When I found out that Judit Polgar wouldn't play women's only chess tournaments I immediately respected her like no other player. She doesn't care about gender, she just wants to play the strongest players... and beat them.
One of the Polgars was criticised that it was easier to play men and so they gave all the women extra rating, so out of principle she played a woman's tournament and won it just to make a point. Judit just attacks for the sake of it! No reverse gears...
In fact se beat Kasparov once in 2002. Anyway she has a very bad record against Garri: she lost 12 games and won just one. But nevertheless she's a tactical genius.
She is a great player but doesn't really compare with Carlsen and Kasparov. Make it clear when you say she beat these players. Cuz I can play someone 10000 games and win only one game then say I beat them without mentioning how many I lost and people will think I am the better player. She didn't beat any of them in the overall score. Kasparov: 1 win 12 losses Carlsen: 1 win 11 losses Anand: 10 wins 28 losses Karpov: 14 wins 21 losses
I recall Kasparov once saying something like "chess is a game in which you mentally destroy your opponent." I have a lot of respect for him for being prepared to take on extremely powerful chess computers (effectively on behalf of humanity) - there was a lot at stake.
She beat 11 world champions, had multiple wins against Karpov, and was making Kasparov rage out of the tournament room. The one and only Queen of chess.
"She beat 11 world champions, had multiple wins against Karpov, and was making Kasparov rage out of the tournament room" So? Obviously they were better than her, despite your silly attempt.
@@kensandale243 My silly attempt? At what? Obviously they were better than Judit, but at her prime, she was still competing at their level and beating them, and many other strong grandmasters. She is the first and only woman to ever qualify for the Candidates Tournament for crying out loud. Just because her opponents were strong doesn't take anything away from her skill. I think you terribly misunderstood the context of the message.
@@kensandale243 . The point is the Judit Polgar is the best female player of all time. So good, in fact, that she managed to beat world champions and remain a threat to them during her career. What part of that do you have a problem with? Do women frighten you that much?
Just a note about the last sentence in the video video description. "Regarded" does not due Judit's talent justice. She is absolutely, unequivocally, without a doubt the strongest female chess player in history. She is the only woman in the 1300 year history of the game to ever become a super grandmaster and compete exclusively on equal footing with men. What she was able to accomplish is without parallel. There is simply no one with which to compare her. Judit Polgar is easily the greatest female competitor of all time.
Absolutely! Susan's awesome! But she'd be the first to tell you that, at her strongest, Judit would have utterly annihilated any woman chess player that ever lived.
Susan Polgar was/is great for being a female, maybe amongst the 300 best players in the world when she was at her best. In no other individual sport would we argue that the #300 is great or even good, even if they beat the living daylight out of us ordinary people (and most any other active sportsman) in their respective sport :PThey are all three accomplished players, but Judith is the one female player that in reality ever competed to be world champion.
As a male player she is mine too and I would say the same for Anna Rudolf, just as one other example. It isn't just their stellar play. It is that they come as themselves, joking and laughing and speaking to me like a human being and a friend. By this humility - something we do not associate overly with male GM's - they inspire me because they do not unthinkingly or inadvertently belittle me but consciously uplift me in a way I can take personally, that I can take to heart. I hope man and woman and alike will forgive me for indulging in such a grand generalisation. Agadmator has a lot of wonderful games featuring female players, he makes a point of it, and I recommend his channel to you.
"She is one of the greatest reason why I'm proud to be a hungarian. " Mindless nationalism. P,S. Yout fellow Hungrians (intentional) tried to kill her family.
@@kirillzakharov7336 She made it to #8 at her peak in 2004. How many men in the last 100 years did better? For that matter, how many men have cracked the top 7 in the last 18 years? At least a dozen in just 18 years. Hou Yifan is a distant second to Judit among women.
I don't even think it's aggressive. I just think she's the best at finding aggressive ideas, so they come to mind. The. Best. Equal or tied with anyone else in the world.
Interestingly, I recall Judit saying her sister Sofia was actually the most talented of the Polgar sisters and she had that amazing tournament in Rome in 1989, but unfortunately she didn’t have the same passion for the game and “only” became an International Master.
Take notes people. Judit is understating her achievements out of modesty, but you must make no mistake: Judit Polgar changed the entire world of chess. Before her it was widely believed that women were, by nature, unable to compete with the best men. When she qualified for the Candidates Tournament (8-player tournament to determine the challenger for the world champion) the rules didn't formally allow for a woman to participate - simply because nobody had even considered that it could be possible. Judit had been playing mesmerizing, imaginative, BEAUTIFUL chess and everybody in the chess world wanted to see her play - *so they changed the rules for her*. She shattered the glass ceiling of chess and proved beyond any doubt that women CAN compete with (and beat) the best men in the world. Never believe people when they say you can't do something because of your gender, your age, your nationality or anything else. It takes work, of course, determination and perseverance, but you can do it. Judit worked like hell, played like a thunderstorm and faced all competition without fear, tearing down barriers and changing the world around her to allow her light to shine through the clouds. You can do anything you really put your mind to.
If you ever go over some of her more well known games she presses really hard and really aggressively sometimes conjuring up new ideas as she attacks she is one of the more interesting chess players I have ever seen.
I'm coming here from a video on lazslo's experiment on his children to prove there's nothing like innate talent but hardwork and training and right after I saw this video. Coincidence 🤯
Yeah, they did a test with current world champion Magnus Carlsen when they put some positions on the board and he was able to correctly say which games they were from, most times even the correct year it was played. And this was games stretching from the 30's to the 90's. Simply amazing. I can't even remember the first 2 moves from Sicilian Defense ;)
@@hatzikuN Stop underselling yourself and stop making a big deal out of grandmasters. Jesus Christ, it's annoying when people do that. You clearly can remember more than the first two moves from the Sicilian Defence...heck, a toddler can do that. Practice makes perfect in most cases.
Her face at 11:10 and her smile and raising her arms, just was everything for me. Made me tear up a little. So glad to see strong women represented and possibilities opening up.
''Practice, Perseverance, and Passion ...'' I will use those in my writing career. Thank you for sharing your story; we all need to be reminded once and again to push forward against the odds. Thank you.
@@ddandymann She's the only woman to break the 2700+ Elo. She peaked at 2735 which would put her in 19th place today. I wonder if there will ever be a Female world chess champion.
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 I wonder too. I read somewhere that only 1 out of 20 professional chess players (who make a living from playing chess) are female. Of course the number of girls in chess is growing fast. Because genius minds are rare, I think there are just not enough women into chess to answer this question. (I hope you understand what I mean) I like classical music very much, and I have an old book about top piano and violin soloists which was published around 1950. The author honestly believed that it is impossible for women to play the violin as good as men- and today many of the best violinists are definitely women.
@Mathilde Wesendonck Imagine how much more popular Chess would be if A Woman was the challenger in a World Championship Match. The whole world would be watching.
She is definitely and absolutely by far the greatest women player of all times. She has no comparison now, and never through history. Kudos to her and her parents, as well as her sisters. She played some historical games, her role in chess turned over all previous paradigm.
Practice, perseverance and passion! The 3 P's too successfully achieving your own personal goals, objectives or tasks. This was a brilliant story and a perfect example of how ones determination can overcome any obstacle in life...
She played some of the most beautiful games in the history of chess, games that are still a pleasure to study today ... the video gives a glimpse at the player behind these masterpieces
I'm from a country that always wants sports to be played attractively and agressively (in the good sense of the word, of course). It was during the '90s when I played chess myself. And after I replayed some games from grandmasters, I was particularly impressed by Polgar's playing style and began admiring her for it. There would be men like Kasparov who would be better on overall record, but it was Judit Polgar's style that did it for me. When I replayed some of her games from books back then, I was like: "Wow! This woman plays chess like our Dutch national team plays soccer! So full of initiative, so agressively, so offensively and directly going for the target. I wish she had become the overall world champion, but she already enchanted people with her style.
What a girl ! She and her two sisters never went to school, were home schooled by their parents. Learnt chess and challenged the men and beat most of them. She remained a top 10 player for many times and was always a respected and feared grandmaster.
I remember when I became very curious about chess, I was a young boy then I bought that chess magazine looking at the games of the grandmasters, one of them was Polgar. I thought he was male, many years have past until I discovered she was a female. Wonderful Woman. Amazing. 😊. The best.
As someone who has taught school for years, I agree with her views on the wisdom of teaching chess to children, as my dad did me. In my dream curriculum students would have at least a working knowledge of the greatest 5-7 games ever invented. I think it would be wonderful and benefit those individuals for a lifetime.
I watched her one of game against Wishwanath Anand , she had brilliant moves and finally Anand resigned. Judit Polgar is really good example for women to dominate chess with male opponents.
When i was Young i played chess at a semicompetitive level, went a couple of times to the regional Championship, got invited once to the national. I was really small, like comically small and i would often play against people much bigger than me, even if they were my age. What's funny IS that chess shows a lot about your personality and especially how you overcome obstacles, how you deal with situations. I was very agressive on the board, often going with an Evans gambit a quite fun oppening which most of the times develops into cutthroat games. I found out the same as she said, one way of dealing in chess with an intimidating adversary IS to press It as much as you can, push and punish. As i got older however i learned the other side of the Coin, play safe, strong, mantain the advantage and win a discrete victory. Chess taught me so much things, It taught me patience, persistance, resilience, the weight of consequence and time control. It's maybe the most personal Game in the world, the way you can express yourself on the board IS simply INCREADIBLE
I met Judit in 2010 in Khanty Mansisk. She’s humble, pleasant and very friendly, a feature that’s very uncharacteristic of male Grandmasters except Vishy Anand. I have pleasure of taking a picture with her.
What a wonderful human being. Promoting education skill that's benefiting everyone, regardless of religion, culture or historical background. Thank you.
This is a true feminist that I can respect: Instead of complaining about being discriminated for her gender. she honors her ambition with real devotion and focus, and produces real value - and proves herself to be even better than her male detractor. What is even more amazing (which she does not share here) - is that she did not become world champion not because she failed or gave up. It was (as I read somewhere) because she made a conscious choice to start a family and raise her children, and that would not allow her the highly demanding regime that playing chess on that level requires.
She was 28 (2004) when she reduced her commitment to chess. Had she not done so, she may have made it to world champion in part through good timing: the champions during her prime years (2000-13) were not very dominant. Before that was Kasparov and after was Carlsen--both of whom became world champions in their early twenties.
It is more about Kasparov rather then her, because he did it also in other matches. And just to be clear by cheating you mean dropping a peace for a 1 sec. Technically you can call it a cheating, but it is not something that give him any advantage at all.
@@JustRandomPerson Well that's was cheating nevertheless. The move that Kasparov did and then undid was Nc5, and that was a losing move in that position due to the answer Bc6 by Judith, But Kasparov saw that just after he dropped the piece and instantaneously retook it.
Judit Polar should be an icon for younger siblings everywhere. Was clear her parents thought her older sister would be the most talented. She proved 'em wrong!
I don’t know if it is just coincidence, but a lot of situations that she quoted actually happened in The Queens Gambit! Like she winning the 15 guys simultaneously and the Kasparov studying her game
It is, the book was written previous to Polgar's career. (And I'm sure that winning multiple games at once is common to most, if not all, famous chess players).
@@UntakenNick Most strong players occasionally give “simuls”, i.e. playing many games simultaneously against amateur players; they typically win the vast majority of games. Some notable efforts: 1. Kasparov once played six International Masters (one notch below Grandmaster) and won all of them. 2. A Grandmaster named Timur Gareev played 49 players simultaneously - without looking at any of the boards (an assistant told him the moves on each board).
You know....Judit Polgár may never have been Ranked Number 1 in the world, and she may never have been a World Champion, but in her Career she not only played, but also defeated some of the greatest Chess players of all time, many of whom were Ranked Number 1, and were World Champions (Karpov, Kasparov, Anand, Carlsen, Etc.). Now of course these defeats don’t take anything away from those magnificent players, a Chess career is obviously more that just a measure of one or two games, but it does raise an interesting philosophical question. What is the true measure of a Champion? Is it struggling everyday, moving forward inches at a time, until one finally reaches the mountain top, or is it being surrounded on all sides facing down any and every challenge no matter how daunting with courage, grit, and sheer willpower?

Yes. Ofcourse. 1)Advance Central Power Distribution Tactic- Let us take any chess distribution. For simplicity, we will keep a chess distribution which will make our calculations here. Let us assume, that white has 12 pieces. By 12 pieces,I mean; 12 pieces except the king. On white side. For simplicity,we will assume that all of those 12 pieces lie in 4 quadrants. 3 pieces for each quadrant. We are assuming 4 quadrants here,we can take any region as per our convenience. And the number of regions can vary as per our convenience too. Let us assume that in three quadrants, there are two pawns each. But in the fourth one there is one pawn. And one knight. Now, we will allot power to pieces according to any power convention which we prefer. As the "standard convention" is the most preffered, we will keep the "standard convention" as our power convention. According to this convention Pawn = 1 unit of power Bishop/Knight = 3 unit of power Rook = 5 unit of power Queen = 8 unit of power King = invaluable. So in our example, there would be 3 quadrants having 2 units of power. Each of them having 2 units of power. And the fourth quadrant having 4 units of power. So,this mathematical tool(Advanced Central Power Distribution Tatic);says that we have to consider only the pieces in the fourth quadrant. And assume that the pieces in the other 3 quadrants are not present. As this quadrant has the highest intensity of power. This mathematical tool,can be related to partial differentiation. The white will make his next move in the 4th quadrant. According to this tactic(mathematical tool). Hope it helps. - Nilay Barot
43) 3 step Analysis - 1 - We will do analysis of any given chess position(chess distribution,in mathematical contexts). In 3 steps. 1)We will assume that all of the pieces (considering both sides), are present. Except the kings and queens on both sides. And then analyze, the given chess position. 2)Then we will assume that only the kings and queen are present. Of both sides. And then analyze the chess position. 3)We will analyze the difference which we get. Between 1) and 2). And then we will assume that all the pieces are present. On both sides. And then do the analysis of the chess position. We will play our next chess move. After careful application of this mathematical tool. Hope it helps. - Nilay Barot
53) Concept of probable potential- Pawns have the ability to move diagonally. Diagonally,one square. But only when the opponent's pieces are present. They take them out and then move diagonally, one square. I call this, the probable potential of the pawn. The opponent has to take into account, the probable position. He has to take into account, probable positions of all the pawns. Of all the opponent pawns. And also of his pawns. Hope it helps. To explain the tools which I developed, would take around 500 pages to explain. I just gave you the details of three. To give due respect for your kind request. nilaybarot22@gmail.com is my email Id. Do contact me in my mail for more details. - Nilay Barot
Lucas Herique. Yes. Ofcourse. Area of Influence - 1 : All of those squares on which your pieces are there. Area of Influence 1, can be calculated for both sides. Area of Influence 3 - All of those squares, which are fully controlled by you. But on which your pieces are not there. Area of Influence - 4: All of those squares, which are jointly controlled. By both sides. But on which your pieces are not there. Area of Influence 5 : All of those squares which are fully controlled. Also on which your pieces are there. Area of Influence 6 : All of those squares which are jointly controlled. Jointly controlled by both sides. Also on which your pieces are there. Area of Influence 2 : Area of Influence 3 + Area of Influence 4 + Area of Influence 5 + Area of Influence 6 = Area of Influence 2. The greater the area of Influence 2, the greater you are control of the game. Actually, this mathematical tool needs further development. Empty squares - All of those squares, which do not belong to area of Influence 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 of both sides. Area of Influence 2,3,4,5 and 6 can be calculated separately for both the sides. Some of my mathematical tools are like statistical tools. They work good only in certain conditions. - Nilay Barot
Judit, you had a very difficult audience... but, you made me laugh a lot with you, gave me such joy and I loved to see such a wholesome woman, who simultaniously still is greatest female chess player of all times. Much love and adoration to you🫶
A preposterous claim. She is the best female player ever by far and a great ambassador for the game, but no one with any knowledge of the game would put her even in the top 20 overall.
Why chess is difficult for average players? The total number of chess positions, are around 10^(120). Some estimates put it, to 10^(40) though. But still, even that's a very large number. The problem is 1)the vastness of the number, of total chess positions. 2)Add to that, the complications of chess positions. 3)Calculating the best possible variation, makes it even more difficult. Let us discuss, only (1)here. Because even, this would make us feel a bit small. Average income an Indian earns - the numbers which we are regularly dealing with, are in the order of 10^(5) magnitude. Light Bill's(10^(3)), gas Bills(10^(3)), school and tuition fees (10^(5) or 10^(6)). Cars and vehicles, may go till 10^(6). Residential properties go up 10^(7). But not more than that. Even while we discuss those financial scams, they never go beyond 10^(12). Well, it is good here. That they actually don't go much further. Just joking. India's total government expenditure is in the order of 10^(14). Total value of world economy doesn't exceeds 10^(18)(not completely sure about this one, though). Distance traveled while traveling by international flights, never go beyond 10^(4)kilometers or 10^(7) metres(in magnitude). The memory storage capacity of good computers, is of around 10^(13) bits(of around 1000 G.B.). As we can, see. The inference, we get. After the good analysis, which we have done. Don't get demotivated chess players, though. Every one of you, is more or less at the same level. Hope it helps you. You will get motivated here, after getting demotivated. Well, that's all. - Nilay Barot
Fischer is the legend of chess. No wonder he said that. my dream matches that couldn't come true..... Fischer vs Kasparov, Fischer vs Polgar, Fischer vs Carlsen .... just imagine the tsunami on chess board...
Judit Pólgar should not be remembered as the strongest woman chess player. She should be remembered as one of the strongest chess players ever - period.
Let's not kid ourselves here: if she was a man, no one would remember her achievements as much. Sure she was great, but not "contender for the world title - great" or "winning tournament after tournament - great". Maybe somewhat comparable to Morozevich, he was great too, but no one would think he's one of the greatest ever. The fact people somehow rate her higher is just because she's a woman. Don't even try to deny it, you know it's true.
There are more points on a one inch line segment than the number of all the possible chess positions to the power of the number of all atoms in the universe.
There are exactly as many points on a one inch line segment as combinations for both are infinite, and both infinities exceed the finite number of atoms in the universe.
Got introduced to this legend after seeing her on samay and sagar's stream... I'm glad I got to know her... There's so much I could learn from her ❤️❤️❤️
I wish that i played chess at early age. I played my first game at 15/16 and then never played and now i am 20 years old and it's been 3 months since i have been playing chess and i can see a lot of improvement in myself. I have played around 600 games in 3 month and i am loving it. The main part is the happiness when you are crushing your opponent and the sadness when they are winning.
her games are more of an inspiration to anyone playing chess than dozens of super GMs playing "solid lines" and "correct moves". playing on the highest level and still is FUN to watch! oh and btw... kasparov DID touch that knight of course! :P
When I found out that Judit Polgar wouldn't play women's only chess tournaments I immediately respected her like no other player. She doesn't care about gender, she just wants to play the strongest players... and beat them.

that's very cool.

Pretty well.
She beat Anand, Carlsen, Karpov and had a very good game with Kasparov, She's not a regular champion, she is one of the best players ever
In fact se beat Kasparov once in 2002. Anyway she has a very bad record against Garri: she lost 12 games and won just one. But nevertheless she's a tactical genius.
@@echever7424 Adding more wood to the fire, people remember the famous "adjust" by Garri.
@Mike Jones she was top ten in elo for a very limited time in her life. and she was the only woman who ever achieved that.
She is a great player but doesn't really compare with Carlsen and Kasparov.
Make it clear when you say she beat these players. Cuz I can play someone 10000 games and win only one game then say I beat them without mentioning how many I lost and people will think I am the better player. She didn't beat any of them in the overall score.
Kasparov: 1 win 12 losses
Carlsen: 1 win 11 losses
Anand: 10 wins 28 losses
Karpov: 14 wins 21 losses
if you compare it with other women, yes she is is one of the best if not the best but in absolute she is not, with numbers, but who cares about that.
"If to play like a girl meant anything in chess. It would mean relentless aggression". Kasparov.
That is an reference to Polgár :P

He is the king of double meaning quotes.

Brian H. Stastny always a douchebag who has to shoehorn his own two bullshit political cents into any topic.
@KV yes!! i could not agree more.
As a female chess player, Judit is my inspiration to improve and stick with chess. I admire her a lot!!
As a male player she is mine too and I would say the same for Anna Rudolf, just as one other example. It isn't just their stellar play. It is that they come as themselves, joking and laughing and speaking to me like a human being and a friend. By this humility - something we do not associate overly with male GM's - they inspire me because they do not unthinkingly or inadvertently belittle me but consciously uplift me in a way I can take personally, that I can take to heart. I hope man and woman and alike will forgive me for indulging in such a grand generalisation. Agadmator has a lot of wonderful games featuring female players, he makes a point of it, and I recommend his channel to you.
She a good role model. She comes across as charming, likable and decent.
What chess got to do with gender?
Want to play a game? I am a tournament player as well :)

Judit is not an incredible female chess player. She's an *incredible chess player*. Period.
She is the only female chess player who could possibly be called "incredible." Of course, dozens of men in the last 100 years were better than her.
FACTS. LET PEOPLE CRY. BASEED. FUCGERS.
@@kreek22 Pia Cramling
@@kreek22 dozens? that's a bit of a stretch. Also, don't forget Hou Yifan from China
@@kirillzakharov7336 She made it to #8 at her peak in 2004. How many men in the last 100 years did better? For that matter, how many men have cracked the top 7 in the last 18 years? At least a dozen in just 18 years. Hou Yifan is a distant second to Judit among women.
To play as aggressively as Polgar did against GMs, takes alot of guts and confidence.
yes, almost reminds me of Kasparovs agressive games
I don't even think it's aggressive. I just think she's the best at finding aggressive ideas, so they come to mind. The. Best. Equal or tied with anyone else in the world.
Interestingly, I recall Judit saying her sister Sofia was actually the most talented of the Polgar sisters and she had that amazing tournament in Rome in 1989, but unfortunately she didn’t have the same passion for the game and “only” became an International Master.
Sofia Polgar's performance in Rome was rated more than 2900. One of the strongest performances ever man or woman.
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 the infamous "Sack of Rome".
Sofia Polgar had 11 GM norms. Sofia Polgar was kept from becoming a GM just because she was a woman.

There was a big compliment by Nigel Short: "Judit smells mate 20 moves ahead!" :D
Not at all! Look up the head-to-head between Judit Polgar and Nigel Short! Then you'd put NO comma at all in Short's sentence! :P
@Guillaume Huet He got a bit humiliated when she beat him, but in fairness nearly all of us would have got beat, there's no shame in it.
"Judit smells mate 20, moves ahead"
That's nice considering Short is a misogynist
Take notes people. Judit is understating her achievements out of modesty, but you must make no mistake: Judit Polgar changed the entire world of chess. Before her it was widely believed that women were, by nature, unable to compete with the best men. When she qualified for the Candidates Tournament (8-player tournament to determine the challenger for the world champion) the rules didn't formally allow for a woman to participate - simply because nobody had even considered that it could be possible. Judit had been playing mesmerizing, imaginative, BEAUTIFUL chess and everybody in the chess world wanted to see her play - *so they changed the rules for her*. She shattered the glass ceiling of chess and proved beyond any doubt that women CAN compete with (and beat) the best men in the world. Never believe people when they say you can't do something because of your gender, your age, your nationality or anything else. It takes work, of course, determination and perseverance, but you can do it. Judit worked like hell, played like a thunderstorm and faced all competition without fear, tearing down barriers and changing the world around her to allow her light to shine through the clouds. You can do anything you really put your mind to.
The exception confirms the rule
If you ever go over some of her more well known games she presses really hard and really aggressively sometimes conjuring up new ideas as she attacks she is one of the more interesting chess players I have ever seen.
True
You are right Beethoven.
I'm coming here from a video on lazslo's experiment on his children to prove there's nothing like innate talent but hardwork and training and right after I saw this video. Coincidence 🤯

WHAT A POSITIVE ROLE MODEL FOR YOUNG WOMEN OF ALL COUNTRIES ALL OVER THE WORLD. SUCH A WONDERFULL LADY.
FOR YOUNG PEOPLE SHUT UP
*wonderful
I can't even remember what I did last week. And these great chess players can remember a game and the position the pieces. Unbelievable.
Yeah, they did a test with current world champion Magnus Carlsen when they put some positions on the board and he was able to correctly say which games they were from, most times even the correct year it was played. And this was games stretching from the 30's to the 90's. Simply amazing. I can't even remember the first 2 moves from Sicilian Defense ;)
Practice makes perfect
@@hatzikuN Stop underselling yourself and stop making a big deal out of grandmasters. Jesus Christ, it's annoying when people do that. You clearly can remember more than the first two moves from the Sicilian Defence...heck, a toddler can do that. Practice makes perfect in most cases.
She is such an inspiration!
She is, for sure.
She made what no one had even imagined possible in that age, she is amazing!!
Her face at 11:10 and her smile and raising her arms, just was everything for me. Made me tear up a little. So glad to see strong women represented and possibilities opening up.
as mato jelic said of Judith polgar - she's so aggressive that randomly she attacks anyone on the street :p she's so cool!
Mato = best chess commentator ever :D
she's the ultimate woman chess player, i just wonder how would Sofia have fared had she kept on playing.
''Practice, Perseverance, and Passion ...'' I will use those in my writing career. Thank you for sharing your story; we all need to be reminded once and again to push forward against the odds. Thank you.
She is/was a Chess BEAST. Her aggressive tactical prowess was magnificent. I believe at her apex, she was rated #6 in the world.
8 was her highest ranking

She defeated Topalov, Karpov, Kasparov, Vishy, and Carlsen. She basically rules the world.
Karpov and Kasparov both have a winning head to head vs Judit.
@@jeffreykaufmann2867 Yet both still consider her a worthy and dangerous opponent while they look down on the majority of GM's.

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 I wonder too. I read somewhere that only 1 out of 20 professional chess players (who make a living from playing chess) are female. Of course the number of girls in chess is growing fast. Because genius minds are rare, I think there are just not enough women into chess to answer this question.
(I hope you understand what I mean)
I like classical music very much, and I have an old book about top piano and violin soloists which was published around 1950. The author honestly believed that it is impossible for women to play the violin as good as men- and today many of the best violinists are definitely women.
@Mathilde Wesendonck Imagine how much more popular Chess would be if A Woman was the challenger in a World Championship Match. The whole world would be watching.
She is definitely and absolutely by far the greatest women player of all times. She has no comparison now, and never through history. Kudos to her and her parents, as well as her sisters. She played some historical games, her role in chess turned over all previous paradigm.
Practice, perseverance and passion! The 3 P's too successfully achieving your own personal goals, objectives or tasks. This was a brilliant story and a perfect example of how ones determination can overcome any obstacle in life...
Wow. I'm glad she did this talk. I've been curious about her for a while.
Judit is a legend .
that woman is a legend, my god isn't she incredible at the chessboard.
and also, she seems like an unbelievably friendly and warm person. how sweet.
Judit Polgar, the female Mikhail Tal. Great sacrifices, beautiful combinations and absolutely merciless in their hunt for the King.
She played some of the most beautiful games in the history of chess, games that are still a pleasure to study today ... the video gives a glimpse at the player behind these masterpieces
When Kasparov puts down his jacket.
His mind: blyat!
Hahahaahaha
I really liked Judit from the moment I started learning about the chess world. Now, after watching this video I absolutely LOVE her
I'm from a country that always wants sports to be played attractively and agressively (in the good sense of the word, of course). It was during the '90s when I played chess myself. And after I replayed some games from grandmasters, I was particularly impressed by Polgar's playing style and began admiring her for it. There would be men like Kasparov who would be better on overall record, but it was Judit Polgar's style that did it for me. When I replayed some of her games from books back then, I was like: "Wow! This woman plays chess like our Dutch national team plays soccer! So full of initiative, so agressively, so offensively and directly going for the target. I wish she had become the overall world champion, but she already enchanted people with her style.
What a girl ! She and her two sisters never went to school, were home schooled by their parents. Learnt chess and challenged the men and beat most of them. She remained a top 10 player for many times and was always a respected and feared grandmaster.
I absolutely agree that chess should be in all schools. It's not just a game. It also teaches logic.
"Dream big, make good moves in life, set your goals high and reach the impossible." 11:05 👏
"Practice, perseverance and passion" key elements of success.
I remember when I became very curious about chess, I was a young boy then I bought that chess magazine looking at the games of the grandmasters, one of them was Polgar. I thought he was male, many years have past until I discovered she was a female. Wonderful Woman. Amazing. 😊. The best.
Judit egy nagyszeru ember. Gratulalok az apukajanak ehhez Polgar Lacibacsinak is. Bizonyitotta az igazat!!
Judit Sakkpalota programja is zseniális. 🙂
Bravo Judit Polgar! Watching from Kenya in mid- 2019!
hadi wewe?😃👌
As someone who has taught school for years, I agree with her views on the wisdom of teaching chess to children, as my dad did me. In my dream curriculum students would have at least a working knowledge of the greatest 5-7 games ever invented. I think it would be wonderful and benefit those individuals for a lifetime.
I watched her one of game against Wishwanath Anand , she had brilliant moves and finally Anand resigned. Judit Polgar is really good example for women to dominate chess with male opponents.
You may not play chess like Judit Polgar but you can definitely be as humble as Judit Polgar.
2:25 Qg8+ Rxg8 Nf7 is smothered mate wow
Was looking for this comment
Beau LeCoq, Agreed.
It's easy
not certainly. But she surely meant it
When i was Young i played chess at a semicompetitive level, went a couple of times to the regional Championship, got invited once to the national. I was really small, like comically small and i would often play against people much bigger than me, even if they were my age. What's funny IS that chess shows a lot about your personality and especially how you overcome obstacles, how you deal with situations. I was very agressive on the board, often going with an Evans gambit a quite fun oppening which most of the times develops into cutthroat games. I found out the same as she said, one way of dealing in chess with an intimidating adversary IS to press It as much as you can, push and punish. As i got older however i learned the other side of the Coin, play safe, strong, mantain the advantage and win a discrete victory. Chess taught me so much things, It taught me patience, persistance, resilience, the weight of consequence and time control. It's maybe the most personal Game in the world, the way you can express yourself on the board IS simply INCREADIBLE
I met Judit in 2010 in Khanty Mansisk. She’s humble, pleasant and very friendly, a feature that’s very uncharacteristic of male Grandmasters except Vishy Anand. I have pleasure of taking a picture with her.
Did you detect any humbleness in this Ted talk?
She is a living legend. So much respect to her.
What a wonderful human being. Promoting education skill that's benefiting everyone, regardless of religion, culture or historical background. Thank you.
For me Chess is as much art as sports. Her style makes her one of the goat.not only her strenght.
Crazy, I saw a video talking about her 2 days ago...
Great work.
Watching this video after I watched Agadmator's video of Judith Pulgar defeating Vishy Anand.....
One of the greatest Chess players of all time!!! Very aggressive and criative. Love watching her matches.
I think any young lady who comes across this video will take something very important with them.
whats amazing is that even the example where she gives blindfolded checkmate ....is a real smothered MATE!!!
She has a very sweet personality and an amazing laugh ♥♥
This is a true feminist that I can respect: Instead of complaining about being discriminated for her gender. she honors her ambition with real devotion and focus, and produces real value - and proves herself to be even better than her male detractor.
What is even more amazing (which she does not share here) - is that she did not become world champion not because she failed or gave up. It was (as I read somewhere) because she made a conscious choice to start a family and raise her children, and that would not allow her the highly demanding regime that playing chess on that level requires.
THIS. Most feminists are just likes to be spoiled a lot
She was 28 (2004) when she reduced her commitment to chess. Had she not done so, she may have made it to world champion in part through good timing: the champions during her prime years (2000-13) were not very dominant. Before that was Kasparov and after was Carlsen--both of whom became world champions in their early twenties.
Loved this Talk.... she has a real message for women.
The emcee did not fail to grab the opportunity with this golden time with Polgar. Thank you, thank you!
So true.. Chess is already a subject in Armenian schools... That's really impacting the way peopel think
A true & living inspiration.
She's amazing, and deserves every bit of praise that gets thrown her way.
Judit is so freaking great... her chess game is unreal..
The person at the end was awesome. He made me watch the video like another 50 times..
The double bishop sacrifice, an amazing game to analyze by any chess player looking to learn the great game.

This is a marvelous talk about chess and life -- everyone who loves chess should watch.
I love chess, Judit is a legend.
Speaking of best female chess players ever, I can't force myself not to mention that Leela Chess Zero is typically anthropomorphized as a female.
you made Kasparov cheat in one of his games
she made him cheat thats how strong she is
It is more about Kasparov rather then her, because he did it also in other matches. And just to be clear by cheating you mean dropping a peace for a 1 sec. Technically you can call it a cheating, but it is not something that give him any advantage at all.
@@JustRandomPerson Well that's was cheating nevertheless. The move that Kasparov did and then undid was Nc5, and that was a losing move in that position due to the answer Bc6 by Judith, But Kasparov saw that just after he dropped the piece and instantaneously retook it.
@@echever7424 he has done that in other games too lol
@@darkghoul4049 that doesn't mean it's a normal thing lol
well, Kasparov is much stronger than her regardles, but yes making him "cheat" was a minor victory
Judit Polar should be an icon for younger siblings everywhere. Was clear her parents thought her older sister would be the most talented. She proved 'em wrong!
She is so adorable, such a charisma. ;D
I absolutely adore Judit Polgar and she is my only inspiration for playing chess.
I don’t know if it is just coincidence, but a lot of situations that she quoted actually happened in The Queens Gambit! Like she winning the 15 guys simultaneously and the Kasparov studying her game
It is, the book was written previous to Polgar's career. (And I'm sure that winning multiple games at once is common to most, if not all, famous chess players).
@@UntakenNick oh that’s cool! I didn’t know
@@UntakenNick Most strong players occasionally give “simuls”, i.e. playing many games simultaneously against amateur players; they typically win the vast majority of games. Some notable efforts:
1. Kasparov once played six International Masters (one notch below Grandmaster) and won all of them. 2. A Grandmaster named Timur Gareev played 49 players simultaneously - without looking at any of the boards (an assistant told him the moves on each board).
she looks like an ordinary sweet mom who would totally screw you up in a serious chess game
Crushing your opponents can sure make you happy and eternally jolly and laughing. :P Jokes aside, she & her sisters are a great inspiration.
Having a photographic memory helps I imagine
She is youngest of polger sisters.
You know....Judit Polgár may never have been Ranked Number 1 in the world, and she may never have been a World Champion, but in her Career she not only played, but also defeated some of the greatest Chess players of all time, many of whom were Ranked Number 1, and were World Champions (Karpov, Kasparov, Anand, Carlsen, Etc.). Now of course these defeats don’t take anything away from those magnificent players, a Chess career is obviously more that just a measure of one or two games, but it does raise an interesting philosophical question. What is the true measure of a Champion? Is it struggling everyday, moving forward inches at a time, until one finally reaches the mountain top, or is it being surrounded on all sides facing down any and every challenge no matter how daunting with courage, grit, and sheer willpower?
A very brave heart? ❤

Yes. Ofcourse.
1)Advance Central Power Distribution Tactic-
Let us take any chess distribution. For simplicity, we will keep a chess distribution which will make our calculations here. Let us assume, that white has 12 pieces. By 12 pieces,I mean; 12 pieces except the king. On white side. For simplicity,we will assume that all of those 12 pieces lie in 4 quadrants. 3 pieces for each quadrant. We are assuming 4 quadrants here,we can take any region as per our convenience. And the number of regions can vary as per our convenience too.
Let us assume that in three quadrants, there are two pawns each. But in the fourth one there is one pawn. And one knight. Now, we will allot power to pieces according to any power convention which we prefer. As the "standard convention" is the most preffered, we will keep the "standard convention" as our power convention. According to this convention
Pawn = 1 unit of power
Bishop/Knight = 3 unit of power
Rook = 5 unit of power
Queen = 8 unit of power
King = invaluable.
So in our example, there would be 3 quadrants having 2 units of power. Each of them having 2 units of power. And the fourth quadrant having 4 units of power. So,this mathematical tool(Advanced Central Power Distribution Tatic);says that we have to consider only the pieces in the fourth quadrant. And assume that the pieces in the other 3 quadrants are not present. As this quadrant has the highest intensity of power. This mathematical tool,can be related to partial differentiation.
The white will make his next move in the 4th quadrant. According to this tactic(mathematical tool).
Hope it helps.
- Nilay Barot
43) 3 step Analysis - 1 - We will do analysis of any given chess position(chess distribution,in mathematical contexts). In 3 steps.
1)We will assume that all of the pieces (considering both sides), are present. Except the kings and queens on both sides. And then analyze, the given chess position.
2)Then we will assume that only the kings and queen are present. Of both sides. And then analyze the chess position.
3)We will analyze the difference which we get. Between 1) and 2). And then we will assume that all the pieces are present. On both sides. And then do the analysis of the chess position.
We will play our next chess move. After careful application of this mathematical tool. Hope it helps.
- Nilay Barot
53) Concept of probable potential- Pawns have the ability to move diagonally. Diagonally,one square. But only when the opponent's pieces are present. They take them out and then move diagonally, one square. I call this, the probable potential of the pawn. The opponent has to take into account, the probable position. He has to take into account, probable positions of all the pawns. Of all the opponent pawns. And also of his pawns. Hope it helps. To explain the tools which I developed, would take around 500 pages to explain. I just gave you the details of three. To give due respect for your kind request. nilaybarot22@gmail.com is my email Id. Do contact me in my mail for more details.
- Nilay Barot
And ofcourse. You can call me on TED. - Nilay Batot
Lucas Herique. Yes. Ofcourse.
Area of Influence - 1 : All of those squares on which your pieces are there. Area of Influence 1, can be calculated for both sides.
Area of Influence 3 - All of those squares, which are fully controlled by you. But on which your pieces are not there.
Area of Influence - 4: All of those squares, which are jointly controlled. By both sides. But on which your pieces are not there.
Area of Influence 5 : All of those squares which are fully controlled. Also on which your pieces are there.
Area of Influence 6 : All of those squares which are jointly controlled. Jointly controlled by both sides. Also on which your pieces are there.
Area of Influence 2 : Area of Influence 3 + Area of Influence 4 + Area of Influence 5 + Area of Influence 6 = Area of Influence 2. The greater the area of Influence 2, the greater you are control of the game. Actually, this mathematical tool needs further development.
Empty squares - All of those squares, which do not belong to area of Influence 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 of both sides. Area of Influence 2,3,4,5 and 6 can be calculated separately for both the sides.
Some of my mathematical tools are like statistical tools. They work good only in certain conditions.

Many tnx for the upload, 👍🇭🇺
Judit, you had a very difficult audience... but, you made me laugh a lot with you, gave me such joy and I loved to see such a wholesome woman, who simultaniously still is greatest female chess player of all times. Much love and adoration to you🫶
She might be the greatest chess player of all time.
Ahhhh, no. But she's a genius anyway.
A preposterous claim. She is the best female player ever by far and a great ambassador for the game, but no one with any knowledge of the game would put her even in the top 20 overall.
Why chess is difficult for average players?
The total number of chess positions, are around 10^(120). Some estimates put it, to 10^(40) though. But still, even that's a very large number. The problem is
1)the vastness of the number, of total chess positions.
2)Add to that, the complications of chess positions.
3)Calculating the best possible variation, makes it even more difficult.
Let us discuss, only (1)here. Because even, this would make us feel a bit small.
Average income an Indian earns - the numbers which we are regularly dealing with, are in the order of 10^(5) magnitude. Light Bill's(10^(3)), gas Bills(10^(3)), school and tuition fees (10^(5) or 10^(6)). Cars and vehicles, may go till 10^(6). Residential properties go up 10^(7). But not more than that.
Even while we discuss those financial scams, they never go beyond 10^(12). Well, it is good here. That they actually don't go much further. Just joking. India's total government expenditure is in the order of 10^(14). Total value of world economy doesn't exceeds 10^(18)(not completely sure about this one, though).
Distance traveled while traveling by international flights, never go beyond 10^(4)kilometers or 10^(7) metres(in magnitude). The memory storage capacity of good computers, is of around 10^(13) bits(of around 1000 G.B.). As we can, see. The inference, we get. After the good
analysis, which we have done.
Don't get demotivated chess players, though. Every one of you, is more or less at the same level. Hope it helps you. You will get motivated here, after getting demotivated.
Well, that's all.

Fischer is the legend of chess. No wonder he said that. my dream matches that couldn't come true..... Fischer vs Kasparov, Fischer vs Polgar, Fischer vs Carlsen .... just imagine the tsunami on chess board...
vivek tamma fischer vs karpov😢
Karpov-kasparov matches were legendary. Fischer said that the those matches were premeditated which speaks volumes about their quality.
Actually the reason why Fischer vs. Polgár didn’t happen is because, according to Fischer “She was Jewish”.
Fisher vs. Stockfish. Alas.
No wonder he said that? Wtf
Judit Pólgar should not be remembered as the strongest woman chess player. She should be remembered as one of the strongest chess players ever - period.
Let's not kid ourselves here: if she was a man, no one would remember her achievements as much.
Sure she was great, but not "contender for the world title - great" or "winning tournament after tournament - great". Maybe somewhat comparable to Morozevich, he was great too, but no one would think he's one of the greatest ever. The fact people somehow rate her higher is just because she's a woman. Don't even try to deny it, you know it's true.
Interesting that her and Hikaru were both the second sidings to take up chess with something to prove.
Amazing achievement for her to become GM. Male dominated sport broke open. She is legend.
Inspiring talks by the Chess Queen Judit.
There are more points on a one inch line segment than the number of all the possible chess positions to the power of the number of all atoms in the universe.
There are exactly as many points on a one inch line segment as combinations for both are infinite, and both infinities exceed the finite number of atoms in the universe.
amateurish job from tedx they should have an electronic board on the screen. anyway, great admiration for the polgar sisters and their achievements
Got introduced to this legend after seeing her on samay and sagar's stream... I'm glad I got to know her... There's so much I could learn from her ❤️❤️❤️
It came in my recommendation after she comes on samay's stream.
Goda is respectable animal
Of all the chess players ever, Judit is my biggest inspiration. Way to go Judit, you are a masterpiece!
I am a former KGB officer but I cannot play chess well enough to win an ordinary GM
I wish that i played chess at early age. I played my first game at 15/16 and then never played and now i am 20 years old and it's been 3 months since i have been playing chess and i can see a lot of improvement in myself. I have played around 600 games in 3 month and i am loving it. The main part is the happiness when you are crushing your opponent and the sadness when they are winning.
3:51 this is wholesome 💕☺️
2:25 she does smothered mate while talking about blindfold chess. What a legend :D
her games are more of an inspiration to anyone playing chess than dozens of super GMs playing "solid lines" and "correct moves". playing on the highest level and still is FUN to watch!
oh and btw... kasparov DID touch that knight of course! :P
