[@markbutler6788]

Tal's focus on the enemy King is scary.

[@ishanjoshi1350]

"but now he's not even sure which colour pieces he has " HAHAHAHA

[@cardogkitchen4106]

+Ishan Joshi "once he realized he was white, he played rook to d1" lol

[@Mac11821]

hahaha

[@hazard8617]

+Mac Mariano Second favorite Mato quote. Other one is from Kasparov Topalov it was "The Queen is not a horse, she is a lady" and "its not over until fat lady sings." I can watch these videos over and over and still be entertained. Never thought chess could be so exiting.

[@christinefamilia9320]

+Ishan Joshi Guys Mato is just SPeeeeeeacial!

[@Ophiuchus123456789]

+HaZaRd My favourite Mato quote is during an endgame the passed pawn is too far away from the king. Mato said something like 'Even if the King is wearing his nike trainers he will not reach the pawn in time'. The things he says are the best.

[@alkowsky]

Tal at his best ! There are three ways to play chess: the right way, the wrong way, & Tal's way.

[@ddmannion]

well said.

[@nazlone]

well said

[@dingchongwang1021]

+Al Kowsky tal dont have a right way??????

[@deonyz]

+Alex ZHU nope - his way is totally magical!

[@anonymousunknown4775]

tal's way=right way

[@kwstas1408]

tal has never lost a single match in his life.sometimes he just sacrificed the whole game

[@Ophiuchus123456789]

+αντρεας περικλιδης Hah, he's the Chuck Norris of the Chess world.

[@younguchiha6866]

very dangerous move! 'dont try at home'. :-)

[@Dude7469]

+young uchiha i wouldn't try that at home thou

[@BlizzardHydralisk]

+young uchiha I tried this at home and failed. MISERABLY. I blundered one piece and my whole attack fell apart.

[@eduardocostaeu]

I'm afraid to try it

[@younguchiha6866]

+BlizzardHydralisk me too. Lols

[@HollyMartins]

+Eduardo Costa yes ! Who can play like that, think like that and dare to play like that. Well............dare is not the problem

[@sheriff1283]

"But now, he is not even sure which color pieces hes has", ROFL. EPIC!!!

[@markkinnard796]

This game and video was one of the best ever. Good job and thanks.

[@Schindlabua]

How the hell do you even do that. This dude sacrifices ten pieces in three moves and somehow is still up in material.

[@vasildedov6797]

+Schindlabua Dude I bet it's the stress. Imagine someone threw this much at you. How do you figure out what he's up to?

[@TSgitaar]

That is the genius of Tal. Some people think that he just randomly sacrificed material for a dubious attack, but he actually knew that he would have at least a draw. If you read his biography that becomes clear.

[@cardogkitchen4106]

I didn't find the killah move. I was so confused that I thought he was playing checkers.

[@chrisbaldwin3148]

this is the type of game that chess players live for

[@pavankumar-io1vb]

Never stop uploading tal's games.what a move,only tal can play like that

[@arsenal_david]

Nice! I'm living in Uppsala at the moment

[@grampinator]

I am addicted to these games and the cool commentary.

[@andrewdanger2830]

Mato: you did it again! Great game, great analysis, great humor! Thank you.

[@mytube92369]

Much better! This game is so awesome. Tal is just amazingly deep and so much fun to watch! Thank you for taking the time to share your slice with us.

[@pierre45a]

Wonderful narrative for a crazy game.

[@sherratto3087]

Great game! Thanks for posting!

[@michatroschka]

one of the best games and best of your videos, thanks

[@stefanholbek2449]

It's just hard to believe ... what this man did with the pieces ... Wow!

[@chetanpandit983]

Life has its up and downs. Whenever I am feeling down and out, I go to youtube, and search for chess+mato jelic. We chess fans have always known Tal for the amazing games he played. And Mato Jelic explained this to me. Thank you, thank you, and thank you. PK4 (I belong to PK4 PQB4 era)

[@CharwakApte]

stunning moves... great vision and awesome casting Mato... I am Tal's fan as much as yours :) ...Thx!!

[@wesleypickles945]

Tal is crazy. All of his games go somewhat like this, where he like throws away pieces and does all this awesome stuff that you don't expect.

[@davidsmookler5757]

So cool! Worth studying again and again.

[@peppermints666]

Very entertaining game + commentary by mato, as always. enjoyed it

[@gauravsuthar1790]

The "Don't try this at home!" comment at 6:11....lmao!! Really enjoy your humorous commentary, and the collection of chess gems! Good work!! Keep rollin!

[@kumaitallawati9750]

Brilliant attack, thanks mato. your videos are pieces of art

[@oloi818]

This is an absolutely amazing game, that shows that TAL is only interested in the attack, and what opportunities that it brings thereafter..., amazing attacker, always attack!!!

[@stonefish76]

Suspenseful game, masterfully narrated, as usual.

[@AkshaySinghJamwal]

5:46 "In a slow motion" haha, cracked me up

[@tejasbawa]

Tal's every win was a peice of beauty.

[@2024sigma7]

Mr. Mato, This is an oscar nominated commentary , you have made. I laughed at least 10 mins and enjoyed my whole day even now....remembering the white colored G.Master.....when he realized that actually he is playing with white color...lolz....and not to try this game in his home.....lolz.....

[@nealtran6844]

Mato, I love your sense of humour at the end: "in slow motion" move for the rook.

[@alvarocampos1993]

I'd have never guess that move, great video!

[@jenilsoni3527]

TAL. the miracle maker, his games are the most fun to watch and ofcourse watching mato comment on it.

[@aleksandarkojic7653]

Mato kralju haha moram ovo probati i kod kuće... :-)

[@jordanspeed3046]

This kind of game I never seen before. Thanks i Like

[@StewartMiles1]

Sometimes i press the like button on your videos but then when I come back I see the like disappeared and I have to re-like the video again.

[@j.a.armour2427]

Mato - This is one of your most colorful commentaries on a chess game. Of course, Tal provided plenty of material for your animated comments . For example, when Tal played N-C6 @ 2:18 I laughed uproariously for about half a minute. It does look like a blunder & you said so. With moves like that, RXB on E3 @3:10 and R-E2 ch @ 5:05 it's not so far fetched to say as a consequence of such moves that Tal's opponent wasn't sure what color pieces he was playing. Although playing against Tal had to be a mind bending experience to say the least. Anyway, your commentary for this game was as entertaining and brilliant as the game itself. Thanks for making my evening tonight!

[@jorgepinonesjauch8023]

Un sueño haber tenido a todos estos campeones juntos, Morphy, Tal, capablanca, Lascker, Aleckinne, Fischer, Kasparov, Karpov, magnus Carlsen...que maravilloso sería

[@rakeshshimpi1198]

This is really unbelievable game.. miss you tal sir

[@kerimoahmat6627]

hi Mato thank you so much for all your videos , truly it helped me a lot as a chess player , i don't know if you're reading my comment or not but thank you from the bottom of my heart

[@leeavederi8426]

great video mato!!!

[@brianfansher2427]

I wouldn't have thought of that move in a million years.

[@maynardjoseph]

This game played by Tal, had more plot twists, than an Alfred Hitchcock movie.

[@pashapasovski5860]

He makes it look easy,just like a magician!

[@linearts7610]

When you said in a slow motion........ I was just....... ,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@andrewponton]

Amazing!

[@user-id8vi3te9x]

Thanks.

[@rabranch32]

Incredible. Tal makes moves that would never have occurred to me over the board...or anyone else.

[@POLISNecro]

Favorite video ever

[@bravogolfnovember]

nemogu da vjerujem sta gledam. hvala mato.

[@mdannatt]

Tal and I have very similar playing styles, sacrificing lots of material early on. Unfortunately, Tal has a plan and usually goes on to win while I watch my pieces disappear and never to recover. 😊

[@diogenes_of_sinope]

Tal must have been a killer in the previous life, fantastic game!

[@harry3003]

Wow, What a game, Epic!!

[@jorgepinonesjauch8023]

Este Tal, siempre trataba de llevar la iniciativa con ataques estilo Morphy, por algo era apodado el Mago de Riga..me gusta mucho su juego

[@prabha171]

Wonderful

[@fritzschwartz3295]

what that's how he looks!!! he's looks Kool !!! I love his voice!!!

[@Zartosxxx]

thx 4 the game !

[@dondefact3541]

Tal knew he would use the D file later in the game for an attack up the middle.

[@kelsonvieira8579]

Tal was psico! He enjoyed to see blood everywhere on the chessboard and in the crazy madness carnage the caos fits 100%...so when the enemy's still thinking wtf is going on he suddenly surprises his enemy and give him merciless death or suicid toughts.

[@mytube92369]

Mato, chess is not about luck it's all about thinking ahead. I do enjoy your channel. You should suggest us to think better and learn to pay attention.

[@MatoJelic]

You should think better and pay attention

[@Herman47]

It does NOT matter what I would do. The important question is: *What would Tal do?*

[@GRESULLIVAN]

... Just Kidding..... hahhahaha... Mato keep going.. you really very good

[@StewartMiles1]

Sick!

[@ketandhodia5942]

Unbillivable game by taal🤯🤯🤔

[@Fa1rplayy]

this is sick!

[@VikramBharadwajHelloWorld]

"Don't try this at home" xD Epic.

[@groth901]

wonderful game! I could guess the unexpected move from tal, not jocking!!

[@TSgitaar]

Probably my favorite Tal game. Its amazing how he destroyed this player psychologically.

[@blackwhite5180]

One of the best game to sacrified pieces.

[@needpit1]

Mato, could you upload more Paul Morphys and kings gambit games please :D

[@ilyaskingofkings]

mindblow....

[@jrm2376]

crazy tal ... i love it!

[@FedForsberg]

My home town!

[@anilthapa651]

Now I believe in magic. Luv from India.

[@ERROR433]

Mato's best quote so far is from Shakriyar Mamedyarov - Polgar match. He said "What a lady like you do in a position like this" and I laughed all the week long, and that's still funny.

[@oloi818]

why didnt he play RE8 before Nc6 sacrifice?

[@vishalchavda3663]

Dont try this at home... mato u r great.... and please do put these kinds of tal's games... especially where tal wins magically....

[@leoneverte]

Every games playd by Tal is magical.. He loved win beautyful and lose beautyful.. No compromise..!! ))))

[@vishalchavda3663]

true buddy...

[@mariojaimehernandezzuniga]

Las mejores partidas de MTAL son las de su juventud y hasta q fue campeón...después igual jugo partidas notables pero no fue igual y su pirotecnia no provocó el mismo efecto en sus rivales.

[@ena6345]

5:28 its funny how similar the position he saw in his minds eye is

[@sandman0829]

2:35 what happens if after Re8 cxb7 for a hail mary counterattack? Black will win two bishops and knight but after that it seems like bxa8 promoting to another queen is unavoidable. I've worked out: cxb7, Rxe3, Be2, Qxd4, ...Rd1? Or bxa8?

[@cukam5206]

I must like this video

[@1968joseleon]

MATO PLEASE INCREASE THE VOLUME OF YOUR AUDIO! THANK YOU

[@briddhiman1729]

Wow.

[@rainkc5020]

Talk is like the god of tactics...

[@adibgbs3136]

lmaaooo :D im laughin at "don't try this at home " in the end of the video LOOOL

[@laganjoki4869]

kakav kralj!

[@cooladmin2570]

I watch this video atleast once a month. Opponent is not sure which color pieces he has 😂😂

[@larryx4470]

wow!!!!

[@zbelekas]

Still why didnt white castle? After castling if rook takes bishop, the pawn can take pawn forking the rook and the bishop..

[@IMANGHAFOORI]

It was a very ordinary match (but only for Tal)

[@nathanielpeter3296]

Thinking that the opponent made a blunder move turns out to be fatal. Ha ha.

[@akbarnasution6777]

Everytime i'm guessing the move on Tal's game i always looking for a sacrifice lol

[@Digifier]

White didn't want to lose his Bishop after he got Black's Knight. But then Tal takes it with his Rook :D.

[@adesurya8180]

tal see a weakness of bishop on e3 through the king white, so when he offer his knight, szukszta should ignore it, and play his knight from d4 to d2. what do you think ??!

[@HumongousMist]

What a game

[@mangeshdani6411]

Tal the supernatural. God gifted 🙏

[@royalblue0505]

What if PxP at 2:47?

[@user-lz9hp6zm9i]

and where is downsala??

[@josgojiehyp2000]

And this was the game that made Tal my 5 favorite chess player.

[@sandroid1133]

who are The others?

[@josgojiehyp2000]

+Sander Moltumyr Anand Fischer kasprov and my favorite magnus
