I do like old Karpov quite a bit myself, but I wonder if he acts this way to atone for having had the upper hand in terms of support and intimidation for so long in his career with the USSR behind him against opponents like Korchnoi. Both legends imo.
I think if you lived in the USSR you had to play their game, or else. Nobody was bigger than the state and you could just 'disappear' if that was what the Party wanted. I don't think we can understand the fear of growing up in the USSR in the 1950's and 60's as Karpov did. There were few opportunities and who can blame Karpov for taking his via chess.
This is a story via my dad, from when he lived in Tbilisi, Georgia: Karpov (in his prime) came to Georgia to play matches against many opponents at once and one of them was a friend of my dad's, who happened to be an excellent chess player. And so, Karpov walked from table to table, eventually defeating each player, until it was just my dad's friend left. A large crowd gathered and it seemed that Karpov had made a suboptimal move earlier in the match, so my dad's friend was really pushing the advantage. Eventually, Karpov hesitantly shook his opponent's hand, resigned, and walked out, looking quite upset. I don't remember my dad's friend's name, only that he had a weird condition which caused him to fall asleep often =D.
She played the game the way it's meant to be played, even if it meant she never reached the very top. Easily the greatest woman player of all time and a lovely lady too!
"I'm not saying any names (because I don't want to embarrass anyone), but it was the third round of the 1987 Brussels tournament and the first GM that I had ever beaten and his initials were LG". -Judit Polgar ;)
@@cinegraphics I mean, how can we bear hiding *facts* in order to avoid a subjective matter such as "embarrassing" someone else when again, we're speaking the truth?...
@@alessbritish228 yeah, you're right. But then it can spread to so many subjects. For example, can I ask you what's your opinion about the allegedly best driver of all times Lewis Hamilton and his 7 (soon to be 8) world championship titles?
In the photo of 1.30, Judit looks like an autograph hunting child that is excited to get a picture with a grandmaster 😅❤ No wonder people underestimated her (at least when she was this young)
I once read a story, that in a tournament around this era JP played another GrandMaster, who won their game. After the tournament, he said that this was his best game, he was really well prepared and focused, because "If you are a GM, you generally don't want to be beaten by 10 year-old girls with ponytails" :)
This is the second Judit Polgar's game I watch on a video today, and it is the second game that doesn't fail to make me smile. What a remarkable creature she is.
Thanks very much for posting, agadmator; your commentary is first rate as always! Judit is a player whose games always astonish me for their aggressiveness and confident skill. She is by far the most entertaining player ever, along with the great genius Alekhine.
How are people confused about the reaction. If you spend the better part of your life trying to master a game only to lose to an 11 year old girl I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't take it well.
That is the fascination of chess, however good you think you are there is always the probability you'll get hammered by a gifted 11 year old. It's a game no one can ever master fully!
Losing or losing to a female? Both are bound to happen. Dipshit couldn't stand losing to a female as if chess should be dominated by males. He reacted to the loss like a child.
I love the way he chuckles saying "I think you should know who 'this person' is." Whereas usually agadmator politely would say "and for those who just want to enjoy the show," here he implies, "wherever you are in the chess knowledge continuum, if you can't recognize Bobby Fischer, you don't quite belong here." (Playfully intended of course.)
Thank you for the video, and also the podcast link. Having the game fresh in mind as Judit mentioned it was good, but also an interesting conversation all in all. Thank you!
What was truly exciting about Judit was that she was not only among the Top Ten players in the world in the 1990s, but you could watch the "live" relay of some of her games on the Internet circa 1997 I believe, and she had that fantastic, characteristic and aggressive style of play. I remember logging in to the server at work over a modem and seeing moves played and then transferring this to an actual board, and win or lose, Judit was always a very exciting player to watch. - j q t -
Not only RJF came over to play Susan, also other gm/im did. RJF can be considered as a friend, while most others are competitors or learners. Hence the Judith/Bob piccy. It reminded me about an anecdote in a dutch book, which I don't want to get into oblivion , (of Honner I believe) quoting: "As I knew that RJF and others gm visited the sisters, I went too (Jan Timman if I'm not mistaking). When it was late after midnight studying an endgame position, the sisters proposed to wake up Judith. Why? Just read: "she came sleepy downstairs, looked no more that 2 minnutes at the chessboard, and played the winning move. She went directly back to bed, not bothering if the others understood the move or not. And she was right. "
I don't know how play chess, but every day I watch a couple of videos. Can't put a finger on why, but these are so interesting even though I hardly understand most of it. Keep up the good work!
I fits to Gutman. I can confirm, that i saw him with my own eyes throwing a big mechanical GARDE Chessclock through the tournament room in Bad Wörishofen after a lost game in 1996 or 1997 :D. (I was a pupil back then and it was the best open in a 30 mile radius from my hometown.)
the white lines are my fav opening as white. and seeing this really amazes me. how come she could calculate all the attacking moves, but still keeping the king so safe and secure? holy! this is better than the classical games between strong GMs
I am not a very good chess player, but played a lot on decent level in my youth. I have a question around 4:43. If you do xf4 as black and white does play Rxd7, you can also do xg3 and when white does Rxc7, black can simply play xh2. Kxh2 and then when you play Be5 you can take rook next turn. Is there anything white can do to stop that?
Photo is Bobby Fischer. He actually lived with the Polgars for a period of time in their home I believe and I think Susan Polgar won several games against him, although I cannot remember if she had a plus score against him or not.
I find it risible that people judge chess players by their age. It's been proven time and time again that chess talent manifests at a young age. And regardless, you're not playing the person, you're playing the board.
Speaking of banging your head, a friend told me this: A man observed another man bang his head for while, then he paused, then he repeated the process of banging and pausing. So he asked him, Sir, why do you keep banging your head against the wall? And the other man answered, Because when it feels so good when I stop!
An experienced master is at a disadvantage when playing an equally talented youngster. The youth can study hundreds of their opponent's games to understand his playing style and fashion a strategy. The older player has much fewer games by the younger player to study, and can be surprised by unconventional play for which he is unprepared.
You could say the opposite when it comes to experience in endgame situations though, so in my mind the win is well earned. Besides, this was an age before online databases and such, it might have been difficult to find a lot of info on your opponent's games.
@@facespaz Well you are right, an experienced older player of equal skill will have a better endgame, presuming that he is not already in a losing position because the younger player surprised him earlier in the game. I disagree about the lack of databases being a problem, in fact that would help the younger player. It is much more likely that the well-known grandmaster will have his games published in printed chess magazines and books than the newcomer. This would actually magnify the advantage of being able to research the well-known player. The newcomer might not be published in paper periodicals at all.
@@JamieTransNyc I agree the top tier GMs would have ample sources with their games at that time, but I honestly have no idea to what extent that would apply to mid-tier GMs, I wasn't a player so you might be right that once you're a GM, even at that time, your games could be easily found. It would impress me if a kid showed enough resourcefulness to do this with every opponent though, and imo if the Grandmaster underestimates his opponent to a degree that s/he is left in a losing position from not taking the opening seriously, they deserve the loss.
I think is true what you say not even only on professional levels. When someone plays someone new is hard to know if one should play aggressively or with caution.
@@AI_ART_LIBRARY I suspect this is one reason when a new player bursts upon the scene they run rampant over everyone for a while. Eventually the other players learn their style, and then they start losing. This is why someone like Kasparov is so amazing. Everyone on the planet analyzed his games, knew his style... and still could not beat him for 20 years.
at 6:53 its a slightly better position for black ( -0.4) , after taking the bishop its a slightly better position for white ( +0.1) , perhaps it is a draw after taking the bishop , but for a human to many checks to follow from the rook and the queen it willnot be easy to survive. You can try it in stockfish and you will see the ideas. The move that Lev Gutman played (bishop E6) its the best move in the position and still keeping slight advantage for black -0.4..
& then Qf8 ke7, Qd6 Kb7, Qxc6 Kb8 or a7, Qxknb6 & white is just winning on any other case still pawn on c4 or knight on b6 will be up the grab as well.
These days playing online chess has the benefit of not seeing, or in some cases, not knowing, how young your opponent is. A God-send for many as it is a very humbling (some say traumatic) to lose to an opponent who is many decades younger. If GM Lev Gutman could telescope into the future and see what Judit Polgar would achieve, he wouldn't have been so hard on himself. Credit to Lev Gutman that even today, 10th June 2021, he is actively mixing it up with other players on chess.com.
At 6:48 it instantly does come to mind if bishop c5 check was playable, winning the bishop, but since a grandmaster did not play it so had to look deep in the position. Maybe something like Bc5+, Kh1. Qxh7 Rxf6+. Ke8 Qxe5+ was not a good view for the GM with black.
6:50 i don't understand why not bishop c5 check by Gutman, opening a discovery attack against the bishop on h7, that would stop the attack and gain a piece, or am i missing something obvious here?
So Bc5 with check, Kh1, Qxh7? I think white would follow up with Rxf6 with check, black must go Ke7 or Ke8 unless he wants to sac his queen, white continues the attack with Qxe5 and then has black's king pretty much stifled between the Queen and Rook. I'm not sure it's a forced mate but I think black would have to sacrifice a lot of material to stay alive.
Did I miss something behind Bc5+ at 6:50 followed with Kh1, Qh7, Rf6+, Ke8, Qe5+, Qe7? White is kinda forced to exchange queens and he will be 3 pawns up and with rook against knight and bishop pair which is winning for black. Also I just saw that white could play Qh5+, Kd8, Qd1+ and Kc7 where he is pretty much safe
When I was a teen I was defeated by a kid around that age, and I was really embarrassed and angry. Today if an eleven year old played this game against me I'd just be impressed.
May I ask you, What is your title bro? 😅😅 you explain in so excellent and in many various combination ways. I watch your every videos since I've subscribed you, even I like to watch recommend old videos on my homepage. Really enjoyable.
Honestly if I lost to any 11 year old, boy or girl, I would feel like banging my head against something too. It's hard to come to terms with a kid beating you. Just imagine how Byrne felt when Bobby crushed him, and that was a 13 year old.
I understand your point but the idea of losing to a kid never makes someone feel good, unless it's their own kid I imagine. I don't think most people would rationalize it like this anyway, and besides that fact most 11-14 year olds aren't chess experts and are certainly not known as chess experts. This guy will just forever think "I lost to an eleven year old kid." It's a hard pill to swallow.
@Tracchofyre That's not quite true. Lot's of people pass a threshold around that time. But if they keep playing, people tend to peak in their twenties/thirties.
At age 11 she crushed him and he even had a better position at one point. Why is it such a ego killer to lose to young players? Why wouldn't you be happy for their achievements? Or maybe it was losing to a girl that bugged him which is really silly too. Crushed his ego she did!!
now when I play chess theres a mini agadmator commentating on my head though I dont know why he's constantly saying "a bad move for "
I get the same feeling
Here comes g4
There is one in my head to... But he just says "why are you about to resign? Well... "
And when u lose or win « well it’s completly lost for »
That's weird. I always hear him say "you can play this or that and black is still fine here".
I remember one of the grandmasters referred to the child Judit Polgar as "this cute little auburn haired monster that crushes you".
lmfao
It was David Norwood (it's on her wikipedia page... always nice.)
I’ve always thought that was one of the cringiest/corniest quotes in the history of chess haha
Anatoly Karpov was kinda happy for 13 year old Magnus in the post-game interview when he got beaten by him. That's a real gentleman and a champion!
I always liked Karpov. He enjoys the game itself, rather than just using it as an ego trip like many top players.
Karpov is people's champion with a big heart.
I do like old Karpov quite a bit myself, but I wonder if he acts this way to atone for having had the upper hand in terms of support and intimidation for so long in his career with the USSR behind him against opponents like Korchnoi. Both legends imo.

“No reverse gear Judit” - brilliant😂👌🏻
That remind us "No reverse gear Rashid" XD
I believe many commentators like that name :) E.g., Mato often mentions that Judit has no reverse gear.
She played the game the way it's meant to be played, even if it meant she never reached the very top. Easily the greatest woman player of all time and a lovely lady too!

After 25.Bh7 Bc5+ 26.Kh1 Qxh7 27.Rxf6+ with further checks by the white queen. I haven't worked it out completely but I think white comes out on top.
Exactly this was the first move that popped into my head. After 27.Rxf6+ 28.Ke8 and white can't give check
At 6:49, cant black play Bc5+ to pick up the light squared bishop?
Rxf6+ and Qxe5+ after this
Judit is one of my favourite players, always going for the win, incredible player :-)
Finally understood why he bends and says 'Sorry about that' in almost every video

at 6:53 its a slightly better position for black ( -0.4) , after taking the bishop its a slightly better position for white ( +0.1) , perhaps it is a draw after taking the bishop , but for a human to many checks to follow from the rook and the queen it willnot be easy to survive. You can try it in stockfish and you will see the ideas. The move that Lev Gutman played (bishop E6) its the best move in the position and still keeping slight advantage for black -0.4..
& then Qf8 ke7, Qd6 Kb7, Qxc6 Kb8 or a7, Qxknb6 & white is just winning on any other case still pawn on c4 or knight on b6 will be up the grab as well.
Calvin Lobo how does she win the C5 bishop if Queen blocks checkmate with Qe7?
If she beat me like that I would've had to say how in the world did you see that? You're a genius.
1:52 OH MY GOD I NOW KNOW WHAT THOSE "SORRY ABOUT DAT"S MEAN!
I don't. I didn't notice any difference. What is the volume he's referring to?
@@rg7535 He keeps saying "sorry about that" in his videos and tilts down. Apparently he does it because the volume is too high.
These days playing online chess has the benefit of not seeing, or in some cases, not knowing, how young your opponent is. A God-send for many as it is a very humbling (some say traumatic) to lose to an opponent who is many decades younger. If GM Lev Gutman could telescope into the future and see what Judit Polgar would achieve, he wouldn't have been so hard on himself. Credit to Lev Gutman that even today, 10th June 2021, he is actively mixing it up with other players on chess.com.
The guy for the photo challenge is Bobby Fischer.
At 6:48 it instantly does come to mind if bishop c5 check was playable, winning the bishop, but since a grandmaster did not play it so had to look deep in the position. Maybe something like Bc5+, Kh1. Qxh7 Rxf6+. Ke8 Qxe5+ was not a good view for the GM with black.
Yes,after Rxf6+ and Qxe5+ = one wrong move from black => black will lose the game
I would love to see more women's chess. 🖒
6:50 i don't understand why not bishop c5 check by Gutman, opening a discovery attack against the bishop on h7, that would stop the attack and gain a piece, or am i missing something obvious here?
So Bc5 with check, Kh1, Qxh7? I think white would follow up with Rxf6 with check, black must go Ke7 or Ke8 unless he wants to sac his queen, white continues the attack with Qxe5 and then has black's king pretty much stifled between the Queen and Rook. I'm not sure it's a forced mate but I think black would have to sacrifice a lot of material to stay alive.
This lady demonstrated that there's no barrels between women and men in chess.... Instead of Elizabeth Harmon, I think it should be Judit Polgar
Not really.
9:25 yes it is, mate in 2, Qf6 Ke8 Qf8
Rip gutman
Did I miss something behind Bc5+ at 6:50 followed with Kh1, Qh7, Rf6+, Ke8, Qe5+, Qe7? White is kinda forced to exchange queens and he will be 3 pawns up and with rook against knight and bishop pair which is winning for black. Also I just saw that white could play Qh5+, Kd8, Qd1+ and Kc7 where he is pretty much safe
When I was a teen I was defeated by a kid around that age, and I was really embarrassed and angry. Today if an eleven year old played this game against me I'd just be impressed.
May I ask you, What is your title bro? 😅😅 you explain in so excellent and in many various combination ways.
I watch your every videos since I've subscribed you, even I like to watch recommend old videos on my homepage.
Really enjoyable.
Honestly if I lost to any 11 year old, boy or girl, I would feel like banging my head against something too. It's hard to come to terms with a kid beating you. Just imagine how Byrne felt when Bobby crushed him, and that was a 13 year old.
I understand your point but the idea of losing to a kid never makes someone feel good, unless it's their own kid I imagine. I don't think most people would rationalize it like this anyway, and besides that fact most 11-14 year olds aren't chess experts and are certainly not known as chess experts. This guy will just forever think "I lost to an eleven year old kid." It's a hard pill to swallow.
@Tracchofyre That's not quite true. Lot's of people pass a threshold around that time. But if they keep playing, people tend to peak in their twenties/thirties.
Why not bishop h2 instead of rook d1 on 7:26 ?? That wins on the spot I think, am I wrong??
You mean bishop to h7! Yes, that's interesting line that wasn't mentioned...
At age 11 she crushed him and he even had a better position at one point. Why is it such a ego killer to lose to young players? Why wouldn't you be happy for their achievements? Or maybe it was losing to a girl that bugged him which is really silly too. Crushed his ego she did!!
it is a really old Buddhist point of view: being happy for the merits of others.
if you say in the voice of Yoda it sounds better.
virtue signaling?
Its normal. Even Kasparov was embarrased because he got a draw from Magnus. He was clearly just doing that because he realized his mistakes
Hein MT the point really goes over your head huh? Damn Social Justic Warriors
Wonderful attacking game by a 11 year old. Amazing.
