- One of the most magnificent moments in chess history. Akiba Rubinstein's masterpiece, where he accumulated immense energy by exerting tremendous pressure on open files and diagonals, setting the stage for a stunning queen sacrifice, described by the World Champion Max Euwe as 'one of the most astonishing moves in chess history.' Join me as we unravel the brilliance behind Rubinstein's strategy and explore why this game is considered a true masterpiece.

Great video, thanks! Interesting they list the location as "Mahrisch-Ostrau," the German name for Ostrava. By 1923 Czechoslovakia was an independent state (independence from Austria-Hungary in 1918), so you would expect them to use the Czech name "Ostrava" for the location. This was played in the summer of 1923, just a few months before Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch. So much turmoil was about to hit Europe, crazy times.
Really one of the best if not the best Chess channel on CZcams !!
Akiba Rubinstein is one of the greatest chess players of all time.
Fabulous video! The level of detail and your explanations of possible continuations was perfect for me.
Excellent game and analysis as well ❤, thanks.
Thanks for watching.
Best channel!! Thanks!!
Really enjoying your analysis of great chess games of the past. I especially appreciate the discussion of the results of alternative moves
Best chess channel by far.
Beautiful game and wise commentary as always friend!
Love the way you explain more moves in addition to the moves that are played in the games I’m still a beginner so that stuff is really helpful
the monster rubinstein !!
Excellent commentary and game analysis. THANK YOU😇
My pleasure.
thanks for explain this game so well
My pleasure.
Magnificent 👏👏👏👏thank you! 👌
My pleasure!
Fantastic
Again thanks for the in-depth expaination. Great play by Rubenstein, he stole my opening and improved it! ;)
Thanks for watching.
One of the few moves from historical games that I remember, along with Evergreen & Opera.
Great videos!
Thanks!
Rashid Nezhmetdinov vs Oleg Chernikov is the greatest quin sac in history, there is no debate about that
Marshall and the gold coin game?
@@EdMcF1 That one is up there, fantastic, 100%, but Rashid Nezhmetdinov vs Oleg Chernikov queen sac on a 14th move without any visible compensation, come on
I'd say Smyslov vs Liberzon 1968 is the greatest of them all.
@@andro99991 It is beautiful sac. Its a tactically rich pos, deep in the middle game but Nezhmetdinov did it on 14th move in an opening phase and he didnt play against my uncle, he played Oleg Chernikov
What a game! Thank you!
My pleasure!
This is the first video that I have watched from your channel and I’m impressed about the simple explanation, exploring various lines and continuation. Great work brother. Love and respect from India 🇮🇳
Thank you for your kind words.
thanks for explanation ❤
My pleasure.
Qx+b6? Not sure at all. Yay
It’s what I thought at first, but the knight attack and the rook on the 7th rank was the missing piece to checkmate. Really magnificent.
It was all based on intuition. This is way too genius for my level. Wow.
Rubinstein is one of my chess heroes.
great style! one small comment- a question mark at end of title would have been the candle on the icing on the cake. You support the idea that it is the 'greatest' with the quotes, so it is not hyperbole (recently unfollowed another chess channel because the titles were getting silly with exaggeration), just adding a little question mark would work better for me.
Rubinstein's play is really genial, I don't like black's play very much though, it is too passive. I would have played d5 as black in the 3rd move for starters.
New Fan :)
Love classical games. Btw can you do another karpov game? Or maybe Nimzowitsch vs sultan khan
Thanks a lot for your recommendation. I just played through the game between Sultan Khan and Nimzowitsch and really liked it, so I'll definitely make a video on this game.
@@chesswisdom awesome
21:30 climax or culmination would have sounded gooder
your mic is very sibilant prone and sharp
You sound like Davie 504. Checkmate!
Where is the sacrifice?
Couldn't you see the white Queen chilling in front of a black pawn for multiples turns ??
@@xmedssh7927 Where is the sacifice?(c). Although many people believe that Queen's gambit declined is a gambit.
@@williamblake7386 this is not religion. i dont believe queen g. d. is whatever; is a name for a possible answer in the opening to queen gambit; to differentiate from the accepted choice. about the word,gambit. that's just the name use whenever a player makes a sacrifice in the opening; usually to gain tempo; most of the time a pawn, but some times a minor piece. so gambit is a form of a sacrifice. you use the word gambit wether the sacifice is accepted or not. it's okay to say sacrifice, even if the sacrifice is not accepted. some prefer to be specific namig such as pseudo-sacrifice. some G.M's prefer use the word sacrifice just for the long-term strategic basis type of sacrifice. spielmann (rudolf) is the author of a magnificent chess book; where he classify all the different types of sacrifices. and; i agree with alex konidakis, this is one of the best youtube chess channels!
@@ayaxorozco449 Sacrifice is either happened or not, it's THAT simple. "gambit declined"=gambit did not happen. sacrifice declined=sacrifice did not happen.
There was no sacrifice in this game, just an attempt, which was declined.
So "the greatest sacrifice" is a lie.
No, it's not ok to say just "sacrifice" or "gambit" when they were declined. You NEED to add the word declined to describe the situation.
You(and others) turned the question about meaning of words into religion, where people must believe that sacrifice happened even it does not.
The greatest was by Frank Marshall
The greatest move in chess history must be P-K4.
Really, it must be.
It is the most copied move of all time.
The guy who first thought of it is, sadly, lost to history.
♟️ Chess is a dead god Caissa 🌹🌚👍 Rest in the Good News 🌹 okay bye
Lose adjectives. Too much hype try to sell this video.
Too much talk
