Zug-Zwang with knight, rook, queen, & pawns still on the board...Does flipping the board & swearing in Russian count as resignation?

I’ve used romantic style chess to win lots of tournament games. A box of chocolates, a dozen roses and winks and blowing kisses really distracts your opponent. And depending on the TD gets you kicked out of a tournament, but you can’t win them all.

Well, you don't become a world champion without a reason. It's not a quality of Spassky's game, but more like quality of his character, that he couldn't stay on top for long.

Korchnoi played a simultanous chess in Switzerland and the president of my chessclub rated about 1800 ELO played against him. then korchnoi blundered an important pawn and played the others while the president was thinking and saw it will lose him a pawn. When korchnoi came back and saw the chessboard he asked: wenn sie erlauben, darf ich zug zurücknehmen? this means: if you allow it, can i take the move back? the president was shocked and said yes of course. afterwards korchnoi took it back and played on won the game of course never offered a draw or something icecold haha he really wanted to win every game or whats the name of this behaviour?

Spassky was a very strong player and a WC. He lacked a bit of steadiness and mental toughness, hence lost that match to Fischer in 1972

Mostly replicates Bernard Cafferty's annotations in "Spassky's 100 Best Games," (Macmillian 1972) - including the reference to the earlier Gheorghui game in this opening, the "creeping move" characterization of move 26 from Kotov, and Kortchnoi's zeitnot at the end. Seems to me unlikely that all of these elements would have been mentioned without having seen Cafferty's annotations. Credit for earlier work should always be cited.

Daniel, would you give your thoughts on comparion between Vishy Anand and Spassky? I have always thought they were very similar - tactical players who later developed a universal style, who prefer a classical setup of pieces, are gentlemen, are underrated WCs, and were succeeded by champions who can lay claim to being the greatest player of all time.

In 7:02 time you said white is winning. What is the reason that white is winning when black can make Kh8 move when black has two rooks and a bishop and white has two bishops and one rook if white takes the queen and black takes the rook on d8?

What a truly great game from Spassky. You also sum up his style so well. It always seemed that Fischer broke Spassky in 1972, as his results never seemed as good afterwards. Maybe he wasn't at his greatest when playing Fischer, but I think it was more that Fischer was unbeatable in a matchplay format, particularly at that World Championship. I am really enjoying this Spassky series, shows how great he was.

As far as I remember, Spassky himself admitted that, already in 1970, Fischer was stronger than him. In the Siegen Olympiads, everybody was expecting a Fischer win against him. But Spassky managed to exploit one of his few weaknesses: a certain inability to deal with unclear positions. In 1972, I believe Spassky, already under enormous outside pressure and poorly helped by the Soviets, broke down when he missed the win at game 4. He pulled himself up at the second half of the match, but then he was trailing Fischer by 3 points... (Yes, I'm a great fan of old Boris! I hope you won't shoot me for that sin!... 😀 )

Great analysis of the style of Spassky. Spassky was a great player of the Saemisch variation of the kings indian defense. And 26-Qb6 was what Kotov called in his book "Think like a Grandmaster" a "creepy move" a move that changes the significance of the position despite its insignificant appearance. Spassky benefited greatly from the system of match play for the candidates that replaced the old tournament style play that Fischer was against because that invited collusion against him since it tipped the balance of power toward the russian players. Spassky beat Tal, Korchnoi, Keres, Geller and Larsen in his road to the world championship. As always, great lesson for all the viewers of this channel.
