Alekhine vs Yates - London 1922

[@williambunter3311]

Mato, thanks so much for all the brilliant games you post, and for your great commentaries. You are like an old friend.

[@ibicrates]

Mato, thanks so much for these videos. The past two series on Keres and Alekhine have been fantastic. I started playing chess only a few years ago and these have helped me understand and improve on my chess a ton. How wonderful it is to get to know the game through these masters! What a game this was!

[@micahkeres7665]

Delightful game indeed. If I didn't know the names of the players, I would have thought Capablanca was playing the White pieces...

[@rohandotc]

Your excellent commentary has rekindled my love and interest for the beautiful game again. Very informative and educative. Undoubtedly the best channel on youtube! Thank you Mato!

[@superguy3549]

Make video about calendons court pls

[@golfelion2304]

great game!

[@Lyblix]

hey mato, are you gonna post the carlsen v karjakin game that happened a couple days ago? thanks!

[@jonathanautoga3747]

What a beautiful job by the 2 rooks, Alexander A. Really work its purpose!!!!!

[@arthurschopenhauer4011]

Alekhine was good at the opening, well he discovered his own opening, Alekhine was master of middlegame, and now I know he was also good at endgame. I would love to "see" match between Botvinnik and Alekhine. It is sad that Alexander died before that.

nice videos Mato, grettings from venezuela!

What would have happened if at 2:05 the White Horse (E4) moved to D6?

[@odrieaponte1561]

Then Qa5+ winning the Knight

[@tajso100]

qxd6

[@kevinbyrne4538]

6:27 -- If my knight were under attack like that, I would normally be in despair at the prospect of losing it. But now I see that even in such positions, it's possible to win.

[@fporretto]

Gorgeous. It took more vision than I possess to see the won endgame available after the exchange of Queens. Was there no alternative for Black but to accept the exchange?

[@_checktease5529]

black could have chosen to exchange works on the Open Sea file but then he would have had a lost a game in which his Bishop would be inferior to the knight given the fact that all of that spawns are on the same color as his Bishop

[@pavlemilicevic6234]

Wait if Yates moved pawn on 5:36 from g7 to g5 wouldnt it be checkmate?

[@pavlemilicevic6234]

Oh its En Passant my bad...

[@olasek7972]

yeah, good catch.

[@AinaweeUAE]

Patience. That's what I also need to have to be a good chess player.

[@alachabre]

Fred Yates, without whom so many "best games of the masters" books would be woefully thin. An unappreciated genius.

[@ghostgurl17]

i wish to see some dragon sicillian games Mr Mato. i think thats the most exciting line

[@superguy3549]

You have epic voice

[@mohitukey]

In the game I liked the last move of the white king. Thanks for the Game...

[@scorpioz78]

Alekhine is just too good. He seems to have PhD and Post doc in chess.

[@dishil1]

Power of 7th Rank.. Thanks Mato..:) #TrueFan #MatoJelic #Alexander Alekhine

[@elcastorgrande]

Yates was utterly outclassed.

[@JLPicard1648]

Nd2 instead of Kf1?

[@benjafflolz]

if knight from E4 do D2 then knight from D6 to B4. Black bishop takes bishop on G6, and one continuation is black knight on f3 takes d6, queen takes d6, white queen takes b4, and black queen takes g2. Black is better in every variation

[@varmint87]

Is it just me or did every game in the early 20th century play QGD

[@MatoJelic]

It is you. because you only watched 2 games out of milion

[@altimate1]

When you are weak and enemy is merciless, never take what he gives.

[@marcinnowak2086]

This one was easy to find (Rxg7) due to very clear position...

[@LJLMETAL]

Nice game, Mato!

[@aleksandrsiyakwazi3017]

Where is London??

[@FirstLast-cf4mi]

Devon Tracey?

[@charlesyang1258]

Well now i know another checkmate tactic :D

[@MrGyges]

On a rare occasion, Yates beat the great man, chasing his king all over the board before finally mating. Alekhine went to his hotel room and smashed all the furniture. He didn’t like to lose.
