    Tal vs Botvinnik 1960
    Moscow
    No sooner did Mikhail Botvinnik regain his title, the chess world became entranced by charismatic young Latvian named Mikhail Tal. Tal won the 1958 interzonal tournament at Portoroz, then helped the Soviet Union to retain the Chess Olympiad; before going on to win the 1959 Candidates Tournament with 20 out of 28 points--a point and a half ahead of second place Paul Keres.
    Tal often sacrificed material in search for the initiative in chess. With such intuitive sacrifices, he created vast complications, and many masters found it impossible to solve all the problems he created over the board, though deeper post-game analysis found flaws in some of his conceptions. Although this playing style was scorned by ex-World Champion Vasily Smyslov as nothing more than "tricks", Tal convincingly beat every notable grandmaster with his trademark aggression.

    And resignation
    Not only returning the piece to the back rank, but also to the square from where it started the game
    (yes, i checked it, the knight that came to b1 is the one that started from there)

    :O I actually liked this more than game 6. That 'allowed the tactic by going out of his way to prevent it' bit was awesome... And watching Tal slowly convert that advantage into a win by playing super-solid moves was brilliant

    Now for a real challenge, did anyone know if the knight on b1 at the end was the original knight that started there or the other knight.

  • @dan35669
    @dan35669 Před 6 lety +1

    Regarding the question at 13:42. Why not Nf6+? Then black king moves. White can then play Ne8, blocking the Rook from stopping promotion. The Knight on d2 can easily stop promotion of the passed black pawn.

    • @charliegiles5627
      @charliegiles5627 Před 5 lety

      the king attacks the knight then so it has to move away then promotes.

    • @godsdisciple2904
      @godsdisciple2904 Před 4 lety

      _Because after nf6 check, King still reach the e7 square so that ne8 was useless_

  • @kargs5krun
    @kargs5krun Před 5 lety +1

    I'm just guessing but, methinks Fischer studied/learned a lot of/from Tal in aggressive/sacrificial chess strategy(ies). Would be very interesting to see a chart of how all of the modern day/major world champions fared against one another, W-L-D, career wise. I'd bet there were some P.I.T.A. matchups for many of them that would make for good stories.
