Killegar Chess Presents: Bobby Fischer Vs. Mikhail Tal, 1961 - part two

[OSCARA320]

WTF with the dislikes? I bet those were Tals sons

[994206]

13.47: Try R-h7

[994206]

03.14: The K pawn is covered by the Q Bishop.

[Toxie207]

0:20 ... Qa5+ doesn't win the bishop as Qc3 threatens Bc8 but ... Qxc3+ bxc3 and Black is no longer in any danger.

[Yuvaldvd]

No other chess player has done what Fischer did to world champions. His incredible attacking approach, his creativity and control of the game is absolutely outstanding!!

What an amazing player!! It doesn't get any better than this.

[AlanWattParrot]

outstanding 

[TheChessMaster1245]

ficsher is the best

[IMPaulyn]

I often make a queen sacrifice - usually after a few glasses of wine.

I really like your videos, but I think they would flow better if you would abbreviate the alternate continuations a bit. Perhaps just show the sequence of moves of those without explaining them every step of the way.

[JohnQuincyAdams1]

@varishnakov - It is important to understand the why's of given combinations, or the opportunity to learn and become a better chess player is lost.

[lawltaxcuts]

Nice Fischer's first win against Tal. Tal did kind of give it to him with the opening mistake at the beginning, but Fischer is an amazing player to drive the advantage home against Tal, one of the top 5 players in history imo.

[rat9836771834]

All this because Tal played Nf6 instead of a6.

[kouluampuja96]

calling fischer materialistic after the queen sac. really?

[YtubeUserr]

18 years old when he played this and beat the great Tal? wow!

Wow! Brilliant game from Fischer! I love it! The queen sac is fantastic

[yootoob5]

Sean: A great video, but I do not see how ...Qc7 protects the pawn on b5 tactically. If

Bxb5 Qa5+

Qc3

And then if ...Qxb5 then Qxc8+!, apparently winning a rook.

[mattbeckwith]

After Bxb5 why not Qa4?

Another concise, yet, comprehensive analysis. Thank you.

Your efficient clarification of game path options expertly illuminate the exquisite genius of Robert Fischer.

If chess players entertain heroes, Mr. Fischer was mine.

Your efforts are enjoyed, and appreciated.

[buffguy86]

thank you for this video, excellent game

[trixapete]

cant believe tal didnt resign earlier. a 1400 player could have finished that off

[BrownRook]

Great stuff like always Sean! I'd love to see you analyze some of the Candidates matches in May.

[seanthedonconsidine]

Great videos Sean, an interesting game and lovely commentary as usual.

[GarrBear314]

wow. i love watching fischer games. nothing like it. so clinical. gets an advantage and just keeps building off it beautifully, crushing any attempts at counter play every time. great analysis. the best i've seen on youtube, you should make videos more frequently!

[JohnQuincyAdams1]

@GarrBear314 - I agree with you that Sean's Killegar Chess channel is far and away the best on YouTube. Spread the word with everyone you know so we can make this not only the best chess channel on YouTube, but also the biggest! Sean deserves the recognition.

[thisisgame]

I can't believe how good Fischer was at just 18. He was a freaking chess genius.

[bibo5475]

absolutely brilliant game

[lakermangmx]

Sean at 03:22 the bishop also defends I think

[MuseseekerMan]

you really elevated my games with your vids. They're the best and are really fun to watch.

[chopinbrain]

Hey thanks for these videos. I just beat Leonard at Chess! I thought you would be happy to hear. Leonard plays chess outside the Barnes and Noble in Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia. I have lost hundreds of dollars to Leonard, but now..... I won 5 bucks!

[enginekid88]

awesome as always sean

[colourmegone]

A real treat, always like to watch a Fischer game. What do you plan to follow?

[tastybrain]

Excellent review of the game. Well done, Sean.

[ojb500]

great analysis, thankyou.

[SMCB285]

Great video, would you consider posting the chinese 2011 chess championship - Zhao Jun vs Xiu Deshun? That was a seriously amazing game, white ended up with a queen sack and still won :)



[DuendeDude]

@SMCB285 many people on YT already posted analysis on this game. Just check around.

[JohnQuincyAdams1]

@DuendeDude - Maybe so, but not with the wonderful analysis and clarity of Sean, which is why this channel is so popular. :)

[ofpfury]

Awesome analysis Sean, thanks :)

[Solonil]

how great was Fischer

[AlanWattParrot]

who could've forseen how disastrously Nf3 would turn out?

Allowing Rxa6 looked insane but i caught on the first time i replayed this to b3 when Tal declined to play Qa5; Fischer's Q impossible to dislodge. Fischer cld be forgiven for playing Bxb5 snatching a pawn as Bh5! continuations were unclear. The Q sac was a fait accompli really b/c it's connecting up those dangerously advanced pawns with the rook dropping off nTal's pieces hopelessly unco-ordinated

another fine analysis Sean, thankyou

[AlanWattParrot]

Ra7 i meant

[AlanWattParrot]

lol. Just been playing black on FICS

a2 even!! I'm not on drugs

[stopmdot]

thanks for the upload

[1Abcplayer]

Great Game, Thanks.
