He was not born with three fingers, he sacrificed two
Omfg =]]
Genius
You deserve something
Brilliant sacrifice
This is the best internet comment I have ever encountered.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
In that same tournament in Barcelona in 1992, Tal's last ever game was a win vs Akopian with white. His final move in that game was Ke1, upon which his opponent (who was getting mated) resigned. After such a momentous career, Tal's final move in a tournament game was the King returning to his home square.
I'm not crying, you are
Poetic
Truly beautiful
Wasn't his last game vs Kasparov?
I love this view
Here's my best combo playing like Tal, sacrifice then resign.
I mean me too* damn autocorrect
Need more amph
I like to say I'm half-Tal. Great at sacrificing. Just need to work on that "winning" thing.
But why is levys rating much higher than many gms like even the top150 in thw world?
@@jaywolfenstien cool
Yes Levy we want more content like this! There is many serious players here who want to review those interesting historic games, like you did before, and honestly Levy, you already made it to the top on CZcams) Now with such popularity, I believe you still gonna get 500k on those vids) Chess is about passion, and you are very passionate on what you do
agadmator be like : 😕❓
Being the most popular doesn't make him the best - agadmator
levy has its extraordinary comedy and brilliant style - i like both @@sublimeade
there is many?
Levy was making fun of the 2200s on his podcast with Fabi, but his fide is also only 2200, seems delirious.
you know it's gonna be a banger when Tal is involved
+ no levy never fails comments
His audience is full of little kids
@@osamataha2269levy’s audience never fails to love/hate the “levy never fails to” joke
you know it’s gonna be a banger when there’s brilliants all over the thumbnail
it would be if there was no gothanchess
i think many people would appreciate if you continue to make those historical videos, i personally enjoy those
Yeah keep the history flowing, I love chess because it connects you to millions of players, dead or alive.
I would
💯
Big second. This was really cool.
Yes these are my favorite!
Him getting out of his eventual deathbed to beat up the Michael Jordan of chess in basically his prime will always be inspirational to me
Cant spell immortal without TAL
He's TALented
From July 1972 to April 1973, Tal played a record 86 consecutive games without a loss, and between October 1973 and October 1974, he played 95 consecutive games without a loss. Absolute Wizard
kramnik would find it interesting
That's my GOAT right there
Dont let Kramnik see this
@@txdang2009yeah, unless if he realize that computers were dumb compared to humans
I really love the triangle between Mikhail Tal , Rashid Nezmindhov ( sorry can’t spell it ) and bobby Fischer . They were like rock paper scissor . Bobby ( Stone ) , Mikhail ( Paper ) , Rashid ( Scissor ) . Each of them cancel out .
Personally, historical chess is my favourite type of content from this channel, so I'd love to see more of it, even though I understand that it probably wouldn't perform as well as the other videos.
If you like historical chess, would recommend Agadmator.
agreed
i think these are mostly for intermediates and advanced players...i dont think many beginners would find interest in this compared to other beginner series videos of levy..so i think it might not get the views but it would certainly get true hardcore chess fans what they need
As a latvian, I feel very satisfied right now, knowing that Tal is a legend. I had heard his name before, but didn't look into his past too much. This video gave me great insights and someone to look up to now
One day I’d like to travel to Latvia just because of Tal :)
@@rdsls100 nice, where are you from?
He was.
Tal is legendary.
there's a monument of him in Riga, just went to Latvia for him. it should be more recognized tho
Morphy and Tal were both spoken of highly by the local masters here in NYC. Many other names like Capablanca and Alekhine came up often and of course everyone loved Nimzowitsch but the heaps of praise were not for Spassky, Karpov, Kasparov, Korchnoi, or Fisher or any of the contemporary giants we saw in the headlines. It was all about Tal. Thanks for giving us some perspective on why this was.
Tal is the person that inspired me to get into Chess, way back before the chess boom. Whenever I can, I sacrifice like he does. More of this kind of videos please.
Same. Agadmators videos about him were great
hahahaha, i too sacrifice like Tal, only that I lose my games XD
@@f.d.3289 lmao
Do your sacrifices work?
I got into chess by my friend 😅
At 15:08 the computer evaluets Be3 as 0.0, but while Levy is explaining that Tal finds moves that the computer needs to reconsider and evaluate. At 15:50 when he comes back to Be3 it is +4.4 for the exact same position.
It took Stockfish 42 SECONDS TO EVALUATE THE POSITION CORRECTLY!!!
DAMN! Tal was truly a GENIUS!
thank you for pointing this out. this is just another testament to Tal's brilliance.
thanks for this comment, it's such a good catch in the video
It's being processed in a web browser but yeah, you're right it's pretty amazing
it shows +6.6 at 48 depth
@@yashamonker yeah! It just keeps on increasing the longer you allow it to run. That is insane
12:35 "His moves are so god level, stock fish needs time to calculate them" You dont need a second guess who is Levy talking about. Thanks for this mesmerizing video.
As much as I enjoy tournament game recaps, I love this type of content. It shows the artistic side of chess, and you can clearly hear the passion in your voice as you describe this inspirational game.
All memes aside, this type of chess content is what gets me into playing chess. I remember watching that first video of Magnus speed chess then off to some historical legends with many brilliancies that kick start my love of chess. Thank you for this type of content.
same!
Yes more historical games please!
I would love if you could maybe, maybe look at Bobby Fisher's win in 21 moves against R. Byrne? It is such an interesting game and I would enjoy watching your take on it.
He's done that
@@luigivercotti6410 can you Post the link? I can only find a video on the game against Donald Byrne (Video is called something along the lines of: the game of the century)
he already made a video on it
@@loaygaming2023 can you provide me with a link (or video title)? I tried to look for it, but can only find the game against Donald Byrne
Absolutely love the historical content, Levy! The current stuff is great too but it sometimes feels like the Chess News, while the historical videos feel more like documentaries. They’re timeless, they’re awesome, and please keep up the excellent work!
We need a video on the best IM of all time, Rashid Nezhmetdinov, Misha's second. He had a positive score against Tal
Its insane that stockfish literally changed its mind after levy went to the variation and played out the defense stockfish thought it had. tal is my favourite player ever
This is the most confused eval bar ive ever seen
@@lorkano true
It is funny to see. But I think part of it is. Stockfish evaluates both sides of the board obviously so when the eval jumps or drops its cuz it sees a move to take advantage but then the real player makes a different move messing everything up
It also just doesn't see far enough on web browser lol
@@TheH3LLP3R actually there where moves which tal played which made stockfish think yes you are correct about the atack I missed this sequence because I didnt think about sacrificing 3 more pieces to get wining endgame or game also this is cloud stockfish stockfish 16 a lot of times says Tal moves are better then the ones cloud fish thinks are best like the game where he saced 4 pieces in Khan defense or the one in few of the sicilian games. Like C4 being best move by stockfish 16 and mistake for cloud fish
@IamnotfromUSA it's like a yes but no thing. Yes stockfish doesn't see Tal's sacrificing play as advantage at first because no, it sees 5 other ways of winning without sacrificing 2 or 3 pieces but once Tal does (and the opponent makes the inhuman but "incorrect" moves) then stockfish does agree
I love these videos! You should make one about Paul Morphy not just the opera house game but about the hundreds of other games in which he systematically destroyed his opponents with his almost futuristic understanding of the game. I especially love his games against Anderson.
Yes - we need more Morphy!
I would love more Morphy. His games are phenomenal but a lot of the content covering his games (Outside of stuff like the Opera Game) is obscure to find, or dry as all hell.
I can already play the Opera Game from memory in its entirety... I need more.
@@ProtanlyCheck out Agadmator's Paul Morphy Saga
Yes Morphy was incredible, I love his games against Barnes!
It is absolutely understandable that this kind of content is just not for the masses and it will underperform on the stats, as not many people enjoy such deep dives/love historical chess facts. With that said, I can tell you that personally this kind of content contains probably one the truest, most unfiltered Levy we can hope for. You just show a different level of passion and enthusiasm when making these videos, they are also the reason why I got so into your channel back in 2020. Please keep making at least one every now and then... some of us love them. And I can tell you love them too :)
These videos of historical games are actually my favourite videos of yours. It's unfortunate that they apparently don't perform very well, because the content itself is really high quality. Thanks for making these.
I miss historical chess deep dives and opening videos, so I am really happy to see this.
Same
Mikhail Tal being so good even back then, that a chess engine up to todays standards had to change it’s mind after it was shown how it’s defense didn’t hold up like it thought, that’s genuinely insane that a player was that good. No doubt one of the absolute best players ever.
Maybe its just wasnt top chess engine levy used
@@ctaplliekjiacchuk6478 Stockfish is the top chess engine and is always used in these analyses.
@@RaniaIsAwesome you can apply the same software but with more ressources involved. Longer variations calculated in the position, helped by using the computer's memory, and of course, it takes more time. Which causes to slow the rythm of the video.
that doesn't make it any less impressive, that a top chess engine was second guessing itself@@felipevilu5351
@@felipevilu5351 The fact that it takes the best chess engine being put on a high evaluation and given several minutes to think in order to find his moves is in itself a testament to his greatness.
Please, more videos like this.
It's so interesting to watch them casue in the end, most of us aren't pros who prepare openings with stockfish, and it's nice to see the games that were played before stockfish times.
Also, keep the evaluation bar off sometimes, really makes it more interesting
completely incredible to see tal in action ! especially with your coverage !! :D dont stop the good stuff like the history of chess, its important and you make it interesting !
I personally enjoy this kind of historical chess games. For me, you tell the story likel a action movie or something, it's so hype.
Outrageous?? Did u wanted to use some other word my man?
you should watch English lessons on youtube instead of chess
My bad, I was kinda high💀
Apology accepted, what were you high on?@@leoksu
I very very rarely comment on here but these are the type of Chess videos I love to watch! Tal was a chess Druid - that why "You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5, and the path leading out is only wide enough for one". Was also great to see the passion coming through on the commentary - more of the same please 🙂
I love these historic chess videos, they're my favorite content. The way these old masters played was so fascinating. I love watching these hyper aggressive games where the refutations haven't been fully discovered and people just didn't know how to handle the pressure!
By far one of my favourite of types of videos, especially since this is the legend Tal. Fantastic video, loved the emotion and passion you showed, it is insanely difficult to make a chess game feel like a Nolan movie, but Gotham is a master at what he does.
I love historical chess content. Please keep making more of these
Honestly you should cover Tal more often.
He truly was revolutionary and helped get me into chess.
Bonus if you can find tal vs fisher
I love all of Tal's game. I am too low levelled to understand his moves but it always lights a fire of excitement and enthusiam in me. I cannot express my respect and curiosity for his games.
Absolutely magnificent play by Tal. What an incredible genius. Please do more historical games, it’s great to see your analysis of legends like Tal.
I'm an absolute chess dummy, but I love your covarege of games and especially the stories behind them. ngl the moment you mantioned Tal laughing after Fisher's move made me so interested, would love to see that game covered one day ^^
Agadmator has covered all of Tal's games vs Fischer. I believe that Levy is talking about one named "The power of Tal's smile" or something like that
I was 1500 elo before watching Gotham, now after a few months I’m glad to say I’m now 100 elo 💪💯
Its crazy how Mikhal Tal defeated Garry Kasparov
in 18 moves and beat bobby fischer he is the goat
Almost peak Kasparov as well! A few short years later, the entire world took on Gary in a correspondence and lost.
in 18 moves.
And then died a month later.
@@NotabiProFischer was still young at the time. They had a lot of mutual respect for each other and when Tal was in the hospital, it was put on record that Fischer was the only one who visited him.
fishecr in 1959 was a grandmaster rating 2701 which nowadays is like 2735 to 2750 plus 2750 would make him joint 9th @@ThatRandomDude.mp4 plus they are equal
one of my favorite series from you! the deep dive into historical figures in chess is always so cool to see!
keep making historical videos, they involve a lot of brilliance combined with fascinating stories
Tal's own book on his 1960 world championship match against Botvinnik is one of the few best & most instructive chess books ever written.
His autobiography, and his book Attack with Mikhail Tal are great too. Also, Joe Gallagher wrote a book on his neglected later games. Any other good Tal books out there?
I can't believe how great and unique your content is. Please, bring us more of this type of videos where you showcase historical matches, it is so inspiring. You are very good at keeping the attention throughout the video even if it's chess (a game that average people would deem boring). I know that you've been asking for more comments because you only see memes down here, however, you don't need to ask for it, just make more videos like this one.
I can’t wait to research more about Tal. Thank you for covering him and these games. He comes across as an absolute legend.
I’d literally spend my life savings to see Morphy play Tal.
Tal and Judit are my two favorite chess players. More of either would be nice if possible, please!
A video on Judit would be awesome, she was also a great attacking player
I actually love these vids you get the chess story along with Gothams exited and enthusiastic personality which makes this honestly such an enjoyable watch.
Love these videos! More please!! A lot of people out out chess history videos, but none of them are a entertaining as yours. Love the history and the learning!!
Thank you so much Levy. Im a long time fan and I've been looking forward to a video about historical chess games for a while now and it's finally here.
Already know its going to be a banger and I really hope you put out more videos like these again.
Wikipedia: Tal held the record for the longest unbeaten streak in competitive chess history with 95 games
Kramnik: Interesting...
Underrated comment
More Tal videos please!!!
He's the epitome of what's wrong with trying to play like an engine - maybe stockfish says something is unsound, but it would take a stockfish level player to find the refutation. It's not a blunder if a super GM can't refute it.
I'm not a fan of history in general but Levy, your chess history videos are really something else. Thanks for bringing them back! hope the vid does well :D
Levy, this is one of your best videos. Nice to see you starting the year at the Top of your game, mate.
This kind of stuff is awesome Levy. My favorite videos of yours are chess history; the old WCC recaps like Kasparov vs Kramnik, or the gold coin game, or Magnus’ 5 championships, Karpov vs Korchnoi, stuff like that. I very much hope you make more of this.
You can’t spell Brutal without Tal
It's actually a little known fact that it used to be spelled "brutle" until Tal came along. It was re-spelled in his honor.
This was a great and entertaining video Levy! Thanks for the showcase of historic chess games like Tal, there were several moments where the reveal of the next move left me laughing because it felt totally ridiculous. Great presentation and comedic timing to accentuate the boldness of Tal.
More vids like this please! They’re what got me into your channel (and subsequently into chess) in the beginning
As an amateur chess player who has started to get into more of the history of chess, i love this new content. Keep it up! Maybe you could cover the 1959 candidates? There are a lot of great players there, fischer, Keres, and tal.
That first game is INSANE. I just stared at my phone in disbelief. Thank you Levy for covering this, it was a super interesting video!
I saw that a lot of comments are talking about Tal's great accomplishments. But in my view, Tal's greatest achievement was winning the 1988 World Blitz Championships - just 4 years before his death. Karpov and Kasparov were the top seeds - just about every one of World's best players took part in this event!
Love Tal, love the historical deep dives :) I'd definitely watch more of these!
I remember the first game of Tal's that I played over. In 1969, I bought my first book, one of the games in the book was Fischer-Tal. It was a French defense and a draw. It changed me from liking chess to loving it.
This was one of my favourite videos of yours I ever seen. I can truly see your passion for the game and the beauty of these moves the whole way trough. I had no idea who Tal was before this, and now I'd spend considerable ammounts to see him play modern chess, and modern chess players.
100% agreed! These old soviet players are legit terrifying and levy knows how to show it 😄
I love these historical chess videos. We see so much about the present-day legends, it's so cool to see the past legends. Plus, we can see how the game of chess has evolved to the point where it is today
historical chess videos are my favorite types, i hope it does well. Im really glad to finally see you doing a deep dive into Tal
The most incredible game is Morozevich v. MVL where the rook stays on h7 for most of the game. Worth a vid Levy!!
According to a friend of mine, Tal also had arthritis. He picked up the pieces using the middle knuckles, not the finger tips. This was when he was playing against a lot of people in a park in Oslo, Norway. My friend lost his game against Tal. but he still called it the most memorable game of his life.
I absolutely love those historical games. Something about them just breathes a totally different school and manner of thought, both on the board and outside of it. I love it so much
Loved this historical deep dive Levy. This is the content that first hooked me to your channel. They are informative and entertaining. Please make more videos like this in the future
I love the historical videos, also love when you give a little background on how an opening was named. I think a teaching/history video on various openings could be a cool idea
Absolutely love the content! Mikhail Tal was a true creative genius on the chessboard - his bold attacks were legendary. He Is My Inspiration to chess.
Would love to see more videos exploring his games and tactics.
Also, Levy never fails to make good videos :)
Levy's story telling is another thing when it comes to appreciating great ppl and creating a memorial for them fr. Great content man
I love watching you analyze historical games, fingers crossed there will be more of these even if they're not the most popular videos on you channel
Hi Levy, I love your videos where you analyze and explain high level games! They are very entertaining! Keep it up!!
Really really enjoy these types of videos Levy, would love to see these and other more educational content make a comeback on this channel. Even if it doesn't do the same numbers, just for the sake of putting out some quality videos
Thanks levy for a chess history video after quite a long time. This series and machine games are my favorites. Please make this kind of videos more frequently.
Learned so much about chess from your content. The way you sharing all of your knowledge with passion and right amount of jokes is special. Rewatched the chess history videos couple times so more of this content would be highly appreciated. Keep up the great work! 👏👏👏
Tal was the player who inspired me for playing chess. I Love his Attacking Style Games so Much, That I am Developing my playing style like him. He was an absolute Gangsta, He is my favourite player
We want more of these kinds of videos
Definitely more of this please, Levy. I really enjoy the story around the chess games just as much as the games themselves.
I miss your historical chess dives from the early days so much! I'm glad you're back at it
It feels like Tal REALLY had fun. Like careless child playing tag with friends. Such a pleasure to watch. Thank you, Levy. More content like this please 🙏🏼
Thanks for this video Levy! These are some of my favourite types of videos on your channel! I've watched the ones on Kasparov at least 3 times each. These are my third favourite types of videos, only behind the very top level AI chess videos, and the how to lose at chess videos. Much appreciated for making this video about Tal!
Absolutely more content like this please! I find your historical chess videos some of the best content you do
I love the focus on different players, especially if it's not perfect, keep it going Levy
I'm glad you brought back chess history videos. They're some of my favorite content on your channel. I hope you keep doing them
I would love to see some of Tals game in the Tal variation of the Advanced Caro-Kann. I wanna know why they named it after him.
love this old chess games. my favourite one was about the sultan khan. Amazing story, still to this day my favorite player thanks to your video. Thank you Gotham!
Love the historical game analyses! Would love to see a video on Nezhmetdinov’s greatest games 🙌🏾 fascinating player
Mikhail Tal is very different than Kasparov and magnus. His goal was to create magic on the chessboard doesn’t matter if he wins or lose. He actually defeated Kasparov during he was supposed to be on the bed and after a month he died, he was chess legend..
This was an incredible video. Mikhail's understanding of the game is insane. Definitely someone I wouldn't want to be up against, lol. The way you narrate the games makes them come to life.
Love the historic vids Levi! Keep it up! These make me think about the game completely differently in a way that is awesome to share with club members to further connect them with the game.
hey levy, just wanted to tell you that i loves these historical video, i would be very pleased to see other like thisc coming,
as always, great video
please keep up this content! It is so inspiring to active chess fans giving them history to learn from instead of just openings or just tactics, learning in diverse ways is a pro-active way of progressing in your chess career, yeah helps definitely.
I love this video, I was just talking about Tal a couple days ago. Thank you for this video Levy
Love this!
The history of chess and great players, the challenges that Tal and others met and Gotham brings it alive, reminding us of the past and great players through the years!
I adore content like this, it's what made me subscribe in the first place. I love learning about the history of chess, notable players and their play styles because you tell their story in captivating way. Keep it up Levy!
Jokes aside, positions like these really show how great of a player Tal really was since there never existed any single combination that took advantage of his 35 different hanging pieces.
That's some next level shit bro...
Oh, there were ways to counter many of his sacrifices, but they were so complex and hard to find that it's almost impossible to do it in practice. Botvínnik said something like, "Always accept Tal's sacrifices, calculate mine, then decide whst to do and resign if you see Petrosian doing one"
@@LasCosasDeBruninso basically, Russian propaganda? Tal’s sacrifices were some of the best in history.
@@tobyonatabe2601 oh no, Botvinnik had Tal in high regard, but what he meant is that Tal's sacrifices were based on instinct. If you accepted them you would either manage to hold the match and keep your extra material, or get crushed anyways, that was the most common outcome. What I meant is that most of them were, at some point during the consequent attack, refutable, otherworldly hard to refute, yes, but not impossible. Check some Nezhmetdinov games, they were very similar. Crazy ideas, beautiful ideas, but not *bulletproof* ones, at least theoretically.
@@LasCosasDeBrunin oh, now I understand. Thank you for your explanation!
I love the deep dives!! Happy to see these coming back I missed this informational format
The historical content particularly from Agadmator has always been my favourite!! Love Tal. Great video.
"There are two types of sacrifices: correct ones and mine"
If you made more videos on historical chess, I would click on them in record time. No one covers games like you do.
