    I read somewhere, many years ago, a quote attributed to Steinitz in his later years, to the effect that.....I MAY BE A TIRED OLD LION, BUT IF YOU STICK YOUR HEAD IN MY MOUTH, I WILL BITE IT OFF.

  • @gastibeltza6535

    Steinitz has an even more beautiful and romantic game, played against non other than the legendary Lasker, way after he beat Steinitz as world champion, when Wilhelm was already an old man. Steinitz actually sacrificed a bishop at the beginning of the game, just to get some strategical advantage against Lasker's castling. It's definitely worth seeing.

  • @marcjohn9404
    @marcjohn9404 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    A lot of hate for Steinitz, but some of the biggest legends in the game thought very highly of him. He might have been the guy who made Chess more boring and positional, but if he didn't make positional Chess popular, then someone else definitely would have as a way to counter all of the gambit-heavy romantic styles of the day. He was a great player too, he dominated his opponents and honestly if he had access to the knowledge and everything else that players after him did, I see no reason why he still wouldn't be a great player today. Maybe he wasn't as good as Morphy, though.

    Steinitz did not kill romantic chess. He killed stupid chess.

    May be that's why Bobby Fischer liked Steinitz moves so much.

  • @Kenney9120
    @Kenney9120 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    William Steinitz recognized the importance of positional play. Eventually, someone was going to figure it out. Positional and tactical play are both important. Although, according to Kasparov, chess is mainly about tactics and I won't argue with a world champion.

    • @marcjohn9404
      @marcjohn9404 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      He was quite old and had been the top chess player in the world for about 30 years by the time Lasker managed to dethrone him in 1894. He was a great player who changed Chess forever, ever if his games are considered boring.

  • @cameronsmith9448
    @cameronsmith9448 7 ปีที่แล้ว +40

    It’s a good game but I prefer the beautiful games that are a result of a genius strategy, as opposed to simply playing a weak opponent. That’s why I love Ivanchuk’s games on your channel.

    you can't consider this as a great game, white was playing very badly. Several queen and bishop moves and losing pawn for no initiative - that's not how you play chess

    3:02 12. Nd2, Nd7 13. Bg3, c5 14. Qxd5+, +7.6 advantage for taking pawn and forking king and rook with control of the most powerful squares on the board. I felt immense pain as you suggested this.

    The criticism of Steinitz in the late 19th century amounted to anti-semitism. Killed the Romantic era of chess? In other words, they couldn't beat him.

    @chessislife3429 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love modern games more and more these days because they are simply better chess. The beauty arose from better chess is supreme than those games that seem a bit beautiful geometrically but in actually fact are just because of the weakness of the players.

      I believe he is a Croat. Most of the young people on the Balkan speak more than decent English, due to influence from movies, tv shows, video games, and the fact that we start to learn the language since we are 8-9 years old :)

    Hi! I started playing chess like 3-4 days ago and I find your channel interesting. I was wondering what books have you read or what sources have you been using to learn chess. It's really hard for me. I think a lot on a move and still do it wrong. I suppose the time will make me better, but I really think that some good books will be really helpful.
    Thanks advance!
