2:13 i disagree with Korchnoi, Bg5 is not the best move, its what he played Bg4 reason been, in this positions you want to castle queen side, and Bg5 will be ahead of the pawn storm, so you will have to waste a tempo to remove the Bishop, also Yuri Averbakh said so and he had a game with Sarvarov 1959
castilng queen side is the weakest plan after Bg5 , main plans are to exchange on d5 and go for minority attack or play on the the centere with f3 and e4 , i mean Bf4 is the new theoritical move to create some complications but Bg5 is still the best move
You’re wrong mate. If white castles queenside with his bishop on g5, then black would ruin his position completely if he would chase that bishop. Why would black do a pawnstorm on the side his own king is?
Thank you so much!!
Refreshing! It's like listening to a grandpa's story! 🙂
Жаль что не по русски
A joy to hear from one of the greats.
Legend !!
Thank you for this.
amazing, simply amazing
Wow. Thank you.
This is absolutely awesome. Why is the video unlisted?
"Ein Springer am Rande bringt Kummer und Schande"...however, exceptions confirm the rule! :-)
I’ve always detested korchnois games as although fighting I thought they’re ugly. But watching him on video analysing I’m becoming a fan of his.
Somehow his games look ugly and lack finesse that we see in dynamic players like Kasparov, Spassky, Anand etc.,
Undoubtedly, one of the greatest legends in the history of chess.

i am facinated with this comment, absolutely mainline queens gambit declined.
Unfortunately for him Karpov was superior and beat him in 3 matches.
Karpov beat Korchnoi in 1974 finals, 1978 WC and destroyed him in 1981 WC but he did not respect Karpov. Loser'
