it's wholesome how he's the one that laughs the most out of his own jokes
😂 The Jackie Martling of chess
@@pepperwestwood wtf i didn't know that guy but checked and yeah he laughs at his jokes the same ;D
It’s easy to forget that Yasser was a super GM. Top 10 at his peak
Yasser was never a super GM, but yeah he's good
@@GEM4sta if you only consider 2700+ GMs super GMs then yeah, by definition he was not. The avarage elo however always rises due to a mathematical thing, just google it if you don t believe me. Now if we reconsider that he was 10th in his time…
@@Sharkmoves so should I consider 2450 IMs from his time GM instead because the general playing strength was lower?
Super GM isn't top 10. If you want to say he's top 10 then you say he was top 10. Super GM is 2700, there are plenty of them that aren't top 10.
@@GEM4sta By that definition Boris Spassky, Vasily Smyslov, Tigran Petrosian, Viktor Korchnoi and Paul Keres are not Super GMs. I doubt the Super GMs today can beat these guys in their prime. Don’t make it sound that there is no elo inflation. Yes, IMs then can be considered GM strength if the number of tournaments today are the same as their time. Easy elo.
@@GEM4sta his peak was 2769
There was a point in time where Yasser was one of THE best chess players in the entire world.
Yasser cracks me up everytime. Both stories and storytelling are awesome!
My favorite bit of info about Yasser is that despite seeming like the nicest and most soft-spoken guy in the world, he had a 4-0 lifetime record against Tal. Tal was of course a crazy killer and had a winning record against Bobby Fischer.
Damn, I knew Yasser was a top 10 player at his peak but I never knew he had a positive score against one of the greatest World champs let alone a perfect undefeated plus score
Yeah but the Tal of 1980 wasn't the great Tal. that we know.
@@vdre6741 His peak rating was literally in 1980, lol. He was World #2.
@@vdre6741 that is about as ignorant a comment as you could have made. Tal was far stronger in the 1980s and had one of the longest undefeated streaks in history then (not broken until ding liren and then magnus in only the last few years).
@@jedinxf7 My bad. I misunderstood. I thought his health problem came back at this period ans affect his results. It's look like I misunderstood or I was thinking about another period of his life.
And I haven't yet read this part of the book. I an actually in 1965 lol
If Bob Ross ever dissed a friend.
That’s actually funny😂
Bob Ross actually completely stole his friend's brand and company, so pretty ironic comment really
@@GEM4sta I had not heard that. I'll have to look into it, thanks :)
This has got to be in the top 5 best Yasser story's I have heard.
Gotta love yassir
Yaser and Aman, two awesome dudes. Love it!
Love the Karpov story and Yasser's storytelling, but I'm low-key impressed with Aman's endgame. Yeah, okay, it is a fairly simple pawn endgame where he draws as the black King can't infiltrate, but look how calm Aman is with seconds left on his clock. I know he is a GM, but if I am that low on time (drawn position or not), I lose my marbles, hang all my pieces and then hang mate in 1 xD
he also plays blitz chess like 6 hrs a day lol
wtf is lowkey? use insignificant or not a big deal instead.
Yasser is a legend! what a great personality
That was savage... Hahaha Yasser just dropped the 🎤 on Karpov
yasser was far stronger than what we imagine him to be
The best part is that Karpov knew he was one of the ones he beat :P
Why do you think he would know that? I kinda doubt he did
Yasser's laugh just brightens up everyone's day 🤣😂
That's hilarious. YS has got a terrific sense of humor!
Great story, beautifully recounted. Yasser is gold.
Took me a while to realise he referred to Anatoly as Talia not a girl lol
Russians shorten the name Anatoly as Tolia, Tolik, Tolyan, etc.
@@pedestrian2530 thanks, didn’t know that
obviously karpov will have a low win streak, he's a no risk type player and doesnt always try to win, so in a tournament or match if he needs a draw to win, he will draw. Anyways the real achievement is to have a long streak of super tournament wins. Which Kasparov,Karpov have not bobby
true, chess is like war. You don't need to win every battle to win the war.
P.S. Fischer didn't want to face Karpov despite the conditions being similar to the modern ones - first to X points wins. If all games drawn, the champion stays the same.
As much as I admire Fischer's games and creativity, he seems to be too much of a diva. But maybe I lack some insight.
@@Pasharamus I would describe Fischer as more of an eccentric and definitely a little crazy.
@@OzarksCreekandTimber Fischer is pretty insane. Also a massive mysogynist and somewhat racist.
Pavel, the insight you lack is that Fischer had to face all of the USSR virtually alone. Soviets were huge cheats. As to the rest of the commenters I don't think Fischer was crazy, just more insightful and honest than most.
Lighten up man, it was a funny story
I swear his laugh is more contagious than Covid
Yasser has the best stories xD
Ahah this is hilarious
Hilarious story
Yasser has a very wholesome laugh
Yasser won the first Tata Steel tournament.
GM Yasser
Karpov: hUh.
Great story!
One of my favorite GMs gets his ass kicked twice by Yasser, hilarious!
Karpov dominated world chess for a decade. Neither Fischer nor Seirawan came close to that.
who?
Bing Bang Boom
Bwahaha! Fucking Yasser is a national treasure.
Based on what I can find on chessgames (and I may be mistaken), it looks like Yasser is misremembering slightly and instead scored 7.5/8 in eight games with a draw in the middle? I'm getting four wins at the end of Phillips & Drew Kings in London followed by a draw and three wins at the Toluca Interzonal. His wins are nothing to sneeze at, though, comparable to Karpov's six at Linares 1994: Yasser got Ljubojevic, Karpov, Nunn, Miles, Kouatly, Portisch, and Adorjan, conceding a draw to Ivanov.
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaha.
Yasser has higher FIDE rating than Eric Hansen wtf ?
Yasser was a top 10 player a few times during late 80's to early 90's. Nowadays he's retired, he hasnt played a classical tournament game in a decade, so Eric is currently a lot stronger. But prime Yasser would be a favorite against Eric.
@@juyifan7933 In wikipedia it says: FIDE rating: 2620 (February 2022)
@@JICM25 Sure, thats his rating. But it is completely dated since it is based on games played over a decade ago. He hasnt played a tournament in quite a while;
Not the same quite… in Karpovs day And prime i believe being a Gm meant you were top 50… in other words the only way to reach the 2500 norm was by having top 50 strength… so yes Karpovs is more impressive imo
Please some respect for Karpov - The eternal XII-th World Chess Champion
Blablabla..... relax and enjoy the funny story.
