[@dimains6011]

"Yes this is the same Bent Larsen that lost 0-6 to Bobby Fischer." That's cold, Antonio, that's cold. 😂

[@vlaekershner7305]

I played Larsen in a simultaneous exhibition in Chicago in 1968, before he got crushed by Bobby. I simplified as much as possible and took him to an even endgame before I had to lose a knight to stop a backrank mate. He looked at me like he was surprised I fell into such a stupid situation.

[@dimains6011]

@@vlaekershner7305 lol, some masters forget what it's like to lose. I guess he had a lesson shortly after your match. I bet that was a cool experience for you nonetheless!

[@jackm4457]

Larsen reached the semi-finals of the Candidate Matches, in 3 consecutive cycles -- 1965/1968/1971. Always original, his lack of conformity doomed his quest to be #1, but he was #1 in the West, while Fischer was off brooding for much of the 1960s.

[@Scientist93]

Larsen gets done so dirty based on that result alone, it's unbelievable. He's one of the most creative and overall original players in chess history, as well as one of the greatest fighters to ever play the game. Not only did he legitimately develop many unorthodox openings, but he also improved the reputations of many opening lines others had considered to be way too passive and devoid of counterplay (for example, the Maroczy Bind of the Accelerated Dragon for Black, and also the Franco-Benoni for Black!). A true chess hero, especially in the vast pre-computer era. Did I mention he was the greatest polyglot among grandmasters?

[@DevangChavan]

Where did he say that ? 😂

[@vatsalrohilla5878]

Keep the Tal games coming!!

[@Galahand87]

Tal plays such daring chess even in the highest stakes matches, it's a privilege to watch. I doubt there is anyone else with his style and similar success levels.

[@tiagoviegas6743]

It is not possible to play like this and have that kind of success anymore since players are much better defenders nowadays in a classical setting. The closest thing we have are Dubov and Mamedyarov but nonr of them can really contend for the word championship

[@DarkSideChess]

@j re In faster time controls you can't really calculate as much. That's when positional understanding helps a lot.

[@playhousefilms368]

Tal is all tactics 100% he just flows from one tactic to the next to a mate threat if you make one mistake your dead.

[@mohamedamine-fo6lm]

What a game, it has really improved my friday. The madness created by Tal on the board is unbelievable and it reminds me of no one other than his rival Rashid nezhmetdinov. I really miss his games and i would like to see more of his games.

[@tomosborne4702]

Buy his book.

[@aarons3014]

Famous Tal quote, not sure if real: "After analysis, I almost always play the sacrifice I wanted to play at the beginning. The only opponents I won't do this against are Petrosian, Korchnoi, and Fisher. Petrosian will decline the sacrifice so it is impossible for him to lose. Korchnoi will use up all his time but calculate every variation to mate. And Fisher will win."

[@IRON--MAN]

Fischer was truly the best player to ever lived! Even today's era's modern players living in hightech computer world r stuggling to become as powerful and accurate as the fischer

More Tal games!? We're being spoiled, lately. Edit: I realised I should have asked what dark sorcery is this?

[@northshores7319]

A good thing to go over would be Spassky's Candidates matches in the 1960's. He was able to get to the top and come aback again in the next cycle. Karajakin and Caruana were unable to do that after they lost to Magnus. I think the Spassky of the 60's would be a hard man to beat today. His ability to adapt to opponents and to set them hard choices was unparrelled.

[@wandering_soul11]

Great point. Wonderful examples of his ability to adjust to different styles can be seen in his wins over Geller and Korchnoi in the candidates matches. As I stated earlier, Spassky from 1966-1969 was something else. Beautiful chess and very energetic. Love his games from these two cycles and let's face it, beating Iron Tigran was no joke and he managed that in '69.

[@reid1710]

Antonio's videos featuring Tal really make my days complete.

[@chrisoleary9876]

"This is the good stuff"...anything with Tal is "The good stuff!"

[@drzlecuti]

Tal's games are so much fun to review and so impressive to consider. He combined deep strategic and tactical thinking that is the hallmark of the greatest players in history. Thanks for featuring these games!

[@rishiikaran672]

Amazing work agadmator to bring out the immortal tal games to us

[@TheJohnsonJohnny]

I think, that "old" players, has something like a style. Nowadays players are like hurry hurry up to a well known position, some exchanges, and then we will start think something.. But like this gem... like Tal... there is purpose, and deep meaning of almost every placed piece. I saw on your channel even others older players, but how played Tal... is it like alchymist, with his poetry.

[@billmy2251]

What is so incredible about tal is that we all know that even playing like this against a club player is very hard. And we would call anyone a genius if he plays like this. What we all miss is how extremely hard it is to play like this against top players. We are talking here about the candidates. Sacking pieces like this is simply unreal. This what makes tal an extreme genius. He played like this vs the best players of his time. And successfully this is near impossible

[@marcotjepkema7154]

Your pronounciation of Scheveningen was spot on! It almost sounded perfectly dutch Greetings from the Netherlands

[@Lens98052]

So many thematic attacking ideas in one game is incredible. Nd5, g6, Qf7 to name a few. The Bc5 deflection was worthy of a high level puzzle.

[@imashu5634]

Even it's time to sleep....the day never ends happy without video of Antonio

[@DrPitchnPutt]

Thank you for naming the variations in the opening, it makes researching them easier

[@gustavobourguignon4995]

[@elkite8819]

Thanks for covering up tal's game.. Keep it up as long as possible

[@quickNir]

I think at the end it's worth mentioning black's strongest defense because unless I'm missing something, it's not nearly *as* bad as the video's end made it seem. After ...Qxd5#, a queen trade is forced, and the bishop recapturing on d5 also allows it to block checkmate after white captures the black rook on f8. So black is down an exchange and two pawns; a hopeless endgame but it doesn't end with an immediate mate or down a whole rook.

[@netheshramroop3281]

Agree. I only saw this after I commented. But think we both saw the same thing...it can be played to a draw

[@quickNir]

@@netheshramroop3281 wait, you had me until "draw" :-). An exchange and two pawns is still definitely winning.
