So every time I listen to this guy I fall when I play my own game which is similar I win? I think it's more about UA-cam;; money than anything? I'm not a professional but I hold my own.
For the puzzle, the winning move is Nxe5. If the opponent takes your queen, its checkmate after Bxf7+, Ke7, Nd5#. If the opponent takes the knight on e5, then you just take the Bishop on h5 and you won a pawn
@@roqsteady5290 Then white’s queen would take the bishop on h5, adding a second attacker to f7. I don’t know if it’s checkmate within a few moves, but that’s a dreadful position for black.
Your videos are so so instructive and enjoyable. I played really good chess in high school and made it to the big league competitions because of your videos a few years ago. Glad to see you are still in love with the game and continuing to grow.
great video. As a beginner with less than 50 games and at 50 years old, learning becomes much harder. bad memory power but still able to watch n learn from the great Bobby Fisher.
I started when I was 40. Just do thousands and thousands and thousands of tactics puzzles over a year and you'll start to see everything and then improve rapidly.
I like your channel. Thank you for being a pro by analyzing lots of games before the video - giving us something that's 'well-cooked', that's very appreciated. I wish you health and prosperity.

A bit confused. 8:50 isn't h3 a mistake as if Bxf3 and Qxf3 then Qxd4 and blacks win a pawn Alternatively gxf3 is playable but white king becomes exposed
Puzzle solution- Nxe5 if Bxd1 we play Bxf7+ and Ke7 is forced so we play Nd5# If he doesn't take the queen and instead takes the knight which he must do to prevent mate we simply take the bishop and we won a pawn.
With the Quiz at the end, this was my thought process. My first thought was to do B d5 threatening the Black Rook on a8 as a way to counter attack against Black, however my experience is that my instincts are nearly always wrong so that's obviously not the right answer. With that idea eliminated, I could only see 3 viable attacking moves (g4, B g5 or N d5). N d5 threatens very little so that's out of the question leaving only 2 options. B g5 can easily be countered by Black playing f6 forcing the Bishop to retreat so that's wrong. This leaves just g4. That move would force the Black Bishop back to g6, putting an end to the pin but then I'd have no clue how to follow it up. In the end I'd probably try this * g4, B g6. (freeing up the Knight on f3) * N d5 (However I'd have no way to predict Black's move and continue) That's as far as I can get, a position that seems to gain White nothing in terms of material or attacking threat. The only thing I am sure about is that the pin isn't an immediate threat as the Knight on f3 is defended twice
I like the thumnail-NICE TRY,LOL!!. To the point and funny. That's actually one of the secrets to your success as a UA-camr you understand the psychology of thumbnails. The right colours,to the point ,eye catching and funny when appropriate. That psychology degree has helped you more than you can imagine
Thanks for that. Fischer is the GOAT in my opinion. He destroyed all his fellow GM's and the Russian chess machine single handed. And without the help of computer chess engines which is what all pro chess players use the last 15 years. He also taught himself Russian and Spanish so he could follow all of their chess games as well.
Magnus Carlsen didn't have access to top level engines or anything close when he got GM title at 13. Also, the introduction of engines has made players stronger, but at the same time their competion increased in strength as well. It's not a fair comparison to compare based on that metric, and as such, may not even be fair or accurate to compare the different generations at all.
Fischer was pushing the limits of how good a chess player it was realistically possible for anyone to be in 1972. The same can be said of Morphy for 1858. And Magnus Carlsen, dominating in an era where some 40 "Super GMs" are above 2700 and all of them bring engine-prep, is arguably testing the limits of what is humanly possible _period_ without some futuristic brain-augmentation
Puzzel: 1. g4 Bg6, 2 Nh4 (Bishop is trapped and will be taken) Nxb3, 3. axb3 or 1. g4 Nxf3+, 2 Qxf3, bg6, 3. Bd4 (White occupies the centre and threatens a rook) Black has threats neutralised. White has more active pieces.
I imagine you have 1. Nxe5 in mind? White has a forced checkmate after 1. ... Bxd1 and will win material after dxe5. But what if black plays 1. ... Qh4? White's knight will have to retreat and will be traded off, demolishing the pawn structure.
Just to point out that Parma had the position after 12...f5 in the Poisoned Pawn variation twice against Fischer, once in 1965, drawing, and then again in 1970, which is the game he lost. He also had the exact same position against Buljovic in 1965 and against Barczay in 1969, winning both of those games. In all four games he played 13. Rfd1, so it seems somewhat disingenuous to describe this as the winning plan here. Rather one should simply admire the endgame technique of Fischer in managing to convert the 1970 game, although given the +210 rating point difference, perhaps one should also admire Parma for managing to make it so difficult.
First of all, saying that Italy and Germany makes bad cars is like saying the AK-47 is worse than the Krummlauf, second of all, U forgot China, third, Bugatti is NOT FROM FRANCE!!!
A bit confused. 8:50 isn't h3 a mistake as if Bxf3 and Qxf3 then Qxd4 and blacks win a pawn Alternatively gxf3 is playable but white king becomes exposed
Yes in the second game at 8:50, it looks like Bobby blundered the game away with h3 but his opponent and Igor missed it - which a lot of your opponents aren't going to do - especially these days. After Bxf3 White appears to lose either the d4 pawn or the h3 pawn if White tries taking back with gxf3. In either case Black is winning. I guess Igor got carried away with Bobby's general greatness and the "beating the pin" motif and forgot to check basic tactics. And a note for the person that left the comment that Bxf3 only wins two pawns for a piece - f3 is a knight not a pawn.
The computer doesn't like Qxd4, it gives white +1.5. I'm not seeing any win that follows from it though. Black's king can get a little exposed but there's no obvious attacking plan. In any normal game white just goes down a key central pawn for nothing and this line should be avoided, instead you play Ba4 or d3 earlier. If d4 was strong for white in the ruy lopez people would just be playing that all the time.
It feels good, as a 1050 idiot player, to come up with similar moves to what Bobby did so many years ago. I am learning the London and how, after our Bishop moves to inside the pyramid, black likes to try that pin and we don't care. We often are often moving our Queen for development anyway and we don't mid if they want to trade their bishop for our knight, as we ave moved our other bishop to d2 to replace it and continue our attack on e5. Other times, against fellow potatoes like myself, I like my chances with both sides queen-less, and it works out for me far more often than it doesn't so far.
2 questions: First, at 3:22, I'm not even seeing any other options other than pushing the pawn to attack the bishop, is that the only move that works? Second, at 8:43, why doesn't black just take the knight and after queen recaptures they take the d4 pawn with their queen? Only other option is doubling pawns, is either scenario still fine for white?
First one you could play d3 or d4 and open up your Knight and Bishop. Blacks attack isn't fatal (unless im missing something) d3 - Bxf3 gxf3 (King is now very exposed) - Qg6+/Qg7+ both available Kh1 - ?? Qg6+ doesn't win a pawn because E4 pawn is now guarded by F3 pawn.
@@TimeNap i mean yeah, the attack itself isn't fatal for now but exposing your king and doubling your pawns so early on in the game just feels like a really bad decision to make. and for the next one, my question was from after black trades the pawns, and the f3 pawn recaptures on d4. bishop takes knight, queen recaptures, leaving the d4 pawn hanging.
My king is already castled in this particular puzzle so that's out. Well you're welcome to demonstrate to me how my move fails. You're turn to move 🐿️.
@@shadeburst That's fine. But the best lesson is when I can see it on the board in front of me. And although the white king is exposed. There are still some potentially good moves left for white- after chasing the bishop. So, if I lose to you it's a win- because this is simply a lesson. If I win against you it's a win. Either way I don't have anything to loose.
Stockfish says that white is active enough to compensate after Rd1, bishop out, etc. It says that the position is rather equal, a bit in white's favour. Very good point, I was wondering about that as well.
Listen here, Bobby Fischer. I might have to watch a video on flushing the transmission but I can certainly change the oil. And I'm considering going with waterless coolant when I flush the cooling system. Waterless coolant is a thing. Google it...
It looks like you can sacrifice your queen for fork on their queen and bishop. g5-bxd1, bxf7- king to d7 because knight to d5 is check, so you go knight to e6 for the fork and if they move king to e7 you check mate them and if they don't it looks like you can keep the king in limbo with checks until you remove the rook. I think you get rook queen bishop for a queen. And then push pawns until you can figure that out. It was hard enough trying to keep track of the knight locations and where the king can go. King looks like it's forced into the middle of board.
you almost had it. there is actually a stronger move than knight g5 which is knight e5. after bxd1, bxf7-king is forced to e7 and than the other knight goes to d5 causing checkmate as both d7 and f6 are now covered
bxf3 probably. If that weren't the case then d5 is winning, since even if after d5, black plays b5, you can still take on c6, then b5xa4, qxa4, and black looks lost to me. Bobby was right with black's undeveloped pieces being able to successfully counterattack. Seems very logical to me actually. Especially with ne5, it's funny and crazy to me that black can't play qf7 and forces black into terrible positional chess. If Chess were basketball, Bobby would be the one you'd want taking the shot in order to convert a position into a win.
I almost auto play Be2/Bd2/Bd7/Be7 in Bullet/Blitz games. Maintains pawn structure, activates a minor piece, and unpins the Knight. Feels like a really natural move - especially in fast games.
I mean, white'll be up at least a pawn and there is shit to be stirred after Qxh5, both on f7 and e5. Maybe "winning" is a rather strong word, but I don't think there are many ways in which you lose in that position.
@@jakedardaris452 White doesn't need to sacrifice anything. After Qh4 white plays Ng4. The knight is pinned again, but now it has an extra pawn defending it and white's queen is safe. White has won a pawn from this sequence and has the advantage going forward.
You play B C4 if he does not take the knight you play kxC5 ! Then he would say wow I take the queen for free. But then you play B x F7 + and the king has no where to go but E7, and then u play k d4 ++. If your opponent does not know about this trick already he will be doomed.

"Take out a gun and shoot him in the leg" lmao that was not expected
Well it is now. Thanks a bunch.
@@ModernPrimate Yeah man, no problem

Nxe5 leads to mate if the white square bishop takes white's queen. Otherwise white goes a pawn up and an attack if black plays pxe5 due to Qxh5.

Just amazing how Fischer dismantled a player of Geller's caliber.
in the puzzle Nxe5 leads to legal's mate if they capture queen. If they take the knight instead you get the bishop and are still up a pawn.

If he doesn't take the queen and instead takes the knight which he must do to prevent mate we simply take the bishop and we won a pawn.
Igor Thank you. I have been out of playing chess for years. Think you may have inspired me to start again. 😎👍
1.Bxf7+, KxB 2.Ng5+, Ke8 3.QxB
If Bxf7, then bishop takes bishop
Ng5+ isn't defended, so Qxg5 defends his bishop

Exactly! For the want of a queen they lose their king.
Only if Black cooperates.
@@ems3832 True, Black can avoid the mate by taking back on e5, but then Qxh5 and White's up a pawn and threatening mate on the next move.

very informative
thx a lot dude

1. Nxe5 ; Qh4 2. Ng4 ; Bg4 3. Qxg4 ; Qg4 4. hg
and white is up a pawn and better developed…
Nxe5 Bxd8 Bxf7 Ke7 Nd5 mate (De Lègal tactical motif!)
This man is a walking voice crack
NxF5, if BXQ, then BxF7+, KE7, then ND5++, NxF5, if NxB3, then QxB, and if G6, then QF3, threatening mate, so PxN and PxN by white
Nxe5 if pawn captures then queen captures the bishop and we win and extra pawn But, if he plays Bxd1 then Bxf7 Ke7 and then Nd5#

A bit confused.
8:50 isn't h3 a mistake as if Bxf3 and Qxf3 then Qxd4 and blacks win a pawn
Alternatively gxf3 is playable but white king becomes exposed
Not really, a bishop equals 3 points of material, so 2 pawns actually leave white with plus 1.

"We mere mortals"- everyone but Fischer
Bobby's manager: you can't just shoot people in leg everytime they place that trick, jeez chill off , go to Iceland.
I think the puzzle is similar to the queen sac checkmate
1:07 - 1:09: as a fil-am, i can conform that that's one of the most American things to do.

2:00 Pawn h5
I like the ideia to ignore the oponent's errors, but I am not Fisher, so I don't think I can punish these pins....
Next level
is it Nxe5,Bxd1,Bxf7,Ke2,Nd5 mate?
Ne5,bxd1,Bxf7+,Ke7,Nd5#

First one you could play d3 or d4 and open up your Knight and Bishop. Blacks attack isn't fatal (unless im missing something)
d3 - Bxf3
gxf3 (King is now very exposed) - Qg6+/Qg7+ both available

in the case of game 2 where that pawn is still being attacked and threatening a early and bad trade of queens would bishop c to e3 be a bad move?
Your chess puzzle is my favorite mate. If white takes the queen
Knight E5
Fischer was 2785 after the WC v Spassky. If he ever played today (I know it's hypothetical) he'd be 2800+
I think I might go with attempting to remove that nasty pin. So, maybe my next move would be white pawn to g4?
It can be fun to hunt down that bishop but it exposes the king completely. Only do it if you plan to castle on queen side.

Thank you for giving Bobby the respect he deserves
U can finish the game in style here
It looks like you can sacrifice your queen for fork on their queen and bishop. g5-bxd1, bxf7- king to d7 because knight to d5 is check, so you go knight to e6 for the fork and if they move king to e7 you check mate them and if they don't it looks like you can keep the king in limbo with checks until you remove the rook. I think you get rook queen bishop for a queen. And then push pawns until you can figure that out. It was hard enough trying to keep track of the knight locations and where the king can go. King looks like it's forced into the middle of board.
you almost had it. there is actually a stronger move than knight g5 which is knight e5. after bxd1, bxf7-king is forced to e7 and than the other knight goes to d5 causing checkmate as both d7 and f6 are now covered
4:56 why doesnt white play pawn d5? what am i missing?
jk i see it
bxf3 probably. If that weren't the case then d5 is winning, since even if after d5, black plays b5, you can still take on c6, then b5xa4, qxa4, and black looks lost to me. Bobby was right with black's undeveloped pieces being able to successfully counterattack. Seems very logical to me actually. Especially with ne5, it's funny and crazy to me that black can't play qf7 and forces black into terrible positional chess. If Chess were basketball, Bobby would be the one you'd want taking the shot in order to convert a position into a win.
So that's why he made the goddamn rook move first, what a madman. He's a genius.
I wonder how stockfish 15 would handle pins
Bishop to E2 is not that passive. It can be played just fine.
I almost auto play Be2/Bd2/Bd7/Be7 in Bullet/Blitz games. Maintains pawn structure, activates a minor piece, and unpins the Knight. Feels like a really natural move - especially in fast games.
Nxe5 is certainly the best move in the puzzle but white is by no means 'winning'
I mean, white'll be up at least a pawn and there is shit to be stirred after Qxh5, both on f7 and e5. Maybe "winning" is a rather strong word, but I don't think there are many ways in which you lose in that position.
@@h-0058 after nxe5 qh4 white basically has to sac a piece to keep the queen.
@@jakedardaris452 White doesn't need to sacrifice anything. After Qh4 white plays Ng4. The knight is pinned again, but now it has an extra pawn defending it and white's queen is safe. White has won a pawn from this sequence and has the advantage going forward.
A fence is the best defense? Is that the motto?
what if they push pawn H5 after h3
Isnt bg4 in exchange ruy lopez theory? Blacks mistake was not taking on f3 not playing bg4.
Nxe5‼️😁
Just simple ignore it and push the left.
What if the bishop takes your knight
Igor your my best
"You're"
After white plays Nxe5, how do I handle black playing Qg5? I do not see how white is not losing a piece.
Bobby Fischer's aggressive style gives me anxiety, lol
Bobby is the GOAT!
Igor Smirnoff is the cousin of Ivan Popov.
e5
On the vid banner, should the g1 be white?
Oh I see it's cut off..
Your accent is awesome
Nxe5 Bxd1 Bxf7+ Ke73 Nd5#
H3 H5 is the theory
Who calls bobby fisher robert james 🤣
1.Bxf7 Kxf7 2.Ng5+ and discovered attack on bishop
that fails to BxF7
Start with Nxe5, methinks.
He punished Bg4, but I'm punished by Bg4
Bro u just like me fr 💀
❤
You play B C4 if he does not take the knight you play kxC5 ! Then he would say wow I take the queen for free. But then you play B x F7 + and the king has no where to go but E7, and then u play k d4 ++. If your opponent does not know about this trick already he will be doomed.
