I’m proud to report that I did pause and found Tal’s losing move! 😂

[@deniszubovic7516]

Me too and I am basically 1200 player. Perhaps that's why.

[@MatoJelic]

@@deniszubovic7516 Well done

[@mangeshdani6411]

Grabbing the pawn and allowing attacking grand master Tal to commence checks and getting King to advantageous position. Great idea by Geller. Out of the world. 🙏

[@chrishauser5505]

Wow! It's not often that you see Tal wind up with a lump of coal in his stocking. Merry Christmas, Mato!

[@tahaissa3673]

This is the one of rare games that Tal lose .. But Geller was magician .. Thank you Mato Sir for your marvelous and awesome game and analysis

[@Hallands.]

Mikhail Tal tied Efim Geller 6 to 6, with 23 draws.

[@Mariosergio61]

Another year ending, and another beautfull game. Merry Christmas, Mato.

Well I dnot know how but I found the move Tal played. Merry Christmas in health dear Mato.

[@jeffjones6951]

@ 5:10 g5 was the best move, but it was not a "winning move"

[@st3lnik]

@@jeffjones6951 nevertheless brilliant & beautiful.

Merry Christmas to you too

[@nonyobusiness1201]

Did Geller allow checks to get his King in position for a mate???? WOW

[@smithmaximum4032]

Tal is always fresh. Always.

[@bipee3937]

You should start a series on when the king goes to war

[@roko567]

The losing move was the first move that popped in my mind. No wonder I suck at chess

[@robertpesevski1641]

On 03:57 why not the white king h 4??!! Mato, why not? Thanks a lot!

[@vincentmanengamambo1567]

Aaa my dear Tal was Defeated well oky Sir Mato please present any game available between Giller and Lazlo Szabo Kkkkk I predict more fireworks there

[@davidezanin7358]

Unbelievable

[@LeftLib]

I sometimes miscalculate and things don't go according to plan as well. Not just me then.

[@mohammedalhur3695]

Wow

[@phoenixalpha5789]

Cheikh Mato, I found the move g5, but I am not Tal :)

[@deniszubovic7516]

Audacity to allow Tal to chase his king. Geller was gangster.

[@xavierjmj]

mano e mano 🥊

[@gerardfeisvuc1241]

What the hell? ...wait a minute, Geller has "taled" to Tal hahaha....

[@hnalike7778]

Fortune favors the brave.

[@sesham1883]

5.30 attack pawn by queen check..is winning move

[@andyferari6478]

4:36 there was no win in this situation and only move for tal to draw was H6

[@pericajoviva]

Thank you, Mato, for another great match! I would like to know how much time spent each of players for this match, if someone know that! Merry Christmas!

[@amosdraak3536]

Wow! Mikhail Tal’s King Hunt Ended “Tragically” by “Chess with Suren” mentions Geller’s notes and says they had seconds towards the end of the game, so it was like hyper bullet basically

[@pericajoviva]

@@amosdraak3536 Thank you for information! People thinking when looking matches of Geller it's firework, like some speed game, but truly he spend a lot of time for every move, calculated sometime 15 moves forward in maybe 5 variation of finishing! Geller was human computer!

[@amosdraak3536]

You’re welcome! Yes, I love his games! I love the Soviets in general, but he was a good and complex player. He was very strong and definitely like a computer.

[@forevercu]

Geller has equal score against Tal +6−6=23

[@MrSupernova111]

lol

[@vilasdakhole9296]

[@janneliimatainen6186]
