[@gastonzamora4985]

The most amazing thing about world class chess is how minimizing damage isnt enough, in that whole sequence unless Kasparov blunders real bad Karpov had no chance of coming back into the game, and thats extremely surprising at world class chess because in a game that hasnt changed in 1000 years finding a move that has never been seen before that leads into 5+ winning sequences is just masterful. I wouldnt be surprised to see a situation where the enemy has no way of coming back in begginer or intermediate level chess, but in a game between GMs, seeing one doing something unheard of and the other actually taking the bait is mindblowing to me.

[@tjitsekoster9379]

There's a subtle difference between being confident about your abilities and being arrogant. And being pleased with something you do is not the same as arrogance. Kasparov wasn't being arrogant, he was just admiring the briliancy of his move, because as he explained, he didn't even understand all of it during the game. He'd probably be smiling just as much if the move had been played by anyone else. Don't forget, it was a gut move, which makes it even more briliant.

It was too late, my opponent took it with his knight but then I saw what I had done, A knight trap! There was one move to save the knight(he/she didn't spot it, neither had I and left the knight to die) then I took the knight. But while looking at the game afterwards, I found something so smart that even the CPU didn't spot.. haha. After the knight save, the knight would become useless due to no moves and I would have developed my rook, bishop and my knight in very powerful positions directly in my first 3 moves.

[@bobbwc7011]

@@BeFourCM Kasparow vs. Karpow was so intense because they are complete opposites in chess. Garri truely believed a world champion must innovate and that every game shoul be an attempt to create a new piece of art, a new painting. He once said in an interview after one of this superoriginal games: "You have to be ready to get a bloody nose for that because it will take you 10 games to play 1 game like this." :O I've always felt it was too easy to write him down as arrogant. Yes, he sometimes had a prickish attitude, but he did respect his opponents. There is footage of him when, after a game, he analyses lines with his opponents and discusses problems, alternatives or gives advise. Kramnik once said it's ok that Kasparow could be impatient, mad or very confident at times, because he was world champion and had every right to special treatment with extra respect from "normal" players. Part of his chess was also far more psychological than Karpow. He once said in an interview "Why should I play something my opponent is familiar or comfortable with, when I can play something he dislikes.". ;) And there is another anecdote about his "aura of danger and being unbeatable"; there were many players who lost against him because they could not handle the pressure of his presence, e.g. Viswanathan Anand. Anand folded against Kasparow just because of the psychological pressure. Judith Polgar once said, after having trained with him, "I learned a lot in those 2 weeks of training with him. But, I could also see that even Garri is human ...and makes mistakes. He does not like certain systems and he does make mistakes. After seeing this human side of him, I am not as afraid as I used to be." ...and Polgar was able to beat him shortly after in that infamous earthquake game. :) Kramnik, also one of the few players able to beat Kasparow, once said: "I am not afraid of him. He got to prove his championship on the board." ...and it was Kramnik to dethrone him. Garri is a good guy with a few edges and ticks ...which is the spice in the soup. His reign as world champion would have been totally boring otherwise. Look at Carlsen. Nothing against Carlsen, but it was just better chess, more engaging, more drama, more action, more offensive chess under Kasparow. I personally understood Kasparow's chess more than I understood Karpow's.

[@hansmahr8627]

Yeah, Kasparov understood dynamic positions better than anyone in chess history. Giri said in a stream recently that Kasparov would still crush anyone in a dynamic position. You can still see it when he commentates or on the rare occasions when he's playing blitz. He's old and a bit rusty but he still has the killer instinct in these complicated positions. I mean the guy has a positive score against Hikaru in blitz even though he retired more than 15 years ago. I'd say he's still a top ten player in blitz, it's a shame he doesn't play publicly more often.

Yes, engines did make chess much less artistic and romantic, but at the same time the level of chess we are at today is much higher than where we were before engines. And it's nothing new. Every generation of chess masters did that. The games played by Morphy and such are so beautiful and creative, but it's because they relied much less on theory since it wasn't so developed yet.

Hi Levy, thank you so much for this upload. Game 20 of the 1990 WCC is one of my favorite chess game and i'm delighted with your take on this game. If i may be so bold, i would like to burdened you with a request. I would love to see your take on one of Capablanca's game. I recently read Garry Kasparov 's My Great Predecessors. In the book, he commented on Capablanca's games and speculates that Capablanca occasionally did not even bother to calculate deep tactical variations. Capablanca simply preferred to play moves that were clear and positionally so strongly justified that calculation of variations was simply not necessary. He also describes Capablanca with the following words, "“He contrived to win the most important tournaments and matches, going undefeated for years (of all the champions he lost the fewest games).” and “his style, one of the purest, most crystal-clear in the entire history of chess, astonishes one with his logic.”" Furthermore, a study was conducted in 2006 with a purpose of finding the strongest World Champion to date, using criteria such as the average difference between moves played and best evaluated moves by computer analysis. And according to this study, Capablanca is the strongest World Champion to date. I've seen some of Capablanca's game since, but having a difficult time finding insight of his said brilliance because im sure my 1400 brain just couldn't fathom the moves. I'll be so thrilled to see your take on Capablanca's game, and i'm hoping you reach those 1 mil sub soon. Love, Your fan from Indonesia.

That's right little buddy😊

[@Zannablu12]

Simply insane.

[@ocean3749]

This video showed me so many different tactics and a new way of thinking about attacking chess, I went from 1790-2080

[@eddsmith6187]

Wtf I cant stop watching anything Levy throws to me feed, no matter the hour or the place

[@abhijyotsingh75]

Me too , me too

[@vdv_hk]

This video is pure gold! the mix with raw footage combined with levy’s pedagogical insights allow us to grasp and to appreciate for a moment how genius this man was!

[@DuncanFer1]

The whole video is the best championship video ever - lyon 1990 kasparov Karpov

I'm here from the future, coming from the Spilimbergo Recap of round 9

[@LuisOlaOficial]

Kasparov was incredible! What a game, and against another genious like Karpov. Kasparov is the GOAT

[@arshan5470]

Levy Rozman AKA the G.O.A.T

[@tmsztrsz]

Listening to Kasparov explaining his calculations is like entering entirely different, beautiful world. Artist's mind.

[@Akshat72008]

Redirected here after watching levy's 3rd win over a grandmaster 😎

[@the_stewbear]

Road To Grandmaster Levy told me to come here and comment. Hopefully he’ll get that GM title soon💪🏽

[@joe2mercs]

Occasionally in life the stars align and this was one of those moments for Kasparov. You can see that he too is amazed at the elegance of the opportunities that presented themselves. It has all the hallmarks of a “white to play and mate in six” puzzle. Fantastic!

[@endrusinaga1456]

"any rook move is mate" Rg8: are you sure about that?

[@nikivulaj4683]

Rook on E8 to H8 would of check mated

[@tadapsingh4774]

0:02 your every videos are amazing

[@jessejordache1869]

I read somewhere that "no one at the time understood how dangerous ..f5 was". I think it's in a study of the Zaitsev Ruy Lopez where one of the chapters uses the K v K games as stems for variations. Anyway, after this game, Karpov switched to the non-suicidal ...c4. Because Kasparov is right - once the attacking position is there, it plays itself. I've seen enough Tal games to know it, Tolya knew it (just look at his face) and when Garry says "no thought at all - just look at the position", he's absolutely right.

[@tomackermann7259]

Who is here too because Levi recommended this Video in "I BEAT A GRANDMASTER" road to GM series

[@Akash-kd4si]

I love when Levy calls us dumb without calling us dumb

[@danielromeo99]

This is why Kasparov is legit the Greatest of all time.

[@timwheeler8523]

Absolutely!!

[@snowleopardseal]

Magnus is better Edit: typo

[@googleuser4203]

@@snowleopardseal I agree, now hes a 57 years old grandpa and wants to enjoy his life and time. But 30 years old Kasparov would definitely decimate today's 30 years old Magnus.

[@francoislaniel868]

@@googleuser4203 I don't think that he would decimate him, not even sure he would win (even with the same knowledge of modern theory). They just have a very different approach to their game. Magnus is more positional, a bit like Karpov, and Garry more tactical. It would be very interesting to see that's for sure!

[@jsxxx851]

Nope, magnus gonna trade every damn things and draw!!!, like he offend do

[@ermisg3161]

I'm so hyped about Levy's participation on classical chess tournament

[@Fursdon4]

Sent here by Levy for some lessons.

The ground shakes as Gotham Levy Chess Rozman RETURNS

[@nevillefilar5245]

That was INSANE. Thank you so much for showing and explaining such, well genius is not too strong a word. All the best.

[@inemanja]

6:10 I'm sure a lot of you watched the interview with Karpov, where he dismisses this "hunch" or "calculations" and addresses this to the preparation!

[@jessejordache1869]

He may not be wrong - read My Great Predecessors by Kasparov - virtually every match, (post Fisher) is examined with the assumption that preparation made the difference. I think it's Volume 5? 4? The one about Viktor and Anatoly. Anyway, whether it's a hunch, preparation, or calculation, it's still chess and it's still Kasparov. I think you're seeing an insult where there was none intended; Karpov never had the reputation for blowing his top after a loss the way both his predecessor and successor did.

[@jessejordache1869]

@Daniel B what possble dIfference does it make?

[@blswagger0764]

Future you sent me here from your recap of game 9 in Italy vs GM Alberto David.

[@Kasperrkuijpers]

Here from the great round 9 Spilimbergo open recap - nice video, nice to see these classics. One thing I notice is that in this video you talk pretty fast - I like that you are calmer in your videos nowadays, great improvement!

[@lukaszblek3152]

Who came here from aug 15th recap of the 9th round of Levy's 3rd tournament (He sent us) 👇

[@gerrygooable]

Levy sent me from his tournament recap video

[@shanejohnson9002]

These analyses of historical games are so rad.

[@cesarg4328]

It´s amazing Kasparov calculated all of these at the moment, under pressure against Karpov. Playing in real life and having this in your head is incredible. And Karpov of course too, is a monster.

[@3jesus3christ3]

thx captain obvious

[@shrirangbondale8711]

Levy needs 1M asap and af😂, so he will upload now 4times a day

[@korosensei4873]

I see this is an absolute win

[@Alhumdulila786]

The consistency of people acknowledging people’s consistency of Levy’s consistency is amazing

[@joewoods274]

I've come from round 9 of the GM series in the future, because Levy told me to

[@kaffnir]

i saw the original video 10years ago, but now i truly understand and can appreciate the beauty of it. Thx Leewai

[@control2XS]

Future Levy sent me from "I BEAT A GRANDMASTER!!!!!!!!!!"

[@Vtari]

I feel like levy is brother to me, it would feel weird now to spend a day without watching one of his new videos

[@totallynottemirlan1915]

I am from the Levy’s tournament arc where he references this video

[@jonas0XP]

"King to h2!" Kasparov said calmly.

[@ibbotsoni]

Here cos you asked us to after your win over Alberto David in Italy.

[@righthererightnow4035]

I love the way you explain things!! Could you also do some videos on Mikhail Tal?

[@danlanny4484]

Thanks mate this was brilliant. An amazing insight into the mind of a chess genius. Almost brutal to watch the control he had over that game. Unforgivable 😂

[@pauls5745]

I remember we all played the Zaitsev for a while after this. some amazing games between these 2, and this was one of the best!

[@nuggetz9380]
