This is one of my favorite Kasparov attacks as black: absolutely devestating against one of the finest defenders in chess history. Thank you for highlighting the greatest rivalry in chess.

[@fredflint3998]

Karpov and Kasparov were the ultimate rivals. Two exceptional talents with totally different styles. To me Karpov’s style is very disciplined and precise whereas Kasparov was more abstract and adventurous. I only wish Fischer was still there too at that time.

[@banzaiburger9589]

What a bizarre game this was. Just beyond my comprehension

[@ianattong6989]

Excellent attacking game by Kasparov !!! Very instructive !! Great commentary as usual !!

[@englishguy9680]

The more I learn about Karpov the more I respect him so the fact that Garry could ein like this with black is very impressive

[@peterquinones3522]

Surely the most venomous, hate filled rivalry in chess history was between Karpov and Korchnoi.

[@mavenofmacau6391]

Filthy!

Amazing detail & coverage 👌🏽

[@eonny]

Good one. Thanks for keeping short and concise.

[@JBfromFL]

I like your videos. Thank you for making them!!! 😮😊😅

[@MrGyges]

Excellent Chess. Thank you.

[@DergEnterprises]

Interesting attacking moves

[@northshores7319]

Kasparov was so very alert to all possible tactical motifs that confirms the saying that the winner sees a move or two better than the loser. Funny tho' how Gary was freaked out by the computer that could see way farther than he could. That was a bit of role reversal for Gary. Good show as always.

[@keaton718]

Crazy that today our phones have the compute power to investigate every possible move worth investigating. Chess is basically solved.

[@bring-out]

@@keaton718 Not really, as AlphaZero showed there may very well be new ideas waiting to be discovered.

[@keaton718]

@@bring-out i have heard of Stockfish pruning trees that have good moves in them, but it can still reliably beat any human.

[@strategicsage7694]

@@keaton718 I think both statements in your last comment are true. Computers are far better than humans, but they haven't solved chess.

[@obinnauwasomba785]

Kasparov in his prime was alekhine 2.0….he could find and play 15 straight only winning move in a game, check out his attack against Topalov in his immortal game.

[@Mach1Airspace]

Excellent.

[@PT84]

Cover some of the candidates matches plz

[@benjamindillard2391]

There are more than enough streamers covering the candidates. What chessdawg does is cover a lot of older, historical games, and we appreciate it from him. Some of us don't wanna be inundated with Hikaru and Fabi games non-stop.

[@Luckey900]

Thanks Canada

[@SwaniZubayeer22]

A beauty.

[@patpowers9210]

Of course, the REAL source of tension between Karpov and Kasparov is that their last names were too similar.

[@LaterGator1505]

Massive mismanagement of White's kingside pieces.

totally off topic but... for laughs, play this at .5 or .25 speed. Drunk chessdawg. HEHEHEH

[@stevenjohnston2263]

No. That would be Paul Morphy followed by Mikail Tal.

[@xxAutoFlowxx]

Karpov was in his 40's when he played this game. I think he. In his prime, was better. Look at their first WCM. Karpov was crushing him.

[@chessdawg]

Actually, in fairness to Karpov, the following year he absolutely dominated Linares winning with an unheard of 11/13. He finished well ahead of a field that included a second place Kasparov who had 8.5/13. Perhaps I will cover one of Karpov's games from that legendary tournament to balance things a little bit.

[@user-ts2co4ov5h]

Karpov has won more GM tournaments than anyone in History !

[@yuezhao4576]

@7:38 just wondering how about white play RXc2. Thanks!

[@raylopez99]

It's like music. The music you grew up with is the music you think is the greatest. That said (about music) a study once found in terms of feel good harmony the music of earlier ages was better than later ages, progressively, meaning music from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s. 00s, 10s, 20s got progressively worse. And I tend to agree, though I don't listen to much music. You notice how Rihanna now is doing country rather than rap because it's trendy? Well country is basically 50s music. As for chess, who's the greatest? Kasparov of course. And you can guess my age by that comment. Peace!

[@supportpatriarchyordietrying]

Rihanna's so called music was always garbage ... no matter which decade.

Garry Kasparov is the Greatest Player to Ever Live

[@JimJWalker]

Karpov scored 19 wins, 21 losses, and 104 draws in 144 world championship games. Hardly a domination by Kasparov. Actually, I would say that the 2 win advantage is statistically insignificant.

[@KeithDonovan-cd3eo]

I've been saying that for years plus karpov was 12 years older

[@femioyekan8184]

True, but the goal of matches is to win them, not an exercise in statistics. The fact that they played five and Karpov won zero is significant. And four of those losses came at the start of the 1984 match when Kasparov was adjusting to Karpov's level (no way to practice for that, especially at that time).

[@BillHimmel]

@@femioyekan8184Thx for reminding the Karpov-fanbase that it is wins that count, not statistics!

[@JimJWalker]

@@femioyekan8184 Most don't remember that Kasparov won the 1987 match virtue of a tie, with no tie-break.

[@strategicsage7694]

@@BillHimmel Both count. it's not one or the other. You can hold the reality that the players were extremely close overall as well as the one that Kasparov ultimately was better.

[@tudvalstone]

Hard to get over the fact that Kasparov is a clown.
