Soon after the Palma de Mallorca Interzonal (1970) qualifier was held, the first stage (the quarterfinals) of the Candidates matches was held in four cities in May 1971. In Vancouver, Canada there was a 10 game match between Mark Taimanov and Bobby Fischer, played May 16th - June 1st.
Fischer sensationally won the match with a perfect score of 6-0, thereby proceeding to the Fischer - Larsen Candidates Semifinal (1971).
After the event, Taimanov was famously reported to have said, "At least I still have my music." He wasn't being merely melodramatic: the consequences of this loss were to haunt him for years. Taimanov later recounted in an interview with Joel Lautier:
"Until the match with Fischer in 1971, everything went smoothly in my chess career. This dramatic match changed my life into hell."
"As Fischer himself admitted at the time, the final score did not reflect the true balance of strength. The terrible feeling that I was playing against a machine which never made any mistake shattered my resistance. Fischer would never concede any weakening of his position, he was an incredibly tough defender. The third game proved to be the turning point of the match. After a pretty tactical sequence, I had managed to set my opponent serious problems. In a position that I considered to be winning, I could not find a way to break through his defenses. For every promising idea, I found an answer for Fischer, I engrossed myself in a very deep think which did not produce any positive result. Frustrated and exhausted, I avoided the critical line in the end and lost the thread of the game, which lead to my defeat eventually. Ten years later, I found at last how I should have won that fatal game, but unfortunately, it didn't matter anymore! I have written a book about this match, entitled How I Became Fischer's Victim, it represents an essay on the American player and describes how I perceived his style and personality, once the match was over."
"The sanctions from the Soviet government were severe. I was deprived of my civil rights, my salary was taken away from me, I was prohibited from travelling abroad and censored in the press. It was unthinkable for the authorities that a Soviet grandmaster could lose in such a way to an American, without a political explanation. I therefore became the object of slander and was accused, among other things, of secretly reading books of Solzhenitsin. I was banned from society for two years, it was also the time when I separated from my first wife, Lyubov Bruk."

Being up a piece and then blundering the endgame is my specialty :/.
Hey we have the same chess style :) lol
lol. If this is true then I think it has to do with tactics but also with positional understanding. Often times beginners launch a massive attack to leave themselves wide open for attack which allows the opponent to equalize.
Well, the reason I launch said massive attacks is because I blunder most of my endgames, so I prefer to have the game end in under 30 moves. It basically boils down to me being too slow at calculating ahead. I can get away with intuitive play in the early and midgame (especially in easy attacking positions that arise from many gambits), but not in the endgame.
Makes sense. Work on that end game and you'll feel less pressure early in the game.
Isolanporzellator Mine too! :)
Am I the only one who got excited and happy that I learned a lot from a longer video?. It's not like he's using a longer video to market ads or something. There's so much explanation and I LOVED that. What are you lot complaining about?. He created a poll and is catering to his subscribers' request and yet people are complaining?. If you are REALLY interested in playing chess, wouldn't you be motivated to spend an additional few minutes to study an end-game like this?. I did not see why fisher would exchange the rook. I did not see why he sacked his bishop and that king & knight diagonal theory. Never knew that. If it was a 5 minute video, you think he'd have time to explain all that?. Can't believe Antonio put in so much effort to make a perfect analysis and people are still complaining. No disrespect, but those who complain - you lost the vote. Mind respecting the opinions of the many and the man for respecting us?. I understand that some people have a short attention span. But as pointed out in comments, increase the video speed, take a breather and come back or just watch it when you have a lot of time. You see, there are not a lot of good chess channels of this quality with such good analysis. It would be a great disservice to most of us who are interested in going the extra mile to improve our game. It's a request.
Completely agree :)
Indeed
well said
the vocal minority coming out. i enjoyed this endgame analysis a lot and learned a ton. loved the vid!
mozisi the endgame was so rich of concepts that the middle game wasn't analysed much, although it was rich as well. What this video taught me is that the more you know about endgame the more you know about accepting trades or force your opponent to trade. I might have traded Queens just like Fisher did, but mostly because I know Bishops have a slight edge over Knights. But the follow through is hard and this game is a good example to explain a lot of the endgame complexity
Man seriously, you killed it this time...
I can't even remember, it has been probably a million times that I've lost the endgame, just because I didn't strategize well enough. For me , This was your BEST analysis ever...keep up the good work..cheers...
Astitv Shandilya thanks but I m the most foolish guy in the endgames on earth
Yes, the endgame analysis I find the be the most valuable part of many of these games. HUGE help to me too.
VERY high level end-game. I'm goint to study this game for sure. I need to improve my end-game.
Me to when I get to the end game I always think I am going to lose.
How would you study? I want to learn and study but idk how lol
me to.
Yes I agree you need to improve your end game
"I sometimes avoided a queen trade just to avoid a queen trade" I feel targeted
18:55 It takes the knight 3 moves to check the king, not 4 (as was said in the video). [For example: 1... Nc3 2... Ne2 3... Nd4+] 3 Moves.
It takes the knight 4 moves to OCCUPY that square. (Just a little correction I noticed, and thanks for the great quality video as always.)
Man you couldn't have explained the moves any better Agadmator. So much insight into every single move, really shows how damn good Fischer was
"It seems most of you don't mind longer videos"
*posts a twenty fucking one minute video*
Lol nah in all honesty I've been losing a huuuuge advantage in chess and it almost ALWAYS starts spiraling down toward the endgame which I thought was crazy cuz I didn't realize HOW important it is. And yeah I did the same thing. I avoided a queen trade and lost just 20 minutes ago.
I'm soooo happy you decided to do a video like this. And I personally love the longer videos. Don't listen to the people that say they want shorter videos... They can watch only the shorter ones if they want. Keep up the great video! I love this!
i liked it
LOL
Watch your mouth idiot
@@chitramaridi ?
7:56 "unfortunately for Taimanov, he played b6" damn, that was my idea as well to avoid both threats
Don't feel bad most of us would have played that move. And playing anyone but Fisher the move would have been more than adequate.
I love how he says things like, "The knight doesn't have any future" or "There is nothing else to do here." I've never heard someone talk about chess strategy that way.
Really beautiful endgame. I usually prefer wild sacrificial attacks, but as I get older(and stronger at chess), I seem to just get more and more enjoyment out of learning and understanding endgames. Attacks are complex and can be calculated for many many moves if it's forcing etc, but I have found that endgame ideas are basically just as wide in range and scope as sacrifices, if not MORE, and the complexities can and probably are far harder to calculate, which IMO is why stronger players excel far more and endgames and usually win games there.(see simuls). Endgame ideas like I said are wide ranging in scope and some ideas are simply that, and are not able to be calculated to a winning position, but you know that you will have chances and you believe it's winning, you just can't give lines until a hard winning position.
Some endgames and the ideas behind them are just beautiful, like when Bobby decided to go into the 6 pawn/B vs K endgame and forced the trade of rooks. But not just the idea itself, the execution was also methodical and merciless. Outstanding game from Bobby Fischer.
Comment: on 19:06: "when the king and knight are these position, it takes four moves to check the king" -> three actually. I mean three moves to check the king. Four moves to get into the current location of king.
I enjoy your analysis of hypothetical lines. Ar the end of one, when you switch back to what really happened, it's like I'm coming out of a trance.
All the people wanting to watch shorter videos only enjoy watching chess... People wanting longer videos enjoy winning in chess
Hello chess watchers!
*Otamalulu,* mostly yes :D
Otamalulu Exactly
Agreed, those shorter videos aren't as instructive as the longer ones usually.
Otamalulu fuck u
just awesome!
watched this video morning, & at noon I was up playing an almost similar endgame ..
would like to say that you are really doing a great work sir!!
Thank you, sir :)
This is exactly the kind of video that helps improve the game. This was a masterclass by Fisher. Really good game and thanks for the insights. It was great.
This was some Karpovian mastery before Karpov's time! What a positional masterpiece by Fischer.
Don't listen to the rest of these guys Antonio, having a variety of shorter and longer videos is what makes your channel so great!!!
This lengthy video was so interesting it was over before I knew it ..
What a great end game vid and thanks for the knight tip, keep up the good work.
I think this is your first video from which I learnt something. It was very interesting. 20 mins passed like 2 minutes. Every important variation was covered with good explanation unlike your previous videos. Long and interesting is the way to go. I just subscribed after watching this video!
The last paragraph in the description is horrible. It makes sense to me now what Agadmator said in the video of the game between Smyslov and Gligoric titled "2000 spectators roared ..." . He said Gligoric was not very happy because he understood what it meant for a Russian GM with white pieces to lose to a non-Russian. I had not understood it when I heard it the first time. Now it makes perfect sense. Great Channel and great commentary. Thanks,
Love your work great video
Rythem Chaudhari mæ
Yesterday I managed to win similar game due to the fact that I remembered this video and your detailed endgame analyses. Thank you Agad
Love the in-depth analysis. Great showing of a masterful endgame.
I believe the video content must define it's length. You keep making the videos you enjoy making and if a video comes up too long it's not e problem. Due to the nature of your videos you already are pumping way more content than most of the serious youtube channels out there so you have nothing to worry about!
One of my favourite agadmator videos. The length is perfect for a sunday afternoon with some coffee
I just discover your channel. I spent the night on it, very appreciate your work !
Welcome :)
I love how the quotes by one of the two chess players on all of your videos has some sort of insight into chess....... and then there is this video with Bobby Fischer's view on women haha
Loved the long video because so much awesomeness and knowledge in the content.
Thanks for sharing it with us. And keep making more of such videos.
King’s position to prevent checks from knight was awesome
I'm really glad you put up an endgame video that really goes in-depth. I'm a terrible endgame player (90% of my losses are in the endgame) and this is very helpful.
Tremendous endgame by Fischer. Thanks too to Agadmator for his analysis: he's the best chess teacher since Fred Reinfeld and Irving Chernev. My suggestion: the Capablanca endgame vs Tartakower. Capa sacs two pawns to slalom his king up the board and seize the 7th rank for his rook.
What an incredibly informative video, great job
18:55 Actually, while it does take the knight 4 moves to move 2 squares diagonally, it only takes 3 moves to check a king on that space.
This is my favorite video of yours. So informative and entertaining in a way that is rare to see.
I really like this 21 min format. I believe it's really necesary for an endgame study to take some time (as the game itself takes time if it features such an endgame!). However I would like the shorter videos to stay and once in a while let a wild long video appear haha
This game expanded my mind, the end game is clearly where it's at, people are worried about the length of content?
It's quality over quantity, this video shows that. Anybody who really argues with this must be better at the end game than Fischer himself, or they just want entertainment, if its entertainment you want, go watch football. This game is clearly not for the lighthearted.
So true Agadmator. Know how games can end, know how they begin. Hello from Colorado USA. My Friends and I are studying your analysis to try and beat each other. I need to watch more. I lose more often than win.
You're channel is definitely one of the best commentator chess channels to subscribe to for the millions of chess lovers all over the world‼️ Thank you from the bottom of my heart that you share these great instructive games with us. Kudos and thank God for your channel. Everyone who truly loves the game of chess should be a subscriber to your channel‼️ Again, Thank you.
A masterpiece! I love the simplicity of the endgames. Seen this game many times and this was an excellent presentation. Thank you.
Thank you for the video... Very well explained. The people who want a short video, they are not deeply into the chess and don't know the price of your explanations. I personally when watch your videos , forget the time passing and 20min video is nothing for me and chess lovers but a lot for chess surfers.
Just found this content... and this channel is absolute GOLD!
I thoroughly enjoyed this longer video, thank you for posting this.
Thank you for the video and the written story. I enjoy a mix of video lengths. This was very instructive.
Damn, this guy is a monster...there are a few pawns and a minor piece for each side and the game is still extremly complex, and the way Fischer taught it is amazing. In his prime he was undefeated(smashed his opponents in the candidates tournament with 6-0 is quite an achimevent). I really enjoy watching his games, his positional chess is incredible, way better than Karpov's.
Amazing video, I like longer videos for sure. Much more to learn
I'm a beginner chess player and have been meaning to look up openings, but this video really encouraged me as learning openings is quite intimidating. I will continue to seek them out, but not as desperately as practicing the end game. Thank you!
Agad, I think the best way to deal with the long video thing would be to make mostly short (10ish minutes) videos during the week and then on the weekends make longer ones when people have more free time and could enjoy going in depth more.
That's actually a great idea. Especially for a daily uploader like agadmator
Great idea
There's a Watch later button for a reason :D What if there's an incredibly long match with tons of interesting moves come out on a tournament and people want you to comment on it?
Good work . Very informative. More endgames please :)
Hey again! My comment on the last video sparked the length discussion, and firstly I just want to say that I respect you for creating a poll so quickly to get some good feedback. Most people seem to like the variety of lengths. and even though I personally tend to favor the shorter videos, I respect that not everyone else has the same preference. And on top of that, I actually thoroughly enjoyed all 21 minutes of this video, so I'd say just keep doing your thing :) And I hope the feedback helped in some way! Cheers
Very instructive chess lesson. Keep up the good work.👍
Longer videos are preferred as the content on this channel is always great!!!
One of the best game...and one of the best description by you..Thanks..it is a morning treat
.
I like the games you normally post about tactics, but video's like this can really help me become a better chess player! Thank you!!
Thank you so much! I've just bought Endgame manual from Dvoretsky. This video of yours also helped me a lot to get to know better the finals and improve my chess skills. I hope more of this come! Big fan from Brazil ^^
One of the most educational videos you've done. Thanks.
Re-watching the video as the part of the current series.
I loved that. Makes me realise that I kind of missed a deeper analysis in some presentations you've made.
Fantastic! This was a remarkable risk that you took by lengthening the time of your video threshold. The finer, granular detail provided a much better understanding of the bespoke game and positional chess in general. As a long time fan and new sub, I can only tell you my own opinion -- this was very helpful. Particularly the tactical tips sprinkled throughout. E.g., knight/king protective spacing. I was about to quit studying chess for good last night after a precipitous online rating drop. However, your contribution and love of the beautiful game has reinvigorated me. Thank you!
I don’t mind a mix like having one of these every so often is nice
I like the longer format. Ive had trouble with other chess channels that post 20-30 minute videos, but i guess that is mostly because they are dull. You kept up the usual interesting dialogue and demeanor for the whole runtime, so full marks there. I do still appreciate the short videos analysing single situations as i watch them on my coffee break at work. No worries though, you have a huge library for me to work through :)
Really great video and thanks for showing some serious endgame skills! 8-10 mins is definitely the best length for normal videos but I do appreciate an even more thorough (if that’s even possible from you!) analysis every now and then :)
Great teaching ! Enjoyed your comments !
I love it. Do more like these every now and then. I learnt a lot in this video, and i would love to see more when you are focusing on a particular aspect like end game, middle, or opening games. Thank you very much.
I really like the 10 second rewind feature of RUclips. Very handy when watching your videos.
Love it! Thank you Agad.
Agadmator, so glad I came across your videos. I don't know that I'll find any better tutorials and insights into the players whose games you review, than right here at your channel!
When my current employment situation and income improve I will be more than happy to make token donations to help keep these videos coming!
A lot of preparation for these longer videos! I like Fischer endgames a lot thanks. Honestly I find shorter victories boring, not enough competition, and its more impressive
Your explanation is awesome. I love your videos. Please make more such interesting videos
I prefer these types of videos! More learning videos like this!
I enjoyed the longer video. Thank you!
Thank you for this very instructive video. Longer videos are welcome. I appreciate your efforts, sir.
I like to watch the other grandmasters too, hope you see more of Lasker, but I'm also interested to see the rivalry between Karpov & Kasparov often too.
21 minutes of pure joy, thank you !
I think the best thing you can do is have variation. Some people are here for the short videos, some people genuinely want to improve and endgame videos are quite hard to come by (especially because a lot of chess channels are focusing on tactical games). I personally am delighted that you're thinking about doing longer videos, with the depth and number of variations that you go through I learn a lot more than on some other channels.
leerobbo92 yes. And the endgame videos available only teach eleme tary endgames like Lucena, philidor, K vs K+P, BvsB+P, 2 bishop mate, bishop and Knight mate which people already know and they rarely occur in games Practical endgames like these are hard to find.
Brilliant end game, quite intense. Am a big fan of Mr Fisher and really enjoyed this game. Thanks for sharing...
After seeing this video, I realise that I've been focusing way too much on openings. I now understand the importance of studying end-game and I can't help but think of all the games that I've lost because of failing to come up with winning end-game strategies. Thanks for the great analysis.
thank you for all the good games including this one
Very instructive. And the King v. Knight diagonal to avoid checks is amazing!
Thanks for the in depth help and insight into the endgame. Great video
Great vid, very knowledgeable about the players, history and theory. I enjoyed it much!
A fantastic informative endgame study, thank you Agadmator.
Thank you for sharing and appreciate the end game study.
thanks for this wonderful video of Bobby Fischer
Thanks! Hope you do more end game videos.
The best video from the best chess channel!
What a perfect illustration of end game play. Thank you.
There is no logical reason to focus on the length of the content instead of the quality. If you watch two ten minute videos then why can you not watch a 20 minute video?
I really enjoyed this, Antonio.
I miss playing this game and even if i am never be able to play it again i still like watching your videos.
Please more agad!!! I enjoyed this video so much I liked it twice!
You chose to show us a Bobby Fischer video because he is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!
my sunday is always great when agadmator posts a new video
love that tip about a diagonal square between a king and knight takes 4 moves to check.. really useful.
Superb programme
Love Fischer. Love his openings.
Great video! Having 20 min videos occasionally will be a great change of pace
Very educational video! Thanks for your analysis of this end game.
I really like when lines are explained. I watch these videos to get better at chess, and the endgame is said to be the most difficult stage of a match, so the in depth commentary is perfect for anyone looking to improve their skills :)
Plus all players need to get better in the end game. I played a 1500+ player recently and with an extra knight, rook, and bishop, he couldn't capture my king and I won on time 😂 (5+0 blitz)
Grazie Agad! Another beautiful game by RJF! 🔱
Great commentary!
