[@hrishikesh97]

This Tal structure is insane!! 😧😧

[@fanjin]

In the final position, black can play Qxd1+ first and then move the bishop, and in the end white is up only one piece not two.

[@michaelmassaro4375]

As soon as that passed pawn promotes to Queen game is over

[@kaushikvedpathak5277]

U r right at 5:32 queen takes knight check. Bishop takes queen. Then pawn promtion. He will be up by only 1 piece

[@zevneumark-gaudet4390]

Which is still completely winning and Black does well to resign

[@tanaygaming1250]

But then why will he give the queen for the rook

[@dwijuni4707]

Well in that case, after pawn promotes to queen and king moves, tal simply move away the queen instead of taking the rook and he will have a queen and 3 pieces against a rook, a bishop, and a knight

[@CMAAvinash]

Agad. there are so many beautiful games you already covered 5-6 years ago. could u pls re-upload with new style? we will really love to watch them again..

[@shrirangbondale2263]

This might be 100% accuracy game that tal played

[@TerryCristopher]

I luv watching as someone who knows no theory, I would’ve gone knight to h5 like you said, and I wouldn’t have taken the rook, and for sure get rid of the pawn but I trust you that it was still a bad position

[@josequintero8615]

I wanna see Tal's games with black pieces, too. I'm trying to find some, but here in KZbin, I can barery see any

Agadmator probably has many in his back log I do come across Tal on other ‘programs’ from time to time

[@juanjan__]

Great game, thanks for it! Now two opinions: there's no sound when you move the pieces. Did you change that forever or is it just a thing for this video. Personally, I prefer with sound. And I also preferred your previous camera. This one is a bit too dark in this video (could be the lighting in your room for it, of course) but I also think it king of has the "contrast" a bit too high in the other videos you used it for. Just that, my two cents, hope that's not a problem 🙂

Wait a minute. Has nobody mentioned the error: saying a queen and a rook is the same as a queen and two rooks?! Tal immediately recaptured the rook with Nxd1. He sacced TWO major pieces, not three

[@rogerstone3068]

g5! I got it I got it I got it! I play like Tal! (In my dreams, anyway.) LATER, having watched the rest - well, if I'd foreseen what follows, casually sacrificing all three of your strongest pieces, then the excitement would be justified. This is a jewel amongst chess games. Thank you, Antonio.
