I heard a great story about Fischer and Reshevsky's attitude to each other. Apparently in one tournament Bobby decided not to play and left (I believe the sky was the wrong shade of blue). His clock was started, however, and by the time Bobby decided to return to the tournament, his clock was an hour in. An official told him, "You only have 10 minutes" to which he replied, "I don't need a whole ten minutes to beat Reshevsky", and waited another 5 minutes before starting the game. He won.
In another instance, Fischer was scheduled to play Reshevsky but told other players before the round had started he had decided to withdraw from the tournament. Reshevsky came totally unprepared, expecting Fischer not to show up and intending to just sit there for one hour before the referee declared him winner by default (the rule was if a player didn't come to the tournament hall within an hour from the start of the round, he automatically lost).
However, Fischer changed his mind and showed up. Reshevsky was so incensed at Fischer's antics that he couldn't settle his nerves and lost in the opening after mere 20 minutes of play.
To rub the salt in the wound, right after he beat Reshevsky Bobby went to the tournament organizers and formally informed them he was withdrawing after all.
thanks for the stories lol what a troll fosher was imo the greatest american to the ideals of most philosphers and a bane on hypocrites such as the politocal double speak@@andro99991
What a great battle that was.. as well as a great presentation by the commentator here.
Amazing! All Bobby needed was one lost tempo from Reshevsky to win this fascinating endgame.
Reshevsky played this Endgame just like I would have against Fischer - he fouled it up! 😂
Reshevsky was a nonprofessional Chessplayer whose talent allowed him to often play well but was well past his prime when Fischer came on the scene. Still the clash between upcoming dogged professional and talented but older amateur was interesting as it marked the transition of American chess from aging amateurs to young professionals.
Excellent as always. Thank you.
Bobby was either 17 or 18 years old here
he was 18
and Reshevsky was 49
Thanks ChessDawg for this video. I like watching your channel because you say things newer players must learn and experienced players must never forget. Excellent pure gold chess theory such as:
Rooks belong behind passed pawns. Rooks
crave open files. Passed pawns MUST be pushed. You know who said that one, eh, ChessDawg?
If I don't reinforce what I already know, I can fall into bad chess habits and these young whippersnappers nowadays would take advantage of this old goat. Just because I now have 60, that's SIXTY, years of playing chess, doesn't mean I can be lax and forget theory. My endgame SUCKS! Its gotten better over the last decade but still sometimes, during a post game autopsy, I say to myself these chess theory understandings to keep my blades sharp! Try me, youngwhippersnappers!

Love the channel. Recommendation though: you should incorporate your dog into these videos. Everyone likes dogs and it’s your channel’s namesake so, seems like a good move
Thank you.
Fischer had The Magnus Effect
wtf... I dont understand 36. Rf2?? In what parallel universe does that move even remotely begin to make sense? 😂
In the parallel universe where you are a grandmaster.
@@tulljack8472 I dont hve the GM title, but i can tell that move is like as if Reshevsky had a major brain-fart lol
wow that's an interesting game. Somehow I have only seen its endgame before (from Rxe8 on). Looks a bit like one of those Kasparov-Karpov games; a rook, a knight and a pawn working together can be pretty dangerous against a king. Rc6 is very counterintuitive though, hard to imagine what Sammy was thinking.
Absolutely brutal!!!!
Fischer was 18 here and Reshevsky was 49
I do realise that you admire Fischer, but how about presenting some games where he lost? Just my 2 cents. Thanks.
Nice 👍 👌
Hey man 👋🏻 can you put images and name front of pieces for ex-how agadmator chess channel makes videos
Images and names of players next to the corresponding white and black sets of pieces would undoubtedly make it easier to know who's playing with white and who with black.
@@theUroshman I know but how agadmator put images I am talking about rhat
@@WHAT-gm1xm Me, too. We're talking about the same thing, using different words, that's all. I just seconded your suggestion!
@@theUroshman do neither of you see the bottom right of the screen? I feel like I'm in some sort of bizarro world
@@hectorg5809 i have already seen but I am talking about agadmator chess channel how he keeps images and name
Present
First for D4
Reshevsky was 50 here.

Wow what a game Quite the opponent for Fischer Reshevsky definitely should’ve played b5 to keep his passed pawns rolling along bad decision not to Fischer winning this after battling with one rook vs two Nice come from behind win Growing up Bobby Fischer was a household name wish I followed back than always Great to see his games Thanks for the Recap 😊♟️
