I love Chucky and always want him to win. That beautiful tactic was deserving of a win, but Van Foreest, found great counter play. Thanks Daniel and keep up the good work.
In fact, the french historian F. Le Lionnais in his book "Le dictionnaire des échecs" (PUF 1967) said that there is an error : the german problemist J. Brède (1800 - 1849) is the real creator of this theme, and not Novotny (1829 - 1871) ! His stock - problem was created in 1844 and the Novotny's stock - problem in 1854 ... History and use !
I think that creativity it’s the thing that all chess players strive to. That’s why we love players like ivanchuk, rapport or dubov. Cheers, Daniel! Great stuff. As allways.
Wow! A great game and a great comment, full of energy and questions to the audience. Excellent. Btw., I knew only Antonín Novotný, the former Czechoslovak communist president. Now I know that there is another Antonín Novotný all Czechs can be proud of. Thank you very much, Daniel!
Fantastic analysis as always!! The kind of chess I can only dream of. It is kind of nice to see that even with the superGMs that the game isn't over until a resignation or checkmate.
Another excellent video, entertaining and instructive. I have to say though, that I prefer the classical time-limit. One of the reasons I fell in love with chess was witnessing the battle between two great minds where there's time to think. With faster time controls, the game is distorted. Perhaps Ivanchuk would have finished his masterpiece in a classical game. And in the previous game, I can't help thinking that Alcantra would have seen Nb5 with time to think.
What a game from two wonderful players. Also, being Czech I feel a touch embarrassed I didn't know about the Novotny theme. Oh well, today I learned. =)
Thanks for the great video, Daniel! I'm curious, are you familiar with the game Macdonald-Burn, Liverpool, 1910? Has to be my favorite Novotny of all time. Really brilliant.
Chess is a hard game. A brilliant interference move by Ivanchuk but he was unable to covert his advantage and gradually let his opponent off the hook. Think age comes to us all and Ivanchuk is gently sliding down the ratings. Remember Ivanchuk was the one opponent Kasparov feared. On his day he could beat anyone. His two knights vs two bishops game against Kasparov is a masterpiece. Great analysis as always GM King.
Thank you GM King for the excellent presentation! I did not know this device had a name. Now that I know what it's called, I happen to see another beautiful Novotny in the book Chess Positions by C.H.O.D Alexander, here is the FEN maybe you can present this at the end of one of your videos, as a threat (I can't remember who played the game) : 3r3k/p3Qp1p/4p3/1pR4P/3qr3/P5R1/1P3PP1/6K1 w - - 0 1
Typical Vasyl, he did the most difficult, with a brilliant move, and then things get complicated after a winning position. But the game is beautiful anyway. Great analysis!
Instead of Ba3, I was thinking Bc8! with the idea of forcing a5 and creating holes for the white queen, but of course I overlooked the Nd7 idea! Typical Chuck! He has found some beautiful ideas over the years.

Its sad to see someone lose after playing such a brilliant move

What a game! Thanks again for sharing and analyzing, Daniel!

Amazing stuff
two of the most entertaining players produce a gem! thanks, daniel! great analysis as always.

Hey, isn't that just losing a piece on the spot? "Listen, I'm playing a Novotny, it's all going according to plan".
Another great lesson by my favorite teachers, Ivanchuk and King. If it wasn't a team game, I wonder if Jorden would have resigned. :)

Brilliant, Sir. Thank you 🙏🏻
I believe the first time I saw this tactic was looking at the games of David Navara. David Navara Vs Anna Dergatschova.
He has such a wonderful understanding of chess.
If he would handle the clock better in blitz... He'd be one if the best of the bests.
Nd7!! what a move! I thought he was going to win. If he had it would've made it into his 60 memorable games....
Amazing game!
This endgame reminded me a bit of game 17 between Korchnoi and Karpov, 1978.
Wow, poor Ivanchuck, and admirable resilience of his opponent!

I am Czech as well. Taky jsem Čech. See my comment posted at 12:12 :) :)

There was also a blitz game Unzicker-Petrosian from around 1960 with a Novotny-move (Unzicker won with Rc7, if I remember correctly).
The Plachutta theme in Tarrasch vs Allies, Naples 1914, is even more beautiful... 🤩
Game made me cry 🥲
First time I've heard of a novotny :)

Yes!
@@PowerPlayChess I'd love to see you cover that game in a future video sometime, if you're interested!
@@russellstinson3414 I will bear it in mind, it's all a question of time.

Oof, that's a hard loss to swallow after playing brilliant for such a long time. This young guys sure know their practical chess.

Something special!

My feeling is that duck-chess players are statisically more likely to find Novotny solutions. Beautiful!

How many openings do you know?
Depends what you mean by know!
Nowotny is a Czech name and thus has to be stressed on the first syllable.
Not in this part of West London.
@@PowerPlayChess don’t you mean Novotny in this part of London?
Suzie Dent over here 🙄
Painful. But cool.

Ivanchuk old master kombination,very dangerous(Kasparov)
