[@nigelawson5524]

Except most people would tend towards one with no talent or understanding of what I'm doing, when describing my chess

[@fischernilsen6864]

Me too bud..

[@Curious_Crow]

Quite a class answer i think.

[@sawyer9times]

Hell yeah

[@shritan0]

Yes except he has talent unlike me...

[@tuirfghfhg1787]

Childhood is idolizing Morphy and Tal, adulthood is realizing that Karpov made more sense

[@taco6649]

First time I saw Tal, I thought "But what if they did play good against him? He would usually lose. I prefer to play correctly and at the end, just let the advantage work.

[@utsavnayakxii-c8731]

Karpov is the better player. Morphy and Tal are more talented.

Karpov's one of the top 5 legends of chess. It's definitely worth mentioning he won the most grandmaster tournaments in history.. I think most People do not know this amazing fact

[@perry-4444]

whoa nice

[@plasmaastronaut]

1. Magnoooooooos 2. Kramnik 3. Garry 4. Fischer 5. Anand 6. Karpov he misses out by one

[@user-svqmbiv]

He did have a very long chess career

[@warcrimeenjoyer4207]

He also made a toddler cry

[@nguyenquangminh5119]

@@plasmaastronaut Karpov wins more tournaments than Anand, wins more world championships than Anand (he has 6 and Anand has 5), has a higher (projected) peak elo than Anand (Karpov is estimated 2820 peak and Anand is 2817), Karpov reigned as World Champ for 18 years while Anand reigned for only 9 years. So, in terms of achievements, Karpov would eat Anand for breakfast. Not sure if you're ignorant or you're a mega biased Indian yelling and over-praising for anything remotely Indian .

[@Greenlion781]

I feel like Karpov's highlight reel is the most instructive, because instead of bombastic theatrical combinations, these are actually concrete concepts that you can look for in real practical games.

[@torstencuber9114]

Dear Simon, first of all thanks for the idea of presenting us the most brilliant moves of the great chess players. It's every time a pleasure to hear you commenting the essence of the moves. Maybe you can present us a new category : The most difficult moves to find for computers That would be great. To see, where the chess engines failed, whereas man found the brilliant way to win. Your fan from Germany, Torsten

[@prabaharanaece]

I am sure computers won't predict some moves of Karpov

[@davidattar8720]

the computers don't fail. they're in a different league that us. It's like a runner and a racing car

[@vidishmishra6659]

The game of Anand vs Nepo in which Nepo resigned after 17 moves, some computers fail to find the 14th move and consider it blunder... and some fast computers find it after taking some time...

[@Pilotprox]

Karpov moves are more astonishing

[@n8style]

gotta love Karpov for the variety of positional and tactical and just plain weird moves that actually work

[@moonboy5851]

I absolutely love Karpov.

[@afganitia]

Incredible moves. Very well explained too. I would have liked The first move to be explained more, but good nonetheless. The fourth game is a classic. The endgame one is absolutely majestic. The last one is one I have never seen before and highly instructive.

[@sergiocanoalhambra1794]

I have always preferred Karpov to Kasparov simply because it has a much more understandable game plan and you can quickly understand what are his intentions with every move

[@Bibo-gj2le]

he wasn't even at my top10 untill i've gone through his career and analyzed some of his famous games, and even when he joins spectators in chess24 he is simply waaay ahead of them at his 70's finding best moves in seconds he is now top3. i think if he was given a chance to face fisher he could actually win! all love and respect for him

[@donkbonktj5773]

Nah Fischer would probably win the 75 match.

[@lucasart05]

Love this series! Pls continue it!

[@lucasart05]

I love all the moves in the series!

[@Evilanious]

Pretty good examples of the power of seeing what your opponent would like to do and sabotaging that, as opposed to just following your own gameplan.

[@farzadsadri3094]

That was one of the best chess videos I've ever seen! Simply amazing. Karpov and kasparov's games are more enjoyable to watch than those of magnus's

[@MultiFirefox23]

From watching Karpov and Fischer best moves, I could see why the former could've been a serious threat to the latter. I mean, Karpov was a positional player that contrasted Fischer's style. If they played, I would put my money on Anatoly Karpov.

[@avishddutta9025]

They didn’t exactly contrast. People were fans of Fischer’s attacking, dynamic play. However, in terms of style, he was a mix of both calm and dynamic play. Both Karpov and Fischer were excellent positional players, at least in my opinion.

[@cassiuscramos]

As a local and state junior champion, I "grew up" in chess during the Karpov-Kasparov eras. As a kid, before the Internet, it was so exciting getting hands on a new Chess Informant edition and seeing all those super tournament with games annotated by both super GMs at their peek.

[@isaacmorales830]

[@dougveganparadisebuilder5808]

You Ginger GM presents chess in a refreshing, entertaining and educating way. Hats off.

[@mindsharping]

Thanks for this non-mainstream video. Please publish more on Karpov, there is so little on the net about his subtle brilliance, which is so easy to miss for players of my calibre. Best of luck .

[@pucek365]

I think that good measure of his brilliancy is the fact that all of these moves are hidden very deep in positions and yet he finds them

[@davidattar8720]

I'm having so much fun watching all the series thank you grand master Simon Williams!

[@fess04]

that was great. Karpov is becoming my fav fast.

In the last one, I thought of Rf3, then Rxf3, Bxf3, Qxf3. And may be this is the reason why Karpov played bishop first- Rf3, g4, Rxf5, exf5.

The bishop "sacrifice" was wild

Can you do a video on Chandler v Karpov, Bath 1983? It has a special meaning for me, maybe the first grandmaster game that I analysed as a child. Maybe it is not his most famous game, but it did win a beauty price in that tournament.
