    Morphy was truly a Titan of chess. He's the father of modern chess in that he shows, as illustrated in this game, how the game of clever tricks can't compete with rapid development and control of space before embarking on adventures that presuppose your opponent making a mistake. It's amazing that so many of Morphy's moves are seen today to be the best choices. Astonishing.

    • @eliezerferrieri
      @eliezerferrieri 2 года назад

      A Morphy bastava giocare una due partite per comprendere la forza le capacita del suo avversari. Morhy a volte giocava anche rishiando perche conosceva la forza del suo avversario e sapeva fino a dove potersi spingere.Un altra cosa che sfugge a molti che analizzano le partite di Morphy cercando di capire quale fosse il seguito piu' forte,va ricordato che per Morphy gli scacchi erano arte. lui ricercava la bellezza artistica in una partita quindi rischiava anche per ottenere una partita interessente. Infatti delle 1000 e piu' partite giocate da Morphy ce ne sono circa 500 conosciute perche' se Morphy non riteneva le partite di qualche interesse non le faceva pubblicare anche se aveva vinto lui.E' esemplare che di due partite giocate contro un aveversario di cui una vinta ed una persa Morphy fece pubblicare solo la partita in cui perse perche ritenuta piu' interessante.

  • @somewhere6
    @somewhere6 4 года назад +1

    Meek actually had an ok game but missing the upcoming temporary knight sacrifice was a serious blunder. Morphy could only go in that direction, so some extra preventative measures were clearly necessary which would have enabled Meek to then make some noise on the queenside.
