Here is the game I referenced in the video where Fischer won in 17 moves with the Fischer-Sozin Attack against Peter Dely: ua-cam.com/video/wlk1DLm-BjU/v-deo.html
I want to thank you for not adding "your moves", as other YT chess gurus do consistently when it comes to games of these top players of the time, (those guys don't understand their place). I can't learn anything from those guys as they rattle off options, (and there is probably good reason why the best in the world did not choose "their" option.). That is very distracting when I am trying to figure out what "Fischer", (for example), is thinking. Kudos for showing the game with out trying to show up the best in the world. Some people,---just don't know their place. :) Doug in Michigan You YT gurus should have a on-line chess tournament, funded by go-fund me donations for money, (that could get big. Think about it), and put everybody in their proper place. :)
Same here, Jerry got me back into chess after 20 years without playing. I now follow several chess youtubers, each their style, but everything started here, with good content and pure chess.
I agree. Another way to look at it might be to say move the piece that can be threatened first (rook) over the one that can’t be (queen). At least in this case.
Love to see you back making more content! I've been following you for years now and my favorite videos are the game analyses, especially those of the world championship matches. Looking forward to your coverage of the upcoming match! Take care.
i have seen so many of your vids that not only did I get the moves(apart from Qe2) but I could also guess the exact explanation that you gave. You have really changed my thinking style when it comes to chess, the only problem is I am too slow, and even 15 min games are not long enough for me to come up with the correct idea(That is even if I can find the correct ideas). I am practicing blindfold chess right now along with puzzles at 2500 rating in lichess, but that is not helping me avoid simple blunders I make because I want to save time or am simply too lazy to calculate all the way through. I am working on it tho, hopefully, one day I can cross the 2000 mark(currently 1950). Thank you ChessNetwork!!!
It's not only the wisdom of choosing, among dozens, the most brilliant game of the genius Fischer (as in this case), but the skillful narration explained it in detail, that makes this video a Chess lesson. Thank you, sir.
Jerry thanks for this video. You are the best. Please keep them coming. Your Standard games videos are the most instructive and most appreciated by all.
Wow, you are an amazing teacher of the game....best chess channel I've come across! Love how you put our minds to the test with all the variations. Much appreciated bud!
A friend at my local chess club recommended your channel. I am not disappointed. I love your style. Thanks for the contribution to our chess community.
Love you Jerry! I'm growing old watching your content. I've bought your merch. Seen all your game analyses. Your Like/Dislike ratio proves your fans loyalty. As always great video.
Note to self: decisive attacks on critical pawns are really fun moves to play. The other day my opponent moved the bishop to defend the pawn preventing mate, but I had a revealed Double check #2 and their bishop couldn't even help. So much fun. Thanks for showing this Fischer game. Watch all of your vids.
Yes this chess network channel is just awesome and the voice of this guy is just perfect. Hope u don't close the account sir u videos are just perfect keep them coming.
Really instructional analysis! Being aware of the value of individual pawns and piece flexibility is something hard to think of consciously during a game. Thanks for bringing it up
Jerry, are we ever getting a face reveal? It’s seriously on my bucket list, to see the face behind the voice I’ve been hearing for days of footage. My life feels incomplete without it, im sorry.
Imagine standing at the store in line and you hear Jerry's voice "Milk to conveyor belt, this central post is the least flexible. Now let's surround it with granola bars and only then will we have the structure of snacktown."
It is worth mentioning that this game comes from round 17 of the 1967 Skopje tournament and that Fischer actually had the exact same position after 12 Kb1 in round 2 against Efim Geller but lost a wild tactical game in just 23 moves. It is therefore quite likely that he had run some analysis of the position in advance of the Sofrevski game and quite possible that this Qe3+Nd5 idea could have been preparation. Unfortunately it is rare for Fischer's losses to get videos - putting these 2 miniatures together might have made for a more interesting arrangement.
By the way Jerry I started watching since I joined my school's chess club and I'm still watching this as a NM a few years later, this channel has been great :)
Excellent analysis and tips! I did take a thing or two away! I particularly love Bobby games as he is my favourite... along with a 100 million other followers of chess.
Really enjoyed this breakdown Jerry. I've been digging this channel for a while now and appreciate the extra tips. I shared this video with my brother and signed off with "check you later." If it isn't, I feel like "check you later" should be used as parting words amongst chess nerds (like us) all the time. Thanks for all the great breakdowns. Check ya later.
I had to (and thankfully did) find a similar just in time light squared bishop move not even an hour ago to save a game in an exchange French. So naturally my pop quiz answer was to move the queen first :-/. Great video Jerry!
Learned two new things in this video: First sacrificing to make a major weakness...but this one would be hard for me to convert. The second is reserving the piece with most mobility to move last.
I am loving these videos lately focusing on one longer game instead of multiple blitz or bullet games. To add to your point around the 12-and-a-half-th minute, moving the piece with the least options is a good rule of thumb, but it might be worth considering how many options can be taken away in one move. If one piece has two options, but they can both be denied with one opposing move, that piece needs to take the same priority as a piece with only one option that can be removed. In other words, how many options does this piece have, and how many can be taken away from it before they can be used, are both important considerations.
you brought me back to chess, jerry! couple years ago. so, thank you! loved the last wc with you, too. i fell asleep most every game, but woke up for most endings, also :) im eager for this years.. great video!
I especially appreciate the point about the e6 pawn being worth more than a point, and as much as 2.5 points, since it really is the lynchpin of black's defense, and without it all black's pawns in the middle of the board are isolated, which is fatal.
I also like your point about moving the piece with fewer options first; hence, the rook before the queen in the present game. I'm not sure I understand that concept yet, but it gives me something to think about!
Great video! I thought this was going to be a Agadmator video by the look of the video photo. I have stumbled upon another great chess channel. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Hey Jerry! Really enjoying your videos for so many years, because in each there is at least one thing I can take away. Today for example was your rule of thumb regarding the flexibility stuff with the rook and queen. I will definitely remember that! Keep it up! :)
The most useful take away is the tip to move the piece with the fewest options first. I'll focus looking at the board from that perspective and think it'll improve my game. I really enjoyed your analysis and comments.

Jerry has the best analysis. Move the piece with the fewest options first. Why didn't I think of that.
I agree. Another way to look at it might be to say move the piece that can be threatened first (rook) over the one that can’t be (queen). At least in this case.
And what he mentioned earlier, look for intersecting squares (squares that more than one piece is watching and likely to mount)
Your videos are so good I disable ad blocker before watching

How I love and enjoy your content!
I really missed these reviews.
Yours are the best comments one can find on yt.

I can't believe Fischer is still racking up wins in this day and age.
It is pretty remarkable.
Enjoyed the fewest option rule or thought process. I’m definitely going to keep that in mind.
Very nice game and video, the comments about move order were very instructive.
Thank you for this wonderful analysis.
Great instructional video again. Thanks for the great content.
Jerry, are we ever getting a face reveal? It’s seriously on my bucket list, to see the face behind the voice I’ve been hearing for days of footage. My life feels incomplete without it, im sorry.
“It’s not who you are underneath, but what you do that defines you”
Why you can't just appreciate his work and not bothering him with this nonsenses?
If he wanted to reveal his face, he would have done so by now.
Imagine standing at the store in line and you hear Jerry's voice "Milk to conveyor belt, this central post is the least flexible. Now let's surround it with granola bars and only then will we have the structure of snacktown."
Jerry has so many adoring fans. It’s just that they would like to see the person they are adoring. We don’t even know his last name.
It is worth mentioning that this game comes from round 17 of the 1967 Skopje tournament and that Fischer actually had the exact same position after 12 Kb1 in round 2 against Efim Geller but lost a wild tactical game in just 23 moves.

Just a thought. If you linked up with Ben Finegold, we could have Ben and Jerry's chess analysis whilst we ate ice-cream.
I really got a lot from your teaching about piece convergence squares and the possibility of piece flexibility in attack in determing move order.
Thanks for explaining the importance of the e6 pawn and not seeing it as only 1pt. Great lesson.
Welcome Scott 👍🏼
What you said goes along with Alekines quote "Flexibility is the essence of chess talent."
What always amazes me is the simplicity of a game that anyone can understand but...
It's been years. You're still my fav. You explain things so well 💪
Great game and Amazing analysis, please more of these Jerry!!
Very instructive!
Thank you Andy.

It reminds me of the tip "in quiet positions improve the position of your worst placed piece"
Thank you for sharing!
And thank you for watching. 👍
Excellent presentation, Jerry, as usual.
I just stumbled upon this channel and I must say I'm really enjoying these analyses.
so smooth win by fischer i love to watch all of his game highlights
The final thing working against black on move 19 was that he was playing against Bobby Fischer.
The legendary analyzer is back!
thank you again for the lesson!
Thank you Jerry!
