Robert Byrne vs Robert James Fischer
“The Brilliancy Prize” (game of the day Mar-09-2017)
US Championship (1963/64), New York, NY USA, rd 3, Dec-18
King’s Indian Defense: Fianchetto Variation. Immediate Fianchetto (E60)
1. d4 Notes from various sources. 1… Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. g3 c6 4. Bg2 d5 5. cd5 5.Qb3 maintains more tension. — Fischer 5… cd5 6. Nc3 Bg7 7. e3 O-O 8. Nge2 Nc6 9. O-O b6 10. b3 It’s hard for either side to introduce an imbalance into this essentially symmetrical variation. Deadeye equality also ensues afer 10.Nf4 e6 11.b3 Ba6 12.Re1 Rc8 13.Ba3 Re8 14.Rc1 (Stahlberg-Flohr, Kemeri 1937) — Fischer 10… Ba6 11. Ba3 After White’s 11th move I should adjudicate his position as slightly superior, and at worst completely safe. To turn this into a mating position in eleven more moves is more witchcraft than chess! Quite honestly, I do not see the man who can stop Bobby at this time. — K.F. Kirby, South African Chess Quarterly 11… Re8 12. Qd2 e5! I was a bit worried about weakening my QP, but felt that the tremendous activity obtained by my minor pieces would permit White no time to exploit it. 12…e6 would probably lead to a draw. — Fischer 13. de5 Ne5 14. Rfd1 “Add another to those melancholy case histories entitled: The Wrong Rook.” — Fischer ~ “This is very much a case of ‘the wrong rook’. One can understand Byrne’s desire to break the pin on the e2-knight, but this turns out to be less important than other considerations. Fischer spends a lot of time and energy analysing the superior 14. Rad1!, but still comes to the conclusion that Black can keep the advantage.” — John Nunn 14… Nd3 Now it’s all systems go for the Fischer rocket. — Robert Wade 15. Qc2 There is hardly any other defense to the threat of …Ne4. — Fischer 15… Nf2! The key to Black’s previous play. The complete justification for this sac does not become apparent until White resigns! — Fischer 16. Kf2 Ng4 17. Kg1 Ne3 18. Qd2 Byrne: As I sat pondering why Fischer would choose such a line, because it was so obviously lost for Black, there suddenly comes… 18… Ng2!! This dazzling move came as the shocker… the culminating combination is of such depth that, even at the very moment at which I resigned, both grandmasters who were commenting on the play for the spectators in a separate room believed I had a won game! — Robert Byrne 19. Kg2 d4! 20. Nd4 Bb7 The King is at Black’s mercy. — Fischer 21. Kf1 In a room set aside for commentaries on the games in progress, two grandmasters were stating, for the benefit of the spectators, that Byrne had a won game. Byrne’s reply to Fischer’s next move must have been jaw dropping! — Wade 21… Qd7 And White resigns. Fischer writes: “A bitter disappointment. I’d hoped for 22.Qf2 Qh3+ 23.Kg1 Re1+!! 24.Rxe1 Bxd4 with mate to follow shortly.”

Review the game with stockfish?
Thanks for this video. 😁 I was just watching the Bobby Fischer movies and documentaries a few weeks ago. ♚
Happy birthday Mr. Fischer
Happy Birthday Robert
There may have been better players in the history of chess but Fischer helped the popularity of the game more than anyone. Without him this channel may have never existed.
Bobby was the engine in those days
That performance by Fischer in the US Championship was insane: perfect 11/11, three and a half points above second place. What a monster, nobody could touch him.
Is there a better waste of time than chess in the world?
Bobby was his time ahead and a fantastic chess icone
Another GOAT is born on this day. The basketball Fischer. Happy 63rd birthday to great gentleman Zeljko Obradovic.
Why do I see all the brilliant moves when other people play but I can't find them when I play?
Nice picture of Fischer I've never seen that before. Where did you get it from? Looks Rare!!
Happy birthday Bobby Fischer. And thank you for analyzing this game, maybe my favorite Fischer game and I love hearing your take on it!
it would be great if those that comment games today did not use engine. I would be interested how they will look at a position without Stockfish.
This of my favorite games ever is literally like magic
I could be wrong about this, but I don't think Donald or Robert Byrne ever got past the IM ranking.
Lordy that was subtle.
Bobby Fischer was an insane Nazi. Stop celebrating him!
#suggestion Question to a vertical opinion video: who, in his prime, would win? Kasparov x Fischer. Fischer x Carlsen. Kasparov x Carlsen. Who you would include in this imaginary contest? Alekhine, Tal…
It's pronounced 'burn' FYI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGHZnN5Enfw Don't ask me why it is so, it just is
Check out this video on how Agadmator made Gotham the biggest chess youtuber https://youtu.be/GPmG07j7ImE
11:54 I don't know much about chess, but I can't see why Knight F3 is not good option here.
happens to me all the time. games are so complicated I get mated idk why the mate message doesn't come up.
Hi Agadmator, I just want to say that I love you and your videos, and I have been watching you for over 2 years now. You are a very calm and collected gentleman and your videos make me enjoy chess the way it should be. Wish you the best health and best wishes.
I truly believe Fischer was the best there ever was. He would have analyzed and beaten Kasparov and Magnus imo.
Beautiful game and analysis Agad! As for Capablanca, unfortunately he died on 8 March, his birthday is in 19 November
Just FYI "Byrne" sounds like "burn" 🙂
I just realized if Eric Hansen was slim, he'd definitely pass as a Fischer look alike.
I usually get mad when GMs give up too early but in this case it was kinda impressive how early Byrne realized he was screwed lol. Well playing resignation Robert. Great game Bobby and happy birthday
#suggestion, Supi X MVL, Pro Chess 2023, Najdorf, featuring b4!
My birthday too ! thanks !
Just got his book. you're YT channel is brilliant 🙂
Uh.. No one asked my opinion, but here is a thing. Losing after playing a game fairly is one thing, and being caught while cheating is another thing. Bobby Fischer might have a few issues, but I believe he showed us how creative and beautiful human chess can be. That's why he would be my all time favourite chess hero. Happy birthday Bobby Fischer.
It's a shame we simply can't trust doctors — as Fischers' early passing was treatable otherwise!
3 1/2 points ahead of the nearest player. Yikes.
One of Bobby's best games. Robert Byrne gets annihilated on the light squares.
Why didnt you post a game of capablanca tho
you forgot to show why the game is so good… Qf2 Qh3+ Kh1 Re1!!
The combinations were too crazy. The setup was incredible. Might I suggest you cover the game between Fischer and Ulf Andersson in 1971? Thank you.

Byrne Brothers be like: "Did we snatch this kid's candy someday? Why's he hunting us so ruthlessly!" HBD, GOAT!
"The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life" Paul Morphy
what do you mean by ONE OF his greatest?
as if there is any contest.
I love how Agad rightly praises Fischer regardless of his reputation.
never first
Thanks for your excellent commentary as well as your very polite demeanor.
You help make chess more fun for chess players of various skills. I look forward to all of you posts.
Happy birthday Bobby Fischer! God bless you for creating 9LX! We know you are looking down (or up) with pride on your one and only successor in classical time controls Wesley So!
Speaking of Wesley So…
Philippine women's chess #suggestion – WGM Janelle Frayna, the female Wesley So, upset Georgian GM (really GM not just WGM) Bela Khotenashvili at the 2022 world blitz.
There's a 12-move UNDERPROMOTION puzzle here.
[Variant "From Position"]
[FEN "6k1/6b1/1p1P3p/6pP/3pPpP1/p2NqP2/6K1/5Q2"]
1. Qd1 a2 2. Qb3+ Kf8 3. d7 Qe2+ 4. Nf2 Ke7 5. Qd5 Kd8 6. Qf7 Bf6 7. Qe8+ Kc7 8. Qc8+ Kd6 9. e5+ Qxe5 10. d8=R+ Bxd8 11. Qxd8+ Kc6 12. Qa8+ Kd7
For some reason none of the Philippine channels even cover this game. LOL. But Janelle did cover the game where e drew against Nemo, so maybe Janelle will cover this game later on.
P.S. Please help get Wesley So on Lex Fridman's podcast. See

I'm a simple man. I see a video from Agadmator, I click.
