[@memefy02]

That was a hard one! I believe this to be the solution: 1. Qe2! Qe7 (Anything else also leads to checkmate in one with the next move) 2. Qh5+ Kf8 (only legal move) 3. Qg6! Qxd6 (anything else is checkmate in one, the Queen is pinned) 4. Qg8+ Ke7 (only legal move) 5. Rg7#

[@lajos-berenyi]

Nice solution! After 1. Qe2 the other move that black can try (because obviously Qe7 is losing even if it wasn’t checkmate) is escaping with Ke8, but 2. Qh5+ leads checkmate: if Qf7 then 3. Rg8+, Kd7 4. Qxf7#. Or if Kd8 then 3. Rg8+, Kd7 4. Qf7#, or if Kd7 then 3. Qf7+, Kc8 4. Rg8#.

[@emmettnelson7260]

You missed one line where 1. Qe2, Ke8 2. Qh5+, Kd8 or Kd7. If Kd7, 3. Qf7+ 4. Rg8# If Kd8 3. Rg8+ 4. Qf7#. Other than that I think this is right.

[@LeventK]

Actually that was the first time i didn't find the winning move for white that is an extremely deep move! Nice öne.

[@SurenAghabekyan]

Hard one, because you were looking for a Queen sacrifice?))

[@SurenAghabekyan]

@Levent Acemi maybe you were also looking for a Queen sacrifice? 😊

[@vamsibharadwajece7543]

Who fears most when they play with tal? Ans:His queen 😂 Edit 1: thanks for the likes guys Stay safe and healthy ❤️

[@SurenAghabekyan]

😂😂

[@hanafuda]

It’s like when a kid watches you playing a game where you can take the opponent’s Queen but you can also checkmate your opponent so you play the checkmating move and the kid asks, “Why didn’t you take the Queen?” “Because I could checkmate him.” “But you could have taken his Queen.” “Isn’t checkmate better?” “Yeah, but you could have taken his Queen.”

[@gzaf187]

That bishop to g6 move is insane. I wouldn't see that if I spent hours looking at that position.

[@andrewries9529]

At 6:26, Bg7 is still completely losing for black. Instead of f6, allowing black to play Rf3, white can instead play Rxg7+, Kxg7, f6+, Kh8, Qh6. In all of blacks lines to defend g7, he will be down the exchange and have a much worse, passive position.

[@mgmodeste1]

Mikhail Tal really could do add maths and get all correct he is the real magician.. thanks for everything

[@SurenAghabekyan]

thank you too Marlon ;)

[@stevenpotterlgrrh]

[@SurenAghabekyan]

[@jasoncruz7118]

Bg7 is a magic on the board, what a move guys thanks suren,

[@scarlatescuovidiu9857]

1. Qc7+, Qxc7 (or else the black Queen is lost) 2. Bxc7, Nd7 or anywhere else 3. b6 and black will have to give the knight or the rook to stop the promotion, because the pawn will be suported by the bishop and, if necessary, by the g1 rook

[@martinguerre8220]

Interesting. I'm looking at Qe2. Threat: Qh5#.

[@memefy02]

1. Qxc7?! Qxc7 2. Bxc7 Nd5! 3. b6 Nxc7 4. bxc7 Rc8 Black can stop the pawn, it should be a draw since the black king is very close and can capture the pawn on c7, leading to a drawn endgame as white can get black's pawn on a5 in exchange. I think 1. Qe2 is indeed the way to go here. When black defends with the queen, it would have to go into a bishop pin.

[@chillyseba5476]

Ooo, romania? :)

[@bh8642]

But what if 2...Nd5 3. b6 NxB 4. PxN Rb8 and Black blocks White's pawn.

[@bh8642]

Excuse me, it shouldbe 4...Rc8.

[@roryvonbrutt7302]

re-watch.... BRUTAL calculations‼️®️™️

[@SurenAghabekyan]

agree...

[@martinguerre8220]

What about 1. Qe2. Immediate threat of checkmate Qh5. Only delaying tactic for black Ke8 (apart from throwing away his queen). But white can bring the rook into play on the seventh rank too.

[@martinguerre8220]

... Rg8 also delaying action. But it looks like mate in four.

[@scarlatescuovidiu9857]

Yes, I think 1. Qe2 is the way to go. If Ke8, then 2. Qh5+ If Qf7, then 3. Rg8+, Kd7, 4. Qxc7# If Kd7, then 3. Qf7+, Kd8, 4. Rg8#

[@SurenAghabekyan]

yes, Qe2 is the killer move...

Hello sir, I have a question, can you rank the following gentlemen in order of their skills in chess (purely based on how good they are not their achievements nor what they contributed to the chess world) Carlsen, Fisher, Capablanca, Kasparov, Karpov, Paul Murphy, Vishy Anand, Caruana, Nakamura, MVL, Ding Liren, Ian Nepo, Spassky, Kramnik, Alekhine, Ivancuck, Petrosian, Botvinnik and last but not least Mikhail Tal.
