Follow MprooV on Twitter / mproovapp #agadmator The story is that Bobby Fischer sometimes logs on to the Internet Chess Club (ICC) as a guest and plays an incredible series of blitz games against random opponents. The pattern is always the same: "Fischer", who does not have an ICC handle, will make contact either directly or through a third person and then play a series of very fast blitz games ("bullet chess"), using preposterous openings and whipping the living daylights out of his opponents. They are sworn to secrecy, so the games are seldom published. Only the stories of the apparition, of the bone-chilling encounter with the ephemeral chess legend remains.

Fischer stated himself he hated chess because of the theory... he said it was a better game when people got creative and were battling with intellect not memorization.

@seanwintersax 5 лет назад

Which can only be done when you have the highest level of fundamentals down, which includes a massive amount of memorization. Take your average 'good' casual player maybe 1500-1600. They would never put themselves in this position. Black actually dropped a move in this game. If it was not blitz I bet you 1,000 dollars that Fischer never under any circumstances would play this opening. Speed chess is flawed because it relies on memorization so much. That is why Fischer would dominate. Change the flow of the game and I bet you dollars to donuts so would he.

i very much agree with fischer. i was one of those self-taught "promising kids" but burned out and quit when i was being transitioned from casual ranked play to professional coaching and started being taught theory. i had zero desire to learn theory and memorize the names of openings and positions and sequences, i just wanted to play chess. the pandora's box being opened for me showing me that chess is mostly just memorizing strong positions and trying to manipulate the field to get one of those pretty much killed any desire i had to keep going. chess turned from a fun game into another school and i hated school and played chess to escape school and homework.

@nigelmoyse 3 года назад

A not so well known fact is that Fischer participated in Herceg Novi in 1970, which went down in history as a kind of unofficial early Blitz World Championship. There were three ex world champions and two world title contenders (Kortchnoi and Bronstein) in a total field of 12 players. Each player had five minutes for the whole game, the usual time-limit for blitz before the introduction of electronic clocks. As the World Champion Boris Spassky wasn't there, many saw Tigran Petrosian, Spassky's predecessor as favourite. Tal and Viktor Kortchnoi were also strong blitz-players. Bobby Fischer, at that time the number one in the world, was not known as a particularly strong blitz player - until then. Fischer won with a margin of 4.5 points over Tal (who 18 years later won the world blitz championship, so you couldn't argue that he was past his peak)! Fischer's score in Herceg Novi was 19/24 and he only lost once - to Kortchnoi. According to contemporary reports, Fischer never used more than 2.5 minutes of his time in any game and outclassed the five Soviet grandmasters with 8.5-1.5. Fischer defeated Smyslov, Tal and Petrosian 2-0 each. So I think it was probably Fischer who beat Short. Thank you for your great channel and please show the other games!

Nigel Short at that time was about 2687 elo rating and strongest engine at that time was fritz with about 2640elo.

@Chloe-us6fi 3 года назад

This opening was genius back then for Fischer. They didn't have engines for the ability to analyze every opening, so chess players would memorize the most popular openings back then and go on autopilot for the first moves. Fischer knew he was a better all around player so to counter this he used the most non conventional opening. He knew no one would study moving the king within the first moves, forcing his opponent to analyze the board under blitz time pressure and eliminating move memorization.

@bob5945 Год назад

It's really not genius. It's obvious. The reason you think of it as genius is because you are stuck in the same limited thinking that makes most chess, and most chess players, absolute garbage. Most of Fischer's "genius" and "creativity" in latter years had far less to do with him, and far more to do with his opponents being rigid and weak. They easily collapsed and defeated themselves the moment they were thrown slightly off balance with anything that didn't conform to their memorized lines.

If the engines in those days weren't completely different than these days, the moves seem to be very human. To make it even more funny: Short´s move were more often expected by the engines. Very weird....

Definitely Fischer. The opening moves seem unlikely to be computer tactics at any level. Fischer rails in videos against what he considers to be a ruination of the game by the systematic study of opening moves and subsequent theories that result in elimination of creativity. This game is a perfect example of how he might approach the game based on those beliefs. There seems also to be a large experimentation component you don't find playing computers.

@RoadkillX33 3 года назад

It's interesting to note that Kasparov, in his match against Deep Blue, seems to have adopted an approach along the same lines, though not quite so radical. Kasparov's rationale was that the computer had the whole encyclopedia of chess openings and endgames programmed into its memory, so if he used standard openings, the computer would only have to "figure out" a few moves in middle game. We should also remember that some familiar openings, like Alekhine's Defense, use strategies that were at one time thought to be unsound. So I suspect that Fisher, playing against himself in his seclusion, may have been exploring new openings!

After consideration, it really displays a kind of arrogance that I would expect from Fischer. It's like saying 'Ok, I'm playing one of the best blitz players of the time, but I have crushed you 5 games to 0 already, so I'll give you some odds. I'll play a weak opening and waste a few moves to give you tempo, and still defeat you' And he does it in a style that only Fischer could, in my opinion. Remember that Fischer himself in a later interview basically alluded that he was the greatest chess player that ever lived. Why not make the game a bit more challenging? If he can keep the pieces somewhat level, I know who I'm betting to find the positional advantage of any end game scenario. And in the year 2000, a NICE computer was probably 333-533MHz processor, and I don't know of any chess engine at the time that could play this sharp and, well, masterful. The Queen sacrifice with so many moves to go is not an engine move. Bravo

@@louisyama9145 I think the competition is stronger argument is flawed. Fischer's competition wasn't weak. It's not that average chess strength of let's say top 20 players suddenly dipped. It was Fischer who reached far greater hights that anyone else. Talking of Magnus he hasn't surpassed the level Kasparov reached by big margin. Only thing he has against Fischer is longevity which Kasparov does too. But for pure genius and creativity Fischer was in different league. May be Morphy would challenge him on equal footing but no one else.

I could see exquisite precision in this game that kept all pieces working in harmony. Had to be a player of the highest caliber. But, that precision, along with the boldness and confidence in each move sure indicated it was someone only in Fischer’s league. Plus, OF COURSE Bobby would be online playing chess! So, he had to pop up somewhere. And 8 games out of 8? Plus immediately typing in “1970” when asked the question if he knew a certain chess player? Definitely 99% it was Fischer. I’ll go back to when I said, “OF COURSE Bobby would be online playing chess” - and his games had to pop up somewhere...THESE 8 games were the ‘somewhere’. With all that, my un-expert opinion is: 100% it was him.

@redpilledfag 2 года назад

I'm guessing Fischer wanted to play actual chess and not give in to theory, so he did those strange openings to force the both of them into an entirely new game each time. Fischer has always been critical of chess becoming a game of just memorization, so it would be characteristic of him to play that way.

the 'armando' thing makes this very intriguing for sure, and remember, bobby was pretty adamant about his dislike for modern chess and all the theory and memorization involved with the game even by that time, so it does make sense that he'd play 'out of book', especially in a blitz game in which he was probably the greatest player of all time...i doubt if nigel short would even think of creating a story like this just for the hell of it...chess computers at that time were good, but they were not like the monsters we have today (SF, H, and K)...i'm inclined to believe it was, indeed, bobby-- thx for this post, you're a good presenter and narrator--

The way he used his bishop on the left side of the board is indicative it was BF. Overall he used a diversionary tactic on the right side to open up the left side of the board only to strike back on the right. Seemed almost like a tactical military move. BF is a courageous & masterful player.

@hansmahr8627 6 лет назад

God, you people are fucking naive. You seem to think that Fischer is some kind of superhuman, who can come out of retirement thirty years after his prime and mop the floor with one of the best blitz players of the time. That's absolute bullshit. No one can do that. Age and lack of training take their toll. Fischer would have been crushed in 2000 by every single top 10 player, just like Kasparov today would not dominate the field as he did when he was active.

@janethenry518 5 лет назад

How do we know he wasnt still playing the game , even perhaps against computers or other players abroad? We dont know for certain.

I see your point, but some ppl are the exception.

@CARPB147 5 лет назад

You are absolutely correct. Yes, I believe it is sufficient evidence that it was Bobby Fischer. Probabilities that it could be someone else are vanishingly small because we are *combining* probabilities: That he would play a crazy, even disdainful opening, that he would answer curtly (and immediately) "1970" to an obscure name, and that he would crush a notable GM 8-0. Profoundly amazing. Very sorry that Fischer became so emotionally troubled, but he had fair reason to feel persecuted by government bureaucracies who had no clue about how special he was. That said, any assumptions that he hadn't played or studied chess since 1972 is just unfounded. Doesn't matter what he said publicly to throw people off his trail. That was typically him. He was a recluse, but chess was about the *only* thing he knew in life. He was a complicated man. He didn't like people or the limelight, he hated being challenged after having won the world championship in 1972 because he had already proven himself. He did think that chess was increasingly being "played out" and that is why he proposed variations like Fischer Random, or chess960. He felt that memorization of openings was almost cheating even though his own memory was prodigious. In a plane interview, he distinguished being a "great" modern player vs being super "talented" (like Morphy who wouldn't stand a chance against modern GMs if he hadn't opened a book in the last 100 years). He preferred talent and taking people out of classic openings. That's why this series against Nigel Short is so compelling. People doubting that it was Fischer are just not seeing the big picture. His opening was pure disdain to a noted GM, and to the game in a way. Pure and deeply Fischer.

@facespaz 5 лет назад

You should look up Sultan Khan he had little knowledge and understanding of theory and openings, but demonstrated that with pure talent you can still beat the best even starting from a weak position.

@CARPB147 5 лет назад

facespaz - Looking up Sultan Khan may be interesting, but doesn't prove anything at all about the point Zoccano made. It's not about focusing on one point and ignoring the others. There is *zero* chance Sultan Khan would have answered "1970" in a split second to the name of an obscure player brought up by N. Short during the games he lost 0-8 to the online player, ostensibly Fischer.

Shiro’s supposed to lose it, but then she turns it around at the last second and it’s all triumphant n shit. Great emotional moment. HOWEVER At the end of the game, when Shiro makes her big winning move, she’s already in check. The big move she makes doesn’t address this check. Game rule violation notwithstanding, Steph could literally capture Shiro’s king after the “big move”. So, with that said, I wouldn’t get my hopes up for any legitimately cool chess games in NGNL.

For the fun of it, I analyzed the game with Stockfish. After 3. Kf3 it evaluated the position as -3.2. Which effectively means that white is giving black a handicap of about 3 pawns, or one minor piece, in terms of position. 4. c3 gives even more of a handicap, as the engine evaluates the position as -4.1. So now it's about 4 pawns of handicap, in terms of position. After 7. Kg2, white has already gained some of that handicap back, as the evaluation is about -1.8. 11... Rg8 seems to have been a very sub-optimal move, as the evaluation jumped from about -1.5 to -0.7. On the other hand, 12. c5 was also a very sub-optimal move, as the evaluation jumped back to -1.8. When white trades the queen for the rooks, the evaluation is at -4.5. But then black makes a sub-optimal move again (Bf5) and the evaluation jumps to -2.7. The first move that makes the position equal is 41... Qe7. And the balance scales in favor of white with 44... Qc7, with the evaluation jumping to +1.1. 45... f6 is a complete blunder, as it allows mate in 16.

I mean, not to be rude to Fischer or anything, but if Fischer in his prime was to compete against magnus in his prime, imo Fischer would lose about 80% of the time, considering back then there wasn’t much computer analysis, and nowadays Fischer could be taken out of his comfort zone early on in the opening with sufficient preparation from other modern day GM’s. However, if there was a modern day version of Fischer, with access to computers and chess databases. then imo he would be able to climb quite high, but I’d still doubt he’d be able to beat magnus, since magnus is a beast in the endgame. For hikaru, he may be able to beat him in standard time control, but for blitz and rapid imo hikaru would be able to stand his ground against the star of the game of the century. That’s just my opinion though.
