Another game from Morphy. Where he shows how bad he was and how little he understood about this amazing game.
Morphy was an overrated CAVEMAN PATZER

He was tired of spotting material and winning with his eyes closed and wanted to make people feel like they had a chance.

In the second game Stockfish says that Black had a significant advantage and should have continued his caveman attack with 19....h4!
Megabase 2017 says this game was played in 1858. This was the only game which Schulten won. The fact that Morphy was able to beat his opponent 7-1 is enough proof that 17. ... bxc4 was merely an oversight. He crushed Schulten in the remaining games.

Significant advantage? You must be joking right? -.44 is not significant at all. Unless your Stockfish is also a caveman one.

Thanks for proving my point. Patzers lose games to oversights.

Is it hard to accept he was just NM strenght?
BTW, sorry if I offended any of the NMs out there, not my intention.

Morphy played originally and aggressively and seized the advantage with Black while he was crushing Schulten 7-1 in a match until he bobbled this game.
Got anything better?

Everyone makes bad moves sometimes, and play bad games sometimes aswell. So did Fischer, Kasparov, Capablanca.... You think they were patzers aswell? Why don't we reserve the term patzer for ourselves, eh? In any case I have consciously stopped looking at Morphy's games many years ago, because Tarrasch came along and he was a better, more modern version of Morphy.

Tarrasch was not a Morphy version, what non-sense are you talking? Tarrasch was from the Steinitz school.

Tarrasch was actually good, and as every player he had amazing attacking games, but I think what mainly separates Tarrasch from Morphy is his understanding about positional chess.

Schulten was even worse.
We are not discussing wether he was original or not, we are revealing the truth and calling him a patzer, he was FAR away from being 2400 ELO as the stupid CAPS said.

I had my search filters wrong. Actual score was 13-1.

100-1, we dont care, his inner patzer showed up in that game, where he stupidly played g6? which is an unnecesary stupid move that shows his poor understanding about chess, just to then hang mate in 2 with bxc4??

Do read this: http://www.chesshistory.com/winter/extra/fischer4.html
Probably Fischer and the 10 others he named are also Patzers for you. Question for you is, should we believe you, or somebody like Fischer on matters related to Chess?
"#1 Prove me wrong."
9... Qh4+ 10.g3 Nxg3 11.hxN Qxg3+ 12.Kf1 Qxf4+ and QxBc4
BTW: 10. ... Re8 ? 1-0

"He never blundered". LOL. Why should we listen to a delusional man like Fischer?
Prove me wrong.
