Team MVP,

I’m excited to announce that the first 20 episodes of my analysis of Bobby Fischer’s My 60 Memorable Games are now available on my YouTube channel!

This series is a deep dive into Fischer’s most unforgettable matches, and it’s packed with insights into his legendary tactics, brilliant positional play, and his unique approach to chess. If you want to sharpen your game and learn from one of the greatest players of all time, this is the series for you!

Here are just a few of the jaw-dropping moments covered in the first 20 episodes:

In Game 2, Fischer unleashes a devastating Yugoslav Attack against Bent Larsen’s Sicilian Dragon. His precision and tactical awareness are on full display as he takes down a top contender. "Pry open the h-file, sac, sac ... mate!"

Game 16 brings us the wild “Four Queens” encounter against Tigran Petrosian. This rare and thrilling moment with four queens on the board highlights Fischer’s fighting spirit as both players navigated a chaotic middle game.

And who can forget Game 18, Fischer’s clash with Boris Spassky in the King’s Gambit? Fischer’s famous loss sparked his obsession with refuting the opening, but it’s a game filled with valuable lessons and rich history.

Each game is packed with instructional moments that both club players and seasoned competitors will appreciate. Whether it's Fischer’s tactical prowess, opening ideas, or endgame mastery, these episodes bring out the best of his chess genius.
