Mato, I love the way you present Judit Polgar's games. You have such a great sense of humor that made me love her even more. She rules!!!! And you're my favorite presenter!
@@MatoJelic The line “Classical Polgar, she starts to attack (people or) pawns without any reason” must be THE BEST CHESS LINE EVER. Thanks Mato, you always make my day.
I'mma watch your vids regardless, you're the best chess analyst ever. So simple, humorous......just amazing. But some of your vids lack fps and quality, and the proper is here
Thanks for the commentary. I suppose Mamedyarov simply moved d4 with the view to exchage pieces in the centre and never thought Judit would come up with Ng5 which was absolutely crazy idea to think let alone move. From then on he was trying to preserve his survival and found his monarch in the middle of battle field without adequate security. The rest is just history as Judit demonstrated why she was revered as the best women player ever.
Very nice again, I have done such a similiar sacrifice on f7 pawn with my white Bishop in Spanish and won game within some 30 moves...I have to learn more about Spanish, seems to be strong and very active game for white... Pavol- Slovakia
After watching this a second time, I must say Polgar is the reincarnation of Tal. It is a most beautiful game. GM's probably complain that all she wants to do is attack their king. A good strategy, I think. Thanks, Mato, for recognizing genius.
The line “Classical Polgar, she starts to attack (people or) pawns without any reason” must be THE BEST CHESS LINE EVER. Thanks Mato, you always make my day.
I really want to ask what on 5:45 on move 24th what if black plays Nxe7 i mean 24...... Nxe7 25. Rxe5 still black is somwhat ok or maybe better with 3 pieces for queen and rooks will be coming to game... what is correct continuation for white after black play Nxe7
To be able to counter the Queen and ignore the threat the piece has multiple times in a match is insane. Doesn't matter who she plays man, she gets the job done.
Judit is such a fearless attacker. So many of her games she could slow or stop the attack altogether and just win from her current winning position she created (play safe chess at that point) but time and again she continues with her ongoing precise and accurate follow through, almost as if to test herself. Any miscalculations at that point would be a loss for her(being down so much material) but her calculations are almost always right🍷🤔 Fischer himself knew she was a genius when she was only a teenager.
Incredible attack. You have to love the bishop being unable to capture the white queen on f3 because of the diagonal pin exerted by the white bishop. Very powerful playing by Polgar.
A brilliant game: such foresight and boldness! Thanks for all your superb videos, Mato. You have a cheerful calm that's very pleasing, I was thinking as well as a karate master you might be a Zen master (but with your favourite films I'm not so sure) :) Oh, one little thing- like the Chinese (among other Asians), Hungarians have the family name first, so on another youtube game I've just watched it should have been Hou Yifan v Polgar Judit! Not that she's bothered since she goes by the name Judit Polgar here and elsewhere.
I juz luuuv the concept "critical position"... and that Mato gives you the chance to think... I sometimes get them right: I saw this one but couldn't figure out what would follow after: BxNf7, BxBf7+ KxBf7, Qf3+ Kg8, QxNc6 dxc3, bxc3... Black is "dislocated"... but only one pawn down. Although I wouldn't be happy to defend with Black... and certainly not against HER!!! ;O)
Hi Mato, wouldnt the king live longer if at 5:42 instead of kd6, kc8, black will still loose queen , but he will have a rook, and 2 knights ahead? Greetings from Romania
it seemed that the only way I would ever get chess instruction was to win the lotto and then buy some, now mato makes it available for free, I like this guy
+Connor Smutny not only hopeless, even forced checkmate. Re1 Kd5 or Kd6, Qe6#. Not capturing the Rook on e5 leads to losing another 2 pieces or checkmate
Misclickable Possible continuation will be queen to f3 ,Qe7,QxNc6+,QxRa1 disastrous for black. or else after bishop takes knight,Qf3,Nxe5,Re1 again knight is pinned and bishop is exposed to threats. PS: i am no expert as u can see so corrections are welcome
mato, i watch your chess lectures all the time. one time i went to someone else to watch a lecture and they were horrible compared to you. keep up the good work.
It sounds like you're suggesting 22. Qf7+ Kc8 23. Rxe5 Kxe5. If that happens, then 24. Qxe6+ Kd7 to block, and 25. c3xd4... This is what I thought, but it gets complicated. I decided to check with the Houdini engine to be sure, and it says this is actually the best line for black after 22. Qf7+. It still evaluates that white has the equivalent of more than two pieces advantage.
lovely game.. I like the style played by Tal and Polgar just reminds me of him it is exciting to play with focus on getting checkmate while developing the needed pieces not all the board
maybe she was thinking that bishop is defender of f3 square.. she just hold on win a piece and affraid that her king gonna play on center of the board. sorry for bad english
+Agus Setiono Had Mamedyarov foreseen the end he would probably played Bxf7 and let himself struggle in an inferior game. He thought he could wriggle out of it. besides his pieces are more developed than Judit so it is understandable and a bit of fun to run around until he realized he can't run away from centre squares.
5:45 Why did he move his King to d5 instead of playing knight C4 takes on e7? He will have 2 Rooks, a Knight and a Bishop against one Queen and one Rook. Sounds like he could at least draw. What did I miss?
It's a lost position. White rook takes queen and black cannot capture rook with king. It's because another rook comes to e1 (check) and after king goes to d6 or d5, Qe6 is checkmate. And if black do not take rook, they'll loose one of the knights. Which leaves white queen and two rooks against two rooks, bishop, and knight.
Salmarwow, exactly correct. K...1492 playing Nxe7 would've been practically suicide. Shirov was lost either way ,but he saw that the complications were harder to calculate by keeping his knight on c6. Good question, and precise answer🍷😉
I love to play like this mato.... i recently play a game like this... in that there was a bishop sacrifice line but i guessed the line but couldnt find continuation.. so i play safely and won.. but after the game played i analyzed game then i saw that bishop sacrifice line was great.. mate in 5... but i couldnot find it. :(
If I were playing against Mato, he'd start with "And we have reached critical position of the game" before we even played the first move, because I am gonna lose so bad....
At 3:34 taking with the king is the mistake black makes to allow her to even have an attack. If he recaptures f7 with his light square bishop then her attack is completely avoided. Or am i missing something?
when you asked to pause the video. i found judits move in about 7 seconds. i saw it coming. I'm not an experienced chess player tho. i just figured sacrifice the knight get king in the middle and then start attacking until something works out for you. I've been playing for about 2 months now.
Mato, I love the way you present Judit Polgar's games. You have such a great sense of humor that made me love her even more. She rules!!!! And you're my favorite presenter!
Thank you
@@MatoJelic The line “Classical Polgar, she starts to attack (people or) pawns without any reason” must be THE BEST CHESS LINE EVER. Thanks Mato, you always make my day.
At this point I just like Mato's videos before I even watch them because I enjoy every single one of them. Thanks Mato, I love your channel.
Thank you.
Can you post you comment here too: chessschoolsa.wordpress.com/about-mato-jelic/
After watching this game, I once again realize why I am not Master. Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
I think my friend was right. Judit Polgar is a cat's whisker away from being the first world champion. Thanx for bringing this to us, Mato
thx for this, i found out about judit recently and grew very fond of her game
Always a treat to log on and find a new Mato video waiting to be watched.
I'mma watch your vids regardless, you're the best chess analyst ever. So simple, humorous......just amazing. But some of your vids lack fps and quality, and the proper is here
Good presentation!!! Short and to the point, with enough variations displayed, really educational!

I would say that this is one of my favorite games so far
Love watching games of Judit or Magnus! They're both amazing!
NATO-excellent video and just enough analysis. Thank you and keep them coming!
A truly magnificent game. Many thanks!
After watching this a second time, I must say Polgar is the reincarnation of Tal. It is a most beautiful game. GM's probably complain that all she wants to do is attack their king. A good strategy, I think. Thanks, Mato, for recognizing genius.
I think that's the whole purpose of the game chess.
Judit Polgar is Judit Polgar. She doesn't need to be anyone's reincarnation. She's a grandmaster and she will be remembered.
The line “Classical Polgar, she starts to attack (people or) pawns without any reason” must be THE BEST CHESS LINE EVER. Thanks Mato, you always make my day.
Superb attack! Congratulations to Mato for allowing us such a wonderful chess lesson! And thanks!
amazing !!! the most unpredictable moves ive seen. polgar rocks!
She is, she’s totally unpredictible and a genius
everyday i'm watching your videos, at least 2 videos per day ... thank you so much.
Polgar’s best games are exhilarating. I like her style.
I really want to ask what on 5:45 on move 24th what if black plays Nxe7 i mean 24...... Nxe7 25. Rxe5 still black is somwhat ok or maybe better with 3 pieces for queen and rooks will be coming to game... what is correct continuation for white after black play Nxe7
Black is doomed then too. 25. Rxe5 Kxe5 ( almost forced since Both the knights are being attacked by rook and queen.). 26. Re1+ Kd3 or d4 27.Qxe6#
* it is 26. Re1+ Kd5/d6 27.Qxe6#.
Yes, I do. Koji hoces?
Thank you Mr. Mato for this great analysis
To be able to counter the Queen and ignore the threat the piece has multiple times in a match is insane. Doesn't matter who she plays man, she gets the job done.
Mato
one year of viewing your videos improved my 20 years old knowledge about chess.
What a game Mato!!!
What attacking game!!!
Judit is such a fearless attacker. So many of her games she could slow or stop the attack altogether and just win from her current winning position she created (play safe chess at that point) but time and again she continues with her ongoing precise and accurate follow through, almost as if to test herself.

Incredible attack. You have to love the bishop being unable to capture the white queen on f3 because of the diagonal pin exerted by the white bishop. Very powerful playing by Polgar.
At 5:45 , isn't NcXe7 possible?
A brilliant game: such foresight and boldness! Thanks for all your superb videos, Mato. You have a cheerful calm that's very pleasing, I was thinking as well as a karate master you might be a Zen master (but with your favourite films I'm not so sure) :) Oh, one little thing- like the Chinese (among other Asians), Hungarians have the family name first, so on another youtube game I've just watched it should have been Hou Yifan v Polgar Judit!

clear, coherent and to the point. great vids.
Is it just me or is Polgar's matches always crazy and beautiful?
Mayo do you have any videos on how to play against rut Lopez exchange variation for black
Very high level chess i wish i could play like this someday.
Rrun for the king... run for his life :D I love her style of playing.
At 5:45 why didn't Black capture the Bishop on e7 with the c6 Knight ?
Another Judit !!! Her games are full of beautiful tactics. Thank you Mato!
Thank you
Wonderful hoodwinking by Judith. Thanks for the video.
She's ruthless! Thanks for sharing, Mato.
Great commentary (as always). Thank you Mato!
I have to wonder what the losers who downvote this are thinking.
Misogynists, very likely
3:30 can someone please explain why he didn't take the knight with his bishop instead of king ??! any help is much appreciated :)
MatoJelic can you help on this please?
***** thnx for the reply. Well, the move that was played in the game wasn't any better so I don't feel bad for not seeing this variation :D
wonderful game. thanks for sharing it
This is why Judit was and still is revered in chess world. Mamedyarov is no fluke. He wasn't top ten then but still member of 2700 club back then.
Thank you for sharing. Great video.
I've noticed mato you haven't made another polgar video in a while! :) Maybe you could make another for us? thanks!
I am a beginner. Amazing match. Thx.
amazing attack and impressive discipline
Thanks 👍
2:18 can you explain why he didn't take the Kd7?
I think because white can play c3xd4 and it looks dangerous. Knight on c6 is pinned.
I juz luuuv the concept "critical position"... and that Mato gives you the chance to think... I sometimes get them right: I saw this one but couldn't figure out what would follow after: BxNf7, BxBf7+ KxBf7, Qf3+ Kg8, QxNc6 dxc3, bxc3... Black is "dislocated"... but only one pawn down.
Although I wouldn't be happy to defend with Black... and certainly not against HER!!!
;O)
I dream of having the chance. IT would be an honor
This is a good game ,to be seen many time
One of my favorite games now
I love this game!
Hi Mato, wouldnt the king live longer if at 5:42 instead of kd6, kc8, black will still loose queen , but he will have a rook, and 2 knights ahead? Greetings from Romania
Wonderful game! Thank you Mato.
2:24 Kd7? 2:32 Qg2? for black
(Halloween Gambit, NN vs Brause). If you remembered the settings and implemented them in next vids, it'd be awesome.
it seemed that the only way I would ever get chess instruction was to win the lotto and then buy some, now mato makes it available for free, I like this guy
I love games where the king is forced out into the open by the capture of a pawn with the knight.
Awesome. Thank you!
kd7 instead of bd5?
Mato, jel pricas neki jezik sa balkana? / Mato, do you speak some language from balkan ?
mato what can be the variation once knight takes Bb3
When the white knight was pushed from F3-G5, what's stopping black from capturing the knight with the queen?
Mato can you plz tell me why black didn't capture bishop at e7??
+Theokritos Veskoukis because if Nxe7 then Rxe5, Kxe5, Rae1, Kd5, Qxe6 = bad situation for black
thx :)
Amazing 👌
5:24 What about queen takes knight?
checkmate after queen takes black knight
What a game!!!
wow!!! thanks for this, mato :)
What will happen if knight takes on e7 at 5:46?
Why not Nxe7 when bishop check was played?
NìkhîL Gøkúl then Rxe5? then Kxe5 and king is hopeless?
+Connor Smutny not only hopeless, even forced checkmate. Re1 Kd5 or Kd6, Qe6#. Not capturing the Rook on e5 leads to losing another 2 pieces or checkmate
Why doesn't the bishop take the knight at f7 at 3:40?
Misclickable Possible continuation will be queen to f3 ,Qe7,QxNc6+,QxRa1
disastrous for black.
or else after bishop takes knight,Qf3,Nxe5,Re1 again knight is pinned and bishop is exposed to threats.
PS: i am no expert as u can see so corrections are welcome
Chinmay Shetye Thanks :)
@5:46 knight take bishop on e7??
1. ... NxBe7
2. RxQe5 KxRe5
3. Re1+ Kd6 (or Kd5)
4. Qxe6++
mato, i watch your chess lectures all the time. one time i went to someone else to watch a lecture and they were horrible compared to you. keep up the good work.
It sounds like you're suggesting 22. Qf7+ Kc8 23. Rxe5 Kxe5.

This is what I thought, but it gets complicated. I decided to check with the Houdini engine to be sure, and it says this is actually the best line for black after 22. Qf7+. It still evaluates that white has the equivalent of more than two pieces advantage.
Mato shows very beautiful chess game with ctitical position!
"What do you think of this game?"
lovely game..
I like the style played by Tal and Polgar just reminds me of him
it is exciting to play with focus on getting checkmate while developing the needed pieces not all the board
What if bishop takes knight instead of king after knight takes F7 ?
maybe she was thinking that bishop is defender of f3 square.. she just hold on win a piece and affraid that her king gonna play on center of the board. sorry for bad english
Bxf7; Bxf7 Kxf7; Qf3+ Ke8/Ke7; Qxc6 and white gets her material back plus attack.
+Raghubar Tyagi Thanks :)
Thanks for this!
3:35 why not BxN in f7 ?
ahmad alahmadi Bcos B3 x f7; if King takes, then Qd1 - f3+, winning Nc6
+Agus Setiono Had Mamedyarov foreseen the end he would probably played Bxf7 and let himself struggle in an inferior game. He thought he could wriggle out of it. besides his pieces are more developed than Judit so it is understandable and a bit of fun to run around until he realized he can't run away from centre squares.
why he didn't take bishop with knight on e7 ?
Than rook takes queen and king takes rook, check with another rook, king moves to d5 or 6 than Checkmate with queen
Beautiful display of patience here.
at 5:46 the knight could have taken the bishop, what´s the problem with it?
on 3:35 what if black bishop takes white horse on f7?
Then bishop takes after king takes queen f3 attacking king and knight
5:45
Why did he move his King to d5 instead of playing knight C4 takes on e7?
He will have 2 Rooks, a Knight and a Bishop against one Queen and one Rook.
Sounds like he could at least draw. What did I miss?
It's a lost position. White rook takes queen and black cannot capture rook with king. It's because another rook comes to e1 (check) and after king goes to d6 or d5, Qe6 is checkmate.

Love Mato’s voice and humour
Cool
Can someone explain to me why black didnt just use his knight to take white bishop at 5:45, thereby stopping CM, and winning a piece?
I love to play like this mato.... i recently play a game like this... in that there was a bishop sacrifice line but i guessed the line but couldnt find continuation.. so i play safely and won.. but after the game played i analyzed game then i saw that bishop sacrifice line was great.. mate in 5... but i couldnot find it. :(
Fantastic attacking chess skills by J. Polgar! Just like a female Tal!
More like a Female version of a genius. No need to mention she’s a female. She’s still a genius
but when she gave check on e7 why not knight takes on e7?
If I were playing against Mato, he'd start with "And we have reached critical position of the game" before we even played the first move, because I am gonna lose so bad....
Mato is in love with Judit!
very good tactics, thanx
3:45 For the best description of Polgar.
At 3:34 taking with the king is the mistake black makes to allow her to even have an attack. If he recaptures f7 with his light square bishop then her attack is completely avoided. Or am i missing something?
I think i`m starting to like Judit`s game.

Her games are the most fun to watch.
if you think her games are most fun
watch tal games :)
what I am looking is a game between Judith and Tal. I like to see how will Tal fare against Judith if he can be able to pull a win against her.
She is my favorite female player
