How could Tal not be your favorite player? Just ridiculously talented and entertaining.

Sure! Together with Fischer, my favorite player. Still, too bad Tal has a losing record against Korchnoi. If Tal would have played his world championship match against Korchnoi, it would have been Korchnoi, the new world champion. Don’t like it, but….

I like some of his games but his style is too risky to apply on the board.

Because Bobby Fischer

Tal's King movement is extraordinary.

Chessdawg is my favorite chess channel right now.

Keep them tal games coming 🎉

Thank you for an excellent presentation of this wonderful game. I much prefer bold exciting attacking (unorthodox?) Chess than the methodical boring march to perfection. So its no surprise the Wizard of Riga is one of my favorites.

Botvinnik was a loyal devotee of Capablanca, but Tal proved that pioneers have their place too. A masterpiece indeed.

Good job man, I love your videos. Short and sweet.... and very instructive. Cheers,

Thank's for presenting a game from the tournament I requested!

thanks so much, I've been waiting

What a game! Hats off to Tal! 💪

Tal the talented magician

What a crazy game! Thx for uploading!

super review thank you

Fisher didn’t like the idea of giving up the black square bishop I agree

Like Tal's games and your chess chenal.

really outstanding ang shocking😂

I wish chess could be changed again like this, but alas those days are gone

Time and again I am struck by the two ways of analyzing a game. (1) CONSEQUENCE/RESULT oriented. What do the moves (plans) do, and what would happen if this or another move is made? (2) DEVELOPMENT/GENESIS oriented. How does a player think of this or that move (plan)? You did a very good job of trying to get at both, but still focused more on the former -- understandable with a player like Tal, when the consequences are so intensely complicated and in need of explanation. Additionally, it's probably impossible to get inside their heads to understand how they came up with various plans, without talking to them right after the game. I personally wonder how Tal came up with 18. h4! Clearly it protects the bishop, allows the rook lift, and makes the passed pawn itself more powerful by advancing. So many other moves to be considered, but how do you find moves like this? It's amazing! Thanks for your thoughtful analysis. I am always absorbed by your videos, and learn so much. :)

I love your channel, but I've noticed a few times here lately that you rush through some moves, especially when your discussing alternate variations, and it's made it harder to follow at times. As an example here, around minute 5:35, you really blast through things--particularly with the Kd8 variation, and as an 1800 player, I had to replay it three times, freezing it a couple of times along the way, and I'm still rather confused and just don't care to spend more time trying to slowly figure it out. So, again, I think you haver one of the best chess channels, but it would be nice to go a bit slower at times. This whole video was only 10:28, and stretching it to 11:28 would have made it so much clearer. I don't know if others have noticed this; I haven't seen similar comments. Thanks again though for your channel and another nice game with two of the greats.

..close encounters..

but my move ba8 is the greatest chess move of all time, we analysed it with IM levy rozman, simple moves and idea but one of a kind themes

Throw the Dawg a Bone! Excellent and passionate analysis! As good as Tal was...World Champ even, Bobby Fischer was too much for him.

the point is that nobody was paul morphy besides paul morphy. I'm glad he's getting so much recognition these days however.

Morphy didn't have a "Botvinnik" to play. He was in an era by himself. Nothing to do but speculate how he would have done against other greats.
