"pause the game and find best continuation for tal"
why bother dudes gonna sacrifice his queen for a pawn then turn his knight into a pegasus and fly over to checkmate or something anyway
hahahahha ...exactly😂😂
Domenick Palmieri When watching a Tal game one must turn of their rationale and logic, when finding the "killah move". i.e just play the opposite of sensible.
And moves his king forward
Absolutely hilarious.. I had to pause the video from laughing
this comment made me laugh out loud haha!
when Tal's game is reviewed, Mato asks for the "killa move", it is the most easy thing to guess: all you need to do is turn of the logic and play most ridiculous move and it will appear to be the best!
"You have one, tú, tree pieces!" His accent is really nice hahaha
Yep. That's how I spotted Rook takes Bishop.
Insanity. Pure insanity. Only Tal would exchange a queen for a minor piece with his only compensation being he can play on instead of settle for a draw lol.
A queen for two minor pieces and nasty attack. It wasn't that far off an equal trade on the face of it.
heelfan1234 you must see his game against bobstov 1957
I agree that it's a pretty ballsy decision. Though heelfan has a point. Overall the exchange comes to 1 queen for a bishop, a knight and a pawn. With the additional positional compensation of immediate attacking chances. Black also has the bishop pair and white doesn't have a dark-squared bishop, making black's king much more defensible.
I think I would of made the same choice.
@@thedaveastator7939 nah you wouldn't.
First "Critical Moment" in the game:
The only reason I knew Tal would sacrifice his Rook was that there was no way to sacrifice his Queen.
:'D
queen f7
😂
I think if Tal never picked up chess, he would be touring the world with his death metal band.
+elmohead he would still play chessboxing completely drunk between two concerts.
He would sacrifice his band to have a better band.
BlackmanTheJock best comment! LoL
Alberto decided that he had enough torture for the day ! That was the best quote so far Mato !
he decided he had enough torture for the day :) :) :)
After each Tal's game analysis by you, Mato, I understand more why you love his games so much. Another great video! Thanks!
Honestly, Tal has to be my favourite chess player ever. His attacking brilliance never ceases to amaze.
Tal would charge Hell if all he had left was a bishop, knight and a couple pawns! His are some of the greatest games. Tal and Morphy are my favorites because of their relentless attacks and counter intuitive style to sacrifice pieces to advance their attack.
Tal plays like he's god toying with you
for Tal,,, every piece is a queen, so what if he loses one?
every piece is a queen?!!! he just sacrificed his queen!!!!
He would lost killing!😂👌
Taking no risk is the biggest risk- Mark Jukerbarg.
The bizarre thing is that's true.
+Preston Thompson You are right. This is a bizarre truth.
Truly ingenius. I couldn't find any of Tal's moves. What a joy to see the board from his eyes... I wish he lived another 100 years to leave behind more gems like this.
Thank you for bringing this game to our attention. It has everything that you find amazing in a Tal game. With a lot guts. I don’t think that I would be sacrificing a queen to avoid a draw.
What a game by the great master Tal! The queen sacrifice left me stunned!
lol Alberto decided he had enough torture for today
Been a subscriber to Mato for years now, and I never get tired of his analysis of Tal's games. Hence, here I am 11 years later , looking at this game.
In that case I will not respond.
Thank you for all your comments today.
.... and Alberto resigneeeed.
Tal is a tactical genius
Thank you Mato. I have made your site my TH-cam home page because you are an excellent analyzer with a gold voice. Thanks !
Thank you
I went to upvote this and saw that I had already upvoted it sometime in the past. Thanks for posting and keep up the good work.
Thanks Mato for making what would other wise be very difficult to understand, easier.
Thank you Mato! Love your narrative, enjoy so much the pace of how you present the videos and learning quite a bit from the whole thing.
Tal's attack is fantastic after the opening; a unique way that he organizes his forces and plans the attack
And we have reached critical position of the game... Best commentator ever!
Thank you
Mato; I don't think Tal was taking any chances like you mention in this video. I think that Tal was actually thinking 7 moves ahead. Also, I would like to play chess against you, please reply back. Thanks.
Wonder if Tal ever played Short. Tal and short!!!
Thank you for your suggestion. I have a list of games which I want to do. But surly I can make videos of Rashid Nezhmetdinov. Very soon.
Thanks Mato. Very instructive and entertaining as always!
Your videos send me shivers down my spine when I hear "And in this position, [..] resigned" or "And [..] found.. a killer move!" .. The way you say it is just brilliant .
Tal: I got this. Have my queen, forget the draw!
Spectacular. Such an incredible combination coupled with incredible risk: Only from the mind of Tal.
Mato, another great video on the genius of Mikhail Tal...my God what imagination and gifted insight...I can't see any of what Tal sees.
Amazing attack by one of the last romantic heroes of chess, Mikhail Tal.
+Hamlet Elsinore
romantic heroes of chess ? mniam :)
Fantastic game and illuminating narration as always. Thanks, Mato!
Tal is no doubt one of the best players of all times.
Really brilliant, I enjoyed so much watching this game. Thanks Mato.
Thank you for a compliment
I'm not Tal so in the critical position my first thought was Kh8 to avoid the windmill.
your videos are very enjoidable, I like you analise some variations which makes it interesting, but not so many like other chanels, that makes it complicated.
Like the titles of your videos. Thank you for your work.
Please show this to Carlson and Anand
Dana Huffer Tal would most likely lose out in the opening. The advent of modern computer analysis enables an incredible opening depth to people like Carlsen and Anad. That's why top ratings get higher over time. Also, Carlsen has an in depth analysis of this game available.
If Tal was alive today he would have access to the same information in addition to his "killa moves." Please don't be a fool.
Wow I am loving these Tal videos. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite players.
You always post the most interesting games. It's a pleasure watching every video.
What a geat game! But Mato its a shame that one user always dislikes your videos! Your videos brought me back to chess, and its always such a pleasure watching them! And it seems like I am not alone with that thought! Please keep up your good work!
Mato your videos are amazing. I learn so much from them. Thank you :)
It's bold but it's so beautiful that it almost puts a tear in my eye.
He calculated and trusted in his ability
I can imagine one or two variation to checkmate. For Tal to see 4 or more variations to checkmate looking so many moves ahead.... I'm convinced he was Fischer's equal.
Jack D. Ripper If anybody can be considered Mohammad Ali of chess....it can only be Tal or Fisher
Nazir Lone lol Tal is do or die... Ali was hit and not get hit.. Ali was a technical boxer, but Tal was far more than just technical chess :) Tal deserves a Roy Jones in a boxing ring with brass knuckles instead of gloves, and also flying ability like a unicorn, don't forget the horn either :D
but I get your point :) it's not surprising to see an opinion like the greatest of chess was Mikhail Tal
+Nazir Lone Tal has a positive record vs Fischer. Tal has the upper hand. Yeah yeah yeah, you can only speculate that Fischer was still young when he got beat by Tal but that is only speculation. Truth of it all is Fischer was always Tal's child.
your videos are outstanding. Thank you!
First time hearing you chuckle 😊
Mato, i just want to say thanks for all your videos! I have always loved chess and played nearly my whole life, but now i am realizing there are killer moves in almost every game! Keep up the good work and thanks!
P.S.- More Tal games please:)
I have learned to play chess, for mato has shown me!
WE LOVE YOU MATO - The chess learning community
P.S. Please include more videos of Morphy and Polgar! I know you plan to make more videos of Morphy's games but I just want to reinforce how much they would be appreciated. Also, I don't know too much about chess but Polgar seems to have a one of the best intuitions about chess and I would really love to be exposed to more of her games if you are narrating.
i love Mato's sense of humor, even though i have to wait for him to say 'just kidding' most of the time. Keep up the great work Mato, i think watching your vids is the smartest thing i do everyday :)
thanks mato ive really enjoyed your games on tal i hope theres more to come.
děkuji
Thank you
Another masterclass from tal that left me speechless
Wow, brilliant attack as usual from Tal. What a genius!
Thank you for your comment
amazing review ! Thanks from a chess noob , not an ultranoob - thanks to you , Mato ! :) ! Have a great time !
Of course.
Wow i actuelly had the correct answer for once. Proud!
Love your vids, really captures the suspense of a good game.
Extraordinary game by Tal!
tal is a super tactical player we all enjoy watching his games
Wow I got the last move too. I'm on a roll today
As always good video. Keep up, Mato.
very nice narration lol. your explanation fits tal's game.
"Hi, this is Ma To! ... " :)
hilarious!
I wouldn't go for "half a point" because when i play i play to win or lose.
of course i'm not Tal so i'd lose, but hey.
What a player! My all time favorite Tal.
I'll take this as a compliment
Tal, Tal, Tal, Tal......I have so much Tal in my lap that I cant contain them!!! This is a divine mind who can play God in the olympus
If I have Tal's brain, I would not mind taking the risk for more than thousand times :D
once again, thanks Mato for your chess video. I learned a lot. :)
sensational play by Taal, at the end of the game White's Queen was in check mate
If only top pros today would call upon the spirit of Misha to inspire them to take such great and beautiful risks...
Tal is a beast...My favorite ever
doubled bishops can be very annoying, even before the end game, especially if the king is exposed in this way. nice video, mato.
Mato you're great! I really appreciate your analyses. If you could commentate on more Mikhail Tal games I would like that very much, I find his games are like works of art.
3:00 your joke got me again i almost scream no when you said would you move the king
Michael Tal is my favorite player of all time and I am sure Mato would agree with me:)
I wonder what Tal had for dinner. Maybe he had Tal Baht. (It's a Nepali joke after their power food, Dal Baht)
Stunning
great lessons and insight
Of all the games you have posted, this is my favourite. The games of Judit Polgar are very interesting but I very much admire Tal's grit and how he played the game to WIN. I believe Tal has the best winning record against Bobby Fischer of any other player.....not that is something.
so beautiful game!thank you
Because of Tal I love sacrificing pieces based entirely on intuition in 3 min blitz only to checkmate a few moves later.
Vishwanathan's games are coming up in may 2012.
Tal is a genius, what an amazing player.
Thank you Mato!
+MatoJelic thank you so much for what you do. I have a question -after 16. ... Rxe3, why didn't white play 17. Bxc6? If 17. ... Rd3 (threatening the White Queen) then 18. Bd5+. Would welcome answers from anyone.
Mikhail Tal was a fenomenal player!
Hi Mato, brilliant stuff and I love your analysis and presentations. Just was curious to know whether this was a sound sacrifice. Is there a refutation by the computer analysis? Is there a better move for White instead of 20. Qe2 (I can think of 20. Qxd3 and White gets a Rook for a Knight)
Sincere thanks for the good work that you keep doing!
Regarding your question at the end of the video,
i would play Kg8 2 times and grin at the opponent when playing Dxf7 to prevent the threefold repetition.
Aside from the "battle of minds" aspect also time may count later, in the highly unlikely ;) case i missed something.
Mato , God bless you mate
How did Tal know that Alberto would be reluctant to trade his queen, given that Tal had already given up his?
Crazy. Tal was on another level...
Ha! Rook takes Bishop! I found it. I would not have the cojones to actually play it, but from the build up Mato kind of made it clear that it would be a wild move. I can kind of see how it would work too.
When Tal sacrifice a piece, his opponent know that end is coming soon.
