“There are tough players and nice guys, and I'm a tough player." -R.J. Fischer

Tf u talking about@@teddymagcawas1332
I just can't believe how Bobby played at only 16 years old and I can't even think that anyone is ever better than him. Thank you Bobby for everything.
Morphy Tal Alekhine Kasparov had More beautiful games than Fischer! Fischer beat the weakest chess World champion Boris Spassky only 17 wins 10 losses! Capablanca would beat Spassky easily 8 wins 6 draws zero losses! Carlsen would beat Spassky easily 6 wins 6 draws zero losses! The highest tournament elo rating score is Fabiano Caruana 8,5/10 StLouis elo 3080! Karpov 11/13 Linares 1994 elo score 3040! Alekhine in San Remo 1930 elo score 3040! Fischer his best tournament score only 2990! Karpov has won over 160 super grand Master tournaments! Fischer won zero! Fischer was Second in Santa Monica 1966 behind blunder maker Spassky! Fischer did not won Havanna 1965! Fischer won only interzonals 1962 1970!
@@RaineriHakkarainen, Spassky isn't weak. He has an even record against Kasparov at 2 wins and 4 draws each, and they didn't even start to play until Spassk was no longer in his prime and not playing nearly as strong as he did in the 60s and mid-70s. However, Kasparov was in his prime, so calling Spassky weak doesn't make sense.
Spassky was just as strong as any of them, even Fischer. The only reason Fischer won is he prepared harder than anyone else in the history of the game.
Wonderfully worded!!!

Well said!!!
A fabulous choice of RJF's chess games w/a superb commentary...& a great post!
I believe a young Bobby Fischer would hold his own now against anyone.
How anyone could foresee all those possible combinations is mind boggling.
All chess professionals can foresee all those possible combinations, because if they couldn't, they wouldn't be chess professionals.
Fischer also played one of the greatest attacking tactical moves ever against Benko, 19. Rf6 in another game.
Computers find half second 19:Rook f6! Fischer vs Benko! Morphy Tal Alekhine Kasparov had More beautiful games than Fischer! And these games computers tough longer than Fischer moves!
Your commentary illuminates. I see things I otherwise would not have. This is the GREAT Bobby Fischer whose brilliant, exciting play put chess on the front page. Great study!
Enjoying the Fischer games. Thanks!
Relentless attack from Fischer 😮. Thank you for sharing this beautiful game with us
Amazed I could follow most of these lines. Nice job explaining 👍
Great analysis - thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the game and extra lines CD! Very fun
Your teaching style is superb.
Awesome and instructive.. beautiful games you show. Thank you! :)
Great job!!
Thank you ♥️ 😊 🙏
Thank you ChessDawg. This is astonishing. Really appreciate your uploads and explanations.
Glorious. I used to play postal chess in the old days and was forever studying my books for an advantage. Happily not against the great Bobby. As you say, Benko did extremely well in the circumstances - some player. Thanks for the wonderful entertainment.
I loved postal chess!! I lived in a rural area where there were no other players. I played in the 77 Golden Knights tourney. It took 7 years to finish but I made it through all 4 rounds of 6 simultaneous games, and ended up in the top 30 or so out of thousands who started.
Certainly was outstanding by both players
This is a really good video and a great analysis. Keep making videos, I really enjoy them and hope to see you get lots of subscribers one day! Underrated channel to be honest.
I enjoy the analysis, especially these great games
Thank you for sharing!
Great presentation!
'that's all she wrote"- Baretta 😂❤
Thanks for not making games we have to watch for an hour
The variations are fantastic and actually worth taking a closer look at. But I know that many people don't have the time or patience these days.
You could create a chess course on this game alone.
Seemed like Benko was oblivious to Fischer setting up the kingside attack for a bit, which he immediately jumped on.
Of all the players (then and now) Fischer is the best!
You went deep on this one
1959 candidates: the first time for Bobby in the candidates. In this candidates cycle, Bobby was still dressed like a boy in jeans and sweaters. By 1960, he started wearing suits.
Bb7 was such a natural move! Develop your pieces!
"Tactics flow from superior position" Fischer.
14:28 ok, but Benko could then play kn to d7 which protects the rook and saves the kn. Now what's the queen going to do? she can't check on f6 because of that kn that just moved into town. if Q to g row, then rook to g8, bish.... etc. no?
Nd7 would be met by R:d7 and game over.
Really enjoyed this one, great game. It seems to me and my untrained eye that Fischer never seems to have enough resources to win, but magically he makes something out of nothing, if that makes any sense.
OUF ! My head spins after watching all those moves !

Stockfischer! 😀
Great stuff.
I love how Chessdawg sells the game prior to his observant commentary.
That was fun to watch
Damn tough day for benko
Amazing game.
Awesome!!
thanks great
The house does not lose.
Masterful as always ChessDawg. Is your memory eidetic?
I had to look that word up, lol. I'm afraid it is not.
Black was practically playing
1 to 2 pieces down...
A rook and a light square bishop.
14:27 I believe knight to d7 survives for black, although that's all it does...survives...barely...haha
yeah it sucks to not be able to defend the king
♔ Fisher did not want to step in the Benko Gambit. This is why e4 move is better when you play with ♔ Benko.
Well, seeing as Bobby pretty much opened with 1.e4 until the 70s, I'm not sure you're correct at all lol
@@Rspknlikeab0ssxd Well, fan fact: The name Benko Gambit also was created in the 70s (after the book written by Benko). It is also named as the Volga Gambit.
My comment was not about e4 od d4 moves. It was a joke.
@@michalziober I knew of there being a Benko Gambit (I think in the Benoni?) but cool info. Sorry for the woosh. Was just defending Bobby 😂
I've been watching chess on different medea platform. There only two chess players that normally amazing me with their attack. Baby Fischer and Garry Kasparov. As for Fischer is slightly better than Garry in such that he was a complete player.
Fischer was 16 or 17 years old.
16
Extraordinary game, and what a player!
By some lucky chance I replayed the game Karpov - Unzicker 1974 today. A totally different kind of game, I didn’t get much about it, and maybe Unzicker didn’t either, he lost after, yes, after, what happened? I wonder what Fischer would have thought about this game, and about this player Karpov. To be honest, I’m not sure Fischer would like to play against this kind of Karpov, playing chess from a different planet.
“Fischer is the greatest genius to descend from the chessic heavens.” -Mikhail Tal
Fischer was afraid of nothing.
@@gooddognigel9992 Well, Fischer didn’t play Karpov, where he could have if he had wanted to. In my opinion, Fischer was afraid of Karpov, which he should: my guess is, Fischer would have lost that match.
@@paulbloemen7256Fischer had nothing else to prove, that’s why he quit. The idea that he was afraid of Karpov is simply absurd
@@banzaiburger Oh, but here you are wrong. Karpov was the upcoming star with a totally different style, the talk of the chess town, all the more because Fischer didn’t play at all. Of course, Fischer, as the current world champion, had to prove he could beat Karpov. He just chickened out with quite irrelevant arguments.
@@paulbloemen7256Bobby argued his whole life with tournament organizers and officials, and would withdraw when his conditions were not met. As the well-deserved champion of the world, I think it's especially fair to hear out his demands. He wanted the match to be like the first world chess championship- Steinitz Zukertort. So, he wanted it to be first to 10 wins, draws not counting. The original match had a stipulation that a 9-9 score would be a draw. Fischer wanted the prize money to be split at a 9-9 score, but he'd retain his title. To me, that seems somewhat like a fair way to treat the situation. For Bobby was already world champion, Karpov not so. Neither were Steinitz and Zukertort before that match, so neither had claim to have or retain the crown at 9-9. Since Fischer was already world champ, I don't see it as crazy to request he remain champ at such a score.
As for if Bobby was afraid of Karpov, the truth is we'll probably never know. Bobby's psychology was unreal, he could have had no worries at all, or been paranoid beyond believe he'd lose. But the fact is that Karpov was still developing, and despite his strength, I think it's highly unlikely young Karpov could have enough positional ability to beat against Bobby, who was just as positionally strong as Karpov, and probably stronger in most other senses then
Really enjoy your stuff but for a beginner you move awfully fast. Hard to keep up. Just saying…..😊
You click on legendary Fisher's game and then u get that "Chess Dawg" "if's" for 10 f***ing minutes ... why ? just show us the game and then show us your opinion ....
