The 9th Annual Linares Super Tournament held from February 22nd to March 15th, 1991 was a category XVII event. Fourteen of the world's top players, including the World Champion, competed in a round robin format that was the strongest tournament in the world at that time. The participants were (in order of ELO): Garry Kasparov (2800), Anatoli Karpov (2725), Boris Gelfand (2700), Vassily Ivanchuk (2695), Mikhail Gurevich (2650), Jaan Ehlvest (2650), Valery Salov (2645), Alexander Beliavsky (2640), Gata Kamsky (2640), Vishwanathan Anand (2635), Jan Timman (2630), Jonathan Speelman (2610), Artur Yusupov (2605), and Ljubomir Ljubojevic (2595). It was a second phenomenal victory for Ivanchuk who finished clear first with an impressive 9.5/13, even winning his head to head match with second place and world champion, Kasparov.

"A game is always more interesting if one of the players is Ivanchuck " - agadmator 😆
Lol i too giggled by that
preferably both of them
Nooo, A game is more interesting if Agadmator is doing commentary. - agads subs.
Against Ivanchuk at his best, an inaccuracy might as well be a ?????-level blunder.
I love Ivanchuk's games as much as Agadmator. His immortal against Kasparov is just some of the most incredible and beautiful chess. Definitely a game that will be loved for centuries to come I'd imagine. The way he just gave up his bishops so early throwing away all known chess strategy and then just slowly closes things down until Kasparov's bishops and everything else are just useless. Man I love that game so much. Gonna open it up in lichess again right now lol. And some of his other greats.

The man with the frying pan 🤔🤔🤔
🤣🤣🤣
Karpov with 1 sec on the clock
Ivanchuk: Ehm... Let's just play whatever
I think that's exactly what happened.
Its called J&K gambit now
He played a move for which he was sure Karpov wouldn't bother to calculate. Thus ruining the entire Karpov's precomputed moves tree. This can be devastating for engines too (if they are in time-trouble, which they never are).
When my oponent is low on time, i keep sacrificing pieces to throw them offguard.
When low on time i premove the most obvious moves and i expect my opponent to do the same, so they are expecting a check on the king on the kingside, how about i sacrifice my Queen to a pawn on the Queen side on the opposite side of the board.
BTW, read sacrifice as unexpected unintentional brilliancy which wins the game.
"Ivanchuk plays what I consider to be an Ivanchuk Move !! "
I remember Ivanchuk in a preparation match for a tournament and a reporter asked him about what strategy he was planning to use and he promptly answered, "well, I will just play e4 and see what happens".. great Chucky!

This was the first time ever that a single player beat both Kasparov and Karpov in the same tournament. Linares 1991 was so action-packed that Inside Chess (GM Yasser Seirawan’s magazine) ran an entire issue featuring all 91 games of the tournament, many of the games with complete analysis.
Grandmasters hate it when you use this one weird plan!
Such a manly move!
There are 2 trucks carrying Ivanchuks's balls. That's the level of manly that Ivanchuk has! :-)
Lol I was going to make this comment but it was already here
Pushes a backwards doubled pawn for no apparent reason..
Agadamator: "It's such a manly move"
Its the move that allows him at least a draw
When I do it, it's because I suck at chess.
you understand it's an old agadmator video when
1. there are no pillows
2. top donation are under 1000
Not only a great game, but also, through your smart and funny choice of words, one of your best commentaries ever!
With a mien of crafty slyness, Ivanchuk played 35. g4 ! The move has no real value, but the position was equal, both were in time trouble, it was therefore essential that Karpov believed Ivanchuk had a plan! So Ivanchuk faked it, in a certain sense, but he did have one! He wanted Karpov to blunder and play 35. .., Qf4 which seems to win a pawn and be without risk, since the g-pawn falls with check. Unfortunately Qf4 places Karpov in an inescapable mating net, easily executed. So Karpov resigned, fuming from gills, ears and nostrils - but polite as ever...
+Hallands Menved Well said. Thanks Menved :)
agadmator's Chess Channel Well, it's pure guesswork on my part, but I looked at the position in Stockfish, and g4 doesn't do anything exept potentially loose a pawn. But it just might lure the Queen to f4, so perhaps. Let's ask Ivanchuk!
i thought he was trying to play g5 followed by Qh3 if black plays hxg5. If black doesn't capture the pawn he can play gxh6 forcing gxh6 followed by maybe Re6?
I'm inclined to agree. If there is no obvious explanation, the most logical one seems to do just fine.
Man g5 is a deadly move that opens up the h file.
It's not just a bluff.
Stevie Wonder could see that.
GM Ivanchuk has taught me that NOTHING should be overlooked in making moves. His calculations can be staggering.
Favorite word of the video: "Well". Times used: 51. Don't start counting like I did - once you do, you can't unsee. This Ivanchuk guy really is a champion killer.
+Zokeh You have to say well, and ok, at least 50 times when analyzing Ivanchuk's games. That's the rule :)
i'm not even kidding when i say i counted 49 times
Every time Agad says "Well" - drink!
@@agadmator 2cd language has it's challenges. I heard an actress explain the word "like," (extremely overused by many of a certain generational subset here in the states)as the "verbalization of the comma." Hilarious and brilliant, not the regular domain of the hollywood actress. Maybe she didn't come up with that but it was the first I had heard of it. Were I capable of a second language I would take pride in that. Unfortunately...no pride for me.
Well is better than um. It’s deeper, all things considered.
All of Karpov's pieces were pretty much in a perfect spot to defend against white's attack so my guess is that Ivanchuk played g4 thinking that Karpov was essentially in a blitz zugzwang where he would have to think for a while in order to find a move that very slightly improves his position. It is very easy to throw the game away in that moment considering all of white's threats, and I think Ivanchuk knew this.
Probably knowing Karpov's time constraint, I suspect that Ivanchuk played a very fast move to take away Karpov's thinking time.
The idea behind the move: Black had no move so white created one for him. "Better to know where a crocodile is than where it isn't"
Michael Harris Nice one sir
Michael Harris, are you an Ozzie?
@@cinegraphics No, from Ireland, where we don't even have snakes. A dog bit is the worst we'll ever get from nature. Maybe more afraid of crocs than if I knew them. Their grip and drawing the biggest of animals into the deep dark water by the leg or face, scary stuff. Yes, I'd rather know where every croc was if venturing near their habitat.
@@MichaelHarrisIreland yeah, time for someone to create a cheap and reliable croc-detector and tracker. With a mobile app. It would probably sell like hotcakes in Florida and Australia.
Hey agadmator! Just wanted to say that I love your channel. Thanks for all the awesome content! :)
I love that 90% of the comments are just quoting agadmator's hilarious phrasing. Your analysis and explanations appeal to the intellectual side, but your charm and positivity are what really bring us back for more. Keep sharing such great content!
Juicy pawn almost died of laughing on this
You do a great job you do with these videos. The pace you keep with your concise analysis as you go though the move options and strategies is very polished and professional. Never slow or bogged down You keep it moving along so well Excellent
Yes.. Clarity of speech is excellent... Well done Agdamator
We want the analyze of the dog
what?
he wants the dog's analysis @@martinet1985
The dog's analysis is only bhow bhow
The moment when you are so good that taking a pawn for a walk makes the world champion immediately want to capture it.
I certainly did enjoy it ... G4 move was pure genius ... Chucky is in the same league as Nezhy ... as far as craziness across the board goes!
g4 is like what Kasparov said: "sometimes u have to play a quiet move simply for the purpose of giving a chance ur opponent to blunder" (something like that) ;)
Nice quote, but I don't think g4 is quiet move. Compare with Kh2 for example.
What are you talking about?
g5 is a deadly threat!
Mato needs to clean his eyes but you don't have to follow him!
I enjoy watching your walk throughs, thanks
12:55
Everybody gangsta, until King becomes a queen
a well analyzed game with thoughtful, entertaining commentary
Love your channel thanks
I think it's a waiting move
I think that's it. Like he said in the video -- giving Karpov a chance to create a weakness
I think he might want to push g pawn to 5th rank so after h pawn takes it
Qh2 threatening Qh8 check mate
Dhir Agrawal NOOB
i'd say both: waiting and baiting.
Dhir Agrawal The issue with that is instead of capturing, you could always push h4.
Legend says the pawn is still on g4
i think it came with the idea of pushing G5 to create an open h-file for his rook to perhaps mate him
I can see him using the queen up the h file. rook and pawn hold king in place.
You nailed it, manly move, definitely one hundred percent pure High Test
I really enjoy you explaining why the moves are good or bad and why. I think it helps my game. Thanks for the videos
@13:45 - "such a manly move" hahaha, I love ur commentary (greetings from Bulgaria :) )
What a game, worth watching twice!
Really good and true motto :)) Congratulations!
Ivanchuk often plays with his opponent's psychology. It makes his playing so interesting.
Never mind. Got it. It helps to have a board infront while watching. Great lecture
Ivanchuk is the kind of guy that plays weird moves just to confuse his opponent and throw them for a loop
When on his game his play is the embodiment of wizardry, I swear
I love your chess channel, I've become something of an addict to it.
That was an interesting game for sure. It would've been nice if they had more time. I think the g4 was to play g5 next since Black's pieces are all defending and no active plan, W can try to pry open the h-file. If g5 hxg5 W might try Qh3 and B looks
defenseless.
awesome man, really awesome
The way you say things and how disdainfully you look at certain situations just cracks me up and I mean that in a good way.
I think one of the ideas of g4 was about pushing g5 to force hxg and then open the h file for the rook or the queen to try to mate the king
I love it!!!
G4 such a manly move
Well said sir
Thanks
Maybe he played g4 to be followed by g5. If h6 takes g5, then Qh3 looks threatening. If the pawn isn't taken, he can take black's h-pawn; then if gxh6 the g-pawn has a clearer path.
that's what i thought too. at least that's why i'd move the pawn there
I thought that too, he has clear mating threats.
Karpov will simply push h4. He wont capture.
ADITYA CHUADHRY If he pushes h5, then Ivanchuk will capture on f6 with the pawn and than there is a capturing on h5 with the queen
@@adityachaudhry7566 Ah but what if the g5 pawn takes on f6 in tandem with the rook to e6?
Maybe it was a neutral move to confuse Karpov. When you're very low on time you can still play very well if you have to react to something concrete e.g. a check or a mate threat. It's much more difficult if your opponent makes a neutral move like Ivanchuk did (or I have also seen random King moves) and you are the one who has to create something, you'll probably lose on time or make a cheap threat that yields nothing
I really love his dog, always very calm
Ivanchuk's game are best to watch.
I think the idea behind that g4 move was to put Karpov in even more time trouble by putting him to think what was the idea behind that move... there are moves that only Ivanchuk can think of, in my opinion he's the most creative player in activity today
"It's a very juicy pawn."
-agadmator
@agadmator I think Ivanchuk was going for g5, which would have resulted in h6xg5, thereby opening up the h file for the queen to cause mischief. You kind of hinted at it. The attack of the rook was not enough to destroy f6, because Karpov's queen can move to d8. But an attack of a g5 pawn + Ivanchuk's rook could have created a serious threat and forced Karpov to use up all his time to come up with a good defense. My guess is that Karpov freaked out over the possible g5 (after the pawn reached g4) and tried to stop it with Queen to f5. But then that gave Ivanchuk the opportunity to undermine Karpov's position in another way.
it was a good waiting move
Yeah that's what i thought. A risky one but a good one
Waiting move? Lol
What about g5 h×g5 Qh3?
great analysis! thanks! i believe that pawn move was a trap
agadmator: "It's a very juicy pawn!" :-)
Very funny the words used to describe Chuk's games and moves!!
It was a really great move at the end since he is trying to open up that H file to get a checkmate
The best words in chess: when agadmator says, "What's the idea with this move?"
G4 has multiple purpose, the first is to push forward, it can be hit only with h pawn as the other is pinned. Than move the rook to the open h file. It also makes more room to the king, supports queen with Outpost etc.
I thought a legend made the "quote". That made me laugh. A legend made it indeed
This is the funniest moment of any agadmators videos. I really dont know
Im a lowly 800 player but is it possible that he was trying to prevent ideas of Qc5, Rc2 and hxg3 somewhere while still preventing Rh4 , Qh2 ideas?
Awesome,great move!
A game is always more interesting if the analyser is agadmator :)
The idea of g4!! was to furher push to g5. If hxg5, then Qh3 with an unstoppable open line. A winning move, enough to drive black to resignation (i analyzed all possible continuations, black lose in all of them).
This move is a true gem, extremely well calculated and most importantly, very difficult to find. Especially considering that it was in a blitz game.
Well played Vassily, well played...

Any GM/classic games that ended in a draw but was exciting please, thanks
Great channel!
Agadmator mate! I love your videos and i ve recently subscribed too to not loose any. I play chess casualy and i watch your videos both for education and entertainment. One thing that keeps bugging me and i wanted to mention! Dont spoil the videos by mentioning the outcome early on or even in the tilte!! It would make em more interesting to see! Just my two cents and i sy this will all the respect and positivity i can!
Great and deep analysis with a crystal clear commentary, chapeau!
BTW, It would be nice to have your take on one the most amazing and craziest games of the 80s, full of sacks and traps: Krum Georgiev vs. Garry Kasparov, at the Chess Olympiad of 1980 in Valletta, Malta. (Georgiev Whites, Kasparov Blacks, Sicilian Najdorf. 1-0.)
+Ricardo Galarza Thanks Ricardo. I'm not familliar with this game, I'll check it out :)
Thank you, Agadmator. You'll enjoy it. And it also goes down well with your anecdotic style, since it's the touch-move-incident game that Kasparov tried to used when he was lost to disqualify his opponent, but the arbiters didn't buy it.
He played that g4 pawn just to make Kasparov sweat....a very manly move indeed!
g4!!! Such a beautiful move. Ivanchuck telling Karpov “You can’t move anything in this position because I have so many threats.” Just exceptional.
G4 to G5, obviously!!
Beautiful move; totally baiting the queen to leave her defense of the monarch...& inexplicably resulting in Karpov's imminent death. Extremely well played by Ivanchuk. A total masterpiece...👍🏆👌
12:53
You're correct in your analysis that the pawn cannot be grabbed, but black is not just losing the rook if he does, Qxg6 loses the game on the spot. Qd8+ follows, and if Qe8, Qxe8 is checkmate, and if Kf7, Re7 is checkmate. It's mate in two if the pawn is grabbed.
Interesting
can you maybe do a blitz/bullet tournament on lichess? I would LOVE to play :D
5:20 ,ivanchuk could have done a check mate in 2 moves if attack was developed right ,by placing the knight in a place where it can guard the queen so that the queen can move to the pwan in the diagonal position only if the move wasn't contested by the middle pawn ,thought it would have been something interesting to point out
I imagine G4 is to follow with G5 so that he can create a passed pawn on the right hand side. you have to capture twice for one piece and this makes it easier for the rook to come into play for white when trying to checkmate.
simply sick
I think the P-g4 move was a waiting move of sorts to eat more time off his opponent’s clock and to catch him off guard. Strange moves can get into your opponent’s head so they wonder what you are up to.
"It´s such a manly move" OMG jajajaja!!
Where do you get the overall players scores from? I just thought that it would be interesting to know, how did Karpov fare against Tal :). Thanks for the video by the way!
Good game!!
Ivanchuk is eccentrick, i think that he was thinking something along the lines " no good move, even game, everything protected, lets go with moves that i can do without changing anything important, maybe aomething will change" in other words, he was making this move like a important one, low on time karpow couldnt analize it properly, but he thinks that its one of moves that will make him lose, overthinking this in the end and making a blunder, and end up losing, more of a mind games in a good moment of the game
Nice haircut.
I think the move was to allow karpov to move one of his pieces as they were positioned well to defend in that position and when it was Karpov's move, he has to move something.
When he moved something, Ivanchuk could attack again
the great GM Ben Finegold said in his video lecture of this game that the g4 move is meant to just throw every last resource at the black king. obviously, if white's pawn gets to g5, you can't take with the pinned f pawn and if you take with the h pawn the white rook soon slides over to the h file, causing trouble for the black king. very much an Ivanchuk move though.
*Can you show us a game,* opening with the *Danish Gambit?*
Try google...
alo castiele, jebote tito :D
Does anybody play that at high level?
dobar ovaj šahist, baš sa gušton gledan njegova videa, lipo mi objasni koliki san noob u šahu, korak po korak :D
Because of D5 by black (can be played after taking first pawn, after taking second pawn, after taking third pawn and in other cases) the game goes into an easy drawn position, which black almost always prefers, so there aren't a lot of fun Danish Gambit games that GM's have played, unfortunately.
"now Qa6 uh, Ivanchuk wants to gobble the a7 pawn... It's a very juicy pawn." *smacks lips with lusty eyes*
A simple strike of genius that move
The king of quotes
Loved the "it's such a manly move"
"Brilliant commentary...brilliant commentary...brilliant commentary...and now why did Ivanchuk play g4? I really don't know."
Lmao!! Loved this :D
Nice quote
The g4 move is actually a very brilliant move that gives Karpov a chance to blunder. This move made Qf4 possible and seem logical, but it is a deadly trap even a master like Karpov would miscalculate. Ivanchuk knows Karpov is low on time and he knows that Karpov instinct would lead him into the trap. That is truly brilliant
thank you for the video as always. one small criticism for this video. at the end, queen F7 isn't the only mate threat, queen D8 is as well, which is the reason rook C7 isn't a defense to the F7 mate. maybe you said this and I missed it
