I really liked that format when the players repeated some of their thoughts. For me it was so live in those days. Thanks for the upload!

When the grandmasters were dignified and sophisticated gentlemen, with character and personality. And when computers had not yet alienated and ultimately destroyed human chess. Wistfully I enjoy looking back at those humane times through these videos.

Nice to run into another old man chess player such as myself! Thanks for posting that Brown vs Nunn game recently! Unlike these youngsters we had to rely on Fred Reinfeld, MCO and books from various long passed world champions for our chess education:).

Ha ha ! You mean the "Target Book Of Chess". by Mr Reinfeld. I still have a copy of that ! My first chess book (which my Mum found, covered in cobwebs, in our loft !) was the "Easy Stages" book by E.G.R. Cordingly. 😀

4:56 - Ol' Bob forgot that they're supposed to be recording their thoughts in "real time" and use the present tense, and someone in the recording booth nudged him and reminded him to use the present tense.

Mr Korchnoi might not have very pleased to see him accepting one here after only 14 moves !

It all feels so slow, smooth and civilized. I was a youngster in those days, can relate to it:)

This game's cautious symmetry featured zero pawn breaks. Open it up guys!! I like f4 at one point.

I wonder, since Byrne knew he must take chances, when he moves the Q to the a5 met by qd2, why not bring the Knight to b4? Obviously can be defended by Rc1, but then NXd3. Forking the R and King, leading to taking the Q. Am I missing something, I mean obviously I am, but since you have to take chances, go for it. Thanks for the video, excellent.

Nb4 is met by 0-0, and then the d3 pawn is defended, and the b4 knight is pinned and doesn't have any jumps with check to break the pin. Of course there are other ways for black to break the pin, but he hasn't achieved anything, and probably he just hurt his position with that Nb4 playing for cheap tricks move
