she was prepared to die if she lost on her own request.
The "God" first suggested cutting off any part of her body if she lost but she suggested her life instead because to her 1 loss was equal to her life.
Just want to humble brag, that since Friday I’ve gone from 600 to 700. I dream of chess now.
Well done!
Say what you will about karpov, the man is a genius on the board and his games are incredible
bro y arethe best love y bro best yt
on a roll!
Is that you in the red shirt?
No it is Anatoly Karpov
imma watch this later but, first
❤
27:26 u can’t even go rc7 because of bb6, wow.
I miss the fire.
15:48 I see what you did there
Nice!
Hello!
28:24 Na5. Actually works. Can’t take with pawn cause lose the bishop. Can’t take with rook cause lose rook by queen. In either case, white loses the position. Just because it can be captured doesn’t mean it wouldn’t work.
Thank you for your comment! Unfortunately Na5 does not work. If 24... Na5 25. Rxa5, Qxa5 26. bxa5, Rxa7 and black is down a queen and a knight for a rook and a bishop with no compensation. Black would be losing quickly there.
if y havent can y play shut the box
Sub in spanish pleaseee 🥺
First! :)
Second!
