@@ovs4744 I know Mr Fischer was a bit of a crazy, but my point is that he channeled it into playing chess very well rather than doing heinous crimes as many other crazies do
In Fischer's era, chess engine already existed. It was the whole Soviet team. They all have the records, the opening theories, worked as one to solve a single problem, worked as one to support their dog. But Fischer only had a small circle. He worked mostly by himself. That's the terrifying part of his dominance.
It was his sheer determination to be the best. The sovjets had become a llittle lazy after winning it all following ww2. Unfortunately, he did not show up to verify his domination against Karpov later.
I personally think Bobby Fischer is the greatest of all time. All the odds were stacked against him. All the Soviets were receiving steady paychecks for playing chess. The Soviet top GMs were colluding. The whole soviet machine was behind their top players. Entire team of GMs decyphering Fischer's every game during his career. And I'm sure this all is just the tip of the iceberg. Fischer didn't have a team. He didn't get paychecks from government. Just he alone. Why didn't he defend his title? Because the rules were stacked against him. He had a very simple request: if there is a draw during title defense, the title should stay with the champion. For example in MMA - Valentina Shevchenko just had a draw against Grasso. Grasso is the current champion. Because the fight was a draw, Grasso kept her title. What Bobby requested was only fair. But it was not granted. So he refused to defend.
@@fgs_Sverige I forgot to mention what the actual rules were. The rules were, that if the matches were a draw, then the challenger would get the title - giving the challenger the advantage of being able to play for a draw. Of course the modern system of tiebreak matches is probably the most fair for all parties. And I'm sure that if the Russians (or whoever was behind the system) offered Fischer the modern system as a compromise, he would have agreed.
I don't think anybody has ever dominated any international competition the same way that Fischer dominated in chess during his era. An absolute madlad, that one.
@@yayuuuhhhH I disagree that Kasparov was more Dominant (Although he was a Better Player overall) and Morphy was before the international chess scene really took off. Definitely a genius but not really an international player in the same sense as we think of it today.
Bobby was literal definition of chess cold war against entire Soviet union at those times and guess what, he sank all their nuclear carrying submarines
That wouldn't help me. I love the game but a moderately decent child can beat me. Being that bad lost any pleasure derived from the game. A computer of the lowest setting can beat me in a short while.
@@dj3114 i have like 1000 hours in go and i still love it even though some 8 year old kids can beat me, and the youngest pro is like 10, enjoyment should come from yourself and not something external like winning or rankings
Having my ego upped has helped me jump 450+ ratings in just a month. When I believe that the opponent could be better than me, I don't know why but my chances of being defeated increases many folds. I have realised that a little bit ego is good, not only in chess but in life too.
“The greatest pleasure when you break his ego,” sounds very sadistic/sociopathic to me. I don’t believe one can confine that perceived “ joy” to chess. That is what truly makes this statement frightening.
Have you ever been around chess players? Let me put it like this. The majority of them have demon desires but lack the physicality needed to be considered tough. If they were 6ft 3 and 260lbs, most of them would be in prison. Look at Niemann. His face would turn milk sour. Look how they all brag about dominating, breaking egos, controlling another's mind. There are some true nutjobs around chess.
Even as a person who never lived in America, seeing how the USA treats its geniuses is extremely concerning, saddening, and infuriating .. what happened to him is the same pattern that happened to the NUCLEAR BOY SCOUT, and other superbly great people..
According to fide he would get trampled. He wouldn't even be the best American player, let alone the nest in the world. The sport has advanced inmensely.
@@No-ik5nj I can only speculate, but his claim to greatness is that he towered over his closest competitor (Boris Spazky) with à bigger advantage than any previous world champion and that he was the first USA born chess world champion at a time when the Soviets were the undesputed best in the world.
what if you're playing someone who just loves the game for its poetry, someone who hasn't connected his self worth to his elo? How does bobby handle an opponent who genuinely congratulates him after a win and wants to talk variations like a friend? does he just lose his mind if faced with such a person? i guess yeah
@@Anklespank I never inferred that he uses this as his strategy to any degree. But If he does take notice of this change in his opponents, then he does believe that it exists.🙄 I guess we can watch exactly how he said it, for added context. but again, I'm not even taking that into consideration...
@@abhishekjain3148 the egos of top players only get broken when they realize they been defeated by a better player. Thats the only way to "break the ego" of high level players
@@Anklespank What ego? If Bobby doesn't believe in Psychology, that's a made-up word. If Bobby just plays 'Good moves' as he said in his quote, that should be all he sees. This only stands if you take his words literally, which makes it funnier, which was my only purpose here, 6 people found it funny. Sure, if we look into the moment he says it, his tone and context would clear this up, but it would probably not be much fun in this way. sorry about the long read... Before you read next, I'm in no way a feminist, of any version or kind, I stay away from that thing... In another clip of Fischer, I think he was in his 20s,[maybe even less than 20] he was playing down women, not only in chess but also in most fields, and that they should be in the house kitchen etc. which would be acceptable In the media at the time. But in another interview, which i think was from his 30s maybe, he was supporting women in chess like "Yeah, I always believed in them, I always welcome a game with women, I just don't get the chance to play as much" Something along these lines. I believe these things he says, these quotes, are just words that bring praise and are apt for the time period. He's charismatic, to say the least, and his words are deep in some sense, but the person himself? or at least the person he used to be at the time he said them? I don't believe so. But again all this only stands if we knew the person at the time. Maybe he came across a few female players at the bar and library who impressed him and changed his opinion.
He's correct, the greatest pleasure is in breaking your opponent's ego. I was playing a tournament in my College and I was competing for 2nd position, I was just sitting on my chair and waiting for my opponent when he came looking at me and laughing with his friends about me. He told me "sorry bro for defeating you" and laughed at me before even starting the game and I was just furious that he is underestimating me but then I mated him in 13 moves..... he's face🤌🤌it was satisfying to see his ego shatter into a million pieces and his face turning sad because of a sudden checkmate....
