Bobby Fischer's 21-move brilliancy
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ก.ย. 2017
- Bobby Fischer creates a chess masterpiece in only 21 moves against Robert Eugene Byrne, an International Master, at the 1963/1964 United States Chess Championship, held in New York. At 20 years young, Grandmaster Robert James Fischer was already among the world's very best chess players. In this brilliancy, Fischer demonstrates how to inject multiple imbalances into a highly symmetrical position, how to properly highlight these differences to benefit oneself, and how to accurately assess the true value of the pieces as they rest on the board.

I'm a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.

If my voice sounds worn to you in this video, good ear! It's football season, and I tend to be a vocal fan. :) I hope you enjoy this video. *This was the 1st comment to this video, somehow it got lost/unpinned.*
you sound like you pulled an all-nighter at collage, took 3 exams in a row, then went to your dorm and started recording this.
I was about to comment that you sound like Stephen Hawking. :)
A fan of real chess and the type played on a large green board i see
Thank you JJ.
+ChessNetwork I really like your explanations and the way you narrated this video. I'm definitely not great at chess and it makes it much easier to understand what's going on.
Did I think I would sit through 20 minutes of this guy's voice and a simulated chess match? No. Did I? Yes. I even paused twice when he told me to.
Edit (3 years later): 5,800 likes?? 😳
You people are very easily amused!! 🤓

This wasn't a simulated match, this was played in a big tournament.
HA ! HA ! (me too)
I still remember how happy my older brother looked when I started beating him in chess. He really is the best brother I could hope for still.
Are you me? That's the same as me. I could never beat him and he was almost a master. Then I read Bobby Fischer's book and beat him 3 times in a row. That was the last time he played me.
I love games. Chess is a bit slow for me. I love to watch these videos though, and I may think about playing again. I like texas holdem because so many factors come into play, and you're basically playing other players.
Chess isn't a game. It's a life style. It's life strategy... for me it's taking all my lifes mistakes, burying them, and turning that creative energy onto a temporary distraction. 🤔 fml, career change moment
@@kennethwilliams9485 You were able to beat an almost master by reading one book from Bobby Fischer? Were they all traps he fell for Bobby traps he fell into?
@@stephenoproulx5252 They were probably both rated highly and his brother was just like 100 rating higher or something.
In the demonstration room, just as two GM's were telling the audience that Fischer's sacrificial attack had failed, and that he was lost, word came from the playing room that Byrne had resigned.
Thanks for this fun memory.

@@scottmaher1681 I don't recall the source but it was written by a leading American master. I can't recall which one.
I am a very big fan of Mr Fisher. and never forget that when he won the world championship it was headlines news in our Indian newspapers. I am 75 years old now. I use to collect Mr Fishers games published in Sunday newspapers and enjoy playing them on the boards.

I’m 70 years old and I remember Bobby Fisher. Chess on an international level was very very big. International matches would make the nightly news. Had a very mysterious vibe about it. Great to come back to the game after so long and yes, after watching The Queen’s Gambit. They sure hit lightning in a bottle with this series, at this time. Who knew🤔
Very cool!!
Exactly! This series struck a note that just keeps humming in my head. I don't even like chess!!!
The cinematography was gorgeous, a little bit like Wes Anderson movies.
BTW, I watched the Chernobyl series and loved it just as much.
thank you for sharing your own emotions about the big matches!
I'm 71 and remember it well. Kids in America were actually playing chess. Now they play electronic games. Oh well, I guess China and Russia will continue to produce good young chess players.
I'm 70, and was in medical school when Bobby Fisher was generating so much excitement. Several of us started playing chess on a regular basis, when we really should have been studying gross anatomy ;-)
Wow, this is amazing, it's crazy to me how not only Bobby saw that amazing plan, but Byrne also saw what was about to go down as well, leading to a resignation.
I don’t see it, if the game is forced to progress as they saw it would be an inevitable mate, but white’s knights and bishop could easily provide protection against black’s bishop, queen, and rook on move 22 if there wasn’t a resign.
Just an incredible performance that Bobby pulled off in this tournament. No one did it before, and no one has done it since with a perfect score in a US Championship either. This game here has always been one of my more favorite games of Bobby Fischer‘s too.
I am a very amateur Chess player. I really enjoyed this video as you explained the most common responses to each move (which made sense to me) and how Bobby deviated from those. He wasn't focusing on the power moves, he was focusing on the checkmate. Moving the pawn instead of attacking. Taking the bishop instead of the rook. These are not moves I would have ever considered, but this really helps me think about chess in a better way (and has renewed my interest in the game). Thanks for this.
Great to read that Michael. Happy to help.👍🏼

Holy shit its Rudy!
Only Paul Morphy and Bobby Fisher could play this way. They were both true geniuses!
For once i understand completely how Fischer felt after the game; not being able to land the final blow because your opponent resigns is so anti-climatic.
It would fk you up especially if you're ocd
Good chess players never get check-mated, they always resign.
black dog Sounds like bad loosers
that's because they know what's coming usuallly
nah,both players already played these oves in their head.they don't need to play that on the board for making that a reality.
remember,this is a game playing in your mind,the board is just there for helping the players to plan and record.
I'm 70 also. I remember reading the move by move diagrams in the evening newspaper and playing them out on a chessboard. Fischer was a superstar!
We are going back in time (nearly 60yrs back from my comment) when chess was played OTB or by mail and Soviet Russia had more GMs and knowledge about chess than anywhere in the world and a young Bobby Fischer absorbed everything ounce of information about chess he could find and that information came from books, magazines and word of mouth.
His goal was to be the best chess player in the world. The more of his life he gave to chess the more chess took from his life.
Bobby Fischer was not gifted; he was focused.
He spent over 10 hours a day working on his goal.
He became World Champion through hard work and dedication.
A gift is something that is given and all that Fischer was given was a chance.
He was awesome at playing chess.
It’s not fair to say he was gifted when he worked so hard to achieve what he achieved.
RIP sir
PS
We ALL know about what followed after he beat Spassky and how he developed certain points of view and how he became reclusive.
I prefer to study Fischer the person that played chess and not worry to much about Fischer The Nazi, Fischer The Recluse or Fischer The Tax Dodger etc.
i dont even play chess why am i watching this it's 2 am

Amazing game, and excellent commentary! I've seen other courses in which the concept of "imbalances" was discussed, but never explained as clearly and concisely as it was in this game. I definitely had an "Ah-HA!" moment, so thanks for that!
Great to read that 👍
That's a first.
Watching a narrated game of chess on TH-cam for the first time and actually enjoying it.
😎
Yep. Jerry has a great speaking voice and style and he moves right along with a concise economy of words. Always engaging and informative.
Try agadmator's chess channel. He explains in great detail why the players made the moves that they did as well as variations. He also does it in a quick and informative manner. However, you might need a little chess expirience as he does go a little fast at times.
OK. I like to watch youtube so I will note that and try it sometime. Do you do videos about origami, by any chance?

I love the way Jerry explains things in a clear deliberate manner.
What I really appreciate though is the pace you explain. Not too rushy, calm and consumable explanation. Thanks for that.
Thank you.

Me: Ahh yes horse go neigh
Ha funny joke
ah yes bishop go preach jesus or something
@@Niiue Don't mention Jews around Fischer !
when you're being hit with a beautiful mating sequence like that, at least give the guy the decency of playing it out
This happens a lot - players resigning right before the star move gets played. Fragile egos that chessplayers have, they want everyone to know that they saw it too. Of course, the revelation came a few moves too late.
This "fragile ego" is by no means specific to chess players. I don't know about sports, but I do know that this is incredibly common in competitive video games as well. Most people just don't really see a point in playing a game anymore once they know the outcome, and I don't think we should blame them for it, rather the people who don't give up like that should be commended.
yikes yeah that happens they resign a lot
You have to pick the board up and hit the winner with it. I thought it was custom?
playing in a major chess tournament is mentally and physically exhausting. At a local chess club they might have played it out.I would not want to waste 20 to 30 minutes in a poor lay hoping Fischer would make a mistake would I could be relaxing and or contemplating my next match.
Just stumbled upon this and thoroughly enjoyed it. I played when I was younger but never got so deeply analytic in the game.
Fischer is the only player in history who can make chess look beautiful
what about Tall lol
Chess is beautiful. Full stop.
Watch some of Paul Morphy's games
I paused when you suggested, and pondered, and learned why I'm not a great player,
That's all of us..... Compared to Bobby
neither am i but i got that spawn move right :D the rest of the time i was completly wrong
Me too. But thank you for the video anyway, was really interesting.
Guess you are not Bobby Fisher :1
Is it weird I got the right moves, but I didn’t know the reasoning?
I keep coming back to this game over and over. It is absolutely stunning and shows why Fisher is, in the contexts of his time, absolutely the best player ever.
I think Carlsen beats Fisher like a kid, but we can apreciate Fisher like a one of the best ever

Brilliant and a good lesson and demonstration of mastery! Thanks for sharing! 👏👏👏👍
There was two Grandmasters commentating the game and they thought Fischer was completely lost :)
hahahaha would love to see their faces at the end.
Do you have a video of this?
Pretty sure it was mentioned this chess game was in 1968? Probably wasn't recorded.

Thanks for this, Jerry, what a great game.
When that little *bleep* comes on at the start of your videos, it makes my brain turn on.
It's better than a fanfare!
My favourite chess game from the many I've seen. So brilliant and instructive. Masterly explained in this video. Thanks so much.
This is a brilliant game by Fischer no wonder many consider him the greatest
I'm terrible at chess but I can't tell you how happy I was to correctly guess the right move on turn 19
I remember reading a story about this game, which if true, speaks to the brilliance of the game. The story goes that while the game was being played there were 2 Grandmasters in another room commentating on the game, move by move, to a paying audience. At some point when Fischer was down in material both Grandmasters agreed that Fischer was in a poor position and predicted that within a few moves Fischer would see the light and probably resign. At that very moment Byrne (the player playing Fischer) resigned. I wonder if there's any truth to this story. Anyone know?
Jesus Christ died for your sins please repent for the kingdom of heaven is at handdddd123254978655dc
Probably not true, grandmasters would easily grasp the dynamics of the position
@@chess-intuition It's true. One of the reasons that makes this particular game of Fischer's so special. It won him the brilliancy prize.
True. You can find it in "My 60 Memorable Games" by Fischer
In the mid-1980s, I heard commentators on P.B.S. TV, live, narrating a Karpov-Kasparov championship. The commentator said that one player was ready to resign, and the moment the words came out of his mouth, the other player resigned. Lol. That's why commentators aren't playing in the game.

I ordered his Fischer's Teach's Chess book during 1980 while playing in Chess Club at JCTMS and became chess champion 3 years. I went to public high school but no chess club, now I just play online or at neighborhood place and love it again. Highly recommend his book to anybody.
Great game...amazing ending...and highly useful commentary with an attached 'possible ending too' Great...and thank you! Good to add the 'pgn' moves too with the ECO code as well! nice touch for reference !
Most crushing move by white in this game was resigning 😃
+Wilksuh San Ha! Nice one. Fischer was crushed by white's resignation. 😊
That should be the title to this video
You talented clickbaiter!
I would have taken a 100 out of my pocket and offered it forth right then and there. Let me spank you to completion.
But without white resigning it would have been a measly 25-move brilliancy!
Tip: Speed 1.25
flpsnk4848 came here to say this.
Actually, 2.0
urbs22 nah, 1.25
1.5 is my default speed for all videos. Life is too short!
so why make it shorter?
No matter how many times I view this game it is still just as exciting and wonderful as the first.
Game over 18:28 LOL
"It didn't get that far though"
That's the best part because if Robert had resigned in front of me, I would've called him crazy. But now that you explained everything, it's seems AMAZING!
People in this comment thread are criticizing Jerry because he is being very meticulous in the analysis of this game, but if you're playing a chess tournament and you don't take the time to consider such imbalances, you'll lose just like Byrne!
I think it just sounds a little patronising the way he feels the need to define 'symmetry'. Focus on the differences more instead of articulating exactly what symmetry is and how it applies; acknowledging it and highlighting the contrast is plenty.
As someone who has never really watched professional chess before, i gotta say I am actually quite appreciative for the meticulous breakdown. It points out a lot of the tactics and strategy, symmetry and other stuff going on that I probably wouldn't otherwise notice outside of the obvious - well if this piece goes here, this one can get it then its in a strong position etc. So by all means, continue being meticulous. Not everyone has studied chess extensively and its nice to have some explanation. So I at least appreciate it.
the criticism I've seem is mostly on his delivery, and how often he pauses mid sentence when it isn't needed, and how slowly he talks.
I thoroughly enjoyed the video, but people are right that it could be cut down with no loss of quality. For example, from 4:15 to 6:45, he takes an entire two-and-a-half minutes to say what could have been equally expressed with, "The positions are mirrored nearly perfectly, with only these two pawns and two these knights [*highlight*] in slightly different places."
It felt like someone padding an essay for word count. He didn't need to stop and give a detailed explanation of what 'symmetry' means. Someone who is unfamiliar with the concept of symmetry is not someone who is going to be watching a detailed analysis of a fifty-year-old chess game.

I am certainly one of your legions of fans, always appreciate your insightful commentary!
Really like ur way in making us understand , going to sub u ❤️
Nd3 is almost invisible to spot because instinctively you have two defenders, Qd2 and Rd1, but the problem is that the queen would have to be traded to stop that move and that's losing. So logically, RF1 to D1 seems like a good move because you never think you need an extra defender of the f2 pawn. Truly incredible play from Fischer.
You did a really nice job explains the idea behind the moves. Thank you!
Excellent analysis.
As usual.
Love your arrow graphics.
Thank you for a wonderful presentation of this Immortal Game. 😊
Thank you for analyzing this beautiful game Jerry. Bobby Fischer had such an amazing mind and could literally see things others could not. R.I.P. Bobby.
Thanks for explaining this. With your commentary, each move made perfect sense. I have no idea why this ended up in my feed but I just subbed because you did a great job
Nice. Thank you Ryan. :)
This explanation is another brilliancy.
Thanks a lot for it!
Great chess vid and breakdown
3:59 'We've got a little bit of copycat going on...' *Entire board apart from 2 pieces symmetrical.* 'Now, symmetry is...' *Explains symmetry like we've never heard it before.*

You were looking for some video to help you fall asleep too?
LOL! I just posted a similar comment before reading your comment. I don't know what's going on.
Dude honestly I haven’t watched a chess video or played it on my phone in months and what pops up front and center?? This...
I think it's because google collects cookies and search history and gives suggestions, few days ago i signed up for an online chess website, and today i got suggestion of this video which is very unlikely to other suggestions.
Thought explanations and pace was excellent - the "whys" were clear, and added to my (limited) understanding of the game.
The pace is definitely the worst part
Back then I played chess with my cousins, and I had no clue on what I was doing. But now after playing chess with my best friend I become more interested in chess, just by watching your videos and sometimes you saying "pause the video" I tried to analyze every move that can be a winning move and sometimes I didn't make the right decisions but I'm happy that I'm learning little by little.
👍
Very interesting and well explained.
As a physicists I really appreciate the symmetry
Also I see a lot of commentators saying that you could have Made this video shorter. I am grateful that you take your time to emphasize your point in your videos. No video feels rushed and after watching one of your videos I at least have the feeling that I understood the concepts you were talking about. Thank you Jerry:]

By Byrne resigning when he did ironically shows how good he was.
False. He should have played out. this outcome was not a foregone conclusion. very disappointing
@@Rick-the-Swift Nope. Fischer played 100% perfectly, whereas Byrne made 1 mistake & 2 blunders.
Byrne is getting completely smashed here. Stockfish rates the game at -7. Most GMs tap out sooner.
@@miguelito2361 17:30 white queen to F2 in order to get out of harm from black bishop to H6. Why was this move not considered?? Hardly a forgone conclusion my friend. Had the queen stayed put the black bishop could not have gone there, not without at least two moves from black to protect bishop at H6. I'm sorry but the game should not have been resigned. Fisher still could have made a blunder as he even he was capable of and given momentum back. Byrne's resignations was disappointing and even Fischer said so. But this is also part of Fischer's game- the respect others gave him allowed to achieve both wins and draws often when the games could have gone otherwise.
@@Rick-the-Swift Fischer was only salty because he wasn't allowed to continue to destroy Byrne.
Kf1 Qd7
Qf2 Qh3+
Kg1(forced, essentially) Re8+
Rxe8(forced, essentially) Bxd4
Black's dark-square bishop is now on the same diagonal as white's King & Queen, and although black's d4 bishop is unguarded, the white Queen can't capture it because the white Queen's presence is necessary to prevent checkmate on G2.
White must block the light-square diagonal with their knight or rook on e4 to alleviate this situation with the bishop-backed mate on g2, otherwise it's mate in 3. Unfortunately for white, this means they must lose their Queen to black's dark-square bishop on d4.
Ne4 Bxf2 (bishop captures queen)
Kxf2(forced, essentially) Qxh2
From here, White is down 2 pawns, White has a knight and inactive rook instead of a Queen, White's King is in check, & White's King will continue to face pins & checks while Black continues to take material unopposed.
@@Rick-the-Swift bro I've seen your almost exact same comment up a few comments, bro are you a GM? You think you can outplay a GM? He probably considered it and also -7, let me repeat that _*-7*_! is not a forgone conclusion?
love your commentary, very enlightening. Thanks!
I'll save you some time: 4:30~6:50, The pieces are symmetrical, except for the E-pawns and two knights.
There.
5 seconds.
It's important to note for less experienced players that, in symmetrical cases like this, one should evaluate what the differences are in order to gain insight into both of the players' mindsets up to and from this current point of the game. No need to smallbrain it, just crank that video speed to 2x and maybe gain some perspective you might've missed otherwise.
I was thinking the same thing. This guy needs an editor. We got it the first time.
@@Doc_Fun we didn't need the fold the board in half belaboring
The symmetry was obvious long before he animated the board folding etc
Why don't you make a video? Takes work. The guy isn't doing anything disrespectful yet you feel the need to talk him down.
A wonderful game and a very engaging analysis. Thank yu very much!
The SMARTER move would have been to resign right after Fischer's first move.
Superb commentary. Thanks, Jerry. Your commentaries are perfect for clarifying the positions.
"Your e pawn moved 1 square, I'm gonna show you how to move an e pawn, I'm gonna move 2 squares..", lol, I'm sure that was what Fischer was contemplating.
Inches matter. Um... yeah.
Very well explained. Byrne missed a trick at the very end. Defend with Qf2, let Fischer play out the brilliancy pretending to look puzzled, at the very end stand up with a delighted smile, shake Fischer warmly by the hand in silence, silently sign the core sheet and, with finger to lips move silently to the analysis room. Winning combinations should be played out.

I couldn't figure out why he didn't block check by moving the knight back and defending.
Still my go to best help for learning chess. You've got a gift for teaching Jerry
Thank you 👍
Thanks for the effort you put into this video Jerry
This reminds me of how I usually lose, only it doesn't take that long.
Why am I dumb
It comes from not seeing all of the available moves. Amateur players tend to forget about their pawns after they have started playing the big pieces, but as seen here, the pivotal move was a pawn attacking. Develop your pawns early for the purpose of using them later like Fischer did.
Nice relaxed accurate commentary Jerry
Thank you for presenting this game.
such a great video -- explained everything so well
I actually love that Byrne resigned here. It allows students to study, but most importantly it is a beautiful, simple coda to a brilliant tactical sequence. It is simply "Qd2 - end of game." She hops up one single square, like an elegant stalker of White's King. It's dramatic, subtle, and beautiful.
Grandmaster commentators were lost in the moment, and thought Fischer was in a hopeless position. After both players left the table, they were stunned to learn that it was Byrne who actually resigned the game.
It’s actually Qd7
@@almscurium He failed to see the board was upside down. Doesn't bode well for his chess career.
Should be illegal to resign. In what other sports do people just give up when they realize they won't win?
@@LOLLYPOPPE Chess is first and foremost a game of war. In war, the enemy is allowed the opportunity of unconditional surrender.
@@almscurium Yeah, Qd7! My bad. Fischer was playing black, which makes the game that much better.
Very informative analysis
so educational. i loved everything about it
