This is the story of the birth of modern chess - when the possibilities of chess as an art, a science and a sport all converged.
The point of convergence was a young boy from Louisiana named Paul Morphy. At a time when America was seen as a backwoods nation with little cultural history and even less intellectual impetus, at a time when chess was considered the exclusive property of a few European countries, at a time when the game was played successfully by a handful of men wizened by years, Paul Morphy, in the brief span of 19 months and with seemingly little effort, defeated conclusively every player he met.
While today few non chess players even know his name, he was one of the most famous celebrities of his time and within the hallowed halls of the chess playing community he is considered by some as the greatest chess player of all time.
But this diminutive, unassuming boy rose to fame almost out of nowhere and once he secured his place in history, he retired back into that hazy unknown, shunning the public eye, never again to play serious chess. Not only was he one of great practitioners of the game, but also one of it's greatest enigmas. He's been given the sobriquet, The Pride and Sorrow of Chess.

@Alex Pătraru You must be fun at parties.
It is indeed

Capablanca....'I'll just trade here, this is a won endgame".
Morphy......"I'm about to end this man's whole career."
Morphy truly was the supa-hot fire! 😂
What Morphy's opponents think that Morphy is thinking in the game: "...Oh Man, he looks so troubled, he must be calculating a mating idea..."
What Morphy's really thinking: "...Man, I hope I can find something to fix my flux capacitor..." :P
@@-_Nuke_- ''I wonder what I should have for dinner tonight.''
Lol
Morphy to his opponents: YOU ARE GRANTED THE RIGHT TO RESIGN.
If you give up the right to resign, any move you make can and will be used against you on the chess board.... 🤣
More like "You have my permission to die"
If you decline to resign.. you will be mated
Morphy doesn't win. He just allows you to lose.
Well said.
Paul morphy the type of dude to lick his finger before flipping the page on his newspaper
Alex Hashaga hahahaha
@@navymaanjaniwal ua-cam.com/video/JhlNjvqly_o/v-deo.html
Lmao!
My grandma does all the time :D i think old people do that so to have a better grip, otherwise it is harder to flip the page
Sorrily so
“THREATENING” to run away with the king 😂😂
LMAO ded
For a while Agadmator just wanted to enjoy the show, but today, congratulations, he was an excellent sipper of water
I don't know why this comment made me laugh so hard!
I admire the hell out of Morphy's play.
We all do!
Agad You make chess fun to watch just like a movie. I used to love chess but life took it away from me and I started playing chess again because of YOU. Thank you.
Same happened to me
I had received like from Agad but I lost it because I corrected the spellings. :-\
F
Just seeing how badly outplayed Lichtenhein is in this game is quite stunning. The players in this tournament were mostly all strong masters of the era and Morphy was far beyond them. Even Anderssen, whom I consider the de facto World Champion of his time (not Staunton), looked far below the standard of Morphy. That's saying a lot because Anderssen was one of the great players in his own right.
Um Staunton was better. Anderssen was more romantic and aggressive, but Staunton was better
@@COBRA-rq1ig No, Staunton lost badly to Lowenthal...
Doesnt mean anything
@@COBRA-rq1igStaunton in his prime was around 2370-2480 but Anderssen in his prime was much higher around 2500-2600
I started playing chess because of my friend and he used to just crush me with his queen so early in the game and i couldnt even defend against that. I was terrible, but then i got hooked to your channel and been watching you for like 3 months now pretty much every day. How the tables have turned, he doesnt wanna play against me anymore because i crush him :D I'm climbing to 1800 elo on lichess all thanks to you. You made this game fun for me. Your videos are so entertaining and clean. Clearly a lot of effort put into them and your analysis, showing different variations of moves with detail is just excellent and very informative. Thank you so much!
I'm rated 2000+ in all time controls. I would love to see him chase my pieces early in the opening with his queen. There is always a bigger fish! lol
You reached 1800 by watching a chess channel in 3 months? Wow. 😳
@@aryanmaheshwari4623 it's studying chess but having an experienced person point out things a novice wouldn't see.
Easiest way to learn chess now tbh and this channel is one of the best for clear analysis imo
3:49 Medo has left the chat
I always have to rewind, because as soon as Medo starts doing stuff there is no more brain cells for chess
I could just see Agad's eyes sparkle when he said " b4, Morphy goes for the Evans Gambit" (:
Agadmator has shown such adoration for the Evans Gambit that it should be renamed after him as the Radic Gambit
Joj Yes! Who the hell was Evans anyways?
David Fernández probably a man that earned that gambit by mastering it and play it... you have to put hard work to have your name on something. It s an honour and you have to earn it on 8x8
@@focsavictor8941 he was a Welsh sea captain, and the guy who played the Evans' Gambit for the first recorded time. Didn't really master it, but yes, you're right, the name should remain.
Lead Nitrate for that period i guess he was the master in that opening. Ofc after so many years we understand better and deeper the opening so give him credit.
Evan's gambit Radic variation somethin like that?😂😂
I wish we could get a time machine, bring Morphy to our time and let him study modern Chess theory and then face off against Magnus.
That would be the match of the millenia
It wouldn’t even be close. Morphy would destroy magnus
@@Sowboi1985 not really. Morphy had a beautiful playstyle but magnus is literally the strongest chess player ever
@@hk-ex4gw yea but would Morphy be stronger if he was allowed to study modern theory?
@@sorguvasfen2426 if he would study modern theory he would most likely not be super gm I
Paul Morphy is a real Monster of the chess. What a game!
6:36
Agadmator calls the rook a pawn. Well, i guess that was intentional looking at Theodore's position
I confirmed there is no troll for evan's gambit in this game.
you the real MVP
@@masanetthomas8586 ua-cam.com/video/JhlNjvqly_o/v-deo.html
@Peter Mortensen was that really necessary 😅😅😅
@@telvinamamub3454 yeah
@Peter Mortensen Evans *IS* possessive. Just like *Queen's* . But his name was "Evans", not "Evan" which means that it's " Evans' "(apostrophe at the end).
I am enjoying the Paul Morphy saga. He was a genius in Chess. Thanks for showing this game with the Evan’s gambit excepted,
Morphy is just a previous incarnation of Fischer, just messing with people.
Agreed. Kindred souls
that last Nf3 move defined as "calm move" is such a beautiful last move. Poetic ending.
watching his games, I really felt sad we lost morphy too early :(
Down a bishop and two pawns and just rolls through like a boss. I love Morphy.
I'm thoroughly enjoying this saga :)
Morphy was such an inspiring player, and seeing his art never gets old.
Agadmator, you made chess for me. I can never thank you enough.
Make chess for others! :)
@@agadmator I love you Antonio
@@rektifier6470 ua-cam.com/video/JhlNjvqly_o/v-deo.html
@@agadmator Please marry me ;)
What a game! Morphy is truly an artist!
Great to have stumbled upon an older show from you Sir.
I love your current work and your archive. Much respect ✌
The last move was so elegant!
Thank you so much agad, i was introduced to your channel about 2-3 years ago after i had googled pawn endgame, a "chess sorcery" was in the suggestions and o my god you won my heart. I had never studied or learned theory, all my play is from your videos, climbing for the 1600 on liichess. From the bottom of my heart i wanna thank you for reviving my love to chess
So much flex by Morphy
Morphy toys with these players. Because he is on another level.
nobody:
Agadmator: EVANS GAMBITTT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Random comment
"Bishop pair from hell is fully operational"is my favourite agad quote
I am extremely happy watching your videos everyday!!
Agad's description of Lichtenhein's Qxd4 move is the story of most of my moves in chess: "kind of makes sense, but loses terribly" XD
The final knight f3 move was indeed so calm, calculated and cold. A move of beauty
Dude one of the best top-of-screen quotes. Awesome
Man, watching you explain tactics makes me feel smart. But then it's just a feeling.
been watching your content for quite a long time now and I don't know why i haven't subscribed yet(dunno if it matters that much) so cheers for a new sub! i guess???
Hi
Your channel is very impressive.The way you represent the game is really awesome.And also your videos are giving me comfort during quarantine
Thank man. Love the saga
Great teaching--love the dog in the background.
One of the most entertaining games ever!
Probably the best match I've seen so far!
At 8:52 knight pair from hell. This time didn’t enjoy the show but found Rd1. Your videos are nice. Keep up your good work.
We need some preparatory videos before the candidates tournament! I was thinking it would be nice to view prior games of the eight challengers playing eachother.
im sad, but these videos do make me happy for a short while. thank you agadmator.
Finally the good stuff is back!
That quote is amazing.
The fact that you fixate over Paul Charles Morphy like I have just makes this channel the best. I think I should cop some merch.
You know your day is complete when you heard 'Hello everyone' by Antonio.
Man, I struggled to pronounce the Lichtenhein with pausing the video.. you're awesome. You should keep the tension of correct pronunciation for sometime, in the spirit of good game. Awesome content, as always.
I didn't realize an Agadmator video title could turn me on this much. Morphy and the Evans gambit? It's like Christmas in March.
6:18 Agad: it’s not much better
Me: yeah I know, it’s morphy what do you expect.
Morphy was toying with lichtemhein!!!!
favorite opening!
Wow. I enjoyed that one more than usual. Morphy basically terrorized his opponent over and over at the end with these suicide-like moves.
What a beautiful game!
Love the quote
what an incredible game. impressive.
Morphy, wrecking man's faith since 1850.
Thanks Agad for giving the people what they want - a nice Evan’s Gambit game.
Great stuff,keeps me gpin
We spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded ― that is the encouragement for people who have not.
Such a beautiful game
Hello Antonio, I always knew the basic rules of chess and abstract things like casteling, but you really showed me the beauty of this game. I showed my sister how to play and now we play a game nearly every day and she is fascinated by it. Thank you!
EXCITMENT IN ANTONIOS VOICE GAVE AWAY HIS FAVORITE OPENING EVER ;)
It looks like my armageddon games against Stockfish.
Evan's gambit by Morphy himself... What a treat to watch...
8:43 knight to g8 looks very interesting here too. It seems creushing bc you can pin queen on king after the queen checks on f7, if king just moves the pin is still there, the checks forcing black to lose queen or the game.
Morphy likes playing with his food.
Whenever Morphy met an opponent, he said, "You can resign before we start to play, or you can be humiliated and suffer ridicule throughout the rest of your life."
Very entertaining, Mr. Morphy!
thanks for putting morphy's game, morphy is the best
Morphy enjoys the beautiful, complex ideas. It's why his games are always fun to watch.
Morphy was a beast, he arguably could‘ve beat Stockfish.
xixo Story is he uploaded his mind into a computer. He goes by Alphazero nowadays
Caleb Robinson haha like that one. This dude played the best Chess players of his time and totally manhandled them. I don‘t know if Fischer, Kasparov or Magnus could do that to his opponents. Not to mention there was no engine back then.
Morphy: "You do not fear defeat, you welcome it, your punishment must be more severe"
The puppy that is seen in all your videos must have understood chess better than most of us.
First time I get the right move during those couple of seconds :D
Maravilloso!!!!
OMG. A superb game! Morphy.. the greatest of all time.
What the hell is happening, in this video we have agadmator analysis, Paul Morphy, Evans gambit and Neil degrasse Tyson's quote, that's like my 4 favourite things in life, this video is gonna be legend-wait for it- dary
Amazing stuffs
Lovely game. Morphy is brilliant.
beautiful
Very impressive moves
and it was in this position that they've decided to change "h" to "st"
Perfect game doesn't exist
Agadmator : Hold my chessboard.
Morphy seems to be the Rickson Gracie of chess. Unbeatable way back when and people want to time travel him to the present to see how he reacts to the evolved version of the game.
staggering !
Finally the Evans Gambit.
8:28 - Alright, I finally spotted one!
No one:
Morphy: you've lost your winning privilege
Who else thought to play queen captures on d4😅And agadmator answers you with "there were so many good options but he played the losing move queen captures on d4" and you felt like I gonna stop playing chess forever
Me 😅
Do a video on history of chess
Hey. Great show. Which is the next video in the Morphy saga?
The name of your dog means "fear" in Portuguese. Just out of curiosity. I love your channel, keep it up man.
An Evans Gambit game? And a Paul Morphy game? Now this is exciting stuff
I have not yet watched the video, but if we have both the 'Good Stuff' and the Evan's Gambit in the same video, this is a momentous occasion deserving of both the opening of a champagne bottle and the instant 'like'.
6:36 to gobble up this pawn
Rook: am I joke to you?
Paul really did a “you resign now” move...
Paul Morphy the type of dude to wear sock then shoe, sock then shoe
Brutal
