Maroczy vs Alekhine New York 1924

[@kalevinieminen7742]

Your sense of humour is excellent, best commentator in the chess world

[@MatoJelic]

Thank you

[@vikramradhakrishnan9530]

7:25 Maroczy wanted to resign, but he knew what people watching on KZbin would think. Wow, that Maroczy could calculate really far ahead :-D

[@unit1301]

Hi Mato, Your sense of humor and selection of interesting games makes your lectures very enjoyable.

[@thearmadilloverde]

once again we have the proof that a better development is much more worth than winnig a pawn in the opening... Alekhine never seems to be in trouble during this match. Very helpful

[@brendanward2991]

2:50 - Alekhine castled queenside!

[@justRayEvansopinion]

Fortunately for me chess can be played and enjoyed at any level.. However I do enjoy Mato's videos and watching the top players, past and present.

[@dishil1]

It is nice to View game in Losing Side. Grt Game. Thanks Mato..:) #TrueFan #MatoJelic

[@vasiljkaradzic608]

Alekhine is definitely father of modern attackers and tacticianers. His insight in positions is truly unbelievable, just look at b5 move

[@DrLawIrk]

and where is kingside, mmm?)) thx yet again, Mato, great game!

[@Watermelon_Man92]

The Alekhine Defense was my main stream opening for roughly a year. Every so often I still play it but I usually steer away from it due to its non-promising nature. Make no mistake, the opening is not by any means inferior. The problem with it is it can turn into too many different things. When I play the Sicilian Defense, I usually have a pretty good idea of what's gonna happen. When I play the Alekhine Defense, I have no idea what's gonna happen.

[@Robi2009]

Yay, finally Alekhine playing Alekhine's Defence:)

[@sgdoc7541]

It's 2016, you'd get more views if you updated your thumbnail quality. Good video though :)

[@blackoutgenez]

mato's thumnails pulls out my urge to watch his chess videos

[@whyevenplaymekid5067]

hello mato. great vid 👍

[@BrosHeadshot]

2:55 Alekhine castled... queen side :)

[@大阪日本-y7x]

Your videos are great but can you upload new videos special for Carlsen ,nakamura and all top players thanks if u can

[@pukulu]

According to chess engine stockfish 7, 8. ... Bc5 is better than 8. ... Qh4. According to the chess engine, after 8. ... Qh4, 9. g3 is much better than 9. Kf1. The theory of this opening variation is not really common knowledge since it is so rarely played at the grandmaster level today.

[@jarmokajander7990]

THANK YOU!!

[@Uncles780]

Mato, at the Critical moment would Bishop to G1 work? If King takes then Knight to F3, winning the white queen.

[@toomasvendelin]

The game was played in New York. And where is New York? :)

[@MooxLive]

not caring about youtubers opinion about an early resignation HILARIOUS

[@makisevitastratos9687]

АЛЕХИН--ГЕНИЙ.!!!

[@Arisudev]

finally the alekhine defense played by alekhine!

[@khaledit7050]

Alekhine was just unbeatable

[@garycgibson]

It would have been difficult to visualize Fischer's Q sac vs Byrne in 1956, or even the moves after that. Maybe simpler logical moves are easier to visualize than innovative.

[@obligedviewer]

This is the same opening as Madame de Rémusat vs Napoléon 1802

[@rkuppal5]

Alekhine was a genius..More than the Alekhine defence , his concept of the Alekhine block during the king hunt is of profound significance..Many club players suffer against this tactic during tournaments...( once a good chess player told me during a tournament that if you hv to sacrifice a minor piece to prevent a Alekhine block , do it..At least you will fight longer..)

[@giriiyer3968]

Is this the same maroczy who wrote a book on Morphy? Any ideas anyone?

[@theincompleteskeptic8079]

You might call this Chess School by Mato to funnel it back to you more easily AND make it easier for people who are looking for your work. Just a thought.

[@DonSolaris]

Mato, what is your favorite tractor?

[@magicbeans3499]

What the hell xD

[@czegenyiraymond3342]

XDDDD

[@ChrizPhenom]

Im in love with Alekhine

[@hakangencer2409]

i really wanna see a game where alekhine loses. he is pretty good

[@MatoJelic]

Why?

[@hakangencer2409]

MatoJelic because he never loses on your channel! :D i wanna see if there is a player who can beat him

[@aBetterHumanBeing]

Make him human? Relatable? There is a deep desire within all of us to see the greatest fall.

[@supersporkspank]

Mozart was a pretty good composer, and Shakespeare was a pretty good playwright.

[@MatoJelic]

You didn't watch all the videos on my channel, did you? First watch all, than make a statement.

[@dishil1]

I request mato to Post video in Winners Side. becuz In really we are playing for win so We should View Game like we r playing Game. I hope u understand. Although we should also check that what our opponent threatening... #TrueFan #MatoJelic

[@thequeensconquerer316]

He does that all the time. For some reason, he didn't do it this time.

[@dishil1]

+The QueensConquerer which reason?

[@thequeensconquerer316]

I don't know. Completely randomly I guess

[@aydnata6516]

Mato, you forget about Keres? It saddens me as a Keres fan.

[@MatoJelic]

You saddened yourself because in your life you don't know how to enjoy what is in front of you.

[@dishil1]

Aydin . Alekhine is #1 Palyer At that Time. And Paul Keres is #3 In let 50s 60s. Both player is Spectacular But. Alekhine Had "Great Imagination" And We should Learn From His Game. His Every Move Has Concrete Purpose.

[@theducksneezes4987]

Wait, isn't there already a playlist for Keres?

[@MatoJelic]

Keres or no Keres you will be sad, because it is your attitude that makes you sad

[@vasiljkaradzic608]

If you followed Matos vidoes you would know that he analyzed more than few games of Paul Keres not so long ago

[@springnuance7048]

Hello Mato, what is the name of chess program you are using to instruct on the videos?

[@thenick3216]

[@fernandaseixas1420]

i was waiting to see the alekhine defense played by alekhine :P

[@nileshdixit9672]

beautiful game

[@nenjaskillerz7702]

Im pretty sure the alekhine defence was named so because he recommended to not play it.

[@hnalike7778]

Once again am here

[@bullseye7721]

Player with top side won, nice

[@hnalike7778]

Mato more alekhine and paul keres please

[@bebeto6861]

but this alekhine defence is not the best counter opening, white can get space and activity very early

[@stkarpot1590]

Which is more important? the bishop or the knight

[@BrosHeadshot]

in closed position knight > bishop in opened positon bishop > knight but, in general, the modern theory shows that the bishop is a (very, very) little bit stronger.

[@char252]

Also, a bishop pair is usually more important than a knight & bishop, or a pair of knights.

[@JoaoPedro-ge3iy]

+Han Boetes good explanation

[@krabbernegen]

Overall record: +967 -186 =455 (74.3%) So occasionally he even lost!

[@VenkatramanS]

moral of the story :never care about what KZbinr's think.

[@bebeto6861]

the black bishop survived

[@Physiics]

1,414th!!! Enough with the Alekhine videos... Just kidding. Alekhine is a beast

[@TheAbhijit1980]

mato is hilarious !!

[@markunrau2493]

maroczy's a hack
