loving yusupov's picture :)

Amazing game and analysis as always, thank you, Sam. It seems perplexing how a great like Ivanchuk never became a world champion even in split title era, criminally underperforming at the biggest stage - a title even Vishy Anand seemed to have in the first decade of his career.

Great stuff Sam, keep doing these top games of each decade until you get to the years that chess was invented :)

Wow, this channel is severely underrated! Fantastic videos!

If I had to pick among the field of chess analyzers out there, I'd pick Sam Copeland. Sam sets it up, keeps you on the edge of your seat, and delivers a satisfying recap every time!

Wow, can't believe I hadn't heard of this game until now. Absolutely phenomenal.

More Yusupov games never heard of him but he plays elegantly like a machine

[@WilliamJonesChess]

Key Moments 9:54 Qh1+ then Nh2 then Rg1 is a check mate pattern I will remember! Never seen it before Because black won, can we have the board from the black side for future games?

You told the story so well I was sweating at the end.

Excellent game!!

[@rogerberryman6467]

Wow ! What a game!

[@alieskandari6036]

An awesome game!!

[@TymexComputing]

I have seen this game many times and it helped me to walk my king in the endgame into enemy lines (and i always think about Short's king when i walk my king up the board without being hassled :) ) but i must say that few times it happened not to be a good strategy for me :)

[@xtosu9643]

Was 24. Nce7+ what you were talking about when saying 23... fxg3 was the best? The engine says it's +3.5 while gxh4 is +0.6

bishop f5 hiting the queen true but also making sure that when the knight is attacket it retreats to f3
