    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.

    “The defeated player eagerly pleads for "yet another battle," saying, with admiring frankness, "It is a pleasure to be vanquished by you." And the lists are once more entered afresh. There is no shadow of weariness on the smooth young brow. No - Paul Morphy could play on all night.”

      Dunno if I heard this in chess, but learn the rules before you break them. Not pushing your pawns infront of your king is the most principled way to play unless the position requires otherwise. Its like how you are taught to never give peices for free but eventually learn to sacrifice.

    Experts who have analyzed Morphy's games have suggested that in today's environment he'd rate about 2650, which is in very solid GM territory but hardly capable of winning a world championship. Such analyses, however, neglect to mention that Morphy was merely playing well enough to win his games, while only showing brilliancy maybe a quarter of the time. If we could somehow transport Morphy to the here and now, and give him a year to catch up, I'm more than sure that he'd crush Carlsen and everybody else. Morphy was able to grasp complex chess ideas quickly, and really is the father of modern chess theory. I'm not even sure he'd need a computer to help him improve -- just some books and maybe a few tutorials with masters of current opening theory and middle-game tactics. The man was the purest natural student of the game ever. Nobody else comes close.

    • @SpliffieBee

      @davidanderson_surrey_bc Před 3 lety

      @@SpliffieBee You are quite right. In that sense he foreshadows Viswanathan Anand, who in his prime also tended to finish long games much more quickly than his opponents. One can imagine how today's top players would have had their patience tested against 19th-century opponents who felt they had all the time in the world to make each move.
      One could also compare Morphy to ice hockey's Wayne Gretzky, who was able to rack up unimaginable (and unreachable) goals and assists because he knew where the puck was going to be and then getting there to meet it.

      Morphy came out of nowhere. Fischer didn't. Morphy story is much better. To get anyone to notice him, they had to form a chess congress tournament in America just so that he could get to play Anderssen. It would have been even more amazing story if he went straight to Anderssen and destroyed him as a total unknown say like in one of these exhibition matches. The Morphy saga is truly unbelievable. He was not trained by anyone. All self taught in obscurity. If he was born in any time period, with his talent he would be on top of the chess knowledge and still destroy anyone. In my mind, he's clearly the greatest player of all time and I don't see that changing in the future.

    Another Amazing Morphy game and yet he resigns within 3yrs !! Perhaps he didn’t find Chess enough of a challenge, he couldn’t face continually winning, he had beaten the best, it was a fun ‘gap year’ but he was tired of travelling and being feted everywhere he went. It was now time to get a ‘real job’, with everyday challenges, that his parents would approved of. Perhaps Borjn Borg faced a similar feeling of ennui after 5yrs of consecutive wins at Wimbledon. For most of us, who struggle to only succeed occasionally it’s very difficult to understand how he could retire so (apparently) without remorse.

    Hi agadmator! Did you know Paul Morphy wrote his score card like a sentence? Pawn to the Kings 4th house. Any chance you could find out more about this? Maybe a photo of one his old score cards. I heard this from Yasser commenting on the Sinquefield Cup Round 5. It would make a great addition to your saga! Love the video's keep up the great work!

      True because he reached that level pretty much by himself. So he was the greatest chess genius of all time, if not the best chess player since Magnus, Kasparov etc clearly play better but they had coaches, decades of opening theory, engines, seconds, etc.

    • @andrujo

      Most talented, that is!
      The GOAT, having all in account, must be Carlsen who is frequently (and I think currently) #1 (and WC) in all time formats and holds the greatest deeds within this engine era of ours.

      I think he and Capablanca were the greatest natural talents. Determining "best" depends on how one defines best. In classical chess, Carlsen's accumulated knowledge, determination and confidence would be tough for anyone to beat but put Morphy and Capa into a Fischer 960 tournament or some other alt-format and I would not bet against them.

    For anyone interested, Black's strongest defense against the Bc4 King's Gambit is 3. Nc6. Best play in this line goes 3. Bc4 Nc6 4. d4 Nf6 5. Nc3 Bb4 6. Ne2 f3 7. gxf3 d5 8. exd5 Nxd5 9. O-O Nxc3 10. bxc3 Bd6 11. Ng3 O-O and black has an edge of -0.7 or -0.8.

    Why is King's gambit not so popular today?

    • @giriiyer3968
      @giriiyer3968 Před 3 lety

      The reason, I believe is bcoz king's gambit produces such complex lines,the variations keep on diverging with each passing move. The player player playing it is not sure about the continuation after some time and the opponent is also bound to blunder. So,in my opinion are avoiding the king's gambit. But,my opinion alone.
