"Are you maybe interested in a pawn" Antonio's commentary is always 10/10, no matter how many times he uses this phrase it always makes me giggle like a high school girl
@@fernandovargasmejia8512 Sorry to break it down to you like this but you can't "grow balls". Balls are formed in a fetus at around week 28 of the ontogenetic development, if they don't descend from the inguinal canal by then, give or take 1 week, you're in trouble (unless you're a woman)
Dang, you beat me to it by 3 hours. And you delivered the message better than I would have. However I would have also added that the term "Scandinavian Defence" was also not valid for another 20 years. @1:25 @0:58
I was born in 1966. Back then I still had to buy all the books. This little important booklet with this match was required reading. How nice that we have the opportunity to watch this match online today - with funny comments too. My small library with around 800 books is worth at least 300 years of Internet Flat Rates. Hopefully all young chess players will appreciate the value of this online analysis. Thank you very much Agadmator i pozdrav iz crne gore, komso.
Morhpy(ous) successfully dodging bullets by Mr. Anderssen... seems like they are still in the training phase... But not really - this is already the real deal!
I'd think Morphy had the chess mind for analyzing these games, and he'd be thinking about them all the time, day and night, the moves made and the variations.
Gotta remember too that these are the days before engines, and even more so the days before FIDE. Nobody could *really* study their opponents before playing them. So the proteges like Morphy held an even greater advantage, because of their speed at learning.
Thank you so much for playing this game all the way out until the end. Some of us newbies can't see the full checkmating process play out in our heads. Great to see it on the board!
Any proper afterlife should have a Bar&Library type place where the souls of chess players congregate to play some truly epic games. Sort of like Valhalla but with more thoughtful consideration and less shouting. Could still have quaffing of ale, but only in the blitz sections.
I absolutely find it amazing the way he connects the titles of the videos with some of the great dialogues from cinema. This one from The Matrix Trilogy is Awesome!!!🙌🏻
Agad I'm not sure if you read comments but I wanted to say that your videos are a godsend. I appreciate your efforts and I know millions do too. You are a great guy, and I really mean that. Thank you.
few months back, I could list players such as Karpov, Kasporov, Anand, Carlsen and few others. Now, we have contemporary, modern, and budding players. Charles Morphy, Bobby Fisher, Tal, Spassky, Botvanik, recent players like Dudo, Anish Giri, Ding Liren, Ramesh Babu Parabhunananda, queen sacrifice king(!) Adhiban Bhaskaran, and few more. Same goes to opening where I had NIL earlier and can list few like queens gambit, four knights variation, ruy lopez, kings indian and others. It is because of ONE person Agad. Thank you man.
What an amazing match this is and what a great game, as good as anything played today. Hard to believe this occurred in the mid 19th century. Wonderful presentation, as always.
At least Anderssen was an honourable gentleman, unlike some other opponents who Morphy may or may not have played. For example, Staunton went down in history as a real coward.
On Morphy doing the same thing every time (first losing, then winning in style) I once read in an old chess book that back then it was considered "polite" not to go all out on your first game. Not sure how much of that is true, however.
it depends on your opponent. Morphy knew how strong anderssen was and it would've been disrespectful to throw the game as anderssen would know what morphy did
You mean the drawn game?Or the most complicated game ever where tal crushed koblents..if you're meaning that then type student surpasses the teacher" on agadmator's channel..
It’s like Morphy lets them win the first game or two, allows them to feel confident about themselves, and then takes their soul away when he knows it’ll hurt most.
What a brilliant positional player Morphy was? There were those crazy sacrifices driven games but mostly his positional game set him apart from Anderson who was a brilliant attacker as well. Easily the greatest series ever.
1:11 If white defends the pawn with c4, I like to play e6, then usually you get dxe6, Bxe6, the Icelandic gambit. Black is a little better here I believe, it's hard to play against.
Don't underestimate 3.c4 in the Nf6 line of the Scandinavian. I used to use it to transpose to the Panon-Bottvinnik until people started playing e6 (Icelandic Gambit) instead of c6. It's pretty interesting stuff.
#suggestion You could make some shorter sagas, like covering specific tournaments and specific matches, the way you did with Botvinnik x Tal. This way we can a greater variety of content without spending all the games from an specific player. We fans really enjoy your historical coverage, don't change it!
An excellent presentation. In an era when men needed to use their imagination, not just memorize lines. I see that weakness in a few the top Grandmasters today.
Agad has perfected the art of titling his videos.
And has perfected the art of uploading at the right time whenever im looking for a video to watch 😂
And has perfected the art of perfecting art.
He's invincible
@@Iksvomid Agad is an excellent creator of videos
titling is now fully operational
Since Anderssen lost the last game he's trying to play more cautious
Sacrifices a piece

Grow some balls

It’s a pawn knock-off. Really suspect.

@@Tucnak2o0 damn I don't see him recovering from that.
"This is the Marshall variation" ... that's how great Frank Marshall was, they named variations after him 20 years before he was born!
Dang, you beat me to it by 3 hours. And you delivered the message better than I would have. However I would have also added that the term "Scandinavian Defence" was also not valid for another 20 years. @1:25 @0:58
I also noticed the same thing about Marshall, but missed the Scandinavian. :)

Yes another classic game to show my friends at the library and bar!
A cultured man.
What’s a library.
Dont forget to pin it on the fridge.
@@niagra898 agad often says "show to your friends at the bar and the library"..that's what he means by library
@@niagra898 Used to be a place where books were kept and could be barrowed.
3:36 Some of the most fear-inspiring words in Chess: "Morphy's pieces are now fully developed..."
Morphy is now fully operational 💀
Morphy truly was ahead of his time. He always switched on his chess engine after the first two games.
Morhpy(ous) successfully dodging bullets by Mr. Anderssen... seems like they are still in the training phase... But not really - this is already the real deal!
You think that's air you're breathing now?
@@davegrenier1160 You have to understand, most people are not ready to be checkmated... 🙃
Wow, what a game! Andersen certainly created some pressure.
“Morphy must play this very precisely; and he does.”
Random GM: "Nobody can defeat Adolf Anderssen"
Paul Morphy: "Fine, I'll do it myself"
Pretty sure that's what ben finegold said
I thought Morphy would have said"Hold my beer"
@@joepoppy3264 *Hold my pieces
@@talphazero1036 Yup!😁
Paul Morphy was so far ahead of his time!
Morphy seemed to have the knack for figuring out his opponents. His games get stronger the more times he plays a person.
He is like an anime protagonist!
That’s exactly what I noticed, first game or two he plays not so great then he turns it on full force and dominates their soul
He’s like a deep learning AI.
I'd think Morphy had the chess mind for analyzing these games, and he'd be thinking about them all the time, day and night, the moves made and the variations.

Löwenthal: What’s his power level?
Anderssen: it’s over 9000!
OK Vegeta
Hello everyone. I have just completed the Bobby Fischer Story and I'm catching up as fast as I can on the good stuff - The Morphy Saga.
Don't miss the Capablanca saga. It will improve your opening skills immensely!
Agad, your titles are super GM levels of awesome! I belly laughed for like a minute straight when I saw this!
Thank you! :)
In the afterlife, both legends, "waiting for this analysis, at last got it!!!"

Your each video is an unique piece of art
the first two games was just morphy testing and calibrating how much of his power he should unseal for anderssen
He was also ill at the time, but he toughed it out.
Loving the consistency. Take care Mr agad
I have to say I missed the morphy saga. It could really just be any saga, not just the game but the actual storys and anekdotes, keep it up man
I absolutely find it amazing the way he connects the titles of the videos with some of the great dialogues from cinema.
This one from The Matrix Trilogy is Awesome!!!🙌🏻
NGL, the best thumbnail in this channel after those super cool 2017 thumbnails in Anderssen games
Agad I'm not sure if you read comments but I wanted to say that your videos are a godsend. I appreciate your efforts and I know millions do too. You are a great guy, and I really mean that. Thank you.
Yes more Matrix references! Maybe a future thumbnail show that young boy w/morphy head bending the spoon? ...there is no spoon...
You make chess an interesting game. You are always full of energy and never boring. Thanks a lot.

Morphy was for his time really something... Nice!

"Agadmator's Titles are invincible"
- Everyone
1:04 Levy: "And obviously Anderssen has the Gotham d4 Dynamite Course "
Everyone gansta untill agad comes up with a morphy game!
But then Mr. Smith HIMSELF gets rekt by a train moments after this saying. LOL :D
I wish these two could have their own saga against each other they’re so cool
Excellent video as always.
Thank you again perfect timing I was just looking for a new video 😁
This is my Fav game from Morphy yet! He was relentless with his D and his Offense! That is definitely, "The good stuff!"
I agree,Morphy has a nice relentless D
Your room’s lookin so cwl I’m sure you’ve filled it with more stuff as usual medo hasn’t noticed
At least Anderssen was an honourable gentleman, unlike some other opponents who Morphy may or may not have played. For example, Staunton went down in history as a real coward.
One of my favorite movie quotes.
On Morphy doing the same thing every time (first losing, then winning in style) I once read in an old chess book that back then it was considered "polite" not to go all out on your first game. Not sure how much of that is true, however.
I think Morphy was going all out the first game in this one. I think the illness brought his game down just enough for Andersen to take over.
@@danielquigley2695 Sounds quite reasonable :)
Yeah, Morphy wasn't pulling his punches in game 1. Anderssen simply played flawlessly against the risky Evans Gambit and slowly ground Morphy down.
Morphy was sick and drained by leeches, his doctor was present during the first 2 games
it depends on your opponent. Morphy knew how strong anderssen was and it would've been disrespectful to throw the game as anderssen would know what morphy did
#Suggestion
Emanuel Lasker vs Edward Lasker
New York Tournament RD 6 (Mar-23-1924)
Knight draws against Rook and Pawn
Jajaja wenisimo el título del vídeo ! Grande agad.
Man, thanks for the good video titling
Yes, yes, yes....such a great matchup!
I would like to suggest the game between Mikhail tal and Alexander Koblents 1961 in Riga, Tal with the white pieces. Tal sacrificed queen #Suggestion
You mean the drawn game?Or the most complicated game ever where tal crushed koblents..if you're meaning that then type student surpasses the teacher" on agadmator's channel..
this is different.
Very entertaining, thanks so much.
Smith also played "captures, captures" in Matrix 🤭
This position reaches almost everytime in my games😂
It’s like Morphy lets them win the first game or two, allows them to feel confident about themselves, and then takes their soul away when he knows it’ll hurt most.
Nah that doesn't sound like Morphy.
Morphy was not invicible, the best players of those times should have a couple of wins against him
I just now got used to Agad’s switch away from his living room studio and the dog on the couch.
the dog is not using his or her bed
I was actually watching a clip of this scene when I got the notification that Mr. Anderssen was hearing the sound of inevitability.
What a brilliant positional player Morphy was? There were those crazy sacrifices driven games but mostly his positional game set him apart from Anderson who was a brilliant attacker as well. Easily the greatest series ever.
First time I'm coming early. And first time I'm finding the move on 'pause the video' moment without much difficulty.
the title will make me go back and watch the movies
Very nice game. Sir your explanation very good.thanks for vedeo
This is the better than the best title I could imagine.
1:11 If white defends the pawn with c4, I like to play e6, then usually you get dxe6, Bxe6, the Icelandic gambit. Black is a little better here I believe, it's hard to play against.
It was a match between 2 TITANS of Chess!
thank you paul morphy, andersen and of course agad
Morphy played marshall variation before Marshall was born. Cool!
Don't underestimate 3.c4 in the Nf6 line of the Scandinavian. I used to use it to transpose to the Panon-Bottvinnik until people started playing e6 (Icelandic Gambit) instead of c6. It's pretty interesting stuff.
This truly is the good stuff
Why antonio tell us to pause the video for about ten seconds but the "pause the video" period is eight minutes doesn't make sense right
Thumbnail is lit tbh
I just came here to hear Agad say “not very pleasant” and “bust open the position”
What’s the E mean on the robot?
I’m so happy with this title !!
Now I am the master of positional play.😄😄
Congratulations. You are an excellent creator of video titles 🤣
Impressive, AA makes Morphy plays on defense mode.

Don't care about the game. Literally here for the click bait. 🤣
Gotta love Matrix ❤️
Once again,, whats the meaning of the E in rhe robot?
@agadmator???
Exhibition. No time control.
Title is gold
"Sorry about that." - Sun Tzu
Compared to modern games, black played in a sort of "well I give you pieces, let's see if I get compensation later".
Title on the next video:
Morphy "Omae wa mo shindeiru"
Anderssen "Nani?!"

You fooled the algorithm, sir.
Expected a boss fight in the subway 🤔
At 7:27 why not rook to f4 ?
Cool match, but Morphy marches on !!
Adolf Anderssen looks like 70 in this picture when he was actually 40 lol
That was a very nice endgame
The title is awesome
best chess channel ever
A knight is a knight, my kingdom for a horse!
Do you think he loses on purpose when facing new opponents to test their strength?
An excellent presentation. In an era when men needed to use their imagination, not just memorize lines. I see that weakness in a few the top Grandmasters today.
what are you even saying, no one can reach GM by "memorize lines" lol, they are all using their imagination
@@callmezagh3884 are you a Grandmaster?
@@kirkmason7079 ofc i'm a GM, this is all we do after we're done memorizing lines, we debate idiots on the internet
@@callmezagh3884 you’re no Grandmaster
#suggestion Paul Morphy- Alonzo Morphy New Orleans 1849, just a short and sweet Evans Gambit victory
Love these games
8:13 wouldn't be bxf5 there be even better as you now win a pawn + trade on your own terms??
I think, it's just me but the thumbnails are too perfect..
Its not fun when morphy is OP. Winning every game
Wonderful saga
Mr. Andressen just swallowed the blue pill.
can you show st louis chess club tourney matches after this series? like hikaru against svidler was an awesome game
Possibly the two best chessmen ever.
