Mikhail Tal's King's Indian Destruction | 1960 World Championship vs Botvinnik

Today I analyze game 6 of the 1960 World Championship match between Mikhail Tal and Mikhail Botvinnik. This clash of styles couldn't be more stark. Tal is still widely regarded as the greatest intuitive attacker of all time. His opponent was the incredibly solid and fierce "Patriarch of the Soviet Chess School." Tal, seeking an unbalanced game, uses the King's Indian Defense. Tal sacrifices a knight early in the game and crazy complications arise. Can Botvinnik hold off his young opponent?

    Tal - Botvinnik 1960 by Tal himself is probably the most eintertaining WCC book/annotation I've read

    Fianchetto isn't pronounced that way i think

    That's just the American pronunciation. If you ask an Italian it's "fee-uhn-KET-toh."

    Lots of fumbling during the analysis.
