Mikhail Tal Vs Bobby Fischer - Tal TROLLS Fischer - The Legendary Attack of the Bobby

Mikhail Tal Vs Bobby Fischer - Tal TROLLS Fischer on the 1st move - The Legendary Attack of the Bobby
After the greatest catastrophe in human history, World War II, two superpowers emerged on the scene: the United States and the Soviet Union. Their confrontation went down in history as the Cold War and reached its peak by 1962, when the world was one step away from nuclear war because of the Caribbean crisis. One element of the confrontation between the two nations was also the chessboard. In 1959 there was a candidates' tournament in which the spotlight was on two prodigies. Twenty-two-year-old Mikhail Tal of the USSR and sixteen-year-old Bobby Fischer of the United States, the world's youngest grandmaster. And now we will see how, in this oppressive atmosphere of confrontation between the two countries, Mikhail Tal decided to pull a stunt on the young Bobby Fischer right on the first move.
Greetings, dear chess fans and experts! This is FIDE Master Max Omariev with you. And in this difficult time nothing is better than to return to the lessons of the past. The Candidates Tournament of 1959 took place under the dictation of Soviet chess players and in the end they took the first four places. The winner of that tournament was Mikhail Tal. But Bobby Fischer didn't come there to train - he really wanted to win. Eyewitnesses said that during the tournament he lived with and for chess - nothing else existed for him. Sometimes at night he would wake up his second, Larson, for chess games analyses. And his only entertainment was reading Tarzan and listening to jazz on the radio. As we can see, Fischer loved good music, but his focus was precisely on winning the tournament. Still, the Soviets showed him that he was not yet ready for such a war.

I like the way Tal smiles

[@emilaliyevs]

I yeah, He had charisma

[@kerryfry1857]

He's got a cheekyness. It's amusing ❤

[@Alexander-wk8of]

That smile though... Takes me back in time to a time before I was born...Some kind of nostalgia that I cannot explain

[@lord.d1_]

Bobby Fischer: **e4** Mikhail Tal: Okay then. I'll do the Caro K- nope... THE SICILIAN!!!

[@henryseidel5469]

Indeed that was a funny moment when Tal started his first move with Black. From the 'Caro Kann' to 'Sicilian'.

[@kerryfry1857]

I'm so glad they had friendship. Both greats of the game ❤

[@Hanya1962]

[@eloy2133]

Hi, where does the footage of Bobby talking about this incident in the middle of a chess lecture comes from? I would love to see that video! I really enjoyed this one too.

[@KOl-xj4jt]

he learned from Tal

[@pumamaqui8571]

The true story behind was Fischer had said that Tal wouldn't dare to play the sicilian defence against him. And voilà... The rest Is history.

[@KeithDonovan-cd3eo]

True story was Fischer said the Soviets were afraid to play the sicilian against he didn't say Tal specifically plus Tal and Fischer were friends as was spassky and Fischer

[@user-ye5yr3xu8y]

This is a good video, but the background music… seriously 😂

[@user-gj6vn5rm3s]

Tal the best chess player in the history 😊

[@chijiokeokorafor6690]

He's not but he was an amazing player

[@rajanikotiyal4040]

​@@chijiokeokorafor6690 he is the best not by elo but by skills even today's gm cannot play like him.

[@chijiokeokorafor6690]

@@rajanikotiyal4040 I know he was very skilled, but Tal was at time known to be overly aggressive and sometimes tried to force the issue too much, resulting in more technical players being able to defeat him. Apart from that, even though he excelled in tactics and dynamics, there are players in history that could have beaten him in his style, e.g. Garry Kasparov, Bobby Fischer and others. Again, he was an amazing player, but not the best. At his best, he was probably very close to 2800, or maybe 2800+
