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.

[@Lewis08]

My girlfriend just broke up with me but these videos are making me happier. Thank you :)

[@masterryu6356]

Like in chess, sacrifices can lead to new beginnings lol

[@SSmitar]

Well, for what's it worth, you will find out that single life is much better. Happy independence, day by the way. :P

[@Lewis08]

Smit Ramteke haha cheers bro ;)

[@aykanatakan2562]

my girlfriend broke up with me too. life goes on, no need to be sad, work harder for everything

[@c-w-6004]

You can go impress another woman with your vast knowledge of the 1959 candidates tournament

[@kostadinnestorov4924]

"both bishops have bright future" 😂😂😂🤙

[@sumathianchan4488]

Both bishops gonna die soon Loll

[@brettjones327]

Agadmator/Antonio, I stumbled upon your videos a few months ago. I still don't know what in their algorithm lead KZbin to recommend one of your videos to me, but it was on point, and I've watched nearly every video you've posted over the last 3 months. You've inspired me to learn about chess. Last night I visited my local chess club for the first time and got destroyed by a Candidate Master. Afterwards, he gave me some positive feedback and a reading list for further study. It was super fun, and I look forward to going back and getting better. You are really starting to hone your format, and notifications that a new video is up are a bright part of my day. Keep up the good work. I am proof that your videos are getting others interested in the game, so I wanted to share that with you.

[@edenmoyal8323]

Could you share that reading list please? I'm also looking to learn

[@brettjones327]

Eden Moyal Here is his recommended reading list: 'Chess Fundamentals' by Jose Capablanca, 'My 60 Memorable Games' by Bobby Fischer, 'Chess Strategy' by Edward Lasker, 'How to Reassess Your Chess' by Jeremy Silman, '1001 Sacrifices and Combinations' and '1001 Checkmates' by Fred Reinfeld, 'Basic Chess Endings' by Reuben Fine. He did recommend starting with Capablanca, but I am not sure if the rest were meant to be read in the order he gave or not.

[@edenmoyal8323]

+Brett Jones thank you!

[@agadmator]

Excellent list!

[@AiQueNQQB]

After 3 years, how it going on

[@RolfyOlbap]

6:08 Bishops with futures so bright that the Queens had to wear sunglasses.

[@emanueledimo713]

hahahhahahaha

[@dylandcunha9251]

That wink at 0:09 though :P

[@bobmarheine5383]

I finally stumbled into the description by accidentally clicking on the little triangle to the right of the title (on my iPhone) Judging by some of the questions in the comments, I wasn't the only one who hadn't seen them before. Hope this helps someone. Seeing ALL the parts of these GREAT Videos makes them even better.

[@Shockprowl]

Really enjoying this series, Agadmator. I like the fact you're covering every game, it makes me feel like it really is 1960!

[@wouldhave4998]

I am so glad you showed a drawn game. One might think a draw is boring, but it really isn't. I enjoy those games as much as any other.

[@BaronRodney]

Aye, it doesn't really matter who wins or if there even is a winner at the end of it all. Their participation alone leaves a mark in history for all to revel and enjoy.

[@stefanvitale4850]

Just wanted to say, your videos are awesome and I appreciate chess a lot more because of these matches you have shown.

[@richardfeynman5560]

Agatmator analysis makes even drawn games thrilling and sensational!

[@dustinbachstein]

Amaing series! Tal is my favourite chesslaer of all time and I have the book myself. It can be recommended to everyone, even those who don't like his style much (is this ossible?!), his writing style is just amazing!

[@singingintherain4750]

You spoke so much about Tal and I like Tal so much that I have the feeling that I know Tal.

[@direwolf285]

Your videos make my day. Thanks brother

[@9181shreyasbhatt]

'This is amazing!!! and its is even more amazing to those who have read "Tal-Botvinnik, 1960 by Mikhail Tal" you do capture the essence.

[@Luke-sq2kh]

Great video again mate👍

[@richarddeese1991]

Thanks! I'm sometimes second-guessing these games, & here I just decided I'd go ahead & comment on one move, since it is the last move of the game before the draw. For move 44, I would've been sorely tempted to play 44 ...B-h2. Black's dark-square Bishop isn't guarding anything, & if Botvinnik enjoys positional play, he might like thinking about that one. Thanks again. Rikki Tikki.

[@chalavadisaisrujankumar6703]

6:22 The bishops seem to have much bright future than me !!! Loll!!

[@AFMathandEngineering]

Keep up the great videos! :D

[@nikhilchehal5152]

How do you show arrows in the game I am unable to show please tell agamdator

[@tvirya4525]

Thank you. Agadmotor.

[@yasserboudaoud6695]

can you make a video about the ware opening i saw opperwezen use it a lot in his bullet games #suggestion

[@Boleslav4]

Well I dunno if anybody ever mentioned this, but Capablanca had no knowledge of the opening theory for a decent portion of his life, so naturally he would not go for such complex opening. :)

[@devonmacdonald4439]

great video hope Tal wins the next one

[@ekarin7778]

What was the opening called for black.

[@backlogguru3710]

Thanks a lot u save my time ...

[@KantoCacho]

Hey Agadmator, will you ever start a series going over the basics of chess?

[@TheBarber5550]

Ruben that's not what his channel is for.

[@ravenr4898]

I suggest a game played between karpov,anand and kramnik vs nepo, dubov and kranijk

[@chaosbalanced]

Have I mentioned How appreciative I am that you do this Work!!! 🤝🤝🤝🤝🏆🏆🏆🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾-God Bless you

[@forzacavaliere]

Can you please do more games by world champion Lasker? You only have one by him, and he lost in it!

[@AlanIanke]

Benoni means 'Son of Sorrow' Fischer x Spassky 3rd game, 1972

[@IvanVallebona]

its 2 am in argentina. I have a final tomorrow, but i have to watch this video first!!!!!

[@ch-qd2wb]

#suggestion Igor Nataf - John Nuun 1999 French Team championship

[@MolchumanGaming]

Man, you are legend

[@brendanward2991]

You sounded almost apologetic for covering this game, but I don't know why. I found it an interesting game.

[@dhanarputra555]

Tal's quote is proven to be valid. Just watching those Alpha Zero game. Tal was ahead of its time afterall.

[@Joshman345]

A much enjoyed commentary

[@omariqbal7833]

I am waiting for game 3 now.

[@chesslife2866]

its now in my country 23:14 omg i wanna sleep but first i watch this video

[@edenmoyal8323]

Hello agadmator! Your videos have inspired me to learn chess and I was wondering if you or anyone in this comments section could give me tips on where to start and where to go from there. I'm 18 years old if that matters. Thanks!

[@MrCWilliams1982]

What makes the dark square Bishop so powerful? I don’t understand why the white bishop isn’t just as powerful

[@rockbolig1117]

Two was a pure genius with imagination better than Fischer or for that matter any player who played chess. Such geniuses are rare For tal what mattered more was the fun he got from chess than just wining. A breathtaking player who made chess sexy.

[@whatman3324]

0:09 did you just wink at me ?!?!

[@Dcschore]

Can someone please explain me what "tal move" means in chess?

[@infinitysalinity7981]

An extremely complicated move, often involving an unexpected sacrifice, that makes your opponent fall into a Deep Think, lose time and blunder the game.

[@alexandruepuran]

I did enjoy it!

[@IbnEmadAlmouaibed]

I watched this video because in his book tal describes his move Qxe5 as not logical and explains why it is bad but he does not go into what he was thinking at the time and why he played it. Like if it was not logical then what were you thinking?

[@sujaykherdekar7541]

#suggestion I know you have announced your plans regarding what you are going to cover on your channel,but can you fit in the AVRO TOURNAMENT of 1938 ?

[@agadmator]

At some point, yes. I covered a few games from it.

[@Ares28Pictures]

4:10 So now e fou-- b four before e four?? XD

[@ulrikebeetmann9721]

just saw there are 21 games played, guess this is best of 41

[@xyratious3334]

Yeah! The second game!

[@elielekberov5405]

i wasnt expecting LoL 😂😂

[@Methossoldier]

This game is craaaazy

[@peace_dude7594]

Amazing but#suggestion agadmator could you show us game between Garry Kasparov vs Deep blue 1997 rematch New york (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5.0-0 Be7 6.Re1 b5 7.Bb3 d6 8.c3 0-0 9)

[@aashishavinash6813]

Please make a video about the best openings

[@netosartorao3732]

Agadmator, don't worry about the lenght of the video if it is about Tal!

[@Hallands.]

Nice and useful, thanks! But how did Capablanca enter the title? I don't get it.

[@infinitysalinity7981]

The quote

[@DanielPerez-dl2gs]

Would love to have seen Capablanca vs Tal.

[@armaanmalhotra9042]

🔥🔥

[@iamverynicesir]

After the hypothetical ending you offered where black rook takes on c 4, white plays rook to g4, why not move the bishop to block the white rook on f4? If the pawn takes, black has time to take the white bishop. If the rook takes, you capture back with your pawn and you are up the exchange to boot. The white king is blocked at the fourth rank if the white pawn takes the black bishop thanks to the black rook occupying that rank. You can then capture another pawn and the king can block the passed pawn in enough time for the rook to be able to help defend, while also pushing what would at that point be THREE passed pawns. I am running on 3 hours of sleep though so if I missed something in this could someone please let me know? Don't have an engine to test it out in myself

[@qkqk6954]

Can someone explain the white pawn move at 7:48

[@victorsalinas3891]

You mean when he does the en passant?

[@qkqk6954]

Victor Salinas hahah yeah just looked it up, is this move a normal rule? Wow I've been playing chess amateurely for a while but don't know this move. Lol I used to think it was some sort of glitch.

[@victorsalinas3891]

Yes it's as normal as castling, although we don't see it so often.

[@qkqk6954]

Victor Salinas lol I thought the en passant was a computer glitch

[@victorsalinas3891]

Lol

[@alanissac3036]

1:29 "we have e6"

[@jadezee6316]

i dont get the title. i hope you are not claiming that tal or even botvinnik...could ever hope to be the equal of Capablanca who besides being the greatest endgame player in chess history certainly ranks in the top 3 at LEAST of greatest players ever. tals sacrifices 90% of the time were totally unsound and against CAPA tal would have been embarrassed.

[@MrPooPooJohn]

I didn't like the knight lines that are drawn on chess. com. Why can't they make the lines for the knight be just like everyone else does. Look at chessbase, lichess, hiarcs, chess king etc etc.....chess. com is annoying.
