I think Petrosian is one of the best tacticians ever, because in order to be an effective defender you have to see all the tactics just as well as the attacker, and defending itself is inherently tactical. Tal and Petrosian are two sides of the same coin.
@@achyuththouta6957 Tal is much better. tal has positive score against petrosian your gone crazy. Petrosian is definetly good player but not good than tal
Thanks so much for posting a Petrosian game. He doesn't have the flash of a Fischer or a Tal (who does?) but his moves are so logical that even I can understand them. Petrosian chess is sound chess. A study of his games is time well spent for both club players and experts. Iron Tigran. I really like this guy.
Started watching u like 2 months ago by accident, now i do it every time you upload I love the story part of the game! Don't take shit from haters you do you cause your supporters love it! Take care brother
Initially I thought it will be like Short's King March,but it's rather creative idea than that one,he built a castle on both sides of the board and switches his King to queenside as black can't do the same thing as well,then blast opens the kingside. It was like setting up some bombs on kingside and runs towards the other side as white king would suffer as well !wow! what an unique thought,amazing...btw very nice stream today and hope I'll see you in an upcoming streams and Thanks for these videos ...
Petrosian played this game very good. This video is fabulous because we can see there a funny and instructive game. Thank you very much Antonio for this video.
Its been awesome to see this channel grow so much awesome videos that are interesting and informative where as alot of other channels aren't as good as this one=)
There is one game with Tal (I believe) where the king marches straight into the middle of the board during the middle game to take matters into his own hands. lol
Thanks for showing this game on your channel. It's one of the fir5st games I've ever seen, over 45 years ago when I was still a child and had one chessbook only, in whicht this was a game shown in the first chapter. I have been promoting this one ver since, and am very happy to see it on your channel. Petrosian later played another game in which he repeated the trick of moving his king from g1 to b1. A defensive king march, maybe not so spectacular as the offensive king march in Short versus Timman, but still a revelation.
watching this video and your recent videos shows how much you improved your channel and your analyses, even your voice is somehow kinda more chessy :D chessy :| that is not even a word lol
What a fantastically methodical king march. Such a long range view putting the pawns like that in the beginning with the knight. I will remember this for my games. So much appreciated showing this game. You pick some really interesting games. If I could request, do you have a Danish gambit game that you like? I like Danish gambits. If you have a favorite game of that, maybe you could show it. Or just more Nezhmetdinov. =P Thanks again.
6:52 I thought queen captures,pawn captures and pawn to a4 was a great attack as the rook is already on the a file and the other rook can also join the attack and the bishop is on a nice diagonal aiming at the white king 🤔.Does anyone want to oppose me??
And comparing to these days where AI-Chess is showing us the way - especially AlphaZero loves King Safety and once it controls the opponent in the middle game in a way that there is no more move of improvement left - Alpha Zero is not afraid of king marches and remaneouvering to improve the defence before the final strike. These theme can be observed in many games - so very interesting. And in a way a tribute to Iron Tigran as well - of course.
I think that the problem would be that white have the b passed pawn. And I also think that white is better after that because is Petrosian who is offering a queen trade and black declines
He moved the king on a2 bcoz after pawn captures and queen captures the only option for white would be to exchange queens and since petrosian is covering major part of the board he doesn't want to exchange
I like this game and King's long march by GM Nigel Short to beat GM Thimman and quite recent GM Ding Laren's long King march to beat GM Magnus Carlsen.
Is it there any other good move instead of 25 Qa8? Looks like that from that moment black is completely paralyzed in defence and any attempt to get back the control of the c file is loosing.
I don't get why the other guy couldn't just push some pawns on the king side and move its pieces over there despite Petrosian's control over the c-file?
I am not so sure about this one since Petrosians king walk was met with inactivity by Unzicker, who seems to be out of ideas once the position was closed. If your opponent does nothing except wating moves, then, yeah, do whatever you want before your attack, repostion everyhing to your liking and then go for it.
AFAIK, it's dangerous to attack kingside when your king is also on the kingside. One mistake and the opponent may crush not only your attack, but also your defense, winning tempo on your own king and etc.
I see a lot of chatter about the pronunciation of Unzicker's name. A way around this would be to run the names thru Google Translate and play the audio if there's some doubt about the pronunciation. I think Ken Middleton, the announcer at Mohawk, does something like this before he calls a harness program to try and get right the names of the horses and drivers. He's one of the best in the business. Here's his call of the Pepsi North America Cup: ua-cam.com/video/hZkUUfe7FI0/v-deo.html
Really enjoy your channel' I'm curious as how do you find the time? Do you work from home , have your own business? Keep the videos coming. Your English is very good' where did you learn it. Signed: Bruce Martin
+rvt911 I do have a daily job, but I'm on vacation 2 weeks now. It's not from home, but some 7 min walk from home. I learned english on Cartoon Network as a kid. And thank you for your support, Bruce :)
Agadmator is the best chess channel. Kingcrusher is analytic but boring, Mato hates black pieces and everyone else is just boring. Agadmator is fast and clear, so the match is never boring to watch.
"Make sure you watch this game from a safe distance." :D I sat too close!!! Got stepped on by Petrosian's king.
"Damn, I castled on the wrong side. Well, not to worry. I'll just move to the other side. No problem."
I think Petrosian is one of the best tacticians ever, because in order to be an effective defender you have to see all the tactics just as well as the attacker, and defending itself is inherently tactical. Tal and Petrosian are two sides of the same coin.
Lol
Petrosian is much better than Tal . No comparison between both
@@achyuththouta6957 Tal is much better. tal has positive score against petrosian your gone crazy. Petrosian is definetly good player but not good than tal
@@achyuththouta6957 What the hell did you just say? 😂😂
I'm sure you understood the intent. Correct him, so that he learns.
I've never been one to make predictions but i can tell you're going to be very successful in this if you keep making videos like this.
Well, people do seem to enjoy these videos. We'll see how it goes :)
Prediction confirmed.
@@SymphonyOfAThousand u can say that again. he only gets better with time
April 2019: more than 400K excellent subscribers, the figure steadily increases.
Prediction reconfirmed again
Definitions:
King Walk - The King is frog-walked to his doom.
King March - The King moves in as a support piece on the way to victory.
U have it wrong, the king becomes a support piece in the end game, this little march by petrosian is something totally different lol
This is a king stroll
King yank - when your opponent rages and whacks his king across the room.
Dogs go on walks, armies go on marches.

Iron Tigran... my favorite player ever!
Don’t ever compare tal or anyone besides probs only Kasparov to Fischer

@Rizky Satya nah dude you just stupid
I love tigran. He was a giant killer who had a unique understanding of the game. Thank you sir.

+stefan kalniev Thanks a lot, Stefan. Some lucky accident that was :D
What haters? How can one possibly hate this?
Tigran Petrosian is one of the most underrated world champion. Yet, he is still my favorite
Initially I thought it will be like Short's King March,but it's rather creative idea than that one,he built a castle on both sides of the board and switches his King to queenside as black can't do the same thing as well,then blast opens the kingside.

Its amazing how he put black in such a tough position (while still castling) that his king got a free walk. Unzicker was simply wasting turns there.
Tigran Petrosian King Walks always lights up my day!!!!!!!
Tigran was BY FAR the BEST defensive player in history. I doubt Magnus himself would find it easy to break through that defense.
Petrosian played this game very good. This video is fabulous because we can see there a funny and instructive game. Thank you very much Antonio for this video.
Thanks Petru :)
Its been awesome to see this channel grow so much awesome videos that are interesting and informative where as alot of other channels aren't as good as this one=)
what a game !!! never seen such king march .well done agadmator.good choice of game selection.
+Arijit Mukherjee Thank you! It was quite the march :)
There is one game with Tal (I believe) where the king marches straight into the middle of the board during the middle game to take matters into his own hands. lol
Would like to see that!
Absolutely loves this game! Moving the king back behind that castle was so genius! Black could only watch the brilliancy unfold!
Complete domination from Petrosian, thanks for a Petrosian Game, I really love how he dominates
haha "Make sure you watch this game from a safe distance"
The master of defence allows for no counter play, love it
I absolutely loved how serious he seemed when he warned us to watch this/it from a safe distance
Awesome stuff man! Love watching your videos. Keep em coming!
+Marvin Pereira Jr. Thanks Marvin. I will :)

wonderful how knight owns rook in this game. And ofc wonderful king defensive plays around the pawn.
great comment from Euwe, such an instructive and interesting game from Petrosian. thank you Anton.
Best chess channel ever
Probably the best game I have seen.
That was some original play!
Great post.
I love this game, such a cool strategy, it's almost engine like in the dance of the kings, only one of the kings does not know where it belongs.
i m a big fun of your channel , from Algeria ;)
You must be a lot of fun :)
Great game as always.
+Locutus D'Borg Thanks man. And thank you for your contribution, it's much appreciated! :)
I love your channel
I stumbled upon your UA-cam channel recently and I can have enough
Keep the good work
Yes. This game is very pleasing

ONE OF MY FAVOURITE & GREATEST CHESS CHANNEL FOREVER...EVERGREEN
Nice game. well explained too.
+DANTE TORRES thanks Dante+

I love this channel and the guy who is talking is cool
Two different Agadamtor ..... Agadamator in 2017 and now Agadamator in 2019 ..... Very wonderful transformation and I loved this transformation
It remindes me of a karpov game. When he had all under controll and could move his pices freely with out worry about conterplay.
You're a great commentator agadmator, your should become an official chess commentator :)
Incredible
Good video
He followed Ben Finegold's rule: Always play Kb1! Who cares if you castled King's side.
Thanks!
i like ur channel good luck
Great content. You may very well reach at least 1M subscribers in, let's say, 2021.
Nice game and very good explain.
6:52 I thought queen captures,pawn captures and pawn to a4 was a great attack as the rook is already on the a file and the other rook can also join the attack and the bishop is on a nice diagonal aiming at the white king 🤔.Does anyone want to oppose me??
Came to see young Agadmator and young Medo.
it was beautiful!
@2:05, why isn’t Bishop to H7 an instant checkmate?
the pawns at 5:10 really are nice looking
Wow. Just wow. Games like like are galaxy size amazing.
OG Agad
thank u man
Tigran!!
Masterpiece art
Interesting ☺👍

6:12 ..... an angel passes ...
6:49 After a queen trade, black would be able to push the a-pawn again to break the fortress, right?
I think that the problem would be that white have the b passed pawn. And I also think that white is better after that because is Petrosian who is offering a queen trade and black declines
Why can't black play 39....f5 at 7:02? It would close the position completely on the kingside, and prevent white playing g4
Marcus Aurelius I think that makes the pawn on e6 too vulnerable.
At 9:02 ..What If he move his king to e7
If Rook captures rook then King captures knight ..And Tigran will be down a Piece ??
King March, by Petrosian
I call this the famous bunny 🐰 hop move.
Many top players of his time were critical of his play, they didn't understand his play....until it was too late.😉
Unlike 300...
He is a master of timing😀
his style is opposite to Mikhail Tal's style, totally.
If you like long king march, even though it's an offensive walk of the white king the Short Timman game as a fun king walk
I know of this game, it's a nice one :)
Oh my gosh what a wonderful move Kg to f1
The EYE of the Iron Tiger.
"It is to Petrosian's advantage that his opponents never know when he is suddenly going to play like Mikhail Tal."
Boris Spassky.
Agad, can you do a video on one of Max Euwe's games?
He moved the king on a2 bcoz after pawn captures and queen captures the only option for white would be to exchange queens and since petrosian is covering major part of the board he doesn't want to exchange
too good
He literally dictated the pace of the game from beginning to end. Amazing.
Plz also upload the game - Petrosian vs John A Peters (1976)
Nice
Jedva sam se sjetio ko je taj "Juniker": Unciker po Vuku, a Unzicker po Johanu Wolfgangu
Wonderful game.. Methodical!!
Please do a deep dive analysis on Tigran Petrosian games. This is THE WAY. “Mein System”.
I like this game and King's long march by GM Nigel Short to beat GM Thimman and quite recent GM Ding Laren's long King march to beat GM Magnus Carlsen.
Is it there any other good move instead of 25 Qa8? Looks like that from that moment black is completely paralyzed in defence and any attempt to get back the control of the c file is loosing.
First! Love your vids Antonio, keep it up!
+Simon Liao Thanks Simon! Congratz on being first :)
I don't get why the other guy couldn't just push some pawns on the king side and move its pieces over there despite Petrosian's control over the c-file?
What does white play if instead of Rb6+ , right before the end, black just plays e6xf5?
If the rook never goes to b6, the fork will never be there
And since the rook on d8 is pinned, the rook on d6 is needed to defend d7
Never mind.. I see the Qxd6+
What's wrong with queen captures pawn?
Knight B to D2 ( so fun to say)
Nice commentary as usual, but I really don't think the "z" in Unzicker is mute 😊
+Hallands Menved I really suck at German :)

Notice how petrosian capture knight first simply bcause knight could jump over his wall of defence

Why dont black attacked when white king was marching??
