Now I understand how Bobby Fischer played so well in his career. Not many people know this but he had an older brother who helped him throughout his chess journey. His name was Stock Fischer.
Hahahaha
Omg 😭 😂
good pun
😄
I see this is some kind of pun but I don’t get it.. What is a “stock fisher” ? 🤔
Bobby the entire game: "I dare you to take it"
this comment needs more likes
haha he must've been like "I double you mother******"
This is the funniest comment ever

"Bringing queen out and using it the entire game is not advisable"
Every god damn opponent I played:
"Allow us to introduce ourselves"
'Please allow ME to introduce myself.
I’ve been around for a long, long year'
Yow….yow….yow
Huh, huh, huh
especially with gay openings like the wayward ewwww
@@chinmayanaik1380 I can't with your reply😂
seriously? gay opening😭😭
Correct. If you bring Queen out, It would get the required support.
Nelson..
11:30 This ending would've been too beautiful to happen, but props to Byrne as well for not falling the traps set by all those absolutely unreal moves. You need to be 2 players to make an absolutely iconic and memorable game of chess, and they both delivered.
Great point. I was also amazed that Byrne saw all those traps
absolutely. props to byrne entirely
Byrne said that he let Bobby mate him because he wanted to see the masterpiece complete
Truth
What an honourable player
@@carlneoh5843 Lol at first glance I read "What a horrible player".
Nice I appreciate these kinda stuffs
Then he should have took that bishop
Donald Byrne it is said let the game go on to let young bobby have his glory. The fame of this game goes partially to him for the sportsmanship
Also, it must be amazing to lose like that to a 13 year old and he must have known he was part of some historic moment.
Byrne said he could have resigned the moment the queen sacrifice was played, but he wanted the young bobby to finish the game with a beautiful checkmate
@@verasinha7863 Ok did he think the 13 year old would make a mistake and he'll beat him. I'd say he thought Bobby would miss play before he got to the mate. You don't want to lose. You don't want to lose to a so called child. Of course no one knew this was The Bobby Fischer at 13 who'd becoming probably the great chess player in history. If Bobby wasn't there were few in front of him. When you ask all the chess masters of today if they could play anyone in chess history. Who would it be. Hands down most say Bobby Fischer. He was a master at getting you to move the pieces he wanted you to move. If Fischer moved a piece and it looked like he was giving it to you and you took it you probably lost. Fischer gave pieces for a reason. He wanted you take that seemly blunder. Fischer did make mistakes. But they were few a far between. Between 1967-1972 I don't think anyone ever played better chess. He crushed everyone. He didn't just win. He crushed people. Winning 20 games in a row against GMs. I don't care who your playing. If you win 20 in a row against the people Bobby played it was impossible yet he did it. They should have been able to play to a draw somewhere along the line.
@@larrylindgren9484 he said it himself that he wants the masterpiece completed
What an absolute masterstroke of a game. Seeing a windmill get executed at this high of a level is a joy and a treat in addition to a very early queen sacrifice that pays off. Bobby truly was a wizard at finding all kinds of creative ways to set up forced mates.
ye i dont see windmills often but when i do they are brutal
GLO GLOYPER
Spic fuentes will never be white to me

I was cheering & clapping with the “smothered mate” option you showed!! I love all your explanations, so much energy, excitement for this cerebral game.
yes!

Levy is a content MACHINE
@Automne 123456789 stonks fish
Amen
I was like "does this guy even rest?" now I'm used to this
I am enjoying the content, but the frequent uploads are not good for his channel because of inflation. If he would make a video like twice or 3 times a week, the viewers would have more time to watch each video and would expect the next video more. Now you can see, each video of him is getting less and less views. :(
@@idomerimovich9592 but if he makes 2 videos that get 1.2x the viewership than if he were to make 1 video for example, would that be better or worse?
When Levy doesn’t tell you you’re worth more than a queen 😢
Same
Last video I watched he told me I was worth less than a knight. It made me smile.
Feels bad man
hey man . ur worth more than a queen
Time to unsubscribe.
Bobby Fischer makes chess look so beautiful.
Fischer's favourite player was Paul Morphy. Fischer described him as the most accurate player who ever lived. Morphy also made chess look ridiculously easy, sacrificing pieces and pawns because he could see the mate at the end of it all.
Watching this in 2024 .
What’s worth more than a rook? A king. And that King is IM Levy Rozman
yOuR nOt lEvY rOzmAn!
Lmao
@@Iwilleaturbabieslad brrrrrruuuuh 😂
@@isaiahmonteleone I bet someone will say that
@@Iwilleaturbabieslad yeah lol
One of Byrne's chess students related later why he played on:
"First of all, you have to remember that in 1956 no one knew that Bobby Fischer was going to become Bobby Fischer! He was just a very promising 13-year-old kid who played a great game against me. When it got to the position where I was lost, I asked some of the other competitors if it might be a nice thing to let the kid mate me, as a kind of tribute to the fine game he played. They said, 'Sure, why not?' and so I did."
- Tim Krabbé, Open Chess Diary (quoting Don Heisman)
in that case Byrne would be a great teacher.
So much respect.
"lol, loser" - Fischer, probably
Ahh...this is so cool...Amsterdamer Tim Krabbé is also an extremely prolific cyclist and has written a favourite cycling classic called De Renner (The Rider). A few years ago I went on a couple of big group rides that he also attended. Really enjoy seeing him quoted here.
True gentleman doesn't exis...
I would've gotten destroyed so bad from the first attack
I totally love your historical matches videos, I always wanted to understand what was going on behind these great old master's games and now I can finally do it. My brother showed me this channel and its great.
Can we take a moment to appreciate how much work Gotham puts in to uploading quality educational chess vids twice a day?
ok
He’s a goat
No
That's his job lol
@Chris Dean do you thank a restaurant worker when they give you your food despite it being their job? Why are famous people special in a way in which they aren't deserving of a thank you? I think the OP was thanking Gotham for his hard work.
Good Game.
Fisher is the human AI, before Ai was available.
👍
Bro human AI is just I 😂
@@alexnica7895 human artificial intelligence, lol
That would be Capablanca, the "chess machine"
aren't all humans artificial intelligence
I’ve been waiting for this vid for so long.!, i saw others explaining this game but did not understand..but know it is clear and I understand why this was such a hit..!
Thank you levy..you the best
I've seen this game analysed before but you brought a new level to it with lots of important lessons. Thanks Levy.
RUclips: How much content would you like to make?
Levy: Yes
much*
Ssssstt nobody saw that ;)
@@maxbischot6958 (edited)
ChYes*
hmmm
As an older guy just getting interested in Chess, you move a bit fast for me but I've found myself going down a rabbit hole of your videos because of your capability for entertainment and being straight forward with what you're talking about. I can always pick up the pieces with a quick google or watch elsewhere, but when it comes to pacing I actually think you're the top notch for a learning player. It doesn't take too long, it's never boring, and it's always a bit of challenge. I guess that makes it fun.
Same
Agreed. Same-same.
Im 21, and I completely agree with you, part of what made chess more interesting to me was listening to him make commentaries about chess game too fast for me to comprehend alone, it makes me feel the marvel of these players more so than just watching the games raw
I agree whole heartedly. I like when he puts the extra excitement/volume, like " HE TAKES QUEEN " !!!
Totally. Its super helpful sometimes to hit the setting button and slow the Playback Speed of the video (or speed a video up if it's too slow
Have seen this game from multiple youtube channels before but honestly, this is the best recap of this marvellous game of the century.
I propose a bigger challenge than analysing Bobby Fischer and Kasparov: a new series of videos where Gotham recaps my games and tries to make sense of my stupid moves
Guess my elo
Mine too. Can be summed up by Levy saying, "I don't know what he was thinking there" about 23 times.
Jeff Zest 1356
And that how Guess the Elo was born
That playlist already exists; it’s called How to Lose at Chess

Levy: what's worth more than a queen?
Me having watched the past recaps: YOU. YOU are worth more than a queen. 😊
Levy: A king!
Me: oh 😔
I also thought I was worth more than a queen. Disappointed 😔
Don't worry guys, were worth more than a chess board.
Lmao
But you are a king
Snowflakes
So many people have analyzed this game for decades. Yet, it never gets old. Thank you.
Your chess commentary is epic and unparalleled! I'm supposed to be finishing my uni assignment! Love it!
"My bishops are laser beams, I mean criss cross apple sauce" Levy Rozman 2021
I looove when Levy says criss cross applesauce 🤩. It takes me back to recess and makes me smile 😊.
this
@@rawdaaljawhary4174 Criss cross applesauce, eenie meenie miney moe, Rick Ross is a boss, grab him by his teeny toe
I need a sound clip of Levy saying "What??" every time I blunder
I love how you put double question marks implying that it is indeed a blunder
Very insightful. My only pro AND CON is you make everything look too easy that I want to go play only to realize I forgot what you said to do in a certain situation and realize I'm not that good but still love learning the game. Love the content man.
I just started playing chess and this is my current cycle xD
"Ooh, beautiful game, makes perfect sense! Let me try!" then I blunder my queen :)
Love the energetic commentary. Hopefully this makes someone fall in love with the beauty of chess.
Best game of the 21st Century: Carlsen vs Nakamura *Double Bongcloud*
Can't argue on that
Double Bongcloud Hotbox Variation
that was indeed - remarkable
Why do I see Hikaru and Magnus dancing
😂👌
When Gotham says what is wearth more than a queen and he didn’t said “you”
💔
👍
"worth
Cringe
When you cant even spell worth
💔
This game is a masterclass of chess. So many lessons to be learned in it. My favorite of Fischer’s games by far.
Omg the commentary is SO instructive! Perfect!!
Young Whippersnapper is definitively what they said in 50s. It was often directed at myself. I took it as a compliment not matter how it was intended
👍
Wow! This game absolutely blew my mind. The whole sequence after Bishop e6, including the threat of smothered mate, is just gorgeous.
Qf1 Rxf1 ne2+ 🤯
That variation was good
Man, I miss this version of Gotham, enthusiastic as can be, explains every move, doesn't talk about Magnus every second video, I hope he notices that his fans liked this version better.
@@art-of2tm I mean, hes more of an asshole now, he thinks that were idiots
Have you seen his WCC recap now?
@@Jade-zm2tg yeah, it's embarrassing
@@EM38101 he doesnt talk about magnus in them and explains every move and i would say he's pretty enthusiastic
@@Jade-zm2tg this comment was made a month ago, he obviously changed, but the wcc reviews are still mid tho
Dude I absolutely love these kinds of recaps. Keep it up!
He sounds like a trumpet when he says 'prepare' at 4:50
how the fuck did you notice this??? you’re completely right but how did this cross your mind
@@tessalexander4569 your comment has killed me 😂😂😂
🎺Brrp 🎺brrp 😂😂 I totally hear it
I cant unhear thisss lmaoo
This is probably the first game of chess I've seen that truly highlights its sheer beauty and complexity. Thank you.
Love these classic game reviews. Please continue them.
Utterly beautiful chess. Bobby Fischer's brilliance takes my breath away
TRUE FACT: It was Agadmator's recap of this game that got interested in chess again! The way Bobby gets his pieces working together still blows my mind every time I watch it. Thanks!
levy puts out videos faster than stockfish can calculate the best move
I love this series. Comparing historical games with what would have been played today. How about covering games at World Championship featuring legends like Bobby, Kasparov and Karpov more often? Thanks Levy!
Thank you for and excellent explanation of a very complex game!
Awesome video well done….always mesmerised by bobby fishcer
I would’ve blundered all of those baits that Byrne didn’t bite on. Crazy that someone can see so much and still get crushed, but Fischer was just on another level.
14:03 yes, the bishop moved, I remind you that black short castled earlier.
Bobby's dark squared bishop actually had moved earlier in the game, but moved back to its original f8 square to block the check from the queen.
Your commentary of this incredible game rules!! Levy, you rock, maaaan.
I’m really enjoying these historical game recaps!
Yeah, interesting to see how chess theory and practice has evolved over time- more please!
Love that you’ve been analyzing historical games like this and the Ed Lasker game! Keep it up please! There are beautiful games from Anderssen, Morphy, Alekhine, Capablanca and so many more
I love your explanations and how natural and easy it is to understand great games - when you explain! - thanks !
Hello Levy! Thank you so much for all these amazing videos!
Could you do an analysis on Fischer's game against Tal from 1961? I do believe it was the first time ever that Fischer managed to beat him.
Once again, all your videos have been most helpful and I have learnt a lot! Thank you!
11:10 The suspense built up was insane.... was a potential ending literally would have been brilliant
Can't wait for the next chess tournament just to once again hear Levy talk about kids eating sand
Great vid Levi. I really like and appreciate how you make your chess analysis and insights accessible to the masses and all done with enthusiasm and charisma. I will point out that late in the game when the black bishop went to c5, on move 35ish, you had forgotten that it had already been fianchettoed early in the game, then had moved back to f8.
Good content. Your analysis is amazing. Thank you 😊
I have to say that I'm really pleased with the recent increase in game analyses, keep up the good work!
Holy shizzle an amazing game, so many crazy moves and traps featured in this game! To imagine that Bobby could play chess at that level at 13 years old is beyond me :o
Although I'm a long-time 'beginner', I really enjoy your breakdowns of the classic games. Thank you!
These are great. More please. Thank you.
This Bobby kid seems pretty good, he should try to become world champion.
His dead bruh
Nahh broooo you are exaggerating a NM title is enough for this kid for defeating an old fart in a fancy way anyone can do that what's so special bout it
How do people still don’t know this joke
@@shaheedlinzag3436 r/whoooosh
or nazi for that matter
Levy is right about the importance of a confidence boost you get when beating a stronger player. I'm currently rated 1400 (long time format) and recently beat a 1850 rated player, actually by far the highest rated player I was ever up against. It really put me in a different state of mind. I'm not scared to play say a 1500 rated player anymore because I know I can beat them. I'm more confident to make bold moves when before I'd try to play it safe.
I somehow predicted the knight sacrifice 2-3 moves earlier
Great analysis. I wish you would analyze the Fischer Spassky games. I really enjoyed you explanations more than other videos I have seen on this game. Thank you
you know who is about to dominate the match when its Fischer's perspective(the main character)
levy recapping classic chess games is the only thing keeping me going
Finally! I can watch your videos, Levy. I become interested in chess lately.
Love the way you explain
7:22. Criss-Cross Apple SAUCE
If this is Bobby at 13 I don’t even want-
?
Yea bye
Wath
Oh wow!! What a fantastic game!! Also the way you described of potential moves is amazing! This is one of my favorite videos!!
Great job on breaking down one of Bobby Fischer earlier game. Learning a lot from you. Thanks, you should put out a little book on chess
I’m glad that Gotham is covering historical matches. I know agadmagor does this too but I enjoy it more with Gotham’s commentary and personality. No hate on agadmator tho. That guy was a RUclips chess pioneer.
I enjoy the multiple perspectives.
no way agad is way better, as he goes more in depth in the variations at what was in my mind. agad is the best. gotham will never reach the agad level.
@@bobbyfischer117 chill
I'm loving the historical games series you're making! I wish I could see a review of a romantic chess game like the Immortal Game or one by Morphy one of these days, could be super interesting!
Game 6 of the 1972 world championship between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky please! Your Recaps are awesome Levy.
Thanks for an entertaining breakdown!
Damn Levy, 100k views in 6 hours? You da man!
I’ve seen this game many times and it never gets old.
Let me just appreciate Levy's work and such impact on chess promotion👏👏👏
Love your commentary. Best I’ve seen.
Such a beautiful and illustrative comments to this great game. I really appreciate your insightful explanations!!
Great video, it’s always super interesting to see how good players can see so many moves ahead! I just got to 900 today and my main concern is to not blunder! Very fascinating!
Very instructive.
Glad you decided to cover this game. I first watched it nearly a decade ago when I was just getting into chess and it always stuck with me :)
After 17...Be6, I was wondering if 18. Qxc3 would've been better than what Byrne played. After plugging the position into the lichess engine, it seems it IS the best move. That said, the position after 18. Qxc3 is still -8.5, despite black being up 5 points of material (1 bishop and 2 pawns) in this variation.
The layers of play shown in this game are why I want to keep learning chess, not because I’ll ever be this good (because I won’t), but because I think there’d be so much more beauty in it for me if I could understand the game to this extent
Mind-blowing... The world never seen the genius like Bobby.
I actually managed to find the queen sacrifice move ... after seeing it about 100 times in books
Brilliant! Thank you for your analysis.
Dude you explained this so well, thanks
I think I audibly moaned when Levy showed that smothered mate sequence
The first time I guessed the right move that Bobby played.. I would like to take this moment and thank my family and my friends.
Great vid and commentary Levy! what a great match
That was so beautiful, thank you for your charisma and understanding of chess to teach us 🙌🏾
I love how levy thinks that somebody would watch his videos hundred years later. :D Kappa
That “somebody” would be me grandchildren
the spirit of making the content levy. From indoneia
covering games is gas and the explanation of what the moves do and hypothetical lines was fire
