In the video “Greatest Games of Chess Ever Played – Part 2″ by GM Roman Dzindzichashvili, we are treated to an analysis of a game played between Vasily Smyslov and Samuel Reshevsky.

Smyslov was a Grandmaster, world champion, and one of the greatest chess players of all time. His chess legacy includes many opportunities that we can all learn from, including novelties in chess theory, strategy, and endgame play.

In this game, Smyslov methodically strangles Reshevsky. It started off in a Ruy Lopez opening and after a few minor piece exchanges, White quickly grabs the two bishops against Black’s two knights.

With seven pawns still on the board, though, is this really an advantage? How will Smyslov use this piece difference? Which move does Roman describe as the greatest move of the game? Watch the video to find out!
