WOW! What a player Tal was! Daring sacrifices and always looking for something creative. He was more of an entertainer at the board rather than your routine chess player.

RIP master...

[Benjasem]

my favo player,RIP



[MetalScull]

In about 2:50 you called Tal is 25 years russian, I am right? If yes, then I will clear your mistake: Tal was latvian, not russian.

[mdnoorfairouz]

@MetalScull and may i also add,tal was 22 in 1959..

[oldoddjobs]

@mdnoorfairouz listen again, he was quoting fischer

[codename08jay]

[VitalSigns1]

Tal is God

[HardieUK]

quality game, ridiculous

[BenNCM]

when you say analytical system, you really mean Rybka of course!

[GMAhmedAdly]

I think he is saying, Assistent! not system. Might be wrong.

[Ep1cure]

5:23 Why not .....Qxd1+  ?

[andthatsforthewin]

@Ep1cure Kxd1 wins material

[rockaasik]

Tal wasn't even Russian, he was an Estonian-Latvian. :)

[bajen3]

But when they play , Estonia was the same ass Russia :)

[LaneCoutell]

What a game. King I presume you're a top player but you're certainly a great commentator. You have a really great turn of phrase and a brilliant tone. I'm new to this but there's nothing I like I like more now than to crack open a bottle of wine and to let you take me through some really great games.

Yours, former U11 SE London number one and London number 2!

[dobtoronto]

hey Mr. Coutell

Check out all KC's amazing blitz games! Including the victory against fmkronos, of course ...

[Minkki82]

you have got to love TAL!!!

[treasurehunter629]

at the 4:00 mark what about Qg5?

[MavPlaysChess]

If Qg5??, then just ...Qxg5. Do you see why this is possible?

[Doublemac88]

All the way my friend

[gologram]

That's just amazing.

I have 1950 Elo rating and have seen every kingcrusher's video but I 've never seen a game of such complexity.I wander what Fischer felt playing against that Russian.What was a score of Fischer-Tal games?

[RebelRay]

I believe it was 1-4 or something like that. When someone asked Tal about his flattering score against Fischer, Tal humbly said, "Tal was Tal, but Fischer wasn't Fischer yet."

[TheSSBMDude]

haha, in an interview before the candidates tournament Smyslov said that Tal's playing style consists of unsound tricks and that he would show him "real" chess in their matches.

Yet here we see Smyslov falling for those tricks and resigning on move 26. :D

[jbahadur10]

Wow, this is indeed a brilliancy.

Incredibly deep is right... I have been analyzing the game with Fritz and I have never seen it jump back and forth so quickly in terms of its evaluation of the position.

This is a great game to illustrate the shortcomings of engines.

[sullathegenius]

Tal is a badass!!!!

[SvenTwelve]

Nobody seems to notice the black queen sac on b2 which leads to a stunning victory for white.

[samirhossain]

This game should be in a magic show for the bishop sacrifice

[junkyjuice21]

Marvelous!

[Newbeeses]

This is too much

[gologram]

That's so entertaining.Let's see more Tal games.I live in Riga and have met people who received Tal's tuition and played against him in the Palace of Pioneers.

[gologram]

Tell me,King,is that true that Tal had positive score against Fischer?How do you think if Fischer challenged Tal in world championship match,who'd have had an upper hand?What about Geller-Fischer would-be match?

[yahayamh]

Grate game .

[object16]

I think youtube may let you go to 10:59 before you get cut off. i haven't tried it myself but I noticed another one of your videos went to 10:30

[brrrdman85]

That was a wonderful game. Thanks a lot.
