One last roll of the dice - Bent Larsen vs Bobby Fischer Game 6 | Candidates 1971 

The quality of analysis is the best here.

Many Thanks to GM King for analyzing and making Fischer vs Larsen match. As always “awesome job”.

Great video as always ! Would be nice to comment one of Larsen win one day. I fell like we ve only seen him getting destroyed by Spassky or Fisher :D

Excellent commentary, GM King! I am eagerly looking forward to your review of the Final Candidates match games between Fischer and Petrosian👍🏽

Many thanks, Daniel, you run an excellent channel. In an interview a few months after the match, Larsen said that he had studied the games and knew where he had gone wrong, and he was now the best player in the world. An awesome player, brimming with confidence and optimism. I love Polugayevsky's account of his adjourned game with Larsen at Le Havre in 1966, particularly his comment on Larsen's 66th move (Grandmaster Preparation, P109).

Thanks a lot for this outstanding series Daniel. It is always a great pleasure watching your elaborate videos. I am curious about the clash between Tigran Petrosian aka boa constrictor and the chess machine. Your channel is a tremendous treasure.

I wouldn't say Fischer "demolished" Taimanov - yes, he beat him 6-0, but Fischer said they were some of the most difficult games he'd played. Taimanov put up a good fight. I like that after the match, Mark Taimanov told Fischer - "Well, I still have my music". Pretty sure he knew what the Soviet government was going to do to him. Great video again, as always.

Mr King is a Joy to watch, just listening to his witty " londonness" is in It self vastly enjoiable

I believe this was a 10 game match. Larsen was trailing 5-0 and a draw would lose the match. Therefore, it is quite understandable why Larsen did not force a draw when he had the opportunity and instead continued to play for the win.

Stunning coverage. This is chess History. Petrosian-Fischer is what I'm really looking forward to. This clash of titans, Fischer on his Great Mission, Petrosian out for revenge against Spassky. Thank you GM King.

Love Danny King, legend

Bobby was a beast. I would have liked to see him play against the current top players.

I can't wait to see your analysis for Fischer-Petrosian match. Thanks a lot in advance!!

I love your videos mr. King!

Great games and analysis, thank you.

Looking forward to the final. Thank you a lot for these videos!

Another series well covered. Looking forward to the series against Petrosyan, who it was claimed, could see his opponent's move before the opponent saw them!

Just fantastic coverage, pls cover petrosian Wipeout

I was really expecting Larsen to win at least one of these. Fischer was so dominant that the lack of real competition is a bit disappointing.

GM King states about Larsen's play at one point: 'He almost got there.' Alas, some déjà vu there about my own chess . . . :)

I'm looking forward to your coverage of Game 2 of the Petrosian - Fischer Candidates match to see Fischer actually NOT win :-P One of my favourite games actually.

Super solid Bobby

thank you!

Looking forward to the Petrosian games!

I'm enjoying the entire Road to Reykjavik series. Looking forward to the Petrosian and Spassky matches. Would be curious how the computer assess positions periodically.

"monotonousness" Daniel King, 2019

I believe this was a ten game match so if Larsen wanted to stay in he had to chain together 5 wins hence the play style this game. Nevertheless a superb performance by Fischer with superb commentary :)

0-5 down, 1.f4..... Wow.

Well Larsen didn't larst long....

In variant sacrifice on f5 i think bishop h6 is better than bishop d3

Sir let's have a match on Lichess. By the way nice explaination.

More RJF!!!!!

why you don't show where Bobby Fischer lose ? Good analysis.

😃👍

Do you think Fischer was monotonous? I've never heard that said of him

Whose better Bobby Fischer in 1970 or Magnus Carlsen in 2014? Wish I could see that battle!

he knew he had a draw. he wanted to go down fighting.

1:38 move 7.Na3 is not best. Best is actually 7.Nc3

The sniper bishop wins the game

Very interesting. First point: Larsen's excuses are embarrassing. Second point: Larsen humiliation extended by his his insistence he be No. 1 in the worlds -vs- USSR match. Third he saw how the Taimanov match went. This last point is exacerbated by the match up to then; especially the first game: Larsen played so well that he would beat any player in the history of chess - but his pieces were swept for the board. Dude! Understand! Fischer is better than you. You have had it proved after one game. You have had it proved after five games. Take a draw. Take a draw. Lose 5.5 to 0.5 or 5.0 to 1.0 Do you really want to go down as another Taimanov? Are you that stupid? Do you think you can lose five - FIVE - games and pull back the match? The question is - how stupid are you? (1) Not stupid at all (just got beaten by a better player) or (2) I think I can beat a player who just outplayed me for the last five games? In my opinion Larsen wins the crown for the stupidest chess player of all time.
