Kasparov vs Short 1993

[TK2008BEST]

not funny

[Unnoticed37]

Rybka is so powerful now that it even suggests the prawn move after a few seconds of calculation.

[joydivided23]

Best video on youtube

[fastzone24]

"...Kasparov clearly didn't expect that..." :DDD

[KillaNinja0]

omg before relising it was a skit, when short put the cup on the board i was lik 0o ??? lolz

[Llynok]

Prawn to d4. 

[carlosgoferreira]

FANTASTIC... Well done!

[kookoon]

chess ads are so funny

[PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD]

White's position suddenly is looking very cramped ^ ^

[MagoMinelli]

That cabbage was the BEST

[TheFaLSiFiCaDoR]

jajajaja who win the match??

[Ruxistico]

@TheFaLSiFiCaDoR Kasparov crushed short 7-1

[TheFaLSiFiCaDoR]

@Ruxistico Omg He,s So Fuking Strong

[FireFlower45]

Yes indeed this variation is dangerous very sharp line kasparov must be swetting! :p

[evertoamicus]

British humor. Not funny in any way

[cookiecamp]

that ironic coming from an american

[evertoamicus]

@cookiecamp Yea because you don't consume our media at all. Even your BAFTA awards are all American movies. Stings don't it?

[cookiecamp]

what has this anything to do about 'the media'? i thought we were talking about humor? i think you have a reading problem. stings doesn't it?

[evertoamicus]

@cookiecamp Holy shit dude. First off look up the word media. Second I went to your site and saw a 21 year old man playing with a finger toy. I was literally embarrassed for you. I cannot harm you any more than life already has.

[TheSapphireTiger]

hard to make a funny vid about chess but they succeeded

[IkiriRiri]

I've applied that to my OTB games and had not lost a single game since then

[MrMarson123456]

it looked like Kasparov was trying to play against the food and was playing like the pieces where acualy there

[joyfulvulture]

king prawn!

[chessguy0]

lol, the english have very funny humor

[Happy0]

hhahahah brilliant comment, mate xD

[Anuodnekh]

A very good made and funny video! Congratuations!

[noname6500]

ahh ,so thats how you beat a grandmaster.

NigelShort sure is smart

[firestartertwistedfi]

this must be extreme chess where there are no rules

[Jozaia]

so stupid, haha...

[ccinnz]

of course! i've beaten many a grandmaster with a prawn and a pair of false chattering teeth!

[sraetan]

no ¬¬

[Destroyer666AU]

[panxdaisy]

[RebelRay]

Is this a documentary or is it comedy?

[jull23]

[frodonet]

[raptriforcee]

That was awesome. :D

[imperiopaisa08]

jajajaja al comienzo crei que era real, cuando puso la taza

[Daedalus1231]

I gotta learn that opening!

[holl01]

oh god i cant breathe! the coffee mug placment left me in stitches!

[nomindbeats]

the mug was funny, but then the lettuce and ...it was too much, haha

[EpicRoze]

why did kasparov not do lobster to f4 forced mate in 8? but short mightve just went cabbage to h5 blocking the mate and winning the chomping teeth on a6, but then he'd have doubled pawns

[JoseY9112]

[godzac]

LOL SAME

[DaDude9211]

I'm sorry I must ask but... are those people really Garry and Nigel?

[Dessan01]

Lol was it an advert or something? It was footage from the series of short (no pun intended) matches between the two, for some worthless trophy - Ray Keene's company has just released the two in which Nigel short won, on DVD, at a rip-off price, for what you get.

[max31416]

Short missed a checkmate with the shrimp.

[euclidxxx]

very good!

[FanNaurto]

who is the best chess player`?

and i heard that the best lost vs a roboter, is thaqt true?

[thesepipesRclean]

fanNaruto Kasparov was the best ever to play and yes he lost to a super computer that had been programed with every one of his previous games . I think what is really interesting is that a French player who was a master , but not nearly as good as Kaparov destroyed that same computer program , beating it decisively .

[FanNaurto]

1. not naRuto :P

2. thx

ill seek for that in utube

[RussellsParadox]

Although these days, a regular ol' mid-range PC with the right software should be able to beat him, or any other human, more often than not...

[Nickthetoast]

Nice piece of vintage Rory Bremner there.

I'm not going to slag off Short- he did brilliantly to reach the World Championship match, but was never going to beat Kasparov in his prime...

[destoroy4]

hahahaha

[BobfromSydney]

This is a really well made video. I loved the 'King's Prawn' line. Hilarious!

[holl01]

haahhaahahahhaaahahah

[246trinitrotoluene]

the really funny thing, is that short needs those tactics to beat kasparov
