This is the story of the birth of modern chess - when the possibilities of chess as an art, a science and a sport all converged.
The point of convergence was a young boy from Louisiana named Paul Morphy. At a time when America was seen as a backwoods nation with little cultural history and even less intellectual impetus, at a time when chess was considered the exclusive property of a few European countries, at a time when the game was played successfully by a handful of men wizened by years, Paul Morphy, in the brief span of 19 months and with seemingly little effort, defeated conclusively every player he met.
While today few non chess players even know his name, he was one of the most famous celebrities of his time and within the hallowed halls of the chess playing community he is considered by some as the greatest chess player of all time.
But this diminutive, unassuming boy rose to fame almost out of nowhere and once he secured his place in history, he retired back into that hazy unknown, shunning the public eye, never again to play serious chess. Not only was he one of great practitioners of the game, but also one of it's greatest enigmas. He's been given the sobriquet, The Pride and Sorrow of Chess.

Harrwitz later told his backers "I don't care, guys. I literally don't care."
He really didnt care
What is there to even care about...🤷🏻♂️
"the game was equal, I don't care! You want to repeat moves to draw on a losing position? Fine! I don't care!"
Smells like hikaru acid
@@gauravjha8938 its a Hikaru reference
Harrwitz: at least nobody will know :)
Agadmator: HELLO EVERYONE
😂 I love this
lol
Over a century later...
Well he DED now so he literally cant even care
@@KillerInstinctCS2 Thanks cap'n obvious
Atleast he said the position was equal. Lowental would have already claimed his victory there
Lol...true
🤣👌🍻
🤣🤣
Harrwitz takes more breaks than me when studying for my exams
🤣
Hahahaha
When you have urgent business to attend to but then you see that Antonio is continuing the good stuff
I'm pretty sure you can watch youtube videos during a bathroom break.
@@Fandartmartiaux what do you think became the coincidental matter of urgent business?
at least he apologizes for messing up your day
@@bilyonarelifestile2226 Like moths to a porch lamp, we are drawn to the good stuff
I come for the chess, but I stay for the comments. Stay wholesome Agad family
Best youtube community hands down ❤️
@@notaleun4012 ......but, I am sorry to ADD, Thumbs UP also !!! Lol !
......please replace "" sorry. "" and , read as "" Happy. "" ! Lol, again !
Harrwitz is the kinda of guy that types EZ after a close 13-12 win.
"Not even close!"
“Oh, it doesn’t take much trouble to beat this fellow!”
Morphy was so ahead of his time and his opponents that his photo went to full color ;-)
I live for the Morphy saga. Any time he doesn’t completely win, it’s a dagger to my heart 😂
Watching excellence is like a drug. And we need that Morphy fix.
Even when I know he's gonna win, I'm on the edge of my seat... always worried for the flighty li'l guy, til he bares his T-Rex teeth
@@rosshewage6893 Even though I know he’s like the greatest player of all time, I still don’t expect him to be the greatest player of all time.
@@curedbytheonomy Only played competitively for 2 years (barely in his twenties), never truly tested, played moves almost instantly - and considered chess "unworthy of serious pursuit". The extent of his genius, sadly, remains "a riddle wrapped up in an enigma" (like, literally ;)
Same here
13:14 "It's very hard to stay sharp when you are so winning"
Translation: It's hard to be a gangsta
So true, tho - it's hard to see the road ahead when you're looking in the rear view mirror
@@rosshewage6893 word.
But damn it feel good
Paul Morphy suffering from sucess
One "Hello everyone!" a day keeps depression away.
one levent a day keeps chess alive
(Doctor’s prescription) “Watch one Agadmator video and call me in the morning”
Morphy's move was the most brilliant move i've ever guessed
[ But, in process of administering the coup de grace, Morphy’s feverish state told upon him, and he committed an oversight which lost him a knight, when within a move or two of winning. It was so stupid a mistake, that he immediately burst out laughing at himself. Harrwitz picked off the unfortunate knight with the utmost nonchalance, as though it were the result of his own combinations, and actually told me afterwards, “Oh, the game was a drawn one throughout.” ]
Who wrote that?
@@FirstNameLastName-tx6td I think it was Morphy’s secretary, Frederick Edge, it is in the Lawson book
"this is a very nice bishop but as long as this knight is on d5 this is not a very nice bishop" -agadmator
He blundered a full piece and still managed to draw. What a beast
I like how agadmator keeps warning us about capturing the d5 pawn
I’d have captured that pawn at least 3 times.
Yet in the comments people still ask about it...
This whole Morphy saga would be perfect for a series (The King's Gambit, anyone?)... There's drama, mistakes, clash of cultures, it's tailor made for TV.
If they actually showed the entire moves of each game with comments on them, unlike in the Queen's Gambit which was only style but no content.
And here I thought that rook check was pretty sick.
Amazing Morphy never ceases to amaze......
"White only has waiting moves.." could also have been the title of this game.
And it was in this position, the good stuff continued.
Harrwitz all the time during the match, "I am gonna lose."
Also Harrwitz, " Huh, The game was pretty equal."
At least he got to say that...
Or else he would have said he is not well yet again..🤷🏻♂️
Morphy saying - Harwitz won't win a single game was the most gangster move.
Moral of the game: Morphy was a human being.
Morphy laughing at hanging a piece while trying to go for checkmate is a big mood
What a strategical masterpiece... the white pawn in d5 just blind the white light square bishop and makes any attack from the center impossible.. #goat games are so deep..loved it
Ah yes the classic Morphy mouse slip
He was lagging
"Al mejor mono se le cae el zapote" goes a famous Nicaraguan saying. "Even the best monkey will drop the zapote" (a fruit.)
6:25 "I know lot of you were thinking about this"-Agadmator the Psychic
Didn't expect to find you here
A position never being reached again ever since 1858 and on only the 8th move in the Dutch Defense, is simply mind-blowing.
Engine didn't prefer nor consider this line as a good variant. That's why no one's play this line nowadays
@@anonymousstout4759 what? No. It wasn’t played anymore because of this game. Why repeat a losing position. That’s how competitive chess works. Or why do you think nobody repeated the position before there were engines?
there's nothing wrong with Black's position after move 8, nor with the Dutch Defense
@@Sur3sh00t I second that.
@@Sur3sh00t I doubt that too, if the engine would have said this was a good position, it would have been played a lot more often, despite this game. Professional chess players don't view things so subjective as you think, they look at statistics. A lost position might have been won if the player played better moves.
Taking breaks, making Morphy play when in fever...makes Harritwz look like a Villain, which..coupled with the awesome comments by Agadmator gives a different look to the videos altogether...
I don't think Morphy minded much playing with a fever, it's not like this is the only time he'd done so
Harrwitz was a money grubber. He had no care for honor or integrity, his passion was all about cash and clout. He was a good player, and a terrible person.
Actually i dont like agad talking sh1t about anyone who is morphy's apponent,
Well harritwz is a legit and strong player who outplayed morphy in first 2 games. It wasnt luck or anything.
Also in those times there was nothing called ELO rating, morphy was atleast 400 points above any player who he faced, so he could play fancy moves and sac pieces.
But against harritwz he lost 2 games cuz he wasnt playing super serious.
I dont like agad talking about him in a bad way. Its not like we know everything about a guy who lived in 1858
@@P.sherman45 I don't think you understand the difference between speaking facts and 'talking shit'.
@@rokanza2293 but in those times everybody was a gentelman.
How can we be sure he really was a cunning person ?
Maybe you are right tho. Maybe its a fact
As someone once said, "Morphy had a weakness in closed games, such as the Dutch Defense" (think it was Fischer but not sure).
“An interesting suicidal leap, insane, but entertaining.”
- One of Chess.com’s rare snarky comments upon blundering a piece in lessons.
Harrwitz is the kind of guy that records fights in portrait mode
8:14
Morphy literally doesn't care about his rook, he literally doesn't care!
I watch each game hoping for more "The engine disagrees with Morphy but Morphy doesn't care. Morphy plays what Morphy wants."
Capturing the White Rook instead by the Black Rook is a check mate in just 2 moves by Morphy!
And now we have the most dangerous Morphy! The Morphy who laughs!
Love the new painting for Morphys picture
Possibly he was covering up for Morphy's blunder. A guy like Harrwitz would want his opponent to do the same for him. But it is evidence that the moves were never recorded until Morphy wrote them from memory later because everyone would see the blunder from the record.
God I can’t believe morphy. Imagine what he would’ve been like if he pursued chess seriously, practiced every day, thought about every move, played for years. The chosen one to beat the engines lived and died before engines were ever conceived. The irony of it all is incredible
Morphy was truly the most gifted chess player who ever lived
This saga is so nice it even has sub-sagas now, like this "match against harrwitz and blindfold simultaneous exhibition"-saga. Thats just great
"For those of you who were able to do it, congratulations on not playing Rook to f1 because this is actually what Morphy played" - Agad roasting the Morphy head
These are great! You should think about inviting some players or actors to reenact some of the scenes you narrate like they do in drunk history 🤣
For once I found the exact continuation as Morphy but we both end up missing the win
The fact that he laughed at his own blunder just makes him a humble player. Not only a genious but also humble, what a gentleman! cannot say the same about Harrwitz...
)Harrwitz(
Another Morphy game another good time
I feel delighted that I thought of the same move that Murphy did. Even though he laughed at it later on.😂
Chess is so cool that we're still analyzing matches from the 1800s
#suggestion
You are doing a remarkable job analysing Morphy's games. In the internet archive there are many old books with his games. Please cover all of them. At least as much as possible. Heartfelt thanks to you Antonio
Thank you for making my Saturday better. I definitely needed it!
man, it’s gonna be so crushing when The Good Stuff™ sage ends after Antonio eventually runs out of morphy games
Harrwitz would be the classic online player now. Absolutely infuriating when you fail to grease the brains of such players, then they mouth off after overkill means you blunder away a winning advantage.
Agad finally growing tired with our idiocy, "I have to repeat this again", "I cannot stress this enough"
Harrwitz seems like he would be pretty fun in parties🤡
It's nice to see a serious player from that era playing D4. It seems like every match from back then begins with E4.
Me: Ahh. I see it. Rook to F1
Agadmator: Congratulations for not playing Rook to F1 which is what Morphy did.
“He fell Asleep near an open window and caught a cold”. Sounds like a statement my grandmother would be proud to make.
Lol
Thats the same comment on the last morphy video
Copy paste, pathetic
I looked at the N and wondered "is Morphy copying my style?"
Me, blundering a winning game: rages and vows revenge
Morphy: laughs and forces a draw
I like this perspective of the board where morphy is playing black and it isnt flipped so we can see how it must have been facing morphy. Makes it more intimidating to see what it is like and what they saw for his opponents to get crushed.
I appreciate the history lessons very much !
Harrwitz was choked up in this game even after playing good moves . I could literally feel Morphy strangulating him ..🤷🏻♂️
Tonight I experienced my friend looking at a chess clock and asking what time it is in a lost position 😂😂
More Morphy Saga please! Dying to know what happens with Staunton, and of course what else our old pesky friend Löwenthal has to say about Morphy's play! 😆
I can gladly say that I am doing the same moves as morphy
I laugh at myself all the time during games. And then my opponent tells me, "sorry about dat."
Yes yes yes the Morphy saga continues
Damn I saw the knight was hanging! He must have been really sick to miss that.
I am more impressed with Morphy's brilliant draw after hanging a piece.
Exactly! Morphy blunders terribly like a 1200 would, and still draws, that's kind of amazing :-)
I will say it: THIS is a much better Morphy pic. In the other one he's such a dandy & Little Lord Fauntleroy. Even a still of the deep fake video you showed would be great.
This is me in a nutshell. I decided to play R-f1+, congratulating myself on playing what Morphy played, & threw away a winning position.
Bring the old black and white pic of morphy back please, we got used to that pic
he was too young on the old one, it didn't resemble him properly as the person playing in Europe, this one's is far more accurate, actually it's the best there is as adult Morphy.
Agad tricked us into thinking there is some sort of move that ends the game on the spot, what a troll :)
1:48 - Harphy - the fusion of Harrwitz and Morphy
lol
Bruh, I’m so happy first time ever that I actually predicted what move wins the game. As a novice I’m pretty happy. Greetings from Serbia btw.
Much love Agadmator!! From me and mines in nigeria,👍👍👍
I haven't watched it yet but I'm so fuckin hype for this one. If Morphy loses I'm gonna launch my rabbit out the window
Ah yes, the good stuff.
started watching these from the beginning a wee while ago. Watched this and thought, 'Hang on, surely that's not the end? He hasn't played Staunton yet, or even finished off Harrwitz!' - then realised that I'm now up to date with where we're up to. Really wondering what happens next...
Is it just me or does Morphy look like a clean-shaved Nicolas Cage, just with what looks like a... ahem... unique triangle hairstyle?
I've seen tones of historical photos and paintings with uncanny resemblance to currently living people. It's nothing new, but sometimes creepy...
The "HELLO" always hits difference 😂
Me waiting whole day for this game.
Agadmator came at 12:30 a.m. : Hello everyone 😭😭
Me : Hold my sleep.😔
I never imagined in the span of 19 months so much was created
months
@@davidmikan7925 oh sorry haha
When you blunder once a tournament, it can be funny. When you almost every game, less so.
Always remember the game never starts at the beginning of the video
The pride and sorrow.....of memes.
Blind spots and misses like that, no matter what caused them, do happen and to the best of us! All one can do is laugh, as that's better than crying! Lol, gg, thx.
I see it as a part of the mindgame. You focus your opponents attention to one side of the board until seamlessly moving a piece on the other side trying to open a pin or something.
@@MDMAx Yeah distracted by that and not having full-board awareness, at all times! Thanks.
Reassuring that even Morphy can make mistakes, although he might have to be ill to do that ... (His opponent is coming across as rather a devious slime ball !!).
But great game and excellent analysis, thanks.
Damn incredible game by Morphy throughout just that one oversight cost him.
I think morphy was studying my end game skills
Never thought one day i see a winning move that morphy didn't play and missed(ofcourse he saw it!)then again i didnt saw what he had in mind...another beauty which went to waist...
Existential question: did Morphy exist just so Agad could comment on him 150 years later?
He pulled a Naroditsky...
He felt sorry for him and gave Harrwitz a knight out of the kindness of his heart.
Then Drew the game after having a completely winning game.
You have to do video on Magnus’ second to last game in the titled arena, he had a beautiful mate against Andrew tang
Use #suggestion so he sees it :)
Everybody is gansta until Morphy appears
4:19 agadmator -this is a good bishop . . me - not capturing knight . . played a silly move and got my king and queen forked!!!!
Harrwitz vs Morphy is actually a bit closer than the overall tournament score shows. Morphy is definitely the better player, but even just one suboptimal move by Morphy can lead to a draw or loss, which always makes series like this very enjoyable. :)
but that "one suboptimal move" should've been the coup de grace after a positional onslaught, instead of an outright piece-dropping blunder. If Morphy had played the right move instead, this game would've looked like a master-class take down - hence Morphy's self-ridiculing laughter.
That “one suboptimal move” thing applies to virtually every chess game...
It doesn’t matter if Harrwitz said it’s equal when he keeps losing.
I am kind of proud to say I came up with the same move as Morphy (kind of...)
This is it. The good stuff
