      Cleverconure There is nothing brave/great in playing a match with anybody if you are only playing, knowing you have no chance. What I consider bravery is, when Magnus when he was 13 years of age, played Kasparov! Thats called bravery. Not random junk below 2500 to challenge one of the greatest players!

      Still easy when you get the hang of it, because it all does boil down to how the peices move. The trick is figuring out all the possible moves for all the peices on the board. The further in advance that you can predict the moves the more success you have. My friends would try to out-think me, three moves in advance. I was out-predicting them 14 moves in advance - for every peice on the board.

    Bobby Fisher was the best player in the United States at the age of 14. One year later, he became the youngest player to reach Grand Master status. When he was 20 years old, Mr Fisher won the 63/64 US championship with 11 wins, in 11 games. No draws like today’s players. Not even the great genius of Magnus can claim such brilliance. In my opinion, he is the GOAT.

    Actually, the name of this trap would be Bastrikov, Because , this game had been played between Bastrikov - Shamkovich in Sochi 1958. And the game had been published in the chess magazin ' Shakhmaty v CCCP' , approximately six month ago of the game Fischer - Reshevsky . Of course Fischer read it (as you explain) but Reshevsky didn't.

    You know, and I think that I can speak for everyone, Bobby "Boom Boom" Fischer had several "Trap" moves, "Meanie Queenie," "Rook the Crook," "Punt the Pawn," "Nighty Knight," and "Boot the Bishop" just to name a few. It's generally considered that like Spassky, Bobby had a winning strategy after seeing the opponents 3rd or 4th move. Also, in private, Bobby liked to call Spassky "Spaz" due to his unusually strong BO.

    As a casual player back in the early 80's, I had an electronic chessboard called "Excalibur Chess", which had 5 skill levels to play against. I discovered that against up to Level 3, I could use a Bishop to capture a pawn on F7 before Black had Castled, and force the King to capture the Bishop, which then began an inevitable walk to its doom. Reshevsky should have studied Level 4. Nice Video!

    And after the match reporters were interviewing both.
    A reporter asked Capablanca how many moves ahead he was able to plan
    Capablanca responded with some extraordinary number that greatly
    impressed the writers.
    The writers then asked Reshevsky the same question, and he said "one, the best one"

I believe agadmator is well on his way to RUclips Video Title Grandmaster.

    The game was 42 moves long. I suppose Reshevsky didn`t want to resign quickly because of `pride issues`. Maybe he doubted Bobby`s conversion skills.

      @agadmator  7 лет назад +59

      Srbija Tim Chess I was doing the video from memory and I thought he resigned faster, but yes, it was 42 moves. I still think it was due to his pride, he played Bobby before and knew that he would surely convert this. But ok, who knows. Odličan mi je vaš kanal btw :)

    That's why a solid study of strategy and tactics is essential. The pin is just about the most basic tactic in chess and even a battle tested veteran was hit by it.

    2:57 -- Does "Bobby's Trap" actually work for if Black takes the bishop? (Clearly he's lost, as we see in the game, if he tries to save the knight on f6.) ...but if Nxb6, exf6, Nxa1, fxg7, Nxc2+, Qxc2, Kxg7, then Black has captured a bishop, a rook, and two pawns (10 points in material) and created a passed d-pawn while losing two knights and a bishop (9 points worth of pieces). The engine doesn't like Black's position, initially granting over +2 to White, but that +2 does not climb as the engine crunches ro greater depth -- indicating that Black can hold to a draw with good play.

    • @angelmendez-rivera351
      @angelmendez-rivera351 4 года назад

      Bobby played many games that demonstrated why taking the Bishop is a bad idea.

    It's worth noting that Reshevsky had in his childhood also been a chess prodigy. Fischer was in this respect the inheritor of Reshevsky's mantle, but he took it all the way to the top.

    • @hyzercreek
      @hyzercreek Год назад +1

      Fischer was 100 times better than Reshevsky. Sam was US champion several times on and off during the 30s and 40s, then Fischer won it 8 times in a row and stopped, and then Sam started winning it again on and off for decades. But in the 8 times that Fischer entered it, Reshevshy didn't have a snowman's chance in Brazil.

    • @Ensign_Cthulhu
