Great games a pleasure to watch the greats.

[@dirkhebgeennaamachter9056]

First time participating late 1990's at chess club, I showed interest in playing old chess games. The strongest of this chessclub, were not showing too much respect for Zukertort, Morphy and Evans..so I start to beat these 2000 plus elo players up, including a Fm 2398, in Morphy style. I was only 1368 elo then. Thank for sharing these classics among the classic games! Anyhow can you stop youptube sending silly doritos commercials?

[@refinedtalker6932]

your commentary is v unique I love it

[@kalfus5134]

[@tobsixi6702]

Eschwege at 14:20 must have been like: "toughest move to find is with knight back" 😂😂

[@SeaPhoenix01]

[@mikeruck2888]

Steinitz liked playing on the edge 😂

[@harrisbobroff9813]

There is a real defense to that opening,

[@Dinmc123]

I AM a fanboy of Vienna gambit

[@ibowb4Jesus]

What is Gowtham doing there in the 5th game😂😂

[@Arthas30000]

@@SammyChess1 I think Gotham is the Modern Vienna Game/Gambit proponent. As well as Caro or course :)

[@someonesch4361]

16:55 no way😆

[@GM4ThePeople]

I beliebe "Max Lange" is pernounced "Marx Lozenge".

[@Mike-qo4kp]
