Titolo: Un incontro fantastico

Quando si parla del migliore di sempre, spesso si conclude che un confronto
paritario è impossibile.
In passato, in effetti, la teoria delle aperture e dei finali, era
pressapoco scorretta se non inesistente. E poche erano le partite di alto
livello che si potevano analizzare (poche perlomeno rispetto a oggi).
Quindi, ad esempio, se il miglior Aliekhine giocasse col migliore Kasparov,
il russo avrebbe il vantaggio di conoscere meglio sia le aperture, sia il
finale, sia il suo avversario (avendone potuto analizzare tutte le partite).
Ma ciò è corretto solo in apparenza.
Infatti non si parla mica di fare giocare il migliore Aliekhine e il miglior
Kasparov da un giorno all'altro.
Come per ogni buon match che si rispetti, ci dovrebbe essere un tempo di
preparazione, e dei buoni secondi per entrambi.
Possiamo cioè pensare di dar un tempo di 12 mesi al miglior Aliekhine e al
miglior Kasparov prima del loro ipotetico match, e di assegnare loro vari GM
come secondi (naturalmente ipotizzando che siano di pari livello per
entrambi).
Così il migliore Aliekhine, assistito da vari GM, da vari database, e da
vari programmi per computer, potrebbe in 12 mesi prepararsi adeguatamente
nelle aperture, nei finali, e nello studio delle partite del rivale.
Tra l'altro, quando un genio al suo massimo splendore, ha l'opportunità di
usufruire di nuove nozioni, entra in gioco in lui un energia, un entusiamo,
un piacere di imparare straordinario. Quasi quasi l'handicap di Aliekhine
potrebbe rivelarsi un vantaggio.
Dunque, vi chiedo, dando queste opportunità ai vari campioni, chi tra :
Aliekhine, Kasparov e Fischer dimostrerebbe in ipotetici match di essere il
più forte ?

Naturalmente passo a esprimere il mio pronostico.
Secondo me l'approccio di Fischer negli scacchi, era quello di cercare
sempre la mossa corretta, la verità assoluta in ogni posizione.
Non a caso, egli usava sempre (o quasi) le stesse aperture, perchè
in esse vedeva il modo corretto di giocare.
Sempre secondo me, l'approccio di Kasparov negli scacchi, era quello di
cercare di "distruggere" l'avversario. A lui non interessava fare
sempre la mossa corretta, ma quanto quella più aggressiva, in grado di
demolire il suo avversario.
Non a caso la sua preparazione sulle aperture è sempre stata
eccezionale, e non la usava tanto per trovare la verità assoluta, quanto
per sorprendere e mettere in trappola il suo avversario.
Invece, l'approccio di Aliekhine negli scacchi è stato quello di creare
delle opere d'arti, delle combinazioni piene di stile e fascino.
Non a caso lui si lamentava dei suoi avversari, quando per le loro
mosse deboli gli impedivano di creare delle vere opere d'arte.
E per questo non c'è da sorprendersi se Fischer ha affermato di non
riuscire a capire il gioco del russo, dicendo che sembrava un gioco
valido solo per lui.
Era come se la volontà creativa del russo, facesse nascere dal nulla
creazioni splendide.
Pertanto in un ipotetico match avremmo tre filosofie a confronto al loro
massimo livello : scacchi come scienza (approccio di Fischer), scacchi
come lotta (approccio di Kasparov), scacchi come arte (approccio di
Aliekhine).
A me piace pensare che alla fine avrebbe vinto Aliekhine, perchè vedere
gli scacchi come arte, desiderare di creare qualcosa che vada al di là
della singola partita, e che resti immortale, permette di avere accesso
a un energia e un entusiasmo quasi "infiniti".

Contraddizione o lapsus? Questi vantaggi li avrebbe l'altro, non il russo.
Alex

 paritario è impossibile.
[...cut...]
Sottoscrivo tutte le tue argomentazioni.
Ma la mia opinione è che non si possa comunque fare questo incontro
fantastico. Le discipline e le tecnologie di oggi e di 100 anni fa non sono
le stesse e quindi non si possono misurare i loro effetti e i loro sviluppi
con lo stesso metro (l'incontro appunto).
Credo che sia come voler individuare il più intelligente (inteso come
possibilità di calcolo neuronale) fra quel genio di Eistein mentre elaborava
la sua teoria sulla relatività e quel "contadinotto" che, a suo tempo, mise
insieme tre pezzi di legno e fece rotolare la prima ruota.
Sempre IMO.

 Quale dei due non è russo?
Di nascita non è russo Kasparov. E' Azero, di Baku.

Lasker, e non capisco perché non lo prendi in considerazione. Fece quello 
che fece senza che esistessero i database, figuriamoci con quelli a 
disposizione oggi dove sarebbe in grado di arrivare...
Valerio 

 l'Azerbaigian erano distinti e facevano parte dell'Unione Sovietica.
In un tripudio di fiscalità, potremmo anche ricordare che la nazionalità
nella ex Unione Sovietica non era determinata dal luogo di nascita, ma da
quella del padre. Quindi, si poteva benissimo mantenere la nazionalità
uzbeka pur essendo nati e cresciuti a Kiev.
Just my 2 cents, OT come al solito visto che in materia di scacchi continuo
ad essere un pippone malefico ;-)
Ciao

Mi sembra una domanda senza risposta, del tipo, č nato prima l'uovo o la 
gallina?
:-)
Non ha senso confrontare tanti campioni in un ristretto lasso di tempo: 
ognuno č stato il piů forte del suo "tempo".
Confronti simili sono solo per gli amanti della fantascienza........

Ma perchè Fischer non è primo ?
è universalmente riconosciuto come il migliore di tutti i tempi. 

 è universalmente riconosciuto come il migliore di tutti i tempi.
Universalmente non significa dai suoi fan, significa da la gran parte degli
appassionati, che nello specifico favoriscono invece Kasparov. In ogni caso
al primo posto della lista c'è chi ha avuto il massimo nel suo miglior
triennio, massimo di punti del sistema Chessmetrics, che non vuol dire
essere stato il migliore di tutti i tempi, anche se coincide, un questo
caso, con quello che universalmente viene riconosciuto. Chiaro?

Si, il sistema è chiaro, ma dato che non mette Fischer al primo posto è 
probabilmente inutile e non non veritiero.
Kasparov lo favorisci tu!
ciao! 

 Kasparov lo favorisci tu!
Io, e una gran parte degli scacchisti. Tu puoi anche dire che non è così, ma
la realtà non cambia.
Alex

 ciao!
E' sempre simpatico vedere un *universalmente* buttato li' cosi' solo
per dimostrare che Fischer è il migliore di tutti i tempi quando invece
non è affatto
considerato in questo modo. Bellissima anche la seconda parte della
serie il pallone l'ho portato
io e percio' se non giochiamo come voglio io me ne vado a casa con lui
;)
Ciao.

A mio parere i risultati sia di Kasparov che di Karpov su un periodo
ben più prolungato sono superiori a quelli di Fischer per quantità e
qualità.

Quasi ovvio e non solo quelli di Kasparov e Karpov , Fischer rimarrà
sempre un enigma
incompiuto a causa del suo prematuro abbandono, fortissimo si ma quanto
?

Io credo che il mio prossimo sia liberissimo di pensare che Fischer
possa essere stato il più grande di tutti i tempi, e non mi sento di
escludere che possano anche avere ragione.
Quello che mi sento di escludere è che si possa affermare che questo è
stato dimostrato risultati alla mano.
Ci sono due grandi interzonali (anzi, qualcosa meno perchè in uno si è
ritirato) ed un ciclo dei candidati + finale pazzesco, ed abbiamo
quasi finito: credo che per quantità e qualità le sue vittorie in
torneo siano inferiori a quelle di qualsiasi altro campione del mondo,
ed a molti che questo titolo non l'hanno mai sfiorato.
Se togliamo l'ultimo ciclo mondiale quello che resta della sua
carriera non è esattamente impressionante.

Concordo con te che la sua carriera sia stata un pò limitata confrontata con
quella di altri campioni del mondo...
Quello che ritengo però impressionante è la qualità delle sue partite, della
sua preparazione in apertura (in un'epoca precomputer) e della sua
tecnica...
