  • How do you respond to pawn f5 as white after your initial bishop move?

  • god i didnt even reckognize jerry when hes calm X l

  • I'm sure I'm not a talented player, still you gave me the opportunity to understand a LOT !

    Great work.

  • Awesome video that shows the difference between a humble human player and "super heavy-weight" GMIs ... It's always frightening to see how it seems "easy" to play like Fischer ... and realize u'll never be able to reach 1/20 of his genius :)

  • Very profound analysis, with nice explaination about moves. We need more like that. Great job.

  • i love detailed analysis. cheers.

  • Why not 33. Nh6+ causing double pawns?

  • Great analysis. Thanks for posting.

  • Thank you very much for this game analysis

  • Great job this is the first video I saw about chess. Very well put together.

  • @swizzthesecond Thanks. You stumbled upon one that does contain a lot of content. Nice to hear from you. :)

  • Awesome commentary

  • @iMoreAsianR Thanks! :)

  • Good one

  • Good one

  • Damn, bro; this is outstanding analysis. Please tell us a little about yourself. Are you professional or a very astute amateur player? I have not played chess in about 20 years but I used to be one of those young kids who played in high school chess team and also beat the gray-haired retired old guys at the Old Town Mall (Torrance, CA in late 1970's - early 80's) when I was only a young teenager (13 - 15).

  • Pretty well explained. Thanks. Could you please do some more Fischer games, in similar detail?

  • Great analysis, hats to you, Jerry..

  • @LynxCoding Thanks Lynx :)

  • oh tank for the sub to spanish

  • great game thanks ..

  • Correct pronunciation of pawn is identical to that of porn! This is seriously annoying me...

  • @Simangel1307 amen to that. i have done a great deal of work with disadvantaged children and chess has proven a really useful tool for improving concentration and planning through tasks.

  • @TukJohnson

    IF you want to watch the original game, go watch something else, why would you come to an analysis and ask for no analysis? there are plenty of other videos with the original game.

  • thumbs up if you went here after hearing on 48 laws of power how fischer went crying when he got beaten up by spassky!

  • Another great explanatory video. The stepwise analysis of opening procedure is both fascinating and very helpful to my game. A book on the Fischer-Spassky match gives Black's 25th move (QxP, followed by White's Bb3) as the critical error; Black should instead play ...PxP; RxP, Ba6 and only then take the other pawn.

  • cool

    

  • Ditto!!, up there with the likes of Irving Chernev

  • does someone knows what program/gui is that?

  • If i were to send you a recent game of mine, could you offer some insight into it? it was only 15 moves until i checkmated white, i've always been a casual player but i am more now trying to develope my ability in the game. Would this be a possibility? just a few quick notes

  • lol at 2:32 if your ju-jitsu fans you know black will be tapping out

  • best video..

  • Great video and very good and detailed explanation!! Thanks for the video!!

  • Yeah, what i took from this game is that i have a looong way to go if i want to be good at it... i don`t know man, for a begginer like me, watching GM`s games just makes me depressed... 

  • I like your videos and commentary! Good job!

  • Awseome casting.

    Your pedagogy is top notch.

    Keep 'em flowin'.

  • absolutely great! informative and educational for every player. two thumbs up!!

  • nice analysis of the game of two legends.. I like it. Thanks dude!

  • You have an excellent way to explain, analyse and to highlight pieces on the board. Subscribed! Thank you!

  • Great work, very lucid and thorough :-)

  • the best analyze I saw on youtube.. ;)

  • @bannnjac33 Thanks. :)

  • thanks

  • I think you've got the best commentaries and explanations of youtube :) about chess of course, thank you

  • @chivo2468 Thanks :)

  • great analysis sir...

  • @ShaDoWShah0 Thanks Shadow.

  • thx very much for your acute explanation and for your numerous variations with commentary . . i think i learned something from this video

  • I was thinking your channel isn't great... I was wrong! You rock Jerry!

  • awesome analysis and btw u have very good diction,so it's easy to understand u even for foreigners

  • @MrClosercloser Thanks Mr! :)

  • thankyou for this, I've been playing the Ruy Lopez for a while, I particularly loved the explanation of the general plan for white development...not knowing this til now is probably why I've struggled at times with the opening

  • this is therapy to me , thanks for posting

  • Great analyses of all the pins and skewers, especially in the endgame.

  • I have to agree with tuk

  • Jerry for president! Awesome explanation, even a beginner like me understand everything! :D Keep up the good work!

  • Why don't you show the game as it was played first, then apply your theories after?..Everyone plays differently!!!..Of coarse there are other variations but the focus of the video is the game between 2 masters..Not what you think should've happened?..After a minute or so, you're pretty boring..I'm sure Fischer and Spassky would feel the same!!!..

  • @TukJohnson Thanks for sharing how you and others feel. This is my format. Chessgames COM is likely your better friend.

  • @TukJohnson If you want Mr. go ahead and have your own chess video lets see if you have a sensed analysis! lol

  • and for the idiots making dumb comments, "we mock what we dont uderstand" go play tic tac toe.

  • very thourough on the lopez, although you did leave out another option of defending e4, 6.Qe2 can be played allowing d1 for your king rook, i beleive its the worral, capablanca early before he really knew much about the lopez did play 5.d3 although he knew c3 had to be played folowed then by d4. so it can be played it can also disuade a player playing a counteracking line 5...Nxe4 tarrash's favorite, other than that i cant see anyoversights great

  • dude people watch chess on youtube? stop wasting your lives!!!

  • @mrazfan09

    Stop wasting your sperm, wanker

  • it ok but I'll win the mach

  • so each country has its own opening? cause we got the spanish,french,english etc....

  • Perfect! 

  • super nice video, you should make in depth video's on main line openings like you did here in the beginning with the ruy lopez.

  • Brilliant, very clear analysis, but it was the explanation of the variations that really helped

  • @DonkeyWan :)

  • The best chess video I have ever had the pleasure of watching. First class analysis from a gifted teacher. Thank you Jerry

  • @ntrade Thank you very much. :)

  • Thorough and well presented analysis of the Ruy Lopez.

    I'm 60yo, and I wonder what my life would have been like if I would have watched this lesson, and lessons like this on various other subjects, like math, science, business, art, music, mechanics, and etc.. This is a glimpse of a revolution in education that is taking place in accelerating the evolution of the species. Cue in "Thus Spoke Zarathustra"

  • @mu99ins Thanks for taking the time to relay such a wonderful compliment. Tell a friend if you think that they too might be able to benefit from the videos I create. Pay it forward as they say. :)

  • @mu99ins So TRUE. ive been utilizing such videos and internet resources recently to further not only my intrests but my education as well. you pretty much sumed up my thoughts on the subject. 99% of everyhting known can be learned on the internet and videos like this are so valuable for gaining knowledge for a variety of subjects.

  • @ipatdragon

    Imagine the improvements when people all over the world can be taught by the 'cream" in each discipline.

    I've seen some good coaches and teachers, but they're rare. Often, they don't know the subject well enough to be teachers. I've seen children taught by the best, and they excelled. And the thing is, people should be taught early in life, when the brain is poised to absorb information.

  • nice vid.

  • @TheForzaken1 Thank you. :)

  • Great analysis. thanks.

  • This was expertly explained. I'm not much of a chess player, but I could follow all this due to your excellent commentary. Mny thanks

  • @brianj959 ;) Chess made easy!

  • Fantastic analysis!!

  • greAT ViDEO~ :d

  • bobby ficsher - my idol :D WE LOVE BOBBY~

  • this video blew my mind. bobby fisher is a genius

  • This is so helpful dude!

    Thanks a lot keep up the great work buddy!! :)

    And I like it how do you explain every idea beyond each and every single move thanks dude ! :D

  • Comment removed

  • I appreciate the video & you spending all that time to enable viewers to watch & understand the game, but as in all of your video's (from what I've seen so far) you seem to be doing more of a commentary on alternative variations as apposed to commenting on what actually happened in the game itself. You obviously know your stuff but could you not perhaps get on with what happened in the game and do seperate video's for the variations as instructionals

  • You succinctly explained the rationale of the Lopez (my favorite) that took me 3 books to understand when i first started. bravo!

  • thank you for the video

  • This is an AWESOME video. It made it really interesting with your comments and I learned alot from it. Thx!

  • I love the way you explain every move. For beginners like me it is really helpful to see the ideas behind every move.

  • nice work....thanks

  • How were you able to post over 10 min video??

  • @ArrogantJew Anyone YT member can post up to a 15 minute video.

  • @ChessNetwork Jerry is also a "director" meaning he can post longer than 15 minutes. In my opinion, Jerry is the best director since Alfred Hitchcock.

  • I appreciate your video... thanks

  • What program do you use to show the game?

  • I thank you a thousand times for your analysis of this great game play by two of the world's greatest chess players of our life time...very informative.

  • At 9:50 . If Black were to play the bishop g4. Why wouldn't white play Knight B1 to D2?

  • Am I a type of person who doesnt resigned, or give up.... not matter what!! Especially at Championship

  • Good job! Nice presentation. A fully understandable explanation of the "Ruy." Very nice, and thanks for posting...

  • the guy that comments is the best no doubt about it !!!

  • I tapped out at 1.59 ;)

  • Man, this is an absolutely great explanation of every move, even the random looking ones, and I like how you showed why they didn't make certain moves.

  • @oryxfreeride Thanks for the feedback oryx :)

  • great analysis!

  • Thanks for all these great, clear, videos!

  • The very Americans who made Bobby Fischer a fugitive are studying Bobby Fischer's world champion games.

  • isnt d4 best by test now?

  • Thanks for the great videos Jerry, I take lots of great stuff away from each one. Now if I could only remember it all. :-)

  • At 20:02 shouldn't Fischer had played Nh6+ forcing Spassky to double his pawns?

  • @dmed312 No because then the black king would be in a safer position, without the knight check, Bobby was able to get the rook on the 7th rank with check.

  • @LiiChinHo There's nothing good about check for its own sake. He would have messed up spassky's pawn structure had he played Nh6+. Granted, the game is won without the check, but that move would have been more efficient. My rating is 2135.

  • @dmed312 But it let his rook go behind the pawns.

  • @LiiChinHo Okay, you know what you put your best computer against me in this position, and I play the white pieces. I will play Nh6+, and completely win. Fischer was human. Just because he was very very good doesn't mean he always made the optimal move. He was often known for not following the normal principles in chess to affect his opponents in psychological ways.

  • @dmed312 I didn't say doing it your way would've resulted in a losing position. I only gave you a reason why Fischer might have chosen this way instead.

  • @dmed312 shouldn't you be either world champion or shutting your mouth?

  • @Stube437 I've beaten Grandmasters at chess before, and watched many of Fischers games. He's arguably one of the best ever to play the game, but still not without his human faults.

  • at 6:22 obviously the Queen can't take but you made a very amateur mistake in your analysis. kxef duh?!?!

  • @ledzeppeman kxef?

  • @ChessNetwork Yeah, kxef is the famous and rare King Double Capture

  • @ledzeppeman black queen is hanging.

  • @ledzeppeman if kxe4.. kxd4. a pawn for a queen is generally a bad idea.

    

  • in the marshall attack variation why not pawn do c5 instead of pawn to c6 ? Isnt this more aggressive  and possible to shut down the B on b3 ?

  • wow you r amazing ...............thanks buddy

    

  • the word cubby hole at 4:50 makes the bishop seem like a small baby...

  • the word cubby hole at 4:52 makes the bishop seem like a small baby...

  • I have a question. After Spassky plays d6, why isn't Fischer afraid of Bg4 before castling and thus would have played h3 before he played c3 to prevent that? This is a great video on the Ruy Lopez (C95), mad props.

  • @ravavas .....ok I think that I get it. Fischer doesn't want to lose his bishop which is going to happen if Spassky plays Na5. Playing c3 solves that potential problem.

  • This game is an excellent example of the opening,middlegame and endgame.

  • Unless there is a chess convention, it's prounounced Zug Zwang, as in Z (u as in You) g, Zw (ung as in (animal excrement) Dung)

  • 1 person likes checkers more than chess

  • looks like a textbook game!

  • Excellent video. Clearest, most interesting and easiest to follow analysis I've come across. Thank you very much!

  • Fischer is finally fighting back.P.S.This is the second Bobby Fischer game up uploaded.This is a good video.

  • The best Ruy Lopez video I have seen!! Really helped to understand what to do when the expected moved aren't made. SO a big thank you as it saves hours in boring books to get the same information and understand it.

    Couldyou do one for black Ruy Lopez please? Thanks.

  • The best Ruy Lopez I have seen!! Really helped to understand what to do when the expected moved aren't made. SO a big thank you!

    Couldyou do one for black Ruy Lopez please? Thanks.

  • I totally think the tap out analogy was great. When you say Royce do you mean Gracie? If so tell him you received a commenrt from one of his greatest fans. Also.yout chess videos are so instructive. I have been playing the Lopez for years and you opened my eyes to so much. You talk about the importance of move order and point out when a peice has done its job etc. Great Stuff

  • @xxxIronLeexxx kung fu has more to do with strikes and counters to strikes, and was created in a time where being ambushed or fighting multiple opponents was very likely. (a lot of stand up fighting techniques). Jujitsu is focused on more 1v1 play (which leads to the obvious 'ground work and armbreaks 'submissions'). You're not gonna go to the ground vs multiple opponents cause his buddy will step on your face.

    At any rate, it really doesnt bother me. Nor should it you.

  • damn...my mind cant think that far

  • Comment removed

  • great game, great commentary. just goes to show how much more i have to learn!

  • a great casting of the fischer spassky match. not only is it informative of what their intentions were but has some what ifs that are very interesting.

  • Hey Jerry, have there been any famous cases in which someone got a pawn promoted and did *not* have it be a Queen?

  • fischer vs spassky... nice

  • awesome :) please upload more bobby fischer games.........

  • Great video.. My only complaint is that perhaps for the other novices out there like myself videos like this are just too much to comprehend...

  • How do you upload 30 minute videos?

  • Hi Jerry,

    Very nice analysis, as usual, very informative.

    Thanks for the good work.

  • very informative..thanks!

  • well played from both sides :O

  • Comment removed

  • @lazimofo90 Don't want to sound pedantic, but I think you would be better off training basic tactics before looking grandmaster games.

    The knight is pinned to the queen.

  • @noxure thanks for the answer .I do train basic tactics ..I didnt even look too long at that position to be fair nor watched the whole vid.I would admit im a sh!t chess player though , yeah i need to work on my tactics.But I really dont need your advice on what to do or what to watch.

  • There must be a homo who is subscribed to you specifically to "dislike" all videos you post.

  • chess network what would happen if the b7 pawn attacks the bishop,what would be the best move from there

  • Comment removed

  • Fischer vs Spassky

    and before Kasparov vs karpov

    you really bring the best to us Jerry ^^

    thanks alot , that was fun

  • One of the best Ruy Lopez lectures I've seen.

  • nice game you showed there and really useful insight into the Ruy Lopez - I'm just getting started with chess you know ;-)

  • Jerry you did it again! I love how you explain the ideas behind the different opening variations. Being a player who frequently plays the ruy lopez i did in fact know the moves, but not all of the ideas behind it and not how to exploit some of the possible mistakes - as they did not occur in the top level games i watched. Thanks a lot!

  • Thanks =)

  • never heard of fischer

  • @TheXanthosis Then, never heard of chess? ;-)
