I found it,I will play a silly move in move one, and then it will be as if I have black!!! Genius me!!!

Never ever again apologize for a "longer" video. Just don't do it. We love the background, we love the analysis, we love the alternate plays, we love it all.
Morphy's e3 move in this game has to be one of my favorite moves in competitive chess history. It's subtle yet deadly, invisible upon first glance yet obvious in retrospect.
I once had a chess teacher that actually taught us: "1. a3 is the best move, because that way white can play as if it were black, which is better." He played it back then (when he was 2000+) and he played it in the 2019 World Senior Championship. Just to be clear: I had forgotten his name, but I found him because of his opening - he plays every single game with white that way.
@@BlueEyes-WhiteDrag0n It was for a single year, now over 20 years ago when I was 10. Do you remember the name of every teacher you ever had in school, even those you had only for a year and who didn't teach you anything? Because chances are you think you do but still forgot a few.
These two legends always go for the craziest position .they truly enjoyed their time so much playing awesome chess .and again that's the good stuff !!! Thanks for the awesome content agadmator
This was an enjoyable game! Thanks! "How many of us would not place the knight on e5? But not Anderssen! He is a true gentleman." I laughed at that one!
I normally root for Morphy during this saga, but this time I feel really sorry for Andersen - it seems he was too ambitious to consider anything less than a victory and that's how he pushed it too far. It would have been nice if he won this game and got the match that much more competitive I feel :) Thanks for the great video!
After the subtle black pawn move it all just unraveled for Andersen .. They really need to make a movie about Morphy.. would be an awesome period piece.. New Orleans, Paris, London .. even Opera Houses .. and the fact it all this occurred in such a short time span with Morphy retiring so young .. the real question is who will play Morphy on the big screen ? Tom Holland perhaps ? Suggestions ?
Gosh, what a wonderful game ! But I do feel that Andersen is feeling the pressure of his losses and not always playing with full confidence in his own abilities. Also, as Agad says, he rather desperately wants a win and so doesn’t pursue Drawing chances.
Thanks for this saga, Agad. All the Bronstein quotes make me wonder; have you considered doing a saga on him? He was a very imaginative player-- lots of fun games to choose from.
I love the jokes at the "pause the video" moments. They make you jolt back and second-guess yourself for a moment because they are such strong players.
11:45 agad: try to find the amazing move me: b2 check looks amazing agad: this is what anderson played and it’s not the winning move me: of course it’s not, duh
Great video, I really enjoy these chess-history lessons. Also checked out the game you mentioned, it was a rollercoaster. I think if you're out of video ideas, a similar saga about Adolf Anderssen could be epic. With your storytelling, for sure. (I rarely comment, but this is the channel I always check out first when I want to watch someting. Great work my dude.)
4:10 I'm probably missing something but it doesn't feel like exf3 en passant and Bxf3 works. Bxf3 allows Qh4+, either breaking the castle, or forcing white to go g3 Bxg3+ etc. Maybe Nxf3 is the line Agad meant to go through, it stops Qh4+. I might very well be wrong
18:43 Man nobody has ever crushed my happiness as much as agad did there by saying queen to g7 is too cool to play. I thought it could turn into a winning idea. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
anderson does seem to love attacking a little too much :) the trouble is morphy is now making a bigger shield for himself and letting anderson waste his troops in pushing his latest attack...its just a little too slow..although anderson is making himself some interesting chances, which he then misses :)
Question from a novice: At 11:47 are you allowed to capture the black pawn in the middle of the board with the pawn to the right via en passant. Then check ...
@@Curovicky White opens with a1, Anderssen opening or either h1, clemenz opening, then black defends with e5, white then plays either h1 or a1, depends on what was his first move, and moves forward a pawn in front of other rook aswell, and then black plays d5. That is called anderssen opening, creepy crawly formation.
Great game!. Although 1 a3!? is indeed a very non-enterprising move for White (basically is trying to play as black with an extra tempo), it can yield, nonetheless, a playable game, and white will have less trouble equalizing. Later on in the match (spoiler alert), Anderssen managed to win a beautiful game after equalizing and stopping a mating attack by Morphy, getting a superior endgame. Of course, almost nobody plays this as white these days, but it indeed yielded an interesting game in this case, with winning chances for both sides, but, sadly for Anderssen, he didn't have the push to find the winning or drawing ideas in the critical moments of the game. What this game shows is that if you let Morphy slide, he WILL crush you. Thanks for the video, Antonio!.
"Marmaduke" is his first name - so it should be "Marmaduke Wyvill" not the other way around . Marmaduke was a common first name in 19th Century England. Nowadays you would get laughed at if you told people that that is your name . Adolf used to be quite a common first name for men too .....
It seems that Morphy and his great chess prowess cannot match Ivanchuk and his ability to walk the king up the board in the middle game and keep him safe.

It's really goofy when you think about it
You are a funny guy

The most impressive part of this video is learning that there was a real human person named Marmaduke Wyvill.
OMG right I didnt even notice last time until he actually said his name 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mrs Wyvill's baby received his handle in 1815, one of his descendants copped it as well, but since then Marmadukes are few and far between, apart from a cartoon dog.
Sounds like a miniboss in witcher 3 or something
His signature move was to sit on the board, scattering the pieces and forcing his opponent to cry MARMADUUUKE! (In resignation)
It is odd that a person with such a name, playing against Adolph Anderssen in a championship match, isn't more well known.
Anderssen was a great strategist. I think if he didn't constantly want to create an enjoyable masterpiece his score would be better against Morphy.
I was also thinking this andersn guy just enjoys playing, & not about winning
@@Justforwatching364 For sure. They had much more honor back then
@@rob4419 those golden times!!🤗

This game feels like a Game of Thrones episode. It seems like Anderssen dominates, but suddenly his ambition makes him lose the game
Season 4 Episode 8 (I think) - The Mountain and The Viper. Oberyn's death still hurts my soul.

Also Anderssen: 1.a3
That was...a psychological attack :)
Ngl, this is the thumbnail I was waiting for in a classic Anderssen match
Anyone else LOL at "not Anderson, he is a true gentleman" in regards to his commitment to not playing Ne5
Me Lmao💀
yes and agad's smirk while he says it
Yes, it’s the ones that catch you off guard that getcha
Morphy's e3 move in this game has to be one of my favorite moves in competitive chess history. It's subtle yet deadly, invisible upon first glance yet obvious in retrospect.
I can't believe how good that move is. It's a position where you feel the need to DO SOMETHING, yet the right answer is a little pawn move?
I can't believe that I found it (rarely do I find the best move), after I guessed it I kept seeing how devastating it was.
It's definitely not a coincidence that the two best chess players of their time are also quite honorable gentlemen who do gentlemenlike stuff
Chess players are pretentious af bro
This video really shows how Antonio analyses games.....like a grand master
I once had a chess teacher that actually taught us: "1. a3 is the best move, because that way white can play as if it were black, which is better."

Just to be clear: I had forgotten his name, but I found him because of his opening - he plays every single game with white that way.
If you plays better as black this is true lol. My win rate with black is like 5% higher than white. I'm really shit at attacking.

anderssen is a pretty underrated chess player
such an interesting take on how to attack
not as accurate but great to watch
Who's "andersen"?

These two legends always go for the craziest position .they truly enjoyed their time so much playing awesome chess .and again that's the good stuff !!! Thanks for the awesome content agadmator
This saga is just the best, keep up with the most amazing content!
Agad: "Who wouldn't put the knight on e5?"
My dumb ass: "Haha just take bishop i have bishop for knight"
I still don't think that's dumb. ... That's bad for me, right?
Superb game and the best compliment I can pay you is that the commentary did it justice. Bravo Antonio.
I'm really enjoying your coverage of this match. It's making me appreciate just how worthy an opponent Anderssen was.
This was an enjoyable game! Thanks!

Thanks for the great video!
That was genuinely great and a highly enjoyable watch.
This entire series is just the best! Well done, Agadmator.
Those 4 pawns at 6:04 look so mesmerizing.
Anderssen is quickly becoming one of my favorite players. Elegant and aggressive, he plays very balsy.
"Mystery of 1.a3 revealed"
All 200's: Not really.
Really great game! That was actually Morphy’s fourth consecutive victory (games 3-6)
I badly wanted to know lowenthal's comment on a3! 😂
He probably called it the losing move.
Your presentation was thoroughly enjoyable as was this game.
Mazing game. My hat is off to Anderssen for such a sharp line. The subtle positional lines both players saw is truly ageless.
The most amazing analysis of the most amazing game. Perfect.
And it was during this chess match that Lowenthal bought some great agadmator merch.
At Lone Pine II, Duncan Suttles (Canada) began 1.a3 against Lothar Schmid (E. Germany), and it went 1...,g6 2.b4, Bg7 3.Ra2.
After the subtle black pawn move it all just unraveled for Andersen ..
They really need to make a movie about Morphy.. would be an awesome period piece..

The whole games is on fire 🔥
title should have been "The true gentleman's game."
Felt good remembering silent Rad1 from Evergreen game
I always like the pause the video moment. It is like we are playing without a clock also.

Gosh, what a wonderful game ! But I do feel that Andersen is feeling the pressure of his losses and not always playing with full confidence in his own abilities. Also, as Agad says, he rather desperately wants a win and so doesn’t pursue Drawing chances.
What a rollercoaster of missed chances, i love those Morphy games tho :-)
You can see so much how fisher played like morphy.. it’s obvious why he was fishers favorite player ..
e3 simply sublime. thank you for this series :)
Accurate play is required to sustain an advantage against Morphy, the great punisher.
18:40
Made me laugh so hard. Agad really pulled a sneaky.
"Congratulations on finding the incredible queen to B2 check"
*Thinking I finally solved one of Antonio's puzzles*
"And this is not the winning move."
Same here!
Thanks for this saga, Agad. All the Bronstein quotes make me wonder; have you considered doing a saga on him? He was a very imaginative player-- lots of fun games to choose from.

11:45

One thing i realized after watching agadmator
........all rook lifts are"VERY NICE😌"
23:36 you dont have to say sorry for making my day
I felt so proud for finding Qb2 at 11:53 until he added "and this is not the winning move" 😪
We should award Anderssen with a Morphy head.
Great video as always. Do you happen to know what notation the players used to record the game? Thanks!
I was truly shocked when anderssen played K h1. What a giant that we stand on
It was a fantastic match.
6:18 I spotted a trick here-
Play Qxd8 then Rxd8 then play e6 then the queen is pinned to the king hence we are up material!
Damn! Nice one
@@satyamsharma2555 Thanks!
black plays Qe3 check , you lose your queen for a rook sac and thats all
@@RipperMatricus Hmm Didn't see that though thanks anyway
Please correct me if I'm wrong but in the 1850s the opening a3 is not a3, but rather QR3, and therefore definitely not Anderson's initials.
that pawn stayed there the whole game..
Oh wow I saw both moves, the one anderssen played and the winning one, those were my top 2 moves
I think that alpha zero is doing the same, but it plays night f3 and then goes for Sicilian defense.

That e3 move was beautiful

wow. that's the most entertaining game of chess i ever saw
at 7:56 instead of pushing c6 why not b5 it would attack the knight and it is pinned coz queen on a2 is undefended
Epic game and video. Btw is Anderssen rook from a1 to d1 from his game against kiseritsky?
First positional player, Morphy. Greatest of all time.
