      If you move your bishop here, there is a pawn in front of it, it has no scope.

    Morphy CRUSHED the best players of his time, taking chess as a childhood past time... retiring at 13 after smashing Lowenthal, coming out of retirement at 20 to kill time and show the chess world who was boss, he studied and played little chess by any chess master standar and so was at the BEGINNING of his true chess potential, yet was essentially invincible... as Anderssen himself said so... yeah the greatest chess genius in hi story

  • @crazyboysince1998
    @crazyboysince1998 2 роки тому

    It's actually funny if you ever get the chance to do what morphy did with the queen holding the d2 pawn in place and then going on an attack while they literally can't even move. I've done it twice because well usually you can't do it but when the moment is there try it it's really funny. I love that we can get little tips like that from masters of the game just like fishers book taught me to go h4 h5 if facing the sicillian dragon to open the file and to be honest it works like 90 percent of the time. So much information in our era that even noobs can learn good strategies from top players

      Greatest player who had no one to show him how to be a great player or what great play looked like. Modern GMs study with other GMs when they’re young, and they study the games of the great GMs from history, neither of which was available to Morphy. The fascinating thing about him is how he was so much greater than anyone before or contemporary to him. It’s unclear how he got so good. He’s just a massive outlier in the progression of chess ability over time. I dunno, maybe it would’ve made more sense for him to have existed a few decades later 😁

I mean, I get that he would later go on to lose to Morphy in 1858, but do those seven years not count for anything?
