Classical Chess Games: Steinitz’ Brilliant Use of Files
The game is great but the commentator, i.e. Mr. "Prouss", naaahhhhh, ain't cutting it. Boring!
Awesome game 🙂
wow, incredible
Nice game! Thanks for posting.
First! and thanks for the vid!! it is very informative
"Aeeund" Makes me laugh every time.
@wwwChesscom working!
for some reason, commenting required approval on this one vid… weird, sorry about that.
one note: at the beginning i said that c6 was played bc of Kf7 Qc4+ winning c7, but black has Nd5 to block and defend c7. I realized this, but knew the video was going to be *way* too long. if black has played Kf7 there, what white does is very complicated, so i have to leave it out.
@atzalas most chess players, including ims, have favorite players. personally, i have a couple dozen 🙂 and Tal is among them.
really like this vid , unfortunately i cant think that far ahead , but its great to see amazing moves like those 🙂 !!
i loved the video it was a great game and i guessed one of those moves correctly and i felt like i was a bit of a grandmaster 🙂
@wwwChesscom oh and what do you know this was the only video of yours i am commenting on 🙁
wow
@wwwchesscom good work! As a master, didn't you saw R*e7?
yes, i can see Rxe7. glad you liked the video 🙂
@ 5:58, black can play ND5
5:53 Kf7 can be played. Qc4+ Nd5 and its even.
last
one word wow !
at 10:12, how come the black pawn doesn't just take the white knight when the knight checked the king rather than having the king move?
Spellbinding and beautiful.
