I can't believe your daughter is already three years old! I remember when she was born, and I had already been watching your videos for quite some time. You have become an important part of my life. It's a joy watching your videos. Cheers from Los Angeles!
I still have my old paperback copy of Fischer's 60 memorable games. While he didn't explore Bh5, throughout the book, he gives quite a few alternative lines within the games. Playing through them is indeed a pleasure.
I remember a game from that book in which I'm a l m o s t certain he was playing Geller. Gellar played a move and Fischer comments, "He was smiling as he played this move". Later in the game, he played another move "And was still smiling". Later, Bobby makes a punishing move and remarks, "He thought for a long time after this move. Also, he stopped smiling"!
#suggestion for a quote. Giri said after his game today, “H3 impressed me, I didn’t know the point so I was impressed”. Very funny quote for future use
I greatly appreciate your comment about playing with a physical board. It feels different I am a pediatrician and have observed an increase in many behavioral problems in association with over dependence on screens. But NOT among kids who play chess on a physical board
Fischer's king could've easily scooted into the corner to safety if needed, and basically removed any potential threats and counter attacks black could've hoped for. Not to mention there were open and semi-open files on the black king, which seemed vulnerable to a queen sac and mobilization of white's rooks en tempo. And of course Fischer's bishop is always worth about 5 points in his games because he seems to be able to magnify its potency in every critical position.
"But my daughter lost interest in like 10 minutes" lmao nooooo hang in there Antonio, keep the chess board in her sight at all times if you have to! haha
I second the motion to set up a physical chess board with actual pieces - as suggested by Agadmator near the end. Yes, today's chess engines are fantastic but in terms of learning and retention, there is a lot to be said for physically making the moves and visualizing in true 3D. . I think that on some level, Agadmator agrees with this or he would not have suggested setting up a chess board etc. (I do own a copy of Bobby's 60 Memorable chess games, and have reviewed most of these games.)
For the first pause-the-video moment, I saw Bh5 immediately (as everyone did), but I thought, "Patzer sees a check!" and didn't calculate much beyond that. Instead, I buckled down and thought for a few minutes, and I came up with f4. Hooray! I'm Bobby Fischer!
Love the vid but the thumbnail is a bit weird. Feels AI which I would prefer to avoid. Switching it up here & there is fine but please don’t go all out AI the thumbnails you had before are great & iconic
@@frederickkrewson638 It was quite surprising for me as well. But it seems that after Qxc6+, black can block with Rb7 and holds a little longer. I mean, not much though. Being -7 down against Fischer is not exactly "holding"
I found the winning move, and even the pawn capture made possible by the rook pinning the other pawn, but I definetly wouldn't be able to convert it into a win
I know Agad has a fascination for and great respect of Mikhail Tal. Agad thinks Tal was the greatest chess master of all time. I think Bobby Fisher was the greatest chess master of all time. This is one of those rare moments where both of us are right!
Kinda feel weird that you can still met people that live through ww2. You read them from history book, even your grandpa may read them on history book, yet they still alive
@@michaelmassaro4375 oh, I see it now. It was a stupid question. The point is the fork and removing the bishop from protecting the running the squares and not forcing black’s hand.
Agadmator suggests I am PROBABLY watching this on a screen. Just checking in... How many NON-GMs are listening on podcast, and just keeping track of the many board positions in their head? And for those NOT watching on a screen. Pray Tell? What type of setup are you using? Is there an agadmator Magic Chess board that moves the pieces and plays the audio as it does so? (Seriously, I might buy one!)
Well, for the last pause-the-video moment, I was so sure about my win that I would have blundered my queen. After Kxb2 and Rfb1+, black can block with the knight. It's always the moves back with the knight. Tricky bastards.
My four year old watches me watch your videos. And I’ve got the board out with her too. She is stoked to learn, but does lose interest quick. Won’t be long though.
#suggestion while everyone is talking about hans vs levy but no one is talking about Magnus's blunder against Asish panda in late title Tuesday of July 2nd. please make a video on it.
@@michaelmassaro4375 Yeah that's what it sounds like but I have no idea what he said there. But Fisher said it, so I want to know what it was. Hopefully Agad can clarify.
@@yggdrasil9039 The term is 'Patser', which can refer to amateurs at chess. The meaning of the quote translates to 'foolish players see a check and give a check without thinking things through'. The irony, as stated in the video, is that the check was indeed the best move.
It was Fischer’s move at that point he had checked the king with his Bf4+ the Black king went to b7 the white Queen than went to b5 so Klaus did not get the opportunity to intercede with Qb4 challenging Fischer’s Queen and Fischer would not have had to trade at that point
I hate the French also. I use to play the Advance with Nc3, g4 with some success but French players love closed games and the possibility of countering. So I started playing the exchange variation with an open game. It seems to do fine as it is not the positions that black was hoping for when he played 1...e6.
After watching documentary - why was he so stigmatised by his own country? Nakon gledanja dokumentarca - zašto su ga toliko naružili i govori najgore o njemu kao ličnosti? Da li je stvarno bio takav? Ako imaš neku referencu detaljniju, bio bih zahvalan na odgovoru :)

I feel better cause I found the move Fischer made. And the engine.
You’re saying you used the engine?

I was 3/3 today finding moves, but I admit the first one was because patzer sees a check.
halfway through the BF saga just past Palma de Mellorca tourney. So great this drops today.
Your command of chess history and tactics is amazing, and very entertaining. Thank you! This is the best chess channel there is.
it's so cute that you have a daughter. sending you and your daughter and your wife (or gf) a wonderful day!
Would probably feel so good to troll Fischer with the King's gambit and the French Defense 😆
I greatly appreciate your comment about playing with a physical board. It feels different

One of my all time favourite, Bobby Fischer

Love the show keep em coming!!
I could find the first part Bc1, but glad I could find the final blow of the great Bobby Qb5.😊. Thanks for this video.
I always love it when agad's passion for chess radiates throughout the whole video, which is like every video.
Continue streaming Agad... Makes us appreciate more of your other videos...
"But my daughter lost interest in like 10 minutes" lmao nooooo hang in there Antonio, keep the chess board in her sight at all times if you have to! haha
I couldn't agree with you more that replaying Fischer's games on an actual board is a totally different experience. Thank you for this video.
I saved this video because of the thumbnail alone.
I second the motion to set up a physical chess board with actual pieces - as suggested by Agadmator near the end.

(I do own a copy of Bobby's 60 Memorable chess games, and have reviewed most of these games.)
As a man of culture, I always watch Agadmator videos on a board. Wooden no less, the resolution is a bit low but it just hits different.
And it was in this position, upon replaying Fischer's games on a wooden board, that it, "hits different".
For the first pause-the-video moment, I saw Bh5 immediately (as everyone did), but I thought, "Patzer sees a check!" and didn't calculate much beyond that. Instead, I buckled down and thought for a few minutes, and I came up with f4. Hooray! I'm Bobby Fischer!
Just come back from Glastonbury with a huge amount of Agadmator content to get through and I've finally caught up! :D
Bobby Fischer = automatic like.. Can't help it.
There was a really fun and instructional recent game Karocan. Hans vs Gotham. Great one worth taking a look at.
butchered that spelling Bud, lol

Love the vid but the thumbnail is a bit weird. Feels AI which I would prefer to avoid. Switching it up here & there is fine but please don’t go all out AI the thumbnails you had before are great & iconic
13:10 one of the best advices for beginners
Tks for the game ❤
Damn you. I thought of bishop check, and pawn f4 (no preference). And though to myself, let's see how I was wrong.
I remember well agadmator 2016 videos
Love the new quote 😊
Ayyy. This is the second time ive been able to solve the move! Thought it was too obvious to be correct though! Still counts 😂
I finally found what Fisher player .. but it was f4 that was not supposed to be played
At 12:05 - if R-a8, then Fischer can simply take the rook and then capture the knight on C6. Much faster win/checkmate.
Actually, Stockfish says Qa6+ is mate in 13, while Qxc6+ is only a +7 advantage. So, it's also winning, but not faster
+7 is a pretty decent advantage. I'm surprised that after Qxc6+ - there's not a forced mate in less than 13 moves?
@@frederickkrewson638 It was quite surprising for me as well. But it seems that after Qxc6+, black can block with Rb7 and holds a little longer. I mean, not much though. Being -7 down against Fischer is not exactly "holding"
LOL - Agreed - being -7 against Bobby would not hold out very long!
I found the winning move, and even the pawn capture made possible by the rook pinning the other pawn, but I definetly wouldn't be able to convert it into a win
Patted myself on the back for finding both the moves, well the first one took me longer(Bc1)
I dont know what's going on, but for the last few months, your videos don't pop up for me. Pisses me off!
Masterpiece 👏
I know Agad has a fascination for and great respect of Mikhail Tal. Agad thinks Tal was the greatest chess master of all time. I think Bobby Fisher was the greatest chess master of all time. This is one of those rare moments where both of us are right!
Wow, I found the move that Fischer didn't play. That surely means I'm grandmaster material :D
The pawn goes to g4 and then becomes a bishop and then captures on e6
Nice analization..sometime i said to bobby fisher.could you help me.which is the best move 😊..
Could you please recommend a wooden board + pieces? There are so many it's difficult to choose.
That thumbnail shows Fischer as the humpback of Notre Dame.
I found the bishop move because it was the winning move discussed in the previous position.

Probably stupid question: how is the queen check at the end “giving up the queen for the bishop”?
All I saw is when Antonio said if the Black Queen captured the white Bishop the rook on f1 would recapture

carlsen is not in fischers level
How would we watch this if it was not on a screen?😮
Well, for the last pause-the-video moment, I was so sure about my win that I would have blundered my queen.
After Kxb2 and Rfb1+, black can block with the knight.
It's always the moves back with the knight. Tricky bastards.
3yr old and lasted 10 minutes...that's pretty good.
4:32 after Nxa5 are you sacrificing the exchange to break open the position?
11:38 "nothing more to be done here" but 30. ... Nb4 keeps White's queen off a6. (Probably just delaying the inevitable.)
There will never be another Bobby Fischer. ♟♟
True, but there are better players.
It’s due the engines. Even if there’s another one, we wouldn’t recognize him as such.
Better players than him have already come
Better engine dependant maybe but not better players@@nikhildawani2913
Hey bro, which book are you reading?
Hey! I also have a three year old daughter :) We are about to go see fireworks with her for the first time, wish us luck!
we hope you daughter play in a tournament soon
No one else has the dare to admit 2024 were the early day 😂
I found bishop to H5, but to be honest, i could not calculate it why it´s the winning move, so i thought it´s not the move
6:59 feel free to pause the video moment:
I am happy I found the move Fischer did not🎉
Funny, how in my games, being up a piece doesn't necessarily mean I'll win the game. 😆
6:40 if black plays g6 after Bh5+?
Can you publish more game of mikhail tal sacrifice😂
Why have you put that emoji though
Why is Fischer AI generated?

What about P. Morphy ??!!??
7:00 Fisher used to say Pods are Caesar check, Pods are gives a check
What does that mean?
That makes no sense what exactly does it mean by ‘pod’ ? Pods are gives a check is not even proper English
@@michaelmassaro4375 Yeah that's what it sounds like but I have no idea what he said there. But Fisher said it, so I want to know what it was. Hopefully Agad can clarify.

Sir show us some rashid games please
Bro changed the title of the video like it was no big deal.
French defense is baffling for a mere chess player coz there is not a single piece attacking white king till move 12
I found correctly Bishop to h5
This is very, vey weird. I found the right move straight away, with all subsequent moves. Fischer didn't find it? I don't understand this situation.
3:05 *Classic Agadmator style:* Or you can play Kf8, something the likes of Ian Nepomniachtchi would play in 2024 😂
yay, pre-computer chess 🎉😭
Chess dawg covered this game I think last month
Hi y'all!
Why wouldn't Klaus force a queen trade with queen b4?
It was Fischer’s move at that point he had checked the king with his Bf4+ the Black king went to b7 the white Queen than went to b5 so Klaus did not get the opportunity to intercede with Qb4 challenging Fischer’s Queen and Fischer would not have had to trade at that point
Queen to a6#
