Re-Engineering the Chess Classics: Mariotti-Polugayevsky

Re-Engineering the Chess Classics: The Italian Fury! Mariotti-Polugayevsky Budapest 1975 1-0 is the second video of the new series by GM Matthew Sadler. To celebrate the publication of his new book (written together with his childhood coach Steve Giddins) GM Sadler is examining a series of classic games – just as he did in the book – using the creative engine analysis techniques described in “The Silicon Road to Chess Improvement”

talian player Sergio Mariotti, Italy’s first grandmaster whose love of gambits and attacking play earned him the nickname (given by the British Chess Magazine apparently!) of “The Italian Fury”!

This game is another wild Mariotti attack that confuses a battered Polugayevsky who starts move 36 with 2 extra pieces and reaches move 41 with a 4 pawn deficit!
