  • Featured is the chess game between Boris Spassky and Mikhail Tal from Tallinn 1973. In reply to Tal's Nimzo-Indian Defense, Spassky chooses the Leningrad variation. Tal's response with the Averbakh Gambit strips Spassky of central control. The Averbakh Gambit is a close relative of the Blumenfeld Gambit, with the main difference being the location of black's dark-squared bishop. On display is Tal's excellent depth of calculation. Before Tal executes his 15th move, he had to at least crunch the numbers up to his 22nd move. This is a model game for the Averbakh Gambit, and it highlights Tal's skill as both attacker and defender.

    the most amazing thing about Tal is that despite his combinatorial style he had in the 60s the longest unbeaten streak, which is to say that no one could truly out-calculate him over the board.

    The amazing part of this game is, if Jerry’s theory is correct, Tal’s calculation out from move 15 to 22. And how could Jerry’s analysis be incorrect? If Tal hadn’t done the calculation exactly, his 15th would have started a slow seppuku.

    • @LogioTek
      @LogioTek หลายเดือนก่อน

      According to Garry Kasparov, Tal didn't calculate (this is also why he was so good at blitz, his opponents didn't have enough time to calculate):
      GK: I worked a bit with Tal. Around 1980, he visited Baku, we played a couple of training games, and the chess contact wasn't lost until Tal's very last days. There was a blitz tournament in Moscow, one month before Tal's death. He looked horribly. But Tal was still Tal. In this blitz tournament, I lost my only game to him. I retaliated in the second round, but the fact was that until the very end, he still had this vision of games. He was the only one I knew who didn't calculate the variants, he saw them.
      EK: Can you elaborate?
      GK: We calculate: he does this then I do that. And Tal, through all the thick layers of variants, saw that around the 8th move, it will be so and so. Some people can see the mathematical formulae, they can imagine the whole picture instantly. An ordinary man has to calculate, to think this through, but they just see it all. It occurs in great musicians, great scientists. Tal was absolutely unique. His playing style was of course unrepeatable. I calculated the variants quickly enough, but these Tal insights were unique. He was a man in whose presence others sensed their mediocrity.

    • @LogioTek
      @LogioTek หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I study TALented (pun) people across various fields and just like Kasparov says, indeed there are people like Tal who "just see it all instantly" from their instinct and intuition. Their brains are wired differently from birth. It's not something that can be learned. You can scan these people with MRI while they are solving puzzles pertaining to their fields and you will find that compared to ordinary people, their brains have additional and surprising areas very active when they are presented with puzzles. This rare condition is called synesthesia. For example, some musicians can process audio information with their visual cortexes and that gives them an instant "glimpse" of ideas as pictures and colors and they can instantly and fluently improvise on any random sound input.

    Tal was only 37 years old but 12 years from his world championship title… Spassky was only a year past the fisher match so in his prime……. Always have to wonder in this type of Russian situation if the game had been agreed to beforehand….still… tal did have a period of great success during this decade…. Pretty game…
