This is the story of the birth of modern chess - when the possibilities of chess as an art, a science and a sport all converged.
The point of convergence was a young boy from Louisiana named Paul Morphy. At a time when America was seen as a backwoods nation with little cultural history and even less intellectual impetus, at a time when chess was considered the exclusive property of a few European countries, at a time when the game was played successfully by a handful of men wizened by years, Paul Morphy, in the brief span of 19 months and with seemingly little effort, defeated conclusively every player he met.
While today few non chess players even know his name, he was one of the most famous celebrities of his time and within the hallowed halls of the chess playing community he is considered by some as the greatest chess player of all time.
But this diminutive, unassuming boy rose to fame almost out of nowhere and once he secured his place in history, he retired back into that hazy unknown, shunning the public eye, never again to play serious chess. Not only was he one of great practitioners of the game, but also one of it's greatest enigmas. He's been given the sobriquet, The Pride and Sorrow of Chess.

#MorphySaga - Zábava
Stop listening to the negative stuff. Us loyal fans are here BECAUSE of the stories and the history. That is one of the things that makes your channel different and special. Keep doing you Agad. That is what makes you the most loved chess CZcamsr.
#Suggestion#1: Keep covering the long stories. Yes, they're interrupted by current chess games, but eventually you pick up the story line, and we end up with a playlist of a complete history of one of the chess greats. Suggestion#2: As Vance points out, stop listening to the negative stuff. You'll never please everybody, so no point in trying.
@@groussac what negative comments? sorry but I don't see any
@@-_Nuke_- Something I saw on Twitter.
Its really enjoyable with the story XD
Absolutely love the story.
Morphy Saga is more awaited than any Netflix series
I got hooked two days ago and went back to start the whole series..28 done in one day lol
Nicely done!
@@agadmator I am eagerly waiting for next videos.You history was great.Better than my history teacher..I am saying truth..
I really got addicted when he reads history, letters ect-the nuances and details of why Paul was great.
Appears the man is a myth now, you’ve brought him back to life...bravo sir and thank you.
If anyone is interested their is a fantastic you tube video of Bobby Fischer speaking about Morphy-I will not spoil it but he was asked…how Morphy would stand against today’s greatest.
Salute’.
Thank You for reminding me about Loki

@@Vyrene Several euros and dollars doesnt make you rich in any place on the entire planet
@@666Kaca thats the joke
After facing a bunch of cowards, Morphy is finally facing a true gentleman.
True ;)
Or continuously asking for a match with them but eventually not facing them, as the case may be.
My thoughts exactly.
True!
How poetic is agadmator? In his last review of this, not the first one but the second one, he talks of Paul Morphy "not being a butcher," oh so eloquently!
Morphy was getting leeched regularly. So he was on “leech-chess” before anyone
Pure gold
ba-dum tshh!
XD come on man...
We're approaching the end of the saga, but I really like these detailed videos with background stories. Please keep making them.
Antonio is such a brilliant story teller. "David Attenborough of Chess"
Sir David
@@dodekaedius Sir Antonio
Do you think Attenburgh write thise scripts or just reads them
Even Morphy's doctor was betting he would beat Anderssen, that's why he told him he was too sick to travel
And then he made leeches suck his blood to convince him he needs "treatment"
i really love the history lesson at the beginning, really makes the game more enjoyable and exciting
The history lesson is in the book
Anderssen had to be the best player in the world following the great 1851 Tournament. Some commentators place him as an unofficial world champion based on metrics, until the Morphy period came along of course. After Morphy's early retirement he resumed his dominance more or less before Steintz. Anderssen is worthy of a saga in his own right. I expect that will happen one day on this channel somewhere down the road.

Fun fact :- Morphy played around 80 no odds games using the Evans gambit and he lost only two of them , one of this being this game . he lost a few when he gave odds of knight or rook . Maybe we should offer Morphy a Evans head for his success with the Evans gambit . 🙂
That's what I was thinking. I hadn't seen him lose with Evan's gambit ever. But in this game he was worst from start to finish. Really rare for morphy.
@@billagap3213 he was very sick and lost a lot of blood if it weren’t for that morphy would crush anderssen
@@josef2639 I wouldn't say crush. Anderssen is an exceptional player, though maybe not on the level of Morphy. Undoubtedly his best opponent and would give him a run for his money even if the two of them were at their physical and mental peaks with their respective styles.

Well,one point you didn't mention. Anderssen was a thorough gentleman. He offered to postpone the match till Morphy recovered from his illness,but Morphy refused and decided to continue.
Absolute chad
I LOVE how detailed you are. Getting the history and the information is a big part of why I love this channel, and why you are one of the greatest CZcams creators out there in my opinion. You are wonderfully engaging, present a story in every game (even when doing analysis of tournament games). I appreciate that you take into consideration the criticism thoughtfully, as your presentation has improved greatly over the years, but I just wanted to at least express that I love what you have done, what you are doing, and am very grateful for your content.
It's pretty how Morphy's familiy had absolutely no idea how important his chess legacy would be one day.
I mean. If I'm writing history, I could definitely skip one Christmas Eve.
But back then they probably viewed it like gaming today.
It's not that serious, dont put too much mind to it. And i think with gaming, this actually holds, unless your facing the best players of the world, which Morphy actually did.
the most underrated comment ever
Second that
So nice to learn about chess history by this great man Antônio. I love this channel
(I play in) the style of Morphy, they say, and if it is true that the goddess of fortune has endowed me with his talent, the result (of the match with Emanuel Lasker )will not be in doubt. The magnificent American master had the most extraordinary brain that anybody has ever had for chess. Technique, strategy, tactics, knowledge which is inconceivable for us; all that was possessed by Morphy fifty-four years ago." Jose Raul Capablanca.
Do you know from which year this quote is?
Because you left off the opening quotation mark ("), I thought you were talking about yourself until the end of the quip.
Like David said because you didn't start with a quotation mark I thought you was talking about yourself hahaha
@@davidanderson_surrey_bc No I found this quate on internet. I was searching info about Paul Morphy and I saw it this. Then I did copy-paste:).
@@TechnoRaabe around 1920
Finally, the Morphy saga continues. When you're done with this, I would love to see one about Alekhine.
I think the Morphy Saga has graduated into the Morphy Epic
"Attack! Attack! Attack!"
-Napoleone Bonaparte
The Morphy saga is the best along with the Bobby Fischer saga.
Dear God, the Evans Gambit is so legendary...there is no other opening that hears audible shouts of joy from me to see it played on the board like this.
This game from the old masters themselves has to be the most enjoyable game I have ever seen.
The evergreen and opera games' authors are battling together for hounour only; Anderssen cements his position as master of the old world of chess by forcing resignation from Paul Charles Morphy himself in this incredible game. This is truly what the Morphy saga has been leading up to - forget Staunton.
After memorising the opera game and evergreen game from both of these players, Agad has given me a new game to memorise.
What an awesome game - one that any chess player should know by heart when thinking of these two artists from the past.
*I typed out this entire monster comment and hit post before realising I'd made a typo on the very last word... RIP to my spelling, bros.
the evans gambit and the king of development are the most perfect combination
Even when the game was over, I was still waiting for Agad to say "I'm just kidding he did not play the Evans gambit"
"Loss after Evan's gambit. My whole life was a lie".
-Sun Tzu
Black has a monster Knight on e5. Oh wait, that's a leech that fell on the board.
1858 seems so far away from 2021, it's insane how many events happened from then, so many wars (literally two World Wars) the rise of so many dictators, so many inventions, moon landing. I wonder if Morphy would have thought his game would be played out so many years later. He probably must have known his games were pretty famous but it's surreal to think that with the internet and computers his games will forever be online for people to see and replay
Morphy and his contemporaries knew the games of Greco, as well as Philidor, McDonnell and LaBourdannais. So even in that period there was an appreciation of the long arc of chessic history and how its evolution in strategic terms and the theory of the openings took place over centuries.
Morphy saga is finally back!
Mijaíl Tal likes today's quote
Anderssen is sort of a trailblazer to Tal’s game.
Let's swap that j for a k
Great video!. Indeed, a great victory for Anderssen. Although we all love the Evans Gambit, and Antonio REALLY likes this opening, the truth of the matter is, and even Morphy himself said it later in his life, that if Black manages to castle, then White doesn't have a lot to show for the pawn sacrifice. Anderssen masterfully played the Evans Gambit as it is meant to be played with Black: Just develop your pieces, try to castle as soon as possible, and DON'T FORGET TO PLAY d5. This move creates a counter-crisis in the center, which magically solves all of Black's problems. I really enjoyed watching Anderssen calmly countering the Evans Gambit, and then slowly but surely improving his postion, until Morphy didn't have anything else to do. Of course, both player made mistakes, but it's a very instructive game on how to play against an over aggressive opening.
Thank you for the video, Antonio. Sunday has immediatly been improved by watching this beautiful game.
"A slap in the face" is such a perfectly accurate description of that move.
It really wasnt tho lol
It was just a pawn grab...black didnt utilise white's knight move to his own advantage or something...
I love agad, but that wasnt an accurate description lol
This saga got me into chess! I can’t wait for it to continue into a finish
Definitely the good stuff. Thanks for continuing the Morphy Saga.
The history is a huge part of what got me into this channel to begin with. The stories and personalities of chess are, in my opinion, half the fun.
Has been a long wait for this Morphy Saga to resume...sooooo happy. :)
There was so much tension in this game, I felt more excited and stressed than when watching a thriller
I enjoyed every single piece of the history behind the game. You're doing greater than ever, thank you so much for your excellent content!!!
Idk who that doctor was but he was paid a good amount for sure.
Love the historical perspective you give to some of these great games. Your video is frequently the highlight of my day ! Many thanks.
Thank You for posting this, What a game!!!!
"The history recap is deeply appreciated. People should learn to take advantage of time stamps"

Morphy: Sorry, Doctor, but I must go play my game with Anderssen now.
Leeches: Hey, can we come with you and hang around for a while?
Really enjoy the history at the beginning of these sagas.
Anderssen seems like a gentleman.
The history is what sets the channel above others, love that content
I actually pause life to see another amazing video, and after, I feel free to go back to whatever life can bring me. Thank you so much and keep going.
Finally, two legendary masters - and two gentlemen.
Your commentary makes chess come to life! Thank you.
Like an epic is being told in front of your eyes. Drama of creative and destructive forces.
Now this is the real good stuff !!
These videos are awesome especially the history part! We appreciate it keep it up 👏🏼
Good to see such a well played game against Mr. Morphy.
THANK YOU! PLEASE KEEP UPLOADING NEW VIDEOS FOR THE MORPHY SAGA. I don't care what happens in the current century, I'm only here for Paul Charles Morphy
I love the info with the chapters.
im so happy that morphy videos are back on the channel
Oh....what a beautiful saga...what a great artitistc game to tell the story..what an awesome game...!
Loving the good stuff!
Thank you so much for all your work Agad 🙏 your videos are the best parts of my day
Great content .. thank you for doing these vidoes
This is beautiful game!!! Thank you for the storytelling as well~ !
The good stuff is what keeps me going through the bad times. Need more of this Morphy saga.
Always love the backstory
It's amazing to see how great the players were to play Evan's Gambit to such perfection even in the 18th century.
This is one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen.
"And it was in this position that Paul Charles Morphy resigned the game"
Never thought I'd hear that one.
He actually lost 2 in this 11-game match (+7 -2 =2)
good work, Agadmator!!!
5:26 game starts here
What jokesters are saying that there are too many stories and history?! The stories/ history and the explanation analysis of why one played what the played or why you should or should not play a given move is the best part of these videos!
AlphaZero : "Mr Anderson, we meet again"
i LOVE THE STORYTELLING WITH THESE GAMES!!!!
Really looking forward to this saga picking back up again….
#suggestion. Alekhine would be a great next saga series as his World championship matches were interrupted not by one but two world wars, and he was accused of being a German spy at one point. Next to Morphy and Capablanca, those should be the three greatest players in that 100 year period as most folks would agree. Thanks again for the great content and the fantastic commentary. God bless - Tom Deraleau
Anderson did have Morphy responding to his constant pressure those are hard games to play when your opponent has the upper hand and you constantly have to make moves to counter thanks for the game Agadmator
I was just looking for a new video good timing 😇
So great. Thx!!
Anderssen CHAD vs Stanton Virgin
We love history Agad. That's the good stuff and why we are here!
Great games indeed. Thanks.
I love the vast knowledge in the intro
Enjoying your vast knowledge of Paul Charles Morphy. It's spot on .
Good doctor. Always a facilitator
About time we got some more of "the good stuff".
Great chess. Great commentary!
If they made a movie about morphy 90 % of it would be about morphy and his opponent traveling drama .
Anderssen was the greatest chess player before Morphy. He was a wonderful, attacking, romantic player, who made large contributions to chess theory. His best games are probably the most beautiful ever played.

What a fantastic game!
Now, after Antionio explodes my brain, there is nothing more to be done here.
Amazing.. Thank you.
Wow. I feel like this is the first time I've actually seen Morphy play. Yeah, I've seen him lose, but that was almost always because he wasn't taking his opponent seriously. And most of his wins he just rolls over opponents that are virtually playing a different game than him. And now we finally get to see Morphy play against someone who is as brilliant as he is, and it's everything I was hoping for.
Morphy saga is back baby!!
You are a great story teller agad!
I'm living for this history by the way. I want a Hollywood feature film on Morphy's life yesterday.
yes, the background story makes the video! thank you!
History stuff is great indeed. I feel like I'm in history class or something but with chess and a glass of whisky to relax.

Love the content
thank you for this
I really enjoy the history stuff!
I can’t imagine how disappointed Morphy would be if we could tell him today that leeching was completely pointless
Not completely pointless. Still used in modern medicine for ultra specific conditions.
Its not useless at all lmao, it can be used to treat cardiovascular diseases and inflammation. Not to mention a ton of pro athletes do "cupping" now too which is basically the same idea
The leeching wasn’t completely pointless. The leech benefited greatly! 🤔
It was for the problem he had though
@@XavierAway Yes I guess in that case you were right haha
Back to the GOOD STUFF!
Im loving the history introductions agad..
