To understand how great Fisher is, keep in mind that his rating 47 years ago (!!!) was 2785! And there were no computer engines. After half a century and three decades of computer developing chess, only few top GMs have rating higher than he had in 1972! Fisher also have the highest rate of victories in the chess history - 72%, and he lost only 82 games in his official career. Fisher's secret online 8 games vs Short in 2000. are insane. He destroyed one of the best blitz players of that time with 8-0 and every game Fisher started with completely insane opening. Simply the GOAT.b

Bobby was easily the GOAT. He was crazy good at this game. It was insane how he dominated his games. This players skill was completely nuts.

The height that he reached without modern technology was awe-inspiring. A true legend of the game.

"bobby plays an absolutely brilliant move can you spot it?" My dumbass: "castle?" hahahaha

Found myself saying "Wow" after every one of these.

1. Imagine if Fischer had help on his way to become the goat 2. Imagine if Fischer was born in the era of computers 3. Imagine if Fischer was coached by someone other than books and met a proper master as a kid

Not sure I'm watching chess or wrestling or a shamwow ad but I love it!

Love where you've taken this channel and how you've added your personality to it. BOOM!

Simon Williams is simply the best chess analyzer. I'm enjoying to learn chess from him.

Fischer was an absolute genius. Too bad he went crazy.

Bobby is still my favorite. He caused a tidal wave of interest in chess in the 1960s that carries on today!

LOL -- the transition at 0:16.🤣

0:22 my favorite part!!!

All super good, but 3rd example -- Game of the Century -- certainly -- Be6 the best suprise deflection! Nice, thx.

Brilliant chess players, brilliant chess playing moves! I've been playing chess for a while, but watching this video inspired me a whole lot. I certainly have learned magic chess moves by watching this video. Keep posting fantastic chess playing strategy videos!

As a novice, I have to look at these over & over. So clever, so creative.

In the 4th example (Fischer - Myagmarsuren), I think more brilliant was moving bishop from h3 to g2 square 2 moves before this combination, making it possible to finish it like that. Qxh7 wasn't really that hard or brilliant sacrifice to see with a forced mate in 2 following. But rerouting that bishop from h3 to g2, before inching the queen in through g5, h6 and finally sac on h7 was what made this attack so brilliant. Such a subtle little (but so deadly) move in so dynamic position. One of my favorite Bobby Fischer games and a brilliant example of a King's Indian attack. I've studied this particular game multiple times through various chess books.

Simon beard is something :D

These videos are damn good and Williams explains everything really well for non master players.

The greatest sir. He dominated the era of russia in chess world back then even at young he's move was called the move of the century. He even defeated IM at the very young age. that's why many other chess player believes he's the only one who can defeat alphastock zero and stockfish.

Amazing to watch. This makes me realise just how much the greats are in a completely different league. Like Michael Jordan in basketball.

Insane stuff from Fisher. Him and Kasparov - my all time goats.

I've solved these puzzles before. Never knew they were from Bobby's games. Fantastic.

It’s an honor to watch Bobby Fischer’s moves! 🤯

Fischers 5 best moves are more impressive to me than Magnus 5 best moves. He dominated all the players of his era by an enormous margin compared to Magnus who is only slightly better than his peers. In my mind Fischer is 100% the GOAT.

Coolest moves presented by the coolest chess player (GM ginger ofc)

In my eyes Bobby Fischer was the greatest player to ever play the game

I love your fun and fan friendly informative videos thank you from Ireland here (too?!)

1:39 id play Qd1+, Kh4 and Qg4#

All of them my favourite bobby fisher bless his soul he is the greatest chess player make me play chess brilliant

The last one very diffcult to find in a real game to sacrfice a peice like that but brilliant

Very entertaining. GM Williams has a great flair for the game & is an excellent teacher.

The Qxh7 move is against which player ..??It’s wonderful!!

That knight windmill IS so explosive

Excellent videos. Thank you

If Bobby had defended his Title against Anatoly Karpov in '75, I have little doubt that he would have won and went on - not only to be the World Champion for at least 12 years - but to go down in history as THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME.

0:27 he also could have played Ne6 go trough the steps and u will see that Black will definetely lose his Queen

Sir I think it's time for you to make a video about Wesley So top moves especially that he is knocking down all top level Chess GM(even Magnus could not stop him) winning the Skilling Open & Opera Euro Rapid.

Simon is honestly so obnoxious most of the time. Like, i appreciate the video but the way he talks in these videos is just a bit too much. Im genuinely not tryring to be rude, he just kind of acts like a Dora The Explora type of character in a cartoon...Maybe it’s just the beard tho

In the last game, isn't pawn h6 and bishop g7 a sufficient defence against the white queen if black had left those pieces there? I'd like to see how that game unfolded.

the last one is the best, just simply stopping the pawn with the rook, beautiful!

what if rook takes instead of king takes

He was the best player in the history of chess

At 2:54 King to F1 - Knight to G3. At this point, why wouldn't a pawn at H2 or F2 take the Knight to defend the King? Am I missing something? Sincere question. Perhaps my understanding of the rules is worse than I thought. Is the King forced to move out of check? Can't another piece defend him?

In the first game, why take the white bishop with king and not castle?

The real killer move against Myagmarsuren is 29. Bg2!! ignoring black's threats and weaving the final mating net that causes resignation. That's the real hard-to-spot move. With all the pieces already set up, Qxh7 is relatively straightforward to calculate :D

You should do this on other great champions as well.

You didn't include the Qd7 against Robert Byrne, making Byrne resign when everyone thought Bobby was lost.

great .. many thanks mr Williams .. Rf6 is my best

My question is,why in the world did he take with the king? Why didn't he just take the bishop with the rook? 0:36

1:32 Isn't e6 more forcing? It's check and king needs to move to h4 with Qg5# afterwards.

Why bishop is taken by king, when rook is available Plz explain

GM Simon explains best moves really nicely.

Those brilliant moves seem like the type of moves that only a chess engine could find, but that was in the days before any computer could play even an average game of chess.

At 1:30 better forcing move Qd1+

This is the era of pure mind calculating unlike today players are so lazy because of Engines, If Carlsen and Fischer will have a match in the Romantic era of Chess,, Fischer would be Victorious....

Rarely one can see this type of brilliant moves.Thanks for your comments. Boby fisher is really great.

Brilliant! The pick, the video 📹, and the games of course My favorite is the last one. Stopping by the sac like parking brake

By simply comparing other top 5 moves series, Bobby Fischer is GOAT.

Gotta love smothered mate,i won 2 games today with that theme so its a good one to know.

love your videos

good of you to have put this together.. just the sort of thing to expose one's mind to while taking a break from the day's toils . thumbs up material all the way

Move of the game in 4th should be Bg2 not Qxh7. The Qxh7 move was planned but it was the Bg2 that set it up.

here, the moral of the story is you should never play as black against bobby fischer 😂😂

Just imagine if he had engines.

You look refreshed and younger even in this video Simon. I hope you are well. Thanks for the content.

If anyone's wondering, the song used at the end is called Break The Road

7:44 Rxh6 wins f5 Rg6 Qxe5 Ne4 fxe4 Bc4+

*_is it beer time YES YES ITS BEER TIME_*

While Bobby is a genius, this guy's narration makes it so much better.

In situation number one, i dont get why Reshevsky played RxF7 ? instead TxF7. Any explanation ?

Pause the video in 6:22 and kindly explain it to me why its checkmate because the queen can still move in g5

How is the white queen pinned at 2:27? What if white just ignored the black queen?

And people think the Norwegian kid who can't even beat Kasparov is the best of all time... Jesus Christ

Happy birthday legend Bobby 💓🌟

In 1st moves Why opponent don't take bishop by rook ????? No sense to take bishop by King....

0:55 hhggcvb 1:05 thanks for saying these stuff

Funny how Rf6 would be easy to find if it were taking a knight. In the actual position, it takes some true inspiration.

I guessed everything right because I just thought of what seemed the dumbest move to me and chose it. Basically just sacrifice ur queen

The second and the last one were truly amazing. If only I was this friggin clever I wouldn’t have such a low rating lol

What makes the best case for Fischer as the greatest of all time is I would never bet against him..

*Fifty years before engines*

Wow amazing lecture! Never thought Simon can do such things

why does it say in the intro that there's 32k likes and 6k dislikes out of all the numbers possible

I also Really enjoyed that rook a4 in his 2nd Game against larsen

i like your comedy style while explaining and talking.

0:37 What would happen if black takes with rook though?

Excellent.

@7:48, how does moving the knight help him? why can't black sacrifice queen for rook? of course black would lose his knight to the pawn but that'd save mate? is it a matter of too many pieces near the end?

I guessed correctly number 4

Who the fook are you?! I like you! SUBSCRIBE!

It's very sad to know that the US government couldn't handle a genius of their land Bobby Fischer.

I felt that the fourth one wasn’t too difficult to spot but the last one was incredible

Why didn’t rook take f7 in the first move?

What will happen if black take the bishop with rook in 1st move?

Imagine trying so hard and a 13 year old forces you to a small coffin smuthered

Excellent

i would buy an unlimited supply of merch with simon's drum roll face im not joking

I don’t understand the first move, why not Rf7 in responds to the bishop and move the queen away after Ke6. Then only G7 is threatened, right? I’m sure I’m missing something, would be happy if someone can fill me in.
