Fischer achieved a rating of 2785 without engines, data bases or computers. That is the most astonishing fact in the history of chess.😮

[@snippletrap]

Morphy’s accomplishment may be greater, since he did not have the competition Fischer had to spur him on

[@thechuckberryfan98]

But is 2785 yesterday the same as 2785 today? Or does the Elo score value fluctuate like currencies of money?

[@JulesMoyaert_photo]

Too often forgotten!

He was as crazy as they come, but unmatched in chess forever. His understanding of chess was incredible for the time. Coming from a 1500 player 😊

[@paulvbennett]

I really appreciate your focus on chess games from the Fischer era. No engines, just pure talent. Like so many of my generation (b1954), the Fischer/Spassky match was the catalyst for chess players to become more involved with organised club chess and tournaments. Your style is very calm and informative unlike other channels which seek to sensationalise top players. Keep it up chessdawg, and we will keep watching.

[@andreasandre4756]

The rating is not everything, because it is calculated based on constant winning results at a specific time: Magnus's rating is higher, but it is not a fact that he is better than Fischer or Kasparov.

Better Call ChessDawg!

[@Amer1kop]

Haha the resemblance to Bob Odenkirk is uncanny

[@bitsplayground_]

Better call Saul 😂😂

[@TruthSurge]

I have a question. Why is this channel so criminally undersubbed? Your game analysis is clear and well-paced with a few alt lines thrown in that don't go on forever. ? Maybe people need more comedy and drama so they prefer those channels? I just subbed so now it's 19K + 1. :)

[@chessdawg]

Thank you for your kind words.

@00:42 FWIW, a quick google says: The proper pronunciation of the word "fianchetto" is fee-ahn-KET-toh. The first syllable isn't "fie", and the "ch" is pronounced as a hard c, as in the word "cat".

[@cpaniaguam]

People can pronounce stuff however they want, especially in the US where chessdawg (and I) is (are) from.

[@hanswust6972]

Right, it's Italian and means _small flank._

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one surprised by that 😂

[@Amer1kop]

Love this channel - dude tells great stories about the game and tactics, very interesting and exciting

[@denisrho1019]

Great comments and nice description! Your smile says it all; when everything unfolded the wrong side for black.

[@Tod_oMal]

Bobby just plays one simple and logical move after the other. Like Capablanca. Why looks Chess so easy and when we play we suck? Makes me feel sad and stuppid.

[@sutto3]

😂

[@sutto3]

Awesome review like usual 🙏🏻

[@jeffersonthomas1269]

Highly efficient review as is the norm on the Dawg.

[@thechuckberryfan98]

Thank you for this content. To me, Bobby Fischer has been the most famous of the chess players, and I’ve wondered I didn’t hear more about Tal, but this video adds on in the right direction 😊

[@Galileosays]

Very instructive game against Dutch GM Jan-Hein Donner, who was also writer and chess columnist. He once wrote: "It is mainly the irreparability of a mistake that distinguishes chess from other sports.", which illustrates this game too. At the age of 11 and youngest among the other 39 players I played against him in a clock simul in 1973. I lost after 20 others, which probably made me a chess addict.

[@user-jg3ux2jf3l]

Thank for this games. I like them.

[@markiyanhapyak349]

Fischer shall NEVER end to surprise......!!! What a LEGENDARY GENIUS…!…!…!

[@yuezhao4576]

Hi Dawg, I love your channel very much! Thank you! Just wondering why white did not play e5 at 5:49? Thanks again!

[@banzaiburger9589]

Having all your pieces in optimal squares is a beautiful sight 😊

[@Tod_oMal]

I think one of the keys of the match have been both black bishops. Maybe unnoticed but much stronger than the pair of white bishops. Together with the knight on c4, they decided the match.

[@thomasherbst6771]

I'd like to have the chance to make a move like bishop g2 - and then watch my opponent's face...

[@thomasherbst6771]

Another very good selection of games. A warning to everyone not to overstretch your position.

[@andreasandre4756]

We don't think so, although Fischer was one of the best. In general, no chess player achieves perfection. However, we compared two games between Petrosian and Fischer in 1959 and Petrosian and Kasparov in 1981. Fischer - 16 and Kasparov -17. In general, it is not comparable to chess. But based on these games we made a comparison. The young gentlemen lost to Petrosyan. 1- Fischer played smoothly and carefully, with smart combinations, but lost the game with full knowledge of his mistakes. 2- Kasparov was more tactical and impatiently attacked endlessly until he unexpectedly lost the game. It is now clear that both of these players were top superplayers, although they lost their game. In our opinion; Fischer is considered a more self-controlled chess player. - An advantage in chess. Kasparov is more impatient - A disadvantage in chess. Who is the best is up to you to judge. Success.

[@davidplane8888]

Instead of Queen e2 maybe Qb3

[@rpralica]

and let's see who is the GOAT .Magnus ?? According to Fischer, Magnus is an average player even though he is a really great player.
