For the first time in 3 years of being a subscriber I finally solved "a pause the video" and the fact I did it In a Fischer game is the greatest feeling ever!!❤

[@michaelmassaro4375]

I thought it would be a Queen sacrifice but I found the wrong square to sacrifice it and probably for the wrong reason thinking if Queen took knight the pawn would promote but of course that makes no sense since black has a Queen and Rook defending 8th rank but in chess puzzles there is such a move where Queen gives itself up to promote pawn I know what the move is now of course very clever deflection tactic😊♟️

[@user-hn8lm8th8k]

I know the feeling! Feels goooood!

[@Daniel2374]

Guess this one was pretty easy, didnt even need the pause. First timer aswell.

[@YotamPiano]

Love pre-engine chess games! There is this kind of magic to them I can't explain.

[@michaelmassaro4375]

Yes it also makes me Marvel at how talented players were back in the pre engine days it can not be understated and should be included in the argument when discussing the GOAT

[@Ayzev]

Perhaps fischerandom retains some of it?

[@anderpanders6210]

I think Bobby Fischer was right. Chess is dying because of computers. It's losing it's soul. The future is chess 960. ​@@Ayzev

[@enriquesneffels3053]

@@anderpanders6210 umm, I've seen Chess960 mentioned twice is the last week, I'll check it out know and see what it is, thanks.

[@noteminemsburneraccount324]

​@@michaelmassaro4375 I'm very sure you could make a argument for them. But truly I think Magnus sheer dominance and ability to win positions nobody else would/accept a draw puts him over the edge.... I mean the guy could literally be defending the world title had he not got bored... But id always hear out the argument 🤷

[@zzzMist]

Pal is a real pal for letting Fischer take his place

[@victoroliva5347]

Very nice 😄... Benko also one of very few who defended the great Bobby more than just once, a very strong player in his time. Nevertheless very gracious relinquishing his spot to Bobby.

[@obonirislamrasel5757]

Magnus is child against Fischer😊

[@michaelmassaro4375]

True a Fischer game so refreshing Any game Agadmator covers is great Magnus as well other you tubers show Magnus games to the tilt and a bit too much in my opinion which is why Agad is de Best he does not dwell on any sole player when there is always a lot going on in the Chess world

U.S. Chess. Hall of Fame. Inducted 1993. Born in France but raised in Hungary, Pal Benko earned the title of Hungarian Chess Champions at the age of 20. Pal Benko was a Hungarian-American grandmaster and two-time candidate for the world championship

[@Sakr711]

chess is most of all an art, and Bobby is the ultimate master of this art.

[@brant25]

The comment about Bobby Fischer's light square bishop being a mithological creature made me smile hard hahaha

[@jamesknapp64]

see Game 4 of the Candidates Quarterfinal match vs Mark Taimanov

[@dimitriosdoulgeris4659]

Fischer got eight wins out of nine decisive games he played in that tournament. Gets only topped by that one U.S. championship in 1964 where he won every game. Like a wrecking ball, absolutely incredible.

[@12jswilson]

Outside of Benko and Reshevsky, no one else was really world class. It's not like now when the top 10 Americans are top 100 or top 150 in the world. Of course, Bobby was already Bobby so it's not like he wasn't capable of running through top 10 players in the world like butter. However the patzers he was mostly facing were easy pickings. The Byrne Brothers couldn't beat teenage Bobby; they weren't beating or drawing Bobby in his 20s.

[@juniorputrafajar872]

Candidates were asked which legend they would love to play against and actually majority said Fischer!

[@TheWayofGrace89]

The Bobbie Fischer Saga from Agadmator is one of the most enjoyable pieces of entertainment I’ve ever had the pleasure of viewing. Thanks once again, it’s aging like fine wine.

[@papai039]

After the FIDE candidates 2024 there was nothing to watch, so I started the Bobby Fischer saga again, and here Agad posting a new Fisher game. Agad, you are the best in the business. Thank you from a untrained chess enthusiast.

[@arkzbh]

Thanks for sharing this. We needed something to get out of the heartbreaking stuffs (and joyful) stuffs of yesterday. I'm an Indian, and I'm still heartbroken for especially for Fabi, Nepo saying "I'm sorry" and Fabi replying "it's my fault". - man , truly heartbreaking, thanks for shifting my mind somewhere else

[@anthonyschlott916]

They all played their hearts out and props go to all of them ❤

[@castleschess]

Antonio, you're amazing. Thanks for everything you do. And bless your family, too.

[@FormostPanda]

Bobby Fischer is the GOAT. Today is the day of the engine. None of the Super GM's today could have held a candle to Fischer, in his prime. Candidates was a whole lot different back them.

[@nicknewman7848]

"Fischer's light square bishop.. i mean it's a.. y'know.. it's a 'creature of legend' if you will" 😆 I like this description.

[@interstellarbeatteller9306]

El Bobberino would raise hell if he was playing in this era

[@larrychristydoyle8202]

Thank you for fulfilling my childhood dream of having "chess on TV" to watch historical and current chess. I love the sagas, the almost live coverage, and these occasional great games.

[@acerituraj4153]

Hopefully we get a Tal game too in near future

[@souravjha206]

He exhausted pretty much all of them.

[@joshpinchuk7061]

It's funny that Antonio says long time subscribers to the channel probably even remember this game from 7 years ago. I can't remember any of the blitz games I played today, how am I going to remember a game that I watched 6 years ago?

[@MrSyntheticSmile]

Because of the simple but spectacularly eye-catching combination.

Just based on the tournament standings, it looks like an exciting chess era. Larry Evans is in the middle of the pack with 4 wins, 5 losses, and only 2 draws. Even Fischer has more losses than draws. Very aggressive era

"Fischer's light square bishop, a a a a a creature of legends" agadmator 2024 my new t-shirt 😂 I remember this game! One of those 7+ years subscribers thanks to you, #agadmator, from Romania, for this awesome ride! I read some books of chess and I am into the game of Go, I really enjoy these two games (chess and go/baduk). You bloomed, man, you really developed a lot ✌️ I appreciate your relaxed, also profound description of the game and your way of teaching. I would like to ask you if there is an incoming first pilot of online interview series with chess players and chess news as two new types of chess related content 🤓 #suggestion Glucksberg - Najdorf from 1929 (I think I saw it in a book)

[@olebogengtshenolomosepele1171]

Fischer plays chess against himself and wins thats crazy😂, great play from fischer.

[@ezraaurelight6592]

Crazy game

[@-7-man]

When I play myself I play at 144 FPS. This has helped me get valuable insights about the intent behind each move better.✌️I have a 100% win record after doing this.

[@ligafftheindifferent3495]

19:03 In this position, Rg6 is fun. Blacki must either set his knight on fire or push pawns and lose them. In a short time, white can freeze or capture all of them and then black will be forced to move the knight and lose it.

[@jadezee6316]

GET ON WITH IT MAN!!

[@sanny47chak]

How can a day end without Bobby’s chess?! ❤️ If it wouldn’t have been for his mental condition, he would have been always rated higher than Carlsen or any chess player for that reason

[@davidanderson2357]

#suggestion Lisa Lane, a U.S. women's chess prodigy in the 60s and 70s, died recently. She had a rather remarkable life, both in and out of chess. May I suggest a video doing a retrospective on her life, her contribution to women's chess today, and one of her games?

[@mieses-te9yl]

Why Fischer is the greatest? Because for him, Chess is life. But it burns your mind. He is really the best.

[@arnaldosandoval453]

We relied on newspapers and frequent visits to chess clubs to be up to date with the chess world; this happened when I was a teenager so I remember all the drama around chess; those were great times, and the only good thing about technology nowadays is we could play with people all over the world, but nothing beat OTB matches, it was more challenging, less cheating and better chess players 😯

[@beepboop204]

i am sort of obsessed with Fischer. would you ever explore some of his biggest loses? i find those just as fascinating

[@anthonyschlott916]

Probably his loss against Spassky and his early losses against Tal and Smyslov.

[@armaanmalhotra9042]

🔥🔥🔥

[@davidanderson2357]

When I saw Duncan Suttles at the bottom of the standings, I asked myself how could this be, as Duncan is Canadian (he's 78 and retired from competitive chess). After a visit to Wikipedia, I discovered he was born in San Francisco, and moved with his family to Canada when he was eight. Turns out he has dual U.S./Canada citizenship, and that fact (plus his performance at the time) qualified to play in this particular edition of the U.S. Championship. He is Canada's second-ever GM, after Abe Yanofsky.

[@specialkalberta]

I just watched the old version of this video a day or two ago as I'd seen the brilliant move on facebook and wanted to see the whole game.

[@davidanderson2357]

#suggestion There's an online PDF of the January 1966 Chess Life magazine that covers this event. Several grainy black-and-white photos are printed, and from those I'm making a comparison with the photo agadmator showed. These are best guesses. It appears the man on the left is an event photographer. Behind Fischer (and just to his left): Seems to be Robert Byrne Second from right: William Addison Far right: Samuel Reshevsky

[@geoffreyhui830]

Benko lived for many years afterwards. Good to see a photo of him in his younger days.

[@JohnJohn-tn3lc]

He was right about them

[@tomriddlevoldemont628]

i can't wait to see what the next video will be the only thing i can guess that would be so big would be a stock fish vs alpha zero evans gambit

[@ThichabodCrane]

Genius ending. Would have taken me 10 years to find that move.

[@Tales_Thomas]

The GOAT of chess

[@nedmerrill5705]

Beautiful queen sac!

[@TomJones-tx7pb]

I see that Suttles was in this tournament. It would be nice to do a video on him and his love for certain unsound openings.

[@patmackay273]

Currently the most dominant World Chess Champion in chess history was Kasparov ... he is the GOAT of Chess. Anand and Carlsen will be second and third place. Bobby Fischer is just the myth because he never defended his title ... sad very sad. Carlsen had the chance to become the GOAT of Chess but he was not able to handle the pressure of being the World Chess Champion ... sad very sad. Now Gukesh has the opportunity to become the World Champion and maybe defend his title more times than Kasparov and become the GOAT of Chess ... I wish this be the case because Gukesh is a really nice person, just like Anand.

[@gpolya7363]

One person in the photo is Robert Byrne (bald, tall), another is Samuel Reshevsky (on the right).

[@DarkSygil666]

[@precioustreasures6045]

Maybe it would be nice if you will add the engine accuracy after the game. Im curious how accurate the past players were during those days.
