No, the bot just blundered. I've played against 2k rated bots where they sometimes hang a queen in the opening. It's weird.

[@VanessosIliop.05]

​@@NexenTrizno I played this bot many times. Every time he plays a sacrifice like move which is a blunder according to Stockfish because this is kinda how Tal played.

[@JjJj-kv7wu]

They code the bots to blunder once in a while, its random so if you are lucky hes gonna blunder mate in the beggining. Not a bug, just a result of lazy programming

[@pob-4810]

Dude anyone who knows the Greek gift would play that move. The bot blundered way harder than Hikaru showed “skill”

[@denominator208]

Yes, you played "Mikhail Tal", or a bot set to about his estimated strength - how exciting. What would be amazing was if the bot really (almost?) played like Tal; it would be programmed to play similar openings and would try to match his fiery style (based on all of his games).

[@sh16__]

I think hikaru is secretly levys soulmate. There is no reason to hide it anymore! Its not magnus!

Hikaru checkmated Tal in 16 moves Also hikaru: I am confused. Let me try Again 🤔🤔

[@briankarcher8338]

Honestly it is pretty complicated to create a bot with Tal's play style. Tal didn't sacrifice for the sake of sacrificing. Tal created chaos. Tal beat Kasparov in his prime while Tal was himself dying.

I think these bots just blunder sometimes. I (890 rapid) draw capablanca by repetition of checks with both my rooks on the 7th rank. Game analysis showed after I was +3.0ish and winning. From my second game on, I was absolutely destroyed, and couldn't get close to an advantage like I had in the 1st game.
