That looked like my games; ha ha ha. In the 60's, Boys Life magazine ran an article by Fischer every month. He made me want to play!

7:57 The black pawn temporarily shut down the white knight, so the white knight will easily be forgotten, 9:53 fisher made the forgotten knight shine

Looks a lot like something you can get from a Bird opening. Except the opponent might me less aware of it

I put Morphy at #1 all time because he spanked everyone else his entire career. Fischer at #2 solely because he did not defend his title. I appreciate you brought up the point inflation. Somewhere I saw that Carlsen, who is at the top with Fischer and Morphy I think, was rated at ~3900. I just started following chess again after retiring and I was gob smacked by that rating. A 1000 points better then Fischer? Thought that Carlsen and Fischer were similar. Masters before they were teens and remained at the top as adults. Anyhoo thanks for posting and letting me relive the chess of my youth.

The bar graph can also be justified by the fact that among these 6 great chess players, Bobby Fischer was the only one self-taught chess player who got help from the "God of Chess", propelling him to beat the Soviet Chess Machine. All the rest had/have a team of coaches/trainers to propel their chess talents. Yes, Bobby Fischer is an absolute Chess Legend.

curious choice of 6 photo candidates for greatest chess player of all time... Fischer, Kasparov, Carlsen and even Karpov have legit claims, but Anand and Levon? Replace them with Capablanca and Tal.
@jackmckok879 ай бұрын
Perhaps Igor just wanted to compare modern players due to them having more accurate Elo ratings than the legends of the past.

I actually bought Fischer 's book 60 memorial games. You really need to spend days on this book in order to learn. I don't recommend it for beginners. I took it because it it's available very rarely at least in my country, and Fischer is the reason I play chess. Most powerful move in chess history is with white light square bishop C4 to B3.
@chandie52985 ай бұрын
The difference between Fischer and Carlsen............ Fischer actually understood the squares and positions and tactics. Carlsen memorized known openings and lines and responses. Fischer is superior. The test..... Chess960. All Carlsen's memorization would become worthless but Fischer's skills would still be valid and valuable. Fischer is the GOAT.

Fischer beat the weakest chess World champion Boris Spassky only 17 wins 10 losses! Capablanca would beat Spassky easily 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Carlsen would beat Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses! Fischer beat Spassky 10 wins 15 draws 5 losses in 1992! Spassky was 162nd world ranking and rated 2558 in 1992! Fischer score 58,33%! So we get Fischer rating 2617,78 in 1992 at age 49! Crazy lunatic Yasser Seirawan claiming wrongly that Fischer was world record power and form in 1992! The highest tournament elo rating score is Fabiano Caruana 8,5/10 StLouis elo 3100! Karpov 11/13 Linares 1994 elo 3040!Alekhine in San Remo 1930 elo score 3040! Fischer his best tournament only 2990! Karpov have won over 160 super grand Master tournaments! Fischer won zero! Fischer won only inter zonals 1962 1970! Fischer was Second in Santa Monica 1966 behind blunder maker Spassky! Fischer did not win Havanna 1965! Morphy Tal Alekhine Kasparov have More beautiful games than Fischer! Awful Spassky beat Fischer Ten times! Carlsen is 100xtimes better than Spassky! Carlsen would win 30 times against Fischer easily!!

@@RaineriHakkarainen Playing Chess960, given 10 games... Fischer would beat Carlsen 10 times. Without the memorized openings and lines, Carlsen would be lost. Completely and utterly lost. Fischer would win every single game. You are very biasedly stating the history. Fischer took the chess world by storm and wiped the entire Russian chess team... all being completely and lavishly funded...wanting for nothing.... everything provided for them and their families... off the face of the earth. Fischer was not a chess genius, he was a genius who played chess. His IQ made Einstein look like a booger eating moron.... Carlsen's memorization skills are impressive but if you make him play Chess960, he would instantly have the equivalent of a FIDE rating of maybe 1500 at best. Fischer would be the Chess960 world champ with no real competition.
