Most Powerful Piece To Ever Exist - Fischer's Lightsquare Bishop!

[@jefftaylor1186]

“Bobby Fischers Light Square Bishop” has been my bar trivia name for 20 years. The legend of that piece will never die

[@constancestroman7608]

Pretty much

[@AlwaysAudacity]

"Who are you playing tonight?" ""I'm playing the American"

[@davidanderson_surrey_bc]

In Mongolian chess, the ultimate achievement is to promote all eight pawns to horses, then storm the enemy's fortification.

[@anggaprayudi1284]

It is only possible to a beginner player

[@michaelwallace4298]

The apparent ease that Fischer employs to demolish top grand masters never ceases to astound me. Move by move, step by step, with a precision and accuracy that leaves the opponent without an option.

[@zenlizard1850]

You mentioned the possibility of a tutorial about countering the french defense. A tutorial is never out of place.

[@bw3372]

On the chessbrah youtube channel, they have a king's indian rating climb. GM Aman plays the king's indian attack with white and the king's indian defense or pirc with black. This king's indian attack vs the french structure with the e4 to e5 pawn push comes up a few times during that video series.

[@mariuszpudzianowski8400]

Daniel Naroditsky also has a video where he plays and explains KIA against french, I think it was in "Master Class" speedrun.

[@MrSupernova111]

The French Defense is very complex. Tons of ways you can reply to it. Best thing to do is learn one variation at a time then decide which one you like better. Relying on content creators to tell you how to reply to the French is not a good strategy. A comprehensive video would need to be hours long.

[@corypetrey3619]

I struggled against the French Defense until I watched your original video of this game. Once I got comfortable with the structure of the King’s Indian attack, I went from being nervous seeing the French, to welcoming it.

[@preciousamaechi689]

The Sicilian was my bane I’m a French player, so I’m always excited to play against the French

[@corypetrey3619]

@@preciousamaechi689 you can use the King’s Indian Attack against the Sicilian too, Fischer did when he was younger. It gets them out of comfortable lines

[@SamuelPearlman]

That's how most people feel when the French attack :D :D

[@MrSupernova111]

I'm going to learn this KIA system. I've been playing the Steiner 1. e4 e6 c4 which too often liquidates into a drawn endgame. I struggle against these fianchetto systems as black so it seems the KIA would be a good all-around solution for me.

[@sniffableandirresistble]

Fischer was incredible ❤

[@yanair2091]

@ 5:08 "..a move your uncle would play". Really funny. That and "I'll show you disgusting engine line" are my favourite Agad's sayings.

[@rahuldalal5784]

Love the idea of remaking old videos now that your overall quality and understanding improved a lot.

[@tucobenedicto1780]

I like that Fischer's game is very interesting. Like watching a different version of Tal.

[@12jswilson]

I saw someone on Twitter that said Bobby played boring chess. I was shocked by that claim

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

Fischer's e5 pawn was the real powerhouse of this game. It controlled the center for white and helped anchor the bishop and supported ideas with his knight. And speaking of fundamentals, notice how black's position began to diminish rapidly right after he put his knight on the edge of the board...

[@jjstnwei3147]

A terrible move, not something a GM today would play

[@logangustavson]

I see GM and engine play knight on the rim sometimes, although they usually dont keep it there long / its used to reposition

[@tomasz9429]

Really like this game, how Fischer set up that checkmate with Bg2, to sac the queen and leave The Mongolian in shambles.

[@gooddognigel9992]

Fischer was deadly with the bishop pair.

[@yoxat1]

Just a note to say Thank You to God for creating Agadmator. You're both my heroes. I don't think I could survive in a world without Agadmator Chess Channel.

[@DarkKnightIndia]

Brilliant combinations as usual by the greatest American ever over the board

[@endrankluvsda4loko172]

Man the Sousse Interzonal of 1967 lore keeps thickening 😂 love your stuff agadmator! 🎉

[@RealCannolius]

Its always funny when you have to really convince us that one of fischers opponents really is a strong player because fisher was just so dominant during his day and very few players could LOOK like they were a strong player when playing against him.

[@KennedyMister95]

8:00 what do you mean obviously winning, he has a bishop, a knight and a rook for a queen if he were to sacrifice it on g7.

Never overlook the power of a slow move.

[@drob9673]

I hope this video reaches Mr Myagmarsuren so he can confirm or deny the story. I mean it sounds totally like Fisher to name his opponent "The Mongolian".

[@marthadunkley6758]

I am famously rubbish at names but have made chess GM's names a hobby. learned Lhamsuren Myagmasuren's name because of this encounter. Can type Nodirbek Abdusatarov without looking him up now too. My friend Mary is a Sicilian specialist, but cannot pronounce Ian Nepomniachtchi let alone spell it hahaha

Fischer - Benko also has similar themes. Specially the dark bishop sacrifice, the knight and the light squared bishop.

The opening is called the Kings Indian Attack and I have used it successfully against the French , Caro Kann and Sicilian since the pawn structures are very similar , I have also used it against E5 the structure is called Leonardis opening

Fisher legend of the game :)

[@turtle752436]

good game and good move with the bishop. But can you really tell? I would certainly not put it beyond Fisher to actually calculate that far ahead, but that particular bishop move is also a principled move. After black moves the rook to help out with the defense, White can also bring more pieces in and the best way to do that is to move the bishops down to get to the diagon alley unthreatened by prawns. I was more impressed with Fisher moving the knight early on to cause the pawns to move forward enough so as to later allow this bishop move. But that knight back-n-forth was quite early in the game and possibly more a product of theory than novelty?

Fischer to Myagmarsuren: This game is not about the pawn push to b4 for gaining the advantage, but all about converting to the Kingside attack you are unaware of...😊😊😊

[@michaelmassaro4375]

It was quite an unorthodox attack Fischer utilized attacking Blacks kings position

Brilliant.

[@coxscorner]

I saw Qxh7+ and calculated to the mate. Would I have seen it in a real game under the threat on the queenside?!

[@EricJohnson-ls1rh]

At 8:03, in analysis, Fischer has sacrificed two bishops, and Rg7 threatens mate and "wins the queen". But after Qxg7, fg7#, Kxg7, black has rook, bishop and knight for the queen. White's attack seems to have fizzled, as all the pieces have been sacked. Sure, white has a queen, but is it good for anything better than a perpetual?

[@jovonbrown4703]

Fisher is 👑 of Chess 👍

[@MaTheMaTik-n7c]

@ 7:57 So, if black's queen takes the rook ... Why that would that be a clear win for white then ? Black: 2 rooks, 2 knights, 1 bishop and 4 pawn White: 1 queen, 1 rook, 1 knight, 6 pawn White=23 vv Black=23 So ???

Maybe because of this game many players today are not in a hurry to castle into such an attack as white gets here.

That had to be the most gratifying correctly-discerned pause-the-vid-moment I have enjoyed here. Thanks! I might have guessed that a queen sac was implied, I might have guessed that the white B was implied, but I failed to use those clues until after the calc, maybe next time.
