Fisher did not conquer the French defense at all in the first game. Black had several chances to force a draw (at 2:55 and 3:30)

yeah he can even lose the game

He had chances to draw, but he didn't want to do it, coz he really did have a great attack there. Just one slow move and Fischer pounced at him. The thing is, Fischer produces these absolutely fascinating attacking positions with his opening choices, which is surely a double edges sword, but he emerges at top with his amazing play. That's the beauty of his chess.

@parikshitkulkarni3551 BLACK, could easily have forced a draw, is the point. I don't think this is a great example, except to prove that you can't waste time in an open position!

Thanks Sammy...another informative and educational mini series!

I can't believe Pal Benko played that badly. 😳 he must have been in huge time pressure. He had a forced draw multiple times.

(4:20) Which move would have been best instead of h6?

@will232bc 6 ай бұрын

I think Benko had a Checkmating Idea had he checked the King on b1 w/ Q. aligned with his knight to then take the c2 pawn-to then bring in more attackers?

Thank you for your explanations. I have made great progress.

Black had the upper hand for most of the game, and could have won if it hadn't been for that one passive move towards the end. Moreover, at the very least Black had a draw in hand at any time by perpetual check. In other words, black was swindled out of a win. And just for the record, Fischer always had some difficulty against the French, and despite his wins, his games against the French show that. But I still think that Fischer was the greatest chess player of his time...which was long before engines played a major role in top-level training and preparation.

Hi Sammy, Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. Just wondering why Fischer did not play h5 before a4 at 33:07. a4 seems useless. Thanks!

@alekhinesgun9997 6 ай бұрын

33:05 Fischer had to be trolling with a4, h5+ or Qd3 is just crushing instantly. Maybe it was a simul or something. Also as mentioned by someone else, the first game against Benko had Fischer losing and fighting for a draw in the first game so it's not exactly a model game of conquering the French defense, moreso just Fischer doing Fischer things and saving a terrible position

On the first game, no need to sacrifice the Queen, just need to put the Queen on e7 and no way to stop Queen on g7 or knight on f7 depending where the black put his rook!

@lucalanteri8117 4 ай бұрын

The need comes from the fact that after benko thought he had secured the king he aimed to win the game with the knight's discovery check, fischer's king is in a dangerous position, so fischer decides with this checkmate not to give him time to play this move, maybe you missed that after queen e7 for example as you said, Benko's king not being in check, allow him to make all the moves he wants for example Nb1+. So the game is not yet won, while this is how the games end, your move is a missed win, bcause you thought that after Qe7 your opponent would make defensive moves instead of offensive, as in this case, moves like Qe7 are fine if you don't have the king in danger and you can ensure victory by having time on your hands, but.. if u can end a game, you must play the move as forcing as possible

@@lucalanteri8117 After Nb1+ the king will go safe on E2 and on F1 after if knigt check again on B1 and black can't stop the checkmate comming, so god save the Queen would be on Fisher's side!

@lucalanteri8117 4 ай бұрын

The point is that... Maybe in a game for example you have checkmate in a move, and you don't do it, maybe it's okay with you and you win anyway if you can do it on the next move. but it is a missed victory because in some situations a single half can upset everything, and even if you win it is still not the best move for example Puzzles train you to this and if you make a move that wins but not immediately, you count it wrong, finally it is Fischer's way of playing that aimed to destroy the ego of his opponents, i believe that a masterful combination with queen sacrifice is more destructive than a normal moveand that makes it clear who is the best

@@realsamuel2377I have already answered this, I said that you should not settle and let your opponent move, but making the best move that forces the opponent to defeat in the shortest way, is a piece of advice, then you are free not to follow it, but undoubtedly if you want to improve you must focus on making the best moves in all the most critical situations, or one day you will find yourself making a good move and the opponent maybe because you haven't played the best one manages to win or draw, your choice

isnt black's rook hanging at 3:31 or am i missing something ?

@eternal4221 2 күн бұрын

i mean white could trade off a knogjt for a rook but the other black rook would be activated still pressuring, id say its better to not trade the knight off because it still could give good value

It's not so much about the genius of Fisher as about the stupidity of his opponents. For this type of setting, as well as for Fisher-Sozin attach blacks shall castle to the QUEEN side, NOT to the KING's
