Kasparov's Ruined Masterpiece Restored

[@rajagopalram7783]

I like Antonio saying Tigran coolly takes the gambit, walks the king around and finally blunts the attacker that he throws in the towel. Yes this is Kasparov's ruined masterpiece, but it is also Tigran's beautiful sorcery. Thanks Antonio for bringing us this game

[@tamdoduc]

Five attackers on the Queen side where the King was wandering, the sixth is the sniper that already aim to exactly where the King was, and the Black's King was out front. It was crazy that Tigran still managed to defend with cold-blooded play.

[@Vahe345]

It's best if the pictures are as they were when they were taken. Captures the moment in time.

[@lukemarks3281]

They didn't have cameras

[@wesleycolquitt2259]

I love the different format of this video, this game definitely deserved more than the traditional "pause the video moment." Perhaps an entire series of near-masterpieces could be fun! Games like this where "pause the video" simply isn't enough, but rather we see the brilliance that could've been if even one or two moves had been played differently.

[@MrSupernova111]

#suggestion this format is good for very complicated games that deserve more in-depth analysis of the position.

Petrosian is truly a legend...especially when you know how hard it is to defend in chess

[@foildamnation4680]

I enjoy when you mix it up. Keep on surprising us. The content is just too great to get mad about the little things.

[@DanielHill-y6p]

I love the classics. Thanks AGADMATOR 😎

[@dark_magician_sdy]

More classic games like this, thank you agadmator ❤🎉

[@nazkassm9894]

Thank you for changing the videos format. You dive into winning line after the games, isolate why a the best move was a threat, and then finally, show the line. This is much more satisfying to watch, we appreciate you @agadmator

[@cygnustsp]

I love these old games Antonio still covers. I go way back on this channel and that's almost all he used to do.

[@akramsahab4154]

Miss this

[@istiakislamSEO]

Man, your videos are gems. You must (not should) have a lot more views. I wish you the best.

[@tamdoduc]

The only video on Agadmator's channel that "In this position, at move..., ....resigned the game" is at the half, and the game continues to be analyzed afterward. Such a complicated game.

[@mauriziomonge]

one of your best videos ever agadmator!

Bravest king in a chess game, a true king in the frontline with his people.

[@MrSupernova111]

One of the most spectacular games I've seen a in a long time. Usually, attacks are one sided. This type of fierce defend is rare to see. Thanks!!

[@dark_magician_sdy]

That line he had to find was just so insane. I love the analysis you make.

[@msalty2823]

Keep the pictures B and W as they were please. Great game, love the Iron Tiger.

[@tommyreynolds6237]

What a beautiful game. Absolute pleasure to watch this one Agadmator.

[@NeilTheHippy]

Tigran was a defensive monster R.I.P

[@sultannis]

Great video as always. #suggestion I would like to see more world championship matches. It would be great if you covered Kasparov vs Karpov!

[@P.sherman45]

the big K guys have played over 150 classical games with eachother (draws are only 119). there will be no rivalry greater that kasparov vs karpov ever.

[@lukemarks3281]

[@amirroohollahi1511]

Honestly this was the BEST game I have ever seen, even from agadmator channel! If you show this one to anyone they will fall in love with chess!

[@josiahmacfarlane4344]

Tigran is so fascinating. The structures he finds. In my mind he's the most talented prophylactic player ever.

[@forkos89]

This video is really special @agad thank you

[@michaelbrowder1759]

I grew up in this era and actually preferred Petrosian to Tal.

[@Antonio-jl1uz]

awesome video! well done man! when it is an old game it is better to leave the photo black and white imo

[@drzlecuti]

Great analysis! Thanks.

[@walternullifidian]

I really like this picture of Petrosian, it's my absolute favorite picture of him! He just looks so happy! 😁

[@abhisekchoudhury2661]

Its so amazing to watch this game. I am new to this chess world but I am already so much fascinated. What brilliant minds these guys have, truly amazing.

[@DeDominisMafiaTV]

I prefer the black and white photos tbh

[@xsilon7274]

#suggestion Max Weiss vs William Pollock 1889 this game was played at the 6th American Chess Congress which was considered the first candidates tournament as the winner of it would had the chance to challenge Steinitz for the title. This game won the brilliancy prize and it's very very brilliant i saw it for the first time today and I had a great time.

[@davidwhite2949]

Good point about how dominating Bobby Fisher was

[@deseanlothian]

No preference on colouring the pictures, however I think for this game. Black and white was the best fit. With so many subtle quiet moves, it felt like the theme was silent giants. I think black and white definetly more appropriate in this case.

[@cskwillreturn2473]

one of those days when King went for a hunt..instead of being hunted down

[@rutvijdalal]

All the old masterpieces especially from the age old Capablanca and Fisher era. Would be awesome #suggestion

[@aitordominguezcomin9147]

First time I hear about Tigran and I am already a huge fan!! Amazing defensee

[@glitchinthematrix3559]

Nicknamed Iron Tigran he’s a machine

[@newil_yovac]

I mean this respectfully, buylt you must be REALLY new to chess! Tigran is one of the most legendary chess players ever: defensive minister, exchange sacrifice tactician, and positional magician. You'll love his games, especially the ones where he fends of the best of attackers like Mikhail Tal, Korchnoi and Keres!

[@P.sherman45]

i still remember tigrans game with the immortal rook, the pre engine era games hit different.@@newil_yovac

[@d4slaimless]

Nice king run from Tigran! Black and white photo is ok, but either is colored one. B/w photo is more authentic, but honestly either way is fine.

[@lp1926.guitars]

Sometimes I just send you some money on paypal because, honestly, it doesn't make sense content this good is free!

[@lp1926.guitars]

also I hate how good Petrosian is as a defender. So annoyingly good 🤣

[@tommartin2423]

c4-a5 with check has some interesting lines with rook sacrifice on b5 but does white win? if c6xa5, then b3xb5+, pawn takes b5, queen takes pawn with check, if b7-a7, a2xa5 mate or after c6xa5, d2xa5 white square bishop can also win exchange with black knight once queen is on 5 rank tease some of these out Antonio? better to find more ways that kasparov muffed it!

[@TheWayofGrace89]

This was great. I love The Tiger.

[@TalsBadKidney]

yaaaay petrosian

[@nicholaswideman6658]

Tell your opponents "Feel safe at night. Sleep with Tigran Petrosian."

[@rickharold7884]

Wow. Now that’s fun and exciting

[@davidanderson_surrey_bc]

#suggestion If the photos have a nice sharpness to the detail, as these do here, then leave them in black-and-white. Colourization should only be applied to fuzzy photos.

[@shuvro40]

Is this that game where Garry said he almost fell from the chair seeing the King to C6 move? I think I heard it in one of Daniel's Speedrun games some time ago.

[@titanchess781]

Great attacking and defending Game!

[@maheshbhat8452]

Agad make videos on old games like this one

[@michaellacy8510]

Nerves of steel! Must have been terrifying to play Petrosian. Even for Kasparov.

[@tychoMX]

What a great game. B&W photos, please!

[@Bobby-fj8mk]

What a great game. Petrosian was so clever to get out of that attack. Most top players even today would have been crushed.

[@dirkhebgeennaamachter9056]

Bravo! Well commented and so on, thank you so much

[@whaddoiknow6519]

The most essential part of Kasparov's chess career in my view is that in the 1995 world championship, Anand took the lead in game 9. In game 10, every time Kasparov made a move, he got up to go to the bathroom and slammed the door behind him so hard the room shook. The young and mild mannered Anand did not complain to the arbiter, who also did not act. Bullying destroys lives, and bullied children suffer lifelong low self esteem. No bully should be held up as a hero. When you need to win with such tactics, no game can be called a masterpiece.

[@BobbyFischer1975]

Black and white pics reflecting a foregone black and white chess era is much more historical and authentic!

[@saumenroy8710]

To think of this was played in pre engine era, boggles my mind

[@andreweaton6363]

I'd be really curious to know about Antonio's progression as a chess player since starting his channel.

[@fyre1borne]

When you went back to the position, the move is : Knight to A4 check immediately…in either case a rook sac results in a mating attack

[@____-ei4gq]

There are some games that just absolutely break my brain O.o

[@jovchestojche6395]

Antonio, we need more analysis from these old games. 🙏 #Oldgamesanalysis

Crazy to think what these guys would be capable of with modern engines to help them prepare and improve.

[@machineFa8]

wow what a game, we never focus on how good someone is at defense and this is shows that.

[@P.sherman45]

#suggestion i just checked the tournoment after i saw this game. 3 people could win at last round. Alexander G Beliavsky vs Jan Timman game (last round) was an awesome attack satrting with a piece sac and then ending the attack up a piece. check that game out, you might wanna show some great games from that tournoment.

[@LikeaBossA10]

I’m not good at chess, can someone explain to me why @7:08 it isn’t viable to capture the bishop with the knight?

[@محاميالدينصالحعبدالباسطالفلبين]

king is pin

[@Trip_Fontaine]

That isn't a legal move. If that knight moves the king would be in check from the other bishop on g2. You can't make a move that puts your king in check. If a piece can't move because of this, that piece is said to be "pinned."

Finding good moves is easy. It's tha case of playing them in the right order is the hard part.

[@KevinFitzMauriceEverett]

Either way on coloring or not coloring the pictures. Black and white has historical significance, so I lean toward that. However, please add proper punctuation to your quotations. For example, a period at the end would be nice for this quotation. "Chess is mental torture." If you are afraid to add a period because more words follow in the full quotation, I assure you that it is proper to add the period when you shorten the quotations according to the best grammar practices.

Wow! What a game. Kasparov should have won it. Attack over defense for me. But what a great defender Petrosian is.

[@mohamedmoselhy397]

The winning line is "mental torture"

[@kellamyoshikage286]

In this game we see Tigran Petrosian the illusionist, casting the illusion that you can just play the obvious and your opponent can't do anything about it. Everyone sees that you can capture the pawn, everyone sees that you can unpin, but the moves look silly at first. It's Tigran that just plays them anyway, makes them work anyway. Even Kasparov fell for it.
