  • Featured is the 19th game from the 1969 World Chess Championship match between Boris Spassky and Tigran Petrosian. The opening is a Sicilian Defense, Najdorf with 6. Bg5. Initially, the play by “Iron Tigran” may seem to be solid after the first 14 moves. However, with Spassky's 15th move, Petrosian is reminded of a serious drawback with his earlier h6, particularly in an opposite sides castles scenario. Spassky's energetic play on the kingside led to a swift and rare 24-move defeat of the defending World Chess Champion, Petrosian.

      ​@@achillesyoutube8773 In my opinion, he might be THE most underrated of all the legendary players. I know that's a hot take, but again, just my personal opinion.

    Not an easy man to beat Petrosian, this shows what a great attacker spassky was, thanks jerry.

    The ending of this game kind of reminds me of that magic trick where they put someone in a box and stab swords through it at every angle.

      ​@ChessNetwork I second this compliment, so many ChessTubers have an annoying habit of going off on tangents about what *they* would have done differently. Luckily, you don't. You get that most people watch famous games to learn why the actual players did what they did.

    That was a great Match and in it Spassky showed why he was the King. I am sure when Fischer saw this game he was worried about how he was to defend against 1.e4 from Spassky. People say, even Spassky himself said that he was not an exact opening specialist. I think this game shows he was. Spassky preceded Magnus, Kasparov, and Fischer in playing firm, direct and forceful play leading to successful attacks in the Middle Game. Keep showing more of Spassky as there is much to be learned from him.

    At the end of your video you make everyone a little bit wiser. That's all I can say for the life of a chess player. It's a battle it's a struggle and there's nothing that anyone's giving, just one game that your trying to win. Loved the video. Keep up the excellent work.

      Fischer beat the weakest chess World champion Boris Spassky only 17 wins 10 losses! Capablanca would beat Spassky easily 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Carlsen would beat Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses! Fischer beat Spassky 10 wins 15 draws 5 losses in 1992! Spassky was rated 2558 and Spassky was ranked only 162th world ranking! Fischer score 58,33% against Spassky in 1992!So we get Fischer rating 2617,78 in 1992! Crazy lunatic Yasser Seirawan claiming wrongly that Fischer was world record power and form in 1992! The highest tournament elo rating score is Fabiano Caruana 8,5/10 StLouis elo score 3080! Karpov 11/13 in Linares 1994 elo score 3040! Alekhine in San Remo 1930 elo score 3040! Fischer and Kasparov their Best tournament scores only 2990! Lasker won the New York Tournament in 1924 beating world Best scoring 2875 elo at age 55! Fischer 2617,78 at age 49 vs Lasker 2875 at age 55! The crazy people claiming that Carlsen would lose against Fischer big time! Carlsen is 100xtimes better than Spassky who beat Fischer 10 times! Carlsen would beat Fischer 25-30 times easily!!

    Petrosian holding his head into the lion's mouth. His trainer Suetin recalls how they warned him not to play that line, but Petrosian wouldn't listen. Andy Soltis speculated the Champ was tired of reigning. Spassky in his element.

    At the end, instead of taking the knight with the h pawn, why not take it with the Queen? A queen for a rook and a right does not sound so bad.

    • @G102Y5568
      @G102Y5568 Рік тому +1

      You’d win the Knight with check right after. So you’d be sacrificing a Queen for a Rook, and your position is shattered either way.

    In 69, USSR Chess Federation supremacy was undeniable. Fischer, the flash in the pan neurotic American, got the first external cracks into that supremacy while Korchnoi was showing the internal cracks. In 75, Karpov got his first world title by forfeit. Inactive since 72, Fischer did not fight Karpov but FIDE. In 85, a non Russian, Kasparov threw the last blow at the USSR Chess Federation supremacy defeating the last soviet chess symbol, Karpov.
