I thank you Mato for introducing me to Rashid Nezhmetdinov. This guy just wrote poems on the chessboard.
+briddhiman1729 Him and Mikhail Tal.
Aiman Zaki Tal didn't just make poems, he made METAL SONGS on the chessboard hahahaha
Watching a game like this makes me think again and again that chess is beyond calculations and learning the theory, it's a "fluid art" with lots of "unknown unknowns" waiting in the dark corner to later be unlocked by human bold creativity. What a game indeed.
powerful chess engines can beat any human now. so i'm guessing it's more about calculations and exploiting opponent mistakes
abdo mohamed
The mere fact of computational Supremacy that today's computers have over human beings and its manifestation in a game like chess does not reduce the inherent art and beauty that lies in this marvelous mind game just the way that the same computers still do not trivialize the art and Beauty in mathematics numbers and calculations.
+A. M. Goudarzi didn't say it wasn't a field for art and artists, but I say a calculator would beat an artist :D
That's true, in the battle of calculator-vs-artist type of chess playing, it's the machine that prevails.
1) SOME parts of chess are beyond TODAY'S calculations and theory. However as time goes on, computational algorithms will continue improve.
2) You're also assuming a false dichotomy between artists and quantitative problem solvers when it's possible for both to rely on some degree of (what most of us perceive as) "intuition".
What a game. Nobody ever will remember a 2800 "playing not to lose" game but the games like this with queen sacs and go for broke attacks, will always live on.
Hi, this is Mato...my 2.4 yrs daughter smiles and speaks this quote!!
After watching Mato's chess commentary, I am unable to watch any other chess channel's commentary.
Me too
He is top class. Talks well and slowly. Great narrator
same
39 people disliked this video. What is wrong with the world? Water is wet, gravity still works, and Mato remains the best. Maybe free will no longer exists, and someone forced them to down-vote this superb video.
Thank you for your comment
MatoJelic I really enjoy your videos! Thanks from Bulgaria :)
sometime,other youtube maker are jealous of mato's great analysis.it no doubt that mato makes the best and entertaining chess video.it short and understandable.
Maybe a little more in-depht analysis, but I agree. I really like Mato´s Videos
Locutus D'Borg Maybe their mouse slipped?
Best narrator ever!
Thank you
He's realy the best!
MatoJelic Can't the queen go to g2?
Nebojša Mickov
because then white queen to g1 and black queen gets taken anyway
Yeah I had the same question, Queen wasn't trapped I think..
"Hi , this is Mato. In this video I will show you very beautiful chess game" xD
You are the best !!
+Laodamas Dimopoulos i wish you good luck with you chess, and bye for now
Ya maga solpa myrandi
I am stunned! No wonder Tal admired him so much.
I'm rewatching this series on Nezhmetdinov. It's even better when viewed again!
No doubt, one of the best attackers ever. Rashid Nezhmetdinov is pure spectacle! One of my five favourite chessplayers.
This game is a Legend! Rashid Nezhmetdinov was phenomenal and one of the greatest attacker player of all time. He had a positive score against the Great Mikhail Tal!!! Thanks Mato to have posted one of the beautiful pages in chess history!

Artistic playing. It is great to see how Mato resists the general tendency to over commenting. Everything is clear and to the point, he doesn't stand in the way and the game shines by its own virtues.
This game was so good, had to watch it twice. Absolutely brilliant.
lol, he chased the king from g1 to a3 with all those pieces still in play! Unbelivable!
Rashid won the Russian championship 5 times and they never made him a grandmaster...I love the players with an attacking style...so fun to watch.
Because hi was muslim.
This is 20 times. ...I am more amazed each time,it's unbelievable, no other words come to mind!
Mato is the best chess instructor ever. All his lectures are very short, logical and concise.
My wife and I just became aware of the wonderful videos by Mato. Thanks for sharing. Love the commentary.
Wonderful game, wonderful commentary. Watching this is as enjoyable, if not more enjoyable than watching a battle in a good movie or playing a real time strategy game. Powerful attack, defence, flight and then devastating assault by Nezhmetdinov. Simply amazing.
Mato, I do not understand why anyone would dislike this or any other of your videos. They are both instructional and entertaining. Thank you again for doing these. Your work is extremely appreciated. - Mark
Mato’s voice is so cool and analysis is perfect 👍 no extra talking just a pure analysis 🧐
I have never seen a game of this caliber which features an En Passant Mid Tempo.
That is an incredible rarity.
Bravo
Too me this is the greatest game of chess ever played.
+Magister Ludi would you do better thank polugaevsky?
You can run the game on stockfish. Each player had 4 mistakes but the losing move for white was a blunder after the black queen was captured. Regardless, this game is insanely complicated and I bet lots of GMs would lose in white's position after the queen sac.
Rashid Neshmetdinov is a legend! He was a mentor to the legendary Mikhail Tal!
👊👊👊👏👏👏✊✊✊
Although Boris Spassky won the 29th USSR Championship in Baku 1961, the best known game in that tournament occurred in round 15 between Mikhail Tal and Rashid Nezhmetdinov. Nezhmetdinov won the brilliancy prize for this tactical masterpiece, earning the nickname “Evergreen Rashid.” Years later, Tal told a journalist that this loss was “the happiest day of my life,” due to the beauty of his opponent’s play.
Thank you Mato ..... You are a wonderful and witty humored narrator !
Goodness gracious. Non stop barrage of sledge hammer blows. Once the attack started there was no looking back. Beautiful game and excellent presentation.
Love Mato's style. Doesn't spend 20 minutes exploring every line of every move, just the critical ones. Additionally, hands down one of the coolest accents ever. Thank you Mato!
Thank you a lot for bringing to us these videos
Most beautiful video ever!!! Thanks a lot!
Thanks for bringing up this gem, love your vids
I've really fallen in love with these videos. Thank you so much!
thanks for the great matches sharing! :)
Incredible game!
Thanks for all the games you share. You are a delightful coach!
Fascinating.. Your commentary makes it even better. Great video!
another gorgeous game beautifully presented by Mato Jelic. Thank you very much.
Some brilliant chess and great commentary. Thanks for posting!
THANK U FOR SHARING, AWESOME
Great choice! I never would have known of this great game without you. Thanks!
Thank you for the wonderful commentary. Makes me want to take up the game again.
I love your commentary, you make these great games all the more interesting.
Thank you Mato. Your style and clarity make you a joy to watch/listen to.
Amazing game. Thank you for the amazing commentary. I like how you take breaks to allow us to decide how we would move.. and then follow up with the game itself. Definitely pushes the game further for me each time.
alll I can say is ... WOW. Sacrificing your queen for the win is just incredible!!
Great videos, thanks!
That was great, Mato ! Thanks for giving us multiple opportunities to come up with moves ourselves. I'm getting so much better due to your lectures!
Thank you Mat, you are the best!
Thank you for making a video on Nezhmetdinov! I love his games and your commentary really makes the ideas behind the moves clear.
Mato, great video. Love your style. I learn a lot. Thank you.
We love you MATO.
Please give us more of these fascinating Black games.
I love your videos! What a game!
Wow. Excellent analysis as usual with just the right amount of explanation for the chess enthusiasts like me who need just the main variations explained.
One of the gutsiest attacks ever! Wonderful. Double thanks for this Mato.
I love the analysis of all the games you go over, and we even get a geography lesson with each one
At 9:50 black take bishop on b2 wining the queen comes to my mind , but that's the difference between an amateur and a pro .
jqbtube You right . Since then I won a local tournament and I emprove my score on chess dot com .
White sacrificed his queen to checkmate with the rest of his attacking pieces, if he takes queen he might even still be losing.
Am back... I fell in love with chess 3 years ago and this is the first video I watched.. I thought chess was all about this game sadly I now see the other side of this beautiful masterpiece
Wow I came again
superb match! thank you! keep up the good work! greetins from a Romanian in Germany!
Thanks for the videos. they're very helpful!
Mato - your explanations on all of your demonstrations make it look so simple. A great learning tool! Thanks!
Your commentaries are great, Mato. You pick great games and you explain them really well. Thank you so much!
Fantastic video and play!
Thank you mato for your time and effort
Thanks Mato. Keep up the good work.. You are the best.
@MatoJelic you have one of the chess narrations I have ever come across. Thank you for your time & effort in bringing these classic games to life.
Hi Mato, great video and exciting commentry. What a match. Lesser players would crumble under the loss of their queen, but this shows how you can gain tempo from it, with a daring attack.
Thank you for posting these wonderful games Mato. Since I've found your site my kids and I have been playing more chess. The are 15, 10, and 5 in age. And my spouse who never plays is even trying to find the next move!

Rashid was an artist. His goal seemed not so much just to win but to create something beautiful.
