  • There was NO subject, other than Chess, about which Fischer could talk sensibly. Beyond Chess his opinions were ill-informed, naive and delusional. Actually even about Chess, after his own exit from it, he's somewhat delusional. But then in his own mind he had to believe that Chess after '72 had become just a 'memory game' so as to justify his ducking out of testing himself against the younger generation.

  • Anyone agreeing with Fischer (that chess is a game of memorization) is just plain arrogant. You could make an argument that at the 2700-2800 level, it really is mostly memorization. HOWEVER, if you're anywhere within the 1-2600 FIDE, this shouldn't even remotely concern you. For the average player, chess is not a game of memorization. So when act like a parrot and say "chess is just memory, there's no creativity or talent anymore", you're saying you're on the level of Fischer.

  • Call a spade a spade ... Fischer was a lunatic who was exceptionally good at chess. I think it's fair to surmise that the person who uploaded this video is simply a lunatic.

  • @kr3ml There's a false analogy in there- The optimal pathways to solve a rubiks cube are within the scope of the brain to memorise, and can indeed be learned. this is not true of Chess - If it were then there would be many more games where equally matched players just 'remember' their way to a theoretical draw and shake hands. this does occasionally happen of course (actually more often in the '50s than now) but the point of the game is to win so it will never happen in the majority of cases.

  • I'm sorry but Chess IS a "memory game". It's not based on processing skills but rather memorisation skills. Like solving a rubix cube, and some are faster than others. If you give a rubik's cube to someone who has never seen it before in their life and they solve it on their own without any help from outside, now THAT'S some real brainpower skills, but if you learn it from others with algorithms provided to you from the PAST mathematical equations, then that's just a joke based on memorisation.

  • @vortx100

    Yeah but nothing was sound till the end of Fischers era lol. I saw the championship games between Anand and Topolov. They opened up every game with D4 lol. Both of them. Talk about predictable.

  • @willsmackyoudown dont think topalov anand can support your point since in a few games anand varied from accepted best opening play before move 15! also saying it is boring compared to title matches of the early 1900's maybe only shows that you prefer uneven contests - Lasker was crushingly superior to all his pre ww1 challengers except Schlecter in 1910, who actually had the edge in a theoretical duel around a couple of variations of the ruy lopez. quite a modern looking match in fact!

  • @vortx100

    He's talking about the opening placement. Yes, it is indeed memorization. You can memorize hundreds of openings down to the 24+ move. Back then most GMs had to invent and figure out those moves for themselves which made for way more exciting play. That's what hes talking about. I've seen Anand vs Topolov and it was very boring compared to the title matches of the early 1900's. Karpov stated that he believed Fischer was abover himself and Kasparov. Many GMs that saw Fischer agreed.

  • @willsmackyoudown your last post made no sense whatsoever!

  • when fisher said it was a game of memorization he was speaking on his own be half.
