Incredible Blunder by Mr. Morphy! || Anderssen vs Morphy (1858) || GAME 8

[@agadmator]

This is game 8. While recording I thought it was game 7. Hence the confusion. Next video is game 7! Enjoy your day :)

Morphy is a true gentleman, always giving a winning chance to his opponents to make it a fair play. Andersson is also a trur gentleman, he never took those chances and relied on his own to win or lose.

[@kaldrazadrim]

Yesterday on Lichess someone pointed out that I missed taking their queen and offered me a take back to capture it. 😳

[@olasek7972]

No, I don’t buy this that Morphy would be giving such chances to his opponents on purpose. But they were both gents - this I can agree on.

[@Exayevie]

If that makes you a gentleman, I must be ghandi :P

@@olasek7972 I think it was a joke but tbh I'm not sure either. If the comment wasn't a joke, I do agree with you.

It's funny how sometimes quiet king moves can be brilliant moves and other times they are fatal mistakes...

[@mixer6166]

True. And given any list of potential king moves I will certainly always pick the only bad one. So I have something in common with Morphy today. 🙂

Morphy probably realized that Kf7 was a blunder right after he played it, then a move later went Kg7 in relief xD

Well, you just know that if Morphy had been a colonel, he would have played Kfc.

[@colinpetersen1173]

Agad if we alternate white-black-white-black and assume having white is an advantage then whoever has white first is never behind. By alternating white-black-black-white-white the lead will switch back and forth, which is a fairer structure. The same structure is used for serving points in tennis tiebreaks for the same reason, to alternate the opportunity to lead.

[@ahriman935]

Don't be so surprised. Morphy was obviously on the dopamine rush from joy he felt after making the move that was praised by our good friend Lowenthal. So it stands to reason that he got inspired and again did exactly what our good friend would do: make the only losing move.

When you say unlimited time does that mean that if you are not a real gentlemen about it this could turn into a duel? Actually are there any chess duels? Like you took to much time and have no honor, fetch the rapiers and dueling pistols!

You people who are thumbs-downing a chess analysis, what's up with that? Who would do such a thing? (Maybe Agadmator's competitors?) I can't imagine doing that to any chess reviewer, even one who does nothing more than state the obvious and say "uh" after every two words. Agadmator explains the rationale behind nearly every move, and only very rarely fails to explain one that I wish he had. Furthermore, he provides all this information with wit and humor entertainingly -- which the other commentators don't. What possible complaint could anyone have that would justify a thumbs-down?
