[@blazecole6376]

@Soren Maximilian instablaster :)

[@sorenmaximilian1534]

@Blaze Cole Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@sorenmaximilian1534]

[@usfazli]

Kingscrusher the greatest chess channel ever seen . You've contributed enormously for chess players all around the world Thanks a million

[@DerekCook]

man I miss Kasparov's games. I remember back in college when I used to skip class to watch some of his games in big tournaments ..........

[@nickb6138]

The great Kasparov. My favourite chessplayer of all time. As a side note, on the first game against Topalov, after the initial Rxd4! you mention Kb6 as a way of sidestepping the King hunt. Kasparov is credited with the following quote: "I couldn't find any advantage for White after 24...Kb6! 25. Nb3 Bxd5 and I could tell Topalov saw it too...But he looked up. Maybe he got a sign from above that he should play a great game. It takes two, you know, to do that."

[@harrysbleton7174]

Nick B nice words

[@manuG.G]

In 38:06 Kasparov said that taking with the bishop in an "unforgivable mistake". If you take with the rook: Rxg6 is mate in the next move just by removing the rook from ist square. And actually, Karpov resigned after the impressive move Qxh6.

[@Columbine-en3qc]

38:06 there is another line: rook takes queen, knight to e7, rook takes knight, bishop takes, and it's a mate by just simply removing the rook.

[@mohit24dec]

12:52 -- Ne1(luring), Rook(d1 or f1) takes Knight at e1, e8 takes e1, Rook takes back e1; c8-c2 could really win the white queen. /// After Ne1 if qd2 then Knight can either take the g2 (leaving Be4 check open and later Nd7-Ne5 can be played to control f3 square and even leaving option Ne5-Nd3 open) or Knight can simply restore its position back to d3. However, it seems worth trying the queen trap without losing anything positionaly or otherwise.

[@elmoro78]

This serie is really a joy to watch. I remember Miguel Najdorf writing that Kasparov was going to be a good father. Because he treated all of his sons the same way. (Clarin, 1994 ca). I'm translating on the fly so I don't know if that makes any sense. Anyway. Thank you very much and I could suggest a few more briliances by this guy but that's because he's one of my favourite players. Great job.

[@debeastdueeast]

It's good to note that, at 38:05, You could play Rxg6, as Kasparov himself pointed out was an "unforgivable mistake" in another video on KZbin, as any Rook move afterward mates.

[@johnmichaeltwist5086]

Please consider punctuation effort.

[@TempterMan]

Yes, you are right! Well pointed!

[@debeastdueeast]

John Michael Twist Huh? My punctuation wasn't too bad I think.

[@MrBaroquer]

It is just a beautiful triumph of Kasparov's great mind which is so inspiring.

[@BentHestad]

Thanks for super series with top sacrifices of the worlds best players! Love it!

[@JonathanPlumber]

Massive game, Kasparov showed elegance and poise with fearless determination

[@VenkatesanS]

Well annotated kc, best of this series so far

[@canman1878]

@42:00 black refuses to trade queens, would black not have a strong counter play trying to promote the queen side pawns after a exchange? It seems that black could defend whites E pawn?

[@technowey]

Great video. Thanks! At 29:55, after ... g7+, Kf2 Re1!

[@Narrowcros]

Would love to see one on Anatoly Karpov

[@andelyolo5231]

At 53:20 What happens if queen takes rook, and when the other rook takes the queen, then the pawn can capture queen, since it's not pinned anymore? Being a hole rook up.

[@knutolav8482]

If black plays Qxc8 at 53:02, I think Rxb2 is a mate in two. If the knight takes the rock, queen takes is a mate, and if the king moves, queen a8 seems to be a mate.

[@ToxicallyMasculinelol]

what if at 38:53 black promotes b1? i can't see too many variations but he isn't immediately losing his queen is he? like making any other move at this point causes you to lose the game or lose the ability to ever promote that pawn. if i'm gonna lose a game to garry kasparov i'd like to be able to say "but hey, at least i promoted a passed pawn"

[@DrPunch-mo9qh]

Can't promote the B pawn because you are in check after king's move, bishop to A2 guarding the b1 square if knight capture the bishop rook will take the pawn.

[@AlonsoRules]

that octopus knight is crazy!!

[@ClaireBear8686]

38:07 Kasparov even said he had a forced mate after rook takes queen. All he has to do after rook takes queen is move the rook.

[@edwinguzman6589]

Garry K, one of the illest and sickest on the board. Chess Masters officially!

[@samserjem]

Superb series

[@paulgoogol2652]

Seeing Kasparovs Ba8 reminds me of a rapid game of him in a TV show where Short played very dull and solid stuff. With Ba8 Kasparov avoided repetition and played a really fishy sac to lose the game :-) but he won the match like 6-2. He seemed quite arrogant and I like it.

[@iNemoden]

1:25 would rook on e7 be the option as well? If queen takes it, Kc6. If Rd7, Kasparov can take it instantly. The best option in this case for the opponent would be Qb6, but now Kasparov can take f7 and this is would the dangerous spot for the blacks. (P.S. don't know what happens next, you proposed to think what the next move will be and I paused the video at 1:25 ).

[@CarobnjakML]

queen takes rook becouse c6 is covered by bishop at a8

[@edwardalexandercrowley42]

It is understandable why everybody was envious of Kasparov!

[@manikrishnan]

@47:22 why not rook g8 instead of d8 ???

[@Toonamik]

what is this program called where you can move pieces freely?

[@costy1viorel]

08:02 i think good is Qg1+,Ke2,Qxh1 etc..is ok??

[@GoonCity777]

Who do you think could be another guy to do sacrifice videos of? Nakamura? As always, what a great way to always end my night!

[@90blacknight]

How many times have we seen Kasparov launch the "g" pawn?

[@DeanKellam]

I love your videos Kingscrusher your commentary makes me moist :-) . Garrys Immortal Game its like I learn something different everytime I see it. Yesterday I won my first Blindfolded game against a novice player. What do you think of blindfolded chess?

[@rocyahsoul]

Cool video. Thanks.

[@mmontone]

The multiple times offered knight sacrifice against Korchnoi is missing here. This was great anyway!

[@manikrishnan]

54:32 why not Knight check ???

[@albibushi3006]

why didn't Karpov exchange his light square bishop with the octopus knight by going to e2 instead of fianchettoing????

[@maartenh94]

The second gambit is commentated by kasparov himself, on youtube! very interesting

[@SolemnHeretic]

Kasparov may or may not be the greatest player of all time, but he was most definitely the most entertaining to watch.

[@whippetsareawesome2458]

true dat

[@MsPietpaaltjes]

He dominated for over 20 years he certainly is one of the if not the greatest

[@3blaireau]

Classic!

[@XigbarXIII1]

the best of all

[@abdullahabed5173]

Its your explanation totally. I couldn't understand what did kasparov did!!!!!

[@parththakkar9383]

Kasparov-Anand '95 Championship ; in the final position, ....b3 f6+ Kf8 Bh5, what if a*b2?? If e6, ...N*e6 (not .... a1=Q running into e7+ Kg8 e8=Q#) R*e6 Re1+ (not ....a1=Q because of Re8#) Be2 a1=Q ?!!

[@jitendrarankhambe2236]

when he played in 3rd game (here) ----- Qxd6, Rxh7+ Kg8 after this dont take Pxf7 play Rg7 mate! I think you are missing here.

[@mrd8376]

King could just go back to h8, so it's not mate

[@atakantursunov7083]

the best player ever been. Genius

[@DeanKellam]

I won my first blindfolded game yesterday :-) What do you think of Blindfolded Chess Kingscrusher.

[@ZekkeAsakura]

You dont see things like this nowadays

[@whippetsareawesome2458]

* mind blown *

[@whippetsareawesome2458]

[@whippetsareawesome2458]

Whippets are AWESOME! *blows up again* x8

[@glenfordbangguiyao9924]

Chess players must be geniuses

[@timyleizah3243]

wow

[@gigdodd]

It's nice to be rook up - true story

[@pulkitgoyal7540]

Your videos are great. But unfortunately they are a little too long... Please keep them 20 mins- please. Thanks :)

[@Maddolis]

Easy to counter, simply close the video at the 20 minute mark.

[@alekcroteau396]

nice video, Genius kasparov... YOUR MOUTH NOISES ARE ANNOYING ...

[@hobit7585]

There is no point in giving time to someone on video.We can pause it and get as much time as we like regardless if you gave time or not or even warn us about it.It's null.

[@ales-rocks]

+Hob iT however these are streamed first, so it makes sense for audience watching the stream.

[@libertyprime9307]

+Aleš Najmann You can pause the stream too.

[@michael2305]

kasparov makes us all realize what simple mofos we really are... sigh
