- The grandmaster Garry Kasparov, considered by many to be the greatest chess player of all time, replays some of his most unforgettable games. He relives both the happiest and the most painful moments of his career, including:
Garry Kasparov vs. Anatoly Karpov: World Championship Match 1985
Garry Kasparov vs. Anatoly Karpov: World Championship Match 1987
Garry Kasparov vs. Viswanathan Anand: PCA-GP Credit Suisse Rapid Final Blitz Playoff 1996
Garry Kasparov vs. Deep Blue: I.B.M. Man vs. Machine 1997
Correction: At minute 3:55, the rook at H8 is highlighted as attacked by the white queen. The rook at C8 should be highlighted instead.

Chess Grandmaster Garry Kasparov Replays His Four Most Memorable Games | The New Yorker - Zábava
Correction: At minute 3:55, the rook at H8 is highlighted as attacked by the white queen. The rook at C8 should be highlighted instead.
The New Yorker Thank you. I was wondering about that.
Was about to say.. ahahahah nice!
Kasparov can do mistakes, but you not.
Rook-ie mistake
Thanks. I thought it looked weird
Kasparov is the only man alive that can say “Karpov’s psychological weakness” and get away with it. The rest of us would get pulverized by Karpov’s looking at us across the board.
True. I can't stand those eyes.
Really true.
I reckon Carlsen could give Karpov a run for his money.
Across all games played against each other, Karpov leads the head to head outcome.
@@jasonwiggins6137 no, but it's very close.
huge kudos to Kasparov. 2 of his 4 most memorable games resulted in losses. takes a lot to share that when he could easily have picked 4 winning games
brett clark I'm guessing it's because he no longer has anything to prove we all know him as one of the best if not the best player
Yeah, like Casanova reviewing his history with women, and he shows the times he got rejected too.
oh well when kasparov lost in his activ career he didnt take it that cool. he was often very unsportsmanlike and for example just left without saying anything
I don't see why not.They are all recorded anyway.He did tutor Carlsen after all,and I'm sure he showed him what blunders to avoid.
The greatest of people remember their failures more than their successes.. Its what makes them great
Wow one of the biggest chess player of the era is highlighting up his mistakes,,,,, I thought that he'll show his best and only the good moves......... Well great act by the great chess player.....
Great learning
I think the reason they chose to focus on his blunders is that those are much easier to understand. When explaining the great moves you have to analyse many variations.
The humble Kasparov, who'd have thought?
Russell Baker humble??? Hahahahahaha hahahahahaha
despite this, his ego is palpable
0:34 Kasparov is not Russian, here is proof
Lol
He is an Armenian Jew, not ethnic Russian at all.
Who said he was Russian?
He admits he made up his last name coz it sounded good. If I moved to Israel, my last name would be Tinklestein.
Kasparov's real surname is Garrik Kimovich Weinstein... His father was jew, mother is armenian.
Kasparov has no poker face. He showed every motion at the board. Love it!
Chess not about pokerface
@@kasekeksdeluxe6529 It can be to some extent in tight positions. Certainly not like real poker, but can have a slight effect at the highest levels.
you dont need a pokerface in chess, you need a threatening face to break your opponent´s spirit, and Kasparov had it. He used to say, you have to win the game before start playing
@@blogattacker I know, like what are you trying to hide with a poker face? Everything is on the board. The only thing you need is confidence that you're gonna win.
@@kasekeksdeluxe6529 If you commit a blunder that is hard to see you might not wanna look terrified to it, that will cause your oponent to try to look for something.
Whenever I see 3d boards when showing positions I immediately believe it was produced by a non- chess player. It's so hard to see what's going on. Just me?
Adam Murray yes
Doesn't anyone play chess at a real chess board anymore? hehe
Real tournaments are played with real physical sets.
TheDnaitsirc Yes, and also not on a screen
Yeah, they didn't even know which rook was attacked at 3:55
I met Garry Kasparov in 2007 in New York at a Borders book store. He was promoting his new book, "How Life Imitates Chess". He autographed my book, and he let me shake his hand while my friend took a photo. I still have that signed book, with the photo inside. Garry Kasparov is a very nice kind polite friendly man, and I'm honored to have gotten the chance to briefly meet him.
Wow that's an honorable moment you should be proud
He's my chess idol, "jealous" is an understatement!
That book is worth reading though
I can't even remember what I ate for lunch two days ago
But i remember some of my sacrifices. And blunders ofc. These are unforgettable.
I suggest you get your head examined. That’s not normal.
You just made me realise how hard it really is to remember what you had for lunch two days ago...
Valeria Vagapova I’m surrounded by idiots....
@@Detherocable Oh yes, because remembering all of your meals over the last 3 days is the clear indicative of high intelligence... lol
I like how kasparov introduces himself. "I'm gary Kasparov." NO further explanation is required hahaah
This man mentioned 2 of his losses in the 4 of his most memorable games. It says a lot of his mental character and a kind of chess player he is.
Thank you very much for the wonderful video.
Even video editor blundered the Rook!!
hahah noticed that it was kinda funny with all the cinematic and epic sound effects lmao
I love listening to Kasparov talk about chess. There’s a lot of depth to what he’s saying but he makes it sound simple and down to earth
I like that he lists a blunder has his most memorable, very humble.
You may be the first person ever to call Kasparov humble; his arrogance is infamous.
WTF, he is not humble at all, he is rude too
@@zADIA5025 When you're the best chess player for over 20 years, you have every right to be arrogant tbh
@@ichbintursu, I concur.
Of course its not memorable!! but its unforgettable, still lingering in his mind, inflicting pain!! which he admitted
I would have enjoyed this video much more if a 2d chess board was used rather than a 3d chess board. Would have been much easier to follow his explanations.
We all get used to things being done a certain way but you can't expect everyone to conform to what we personally like (I like the angle shown since that's how chess is played when not playing on line). But in saying that, I like the old chess notation but no one is going to change back to it because I like it and learned chess with it. We have to adapt.
Normal 3D view just looks ugly af. All the pieces look the same.
Mike Young there's no such thing as real chess, the symbols used in computer/ online chess represent the same thing as actual pieces. They're just a lot easier to understand on a 2D image, which is what this video is, it's not a real chessboard in front of me.
Also real chessboards don't usually have the coordinates, why make one gesture to legibility but not another?
it's for the n00bs like me :)
Patrick Moore trust me you’d be able to understand what’s what with 2d better
"You have to make tough decisions, and you have to resist pressure." How that fits everything! I love these New Yorker videos. Thank you.
That quote suggests that Kasparov also had what it takes to be a good political leader. I'm sorry his political career was so brief. In any case the chess world benefits.
The whole series is great! czcams.com/play/PLo1TdazaYsoo1UjlYwFcM8Cc2QJSMw06f.html
don't forget he addressed that character to Fischer
Then I saw Karpov entering the stage, that was the crucial moment because I could look at his eyes, I could look at his body and he looked doomed. I could immediately understand that he didn't believe he could defend his position - Garry Kasparov... a cold blooded, calculating killer... (gives me chills) --- (No disrespect to Anatoly Karpov, he is also one of the best)
I can't imagine the stress of these games! It takes so much out of you
Always a pleasure when Garry shares the magic.
1:16 Reading a guy's body posture.... brilliant.
Bravo Kasparov! Your modesty for displaying some Grandmaster blunders only accentuates your character. If there was one grandmaster I would hope to ever meet and have a chat it would be Gary Kasparov!
Same here
I like how the title includes that little tidbit about Kasparov being a chess grandmaster. Learn something new everyday.
i cannot look at this position without some sort of of pain he says as he is smiling.
I love the nostalgic feeling to this video. Very well done!
I enjoy listening to the way he breaks down the game
How sympathical, how humanoid is Garry?
One of the last stars of the century.
I love him!!!
Why do you talk like that
I'm surprised he didn't talk about his game Kasparov-Topalov 1999
SingingChess THAT was an absolutely stunning game: www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1011478
i think he didnt talk about it cos its waaaaaay too complicated for your average watcher who dosent know chess that much.
Quite the career for Kasparov, thanks for sharing this video!
Watching kasparov vid, and kasporov masterclass ad comes up.
Great.
Thanks for posting this.
Great video. Absolute gold.
Like innumerable chess lovers, I loved Kasparov's games.
What a legend!
I love this man.
Really interesting choice of games and what was happening behind them. Valuable material. I like it.
3:50 Kasparov is so good, his queen on g4 can attack a rook on h8 :)
*Anand
Well, as he explained, its all psychological...so if you believe your opponent can make that move then you've lost. :)
Cudos to the NYer for noting the error in their description.
It's Anand's, not Kasparov's.
@@lc0597 r/whooooosh
thank you for sharing !
I love his accent and hearing him talk!
those despondent pics of garry with his head in his hands are killing me
There's a funny bit in this (at 3:50) where he says "My Queen is attacked, my Rook is attacked, my Bishop is attacked...", and The New Yorker journos helpfully highlight the attacked pieces on the board - except they've chosen to highlight the wrong Rook! [edit: ah, OK, I see now they've acknowledged this]
Dear sir,
I was absolutely glad and happy to watch your chess games video. You are my favourite chess GM. I appreciate to you always sir.
I definitely had a bad impression of Garry Kasparov..He seems like an actually cool guy with a delightfully playful sense of humor. Keep on rocking, Garry..🤘🏽🤘🏽
Can we actually just stop a minute and acknowledge how mind blowing it is that he can recall the intricacies of the moves in a game like 30 years ago haha he must have played god knows how many since then, it's amazing
Garry taught us Black can counterattack with imagination and flair. His early KID games were amazing
Such a class , such a gentleman
Great visualization!
“Maybe it’s the most famous game of chess if you look at the sheer numbers”
XQC vs El Rubis: he he...
He is Legend
Interesting to see him discuss the Anand blunder, the pain is still real.
Great One!!!
At 3:54 the wrong rook is highlighted.
Thought before your comment Kasparov was misunderstanding the position :D
very suspicious
NOW IT MAKES SENSE TO MEE!
@@turtle207 Kasparov is still good
@@turtle207 it's not him, it's the dumbass editors lol
It's smart how Kasparov plays logically in the real world and thinks about the context of his opponent
Love this guy
I just love that chess set
I like his honesty and after reading his book about deep blue I have serious concerns about what was going on behind the scenes at IBM during the match.
A good enough chess AI can reproduce any possible best moves made by a chess grandmaster, but only a human grandmaster can give you insights about the greatest chess mistakes they have ever made.
Look at how all of these games are remembered move for move.
Gary is awesome.
I know nothing about chess, but I can really appreciate the passion and drive for perfection this man seems to have for it. Being upset that you only beat a chess computer one time instead of two really illustrates that lol
I don't think you will appreciate this man that much if you see 1994 Linares game vs 17 year old Judit Polgar or 2003 Lineares game vs16 year old Radjabov. Search agadmator's chess channel
Kasparov is undoubtedly the greatest chess champion.
I doubt that.
Darth KEK me too
@@darthkek1953 Instead of just your opinion how about some facts, it's best to compare with raw data, rather than how you feel about a player.
@@kasparov9 TAL, Fischer, Morphy.
Gazza doesn't even make the top three.!
@@darthkek1953 haha ok bud.
Amazing video!!!
Kasparov is on the board very honest. He shows emotions over the board. This is what I like on Kasparov
kasparov looks like a chess player. when you see him in video's looking a chess board concentrating and stuff i mean he really really does.
before this i got an ad about him teaching chess
reveal your secrets!
Was hoping he would go over his famous game against Topalov, great video none the less.
One of those that I consider the greatest.
Garry Kasparov Greatest Chess Player Of All Time
Yeow Wei Wenn that will be magnus carlsen.
Lasker was champ for about 27 years straight.
Impossible to say, pointless debate, opinion only. Fisher, Tal, Carlsen, Morphy, Capablanca etc all lived at different eras and points of evolution in the game. Who would win if they all had the access to the same information and then played at the same age when they were at their peak. A total hypothetical situation but the only way to really tell
@@PDJMDS Thank you , Capt. Obvious. I'll take that as a vote for Morphy, though. He never respected chess as a career and thought little of it as a way to spend time for an adult. If he did so well with one foot out of chess, imagine if he were all in like Fischer was!
MC is the one for now
I like him, he’s so humble and down to earth - the majority of people would have shown their wins only but he showed his losses and that is a sign of great strength! ♟
10/10 editing
This is some great content
great video for all chessplayers
Who's here after Queen's Gambit?
Many ppl and they don’t care
@@ohboi9578 don’t be a little tiddler
3:54 This tactic has Garry's most memorable reaction on youtube.
Great timeline of chess!
"It's only about your confidence that you can either win or defend. And that will make all the difference for the outcome of the game" 🙏
Is Kasparov right when he said that the chess programs installed mobilephone nowadays are stronger than deepblue which consider a super computer
Yes ofcourse. I don´t know about the hardwere but the chess algoritms is so much stronger.
Yes
to put things into prospective, whatever phone you have has way processing power thn what they used to get to the moon
Both Hardware and Software are stronger today. DeepBlue had performance figure of 11.38 GFLOPS. Today a Samsung Galaxy S6 has 34.8 GFLOPS. And an Intel i7 processor can output about 107.55 GFLOPS
Absolutely. Magnus Carlsen would not be competitive with a phone at full strength. I would not be surprised if a graphing calculator could beat him.
1:53 , when a single pawn moving is like a serial killer approaching you.
We love you Garry
Good memories
The last game reminds me of my games, I immediately saw that I would do the rook lift.
Greatest human chess player in history. I expected him to choose his slaughter of Veselin Topalov in 1999 though.
As someone who probably wouldve hated Fischer if I was alive in his heyday and as someone who resents his "best by test" sentiment, Bobby Fischer was the best player ever, not Kasparov
Koroshiya bobby Fischer was good for three years. Not good enough to be the greatest ever. Capablanca, Alekhine, Kasparov are ahead of Fischer in my opinion.
nah,carlsen is the best in history.
you all high. mikhail tal is the greatest chess player
How many title defenses fisher had?
How many games won as a world champion?
Sorry, you cant back up your opinion against the fact that Kasparov has the stats.
Master of legends
Incredible
I didnt know kasparov got some looks when he was young.
For sure. Chess has had a number of handsome faces over the years.
Reporter: So what do you do on planes?
Kasparov: I rematch a stronger Deep Blue on my cellphone.
Garry for President! He ist so clever! What a man!
Watched this 3 times now
Kasparov for president
The fact that he remembers Vishy Anand's game (and his painful loss), is in itself a testimony of Vishy Anand's stature as a great chess player
He remembers his own blunder, it has nothing to do with who his opponent was.
@@rotagbhd
Anand is one of the greats.
Amazing edit
For game two they highlighted the rook that wasnt attacked lol... good job guys!
I like Garry Kasparov, very much as a humanitarian. And along with his great chess acumen, he is also a phenomenal historian. But again, I like the fact that he is a truly decent human being.
All my life I have heard his name pronounced in wrong way, now I know how it should be pronounced.
Amazing !
kasparov was my idol ..thank you kaspy :)
You can't tell the difference between a bishop and a pawn with these boards
Russia has given so many gems to chess. Salute to these geniuses.🙏
Best ever.
what an amazing video ......
When he listed two games in which he blundered and failed, I was just waiting for the 4th game to be him v Magnus lol.
