Judit Polgar goes over her best games against Kasparov! 💪 [Master Method]

[@honesty8310]

normally players above 2700 dont explain that well, cause they think some things are too obvious to say. but judits lecture was very surprisingly superbly explained! i wasnt a fan of her before, but after seeing this i am. really, really superb work!

[@ChesscomGames]

Thank you for your comment. I'm glad to see you enjoy the course made by Judit.

[@honesty8310]

i have just one question before i buy this. i bought another course from u guys about sheveshnikov by kresenkow, and although the course was very nice, i couldnt enjoy it as much cause i couldnt flip the board. in judits course, is there an option to flip the board?

[@ChesscomGames]

I believed you are talking about a very old Empire Chess DVD we did over 4 years ago, we pay much more attention now to make sure the board is flipped to match with the perspective the presenter, though on occasion some slip thru (like in the free chapter of the latest melekhina dvd). In order to "flip the board"It would require some special software that would probably require a login and wouldn't be compatible with all devices, video is still the preferred solution for our fans and customers. Perhaps we will find a way to do this one day but it would cost a lot of money and we are 100% focused on producing high quality content right now.

[@honesty8310]

ok thanks. this course is simply too good to be missed so ill go ahead and buy it!

[@ChesscomGames]

Thank you. Enjoy your course! :D

[@tenorhighc1]

I bought the whole series and I have to say she is the BEST teacher I've ever seen. She speaks slowly, carefully, and really explains her thinking and things to always watch out for. I love how she sees most good moves as dual purpose. And she's enjoying speaking about these games and the ideas! Not just running through variations to get through a video series like most of the IM & GM chess KZbinrs do. She has a cheerful disposition too, kind of always smiling as if you're sitting there. Highly recommend!

Can you send me a series

@@WHAT-gm1xm . Stop begging for free stuff. These courses are no longer available anyway since ichess merged with chessable and they dismantled ichess.

I love the way Polgar explains ! She really kind of forces me to play the Najdorf! She's a great teacher,great video 👍

[@stevesidare2493]

You explain the moves and options well! Most other players go too fast and don't allow someone much less skilled to understand the "why" of the move or position. I wish you many good years of playing and teaching!

Judit is such an inspiration.

Humblest GM ever. Big fan.

Oh, wow, no. She is many things but humble is not one of them. Have you SEEN her tedx proud feminist cringe video?

[@BANKO007]

I am not Hungarian and I am proud of Judit. I feel very sorry that Kasparov has not apologized for making the illegal move in 1994 which otherwise would almost certainly have reversed the result.

Köszönöm to exist Judith!

If I can imagine Sherlock Holms's Irene Adler that is Judit Polgar. She is beautiful and immensely talented.

[@BlackHawky2k12]

Wow! I have the opportunity to hear & learn from my idol Super GM Judith Polgar of how she plans, what she thinks & how she reacts over the board against Kasparov & other great chess players. I was surprise the similarities of how I play, do, think & reacts over the board, i love it! Imagine you hear & learn how your idol a very strong, talented, aggressive a top ten rated on men category & strongest female chess player of the world in history during her glory times. I also love the Sicilian games white or black!!!

[@melanymiskatonic8699]

Late to the party but I’m here! 🩵 thank you Judit, you’re a big inspiration

[@naaveenmahadeshwar7889]

Huge fan🙏! Phenomenal player. Respect from India 🙏🙏🙏

[@mrquickey3731]

@26:22 wouldnt be Re3 a possibility so that she can later bring back the bishop to E1 attacking black's queen?

[@ChesscomGames]

After black Knight captures on e4 square, the white Bishop on e2 square restricts the movement of the white Rook on e1 square, and the white Bishop on h4 square can either get exchanged with the black Bishop on e7 square or get positioned to f2 or g3 square making it vulnerable to the black Knight instead. However, there was another stronger option that comes up in further analysis and that is, white Bishop to d3 square! The bishops would probably not be exchanged in that case, because it would probably be replied with Nf6, back to its original position.

[@cicerogomes5589]

I really like judit's accent and I guess I hear her pronouncing "white" with a 'v' sound in the beginning. I'm from Brazil so, although I speak English, I'm not an English native speaker. Moreover I'm very used to American English accent.

[@davyanonymous9674]

Also wants you to mention, I played in the unrated section of the New York open the same year that Sophia did. And Sophia and I finished with the exact same score and we're likely to have been paired in the last round. We weren't. I'm actually sad about that now but I didn't want to be paired with her at the time!

[@TymexComputing]

Thank you for the video Judit and for the ichess.net site also and for the Sicilian secrets- i really hope that thanks to You and chess Ambassadors more and more girls and women will start playing and enjoying The Game i really need them on tournaments it would help chess to popularize, people meet each other and later there will be more chess players (as more boys will also attend the chess-classes if there are more girls, simple thing). I have found the ever forbidded Linares 94" touch-move footage, dont want to bring bad memories and only wanted to tell you that the chess community will remember about that incident and how people and chess players should behave.

[@davidgriffiths7696]

A remarkable chess discovery such clear explanations can hopefully avoid a lifetime of trail and error. Chess is clearly highly dependent on knowledge, but precise calculation of resulting lines is where I hit the limitations, after about 5 moves forward I lose track. But at least with an organisational structure we can take maximum advantage of any bit of brainpower that may be available... Magnus Carlson playing 10 games simultaneously from memory seems astonishing to me, although there are useful tricks that may be employed using imagery, and a field full of objects and events (such as a building site) can be remembered and worked on mentally in surprising detail, how to transpose that onto chess boards is not so clear, while moving different parts forward in the field in many stages seems most strenuous...

[@josephmarcotte328]

'Queen Side castling in chess is imbalanced and problematic!' because the king is unable to help protect the 'queen's rook pawn at a2' because he lands on the c1 square instead of the b1 square especially when there's no queen's knight standing on c3 to help protect the rook pawn at a2. It takes your next move to move your king over to b1 to protect that pawn. In the queen side castling procedure, why not fix this flaw or neglect in the castling rule by allowing your king to choose when queen side castling an option to move 'two or three' squares and the rook goes on the other side of the king as usual. Maybe even better if the king can 1-4 number of squares to his rook and then the rook goes on the other side of the king as usual? Maybe even for for king side castling 1-3 squares as well? Although with the king side castling procedure today that's not a problem. The king automatically protects his king rook's pawn when castling and needs no new changes in the castling rule unlike the queen side castling does..

Judas I am a huge fan of yours as well. The one question I'm having trouble finding out is are you the only woman to ever make it into the top 100? I know you are the only woman to make it into the top 10 but I don't even know anyone else who made it into the top 100.

[@davyanonymous9674]

@@ChesscomGames ahhh. Thanks for that. Amazingly, I was having the hardest time getting that info on Google. Every time I asked how many women made it into the top 100, it kept giving the articles about why there aren't women in the top 100 and random info on why women can't play chess like men excetera. Anyway thanks for answering me, and I think in the future that will change and there will be many more women making it at the top levels. I mean chess is not like powerlifting for example where physical strength is the main consideration. Besides, I was there when my wife gave birth to both my sons and I'm convinced that women are stronger than men anyway.

[@ConeDaRagusa]

Why Judit did not want to take a pawn on e4 by knight f6-e4 before white queen came to d3...because before if knight c3-e4, she would have bishop captures rook g7-a1...it seems she could have captured a pawn but losing some time in development..

[@ChesscomGames]

In which part of the video?

[@ConeDaRagusa]

@@ChesscomGames 35:22 after white played pawn on f4...Judit mentioned that white had to be fast with development because she might end up with a pawn up..so white attacked her already opened pawn structure...I will take a look now in more details..actually if white accepted, she would loose knight and bishop for a pawn and rook...so understandable that she did not go for it..

All these opening theories and memorization has taken the soul out of the chess. Some opening principles are okay to learn for the a good moddlegame but all these book lines has done great harm to chess then good. Chess is so mechanical sport nowadays. Too many draws and 40 book moves. That's ridiculous.

[@madhavsanap6690]

@Daniel H But that is the reality of chess. It will be pretty useless as a sport soon. Too much theory has ruined the magical game. Once all opening weapons are known we can surely throw the chessboard and chess pieces into the inferno.

[@madhavsanap6690]

@Daniel H BTW I really love chess. But serious changes are required so current theory becomes useless. Then it will have new life in it.
