Tal Sacrifices His Queen X Times

[@saeedjamali7447]

Finally a Tal game i got tired of watching "accurate games"

[@P.sherman45]

this game is also accurate, engine just sometimes doesnt find tal moves, even in depth 30. tal moves are winning, they just are not the top move. edit: damn, while i was writing this comment engine went up to depth 40 and tal move was the best (Rh1) 😂😂

[@niagra898]

Tal is a madman-he and Bobby would give Stockfish a run for its money.

[@studbagl]

Right?

[@martin7869]

Agreed

[@kovy689]

Tal Sacrifices His Queen V Times

[@siam580]

Pure creativity and class by Tal. Gotta appreciate the opponent's play too. Gave a good fight in a attacking fashion against one of the greatest attackers.

[@matteogauthier7750]

I commend his opponent for playing so aggressively and fearlessly and going after the best attacker of all times with all he had. Great fighting spirit.

[@mridgaf3233]

You'd have to in that situation. A simul vs Tal? I'm throwing everything so I can see myself being checkmated with a bishop and rook while I have QRRNB 😂

[@YotamPiano]

I love Mikhail Tal's games and older games in general. They transport me to a time where chess was played with "feeling" rather than AI like memorization :) Tal, what a chad !

[@wot_hog]

And after Tal won the world championship "in 1860" he lost to Paul Morphy in the house of the rising sun in New Orleans in 1861!

[@philipr1567]

If it wasn't for the American Civil War, Tal would still be world champion!

One doesn't make Tal work for his meal, Tal makes one work for one's loss.

[@Puschit1]

If you play against Tal, YOU are the meal^^

[@Bromodedali]

One of the craziest tactical games i’ve ever seen. So many traps and sacrifices, it’s actually crazy. Truly a magician’s masterpiece, may he rest in peace up there 🥀

[@clandeszipp4564]

He rests in Jewish cemetery in Šmerlis, Riga, about 3 miles from here.

[@NeilTheHippy]

That's why they called him the magician from Riga. R.I.P Misha.

[@jamesk.]

You can feel your enthusiasm in your narrative when Tai is in the match . Well done and thank you for your Utube channel .

[@sultannis]

I have been watching your channel for years, and seeing a Tal video reminds me of the good old days and makes my day special. Thanx Agad!

[@machineFa8]

Tal games are just magical, there is always something very different about these games

[@Harbz]

not wearing a hoodie when there’s a hoodie guy?!

[@jamesec1949]

Thanks! Appreciate your expertise.

[@tintintuntun2]

1860?????? I wish someone make a compilation of slip of tongues of Agad. It would be funny af 😂😂.

[@hcgreier6037]

Uh, ooooold guy 🤣

[@hhgygy]

06:40 Who else has forgotten about our good friend the bishop on C2? 😎🤣😂

[@Ennar]

6:25 at this position, most would try to find something else so they can promote to Queen, Tal promotes to queen with sacrifice so he could play something else. Once you see it, you believe it, but really shows the beautiful mind of the great Magician!

[@georgeallee16]

Tal games are always spectacular. Shoutout to his opponent though, you could tell he knew how to play pretty well

[@deepeshnetam2982]

Coincidentally I wanted to see a new tal game 15 min ago and you dropped this video. Thankyou

[@AndersHaalandverby]

I always want to see agadmator do a Tal game 15 min ago😂

[@randomplayer8957]

LMAO, agadmator proclaimed Tal as a time traveler, 0:22 1860 love it!

[@Aurongroove]

It’s like a totally different way to play chess. Bold sacrifices that buy you ethereal positional advantages from which to then broker more sacrifices. He was so good at it that he was consistently able to fall into material debt - on his terms - and resurface afterwards either equal or at an advantage.

[@Puschit1]

Up to the point where his opponents were hesitant to accept any sacrifice offered by Tal. Which effectively means Tal could occasionally blunder without actually losing a piece^^

[@sgtlaugh]

Pretty cool and funny. Tal sacrificed his original queen X times. In the end, it was accepted. Also, he brought a new queen to sacrifice it just for deflection. Ironic how when his opponent resigned, he had just a bishop and his opponent still had their queen :)

[@Pascal-md9os]

He sacrifised it Twitter times? Wow!

[@newil_yovac]

​@@Pascal-md9osTal so good he could predict the future 😂🤣🤣

[@MdApsharking8743]

Game of tal. Queen sacrifice. I'm in.😅 Happy Birthday Misha

[@anthonysellers6455]

I thought something was terribly when I saw the title of the video until agad reminded us it is Tal’s birthday… what a gem

[@alisterzarkar7163]

This was really a tempo game. Tal sees so far into the future moves that he dragged the opponent into the end game with his pawn ending up on the 7th rank, backed by the bishop. It's beyond my understanding how good these masters are, especially Tal. Wow. That was an incredible game.

[@Saint-tg4jz]

Chess will never be the same again with you Tal...

[@yethenkosi5046]

May he continue resting in Peace, Tal

[@mattshuey1]

Been watching for a while, and learning. I finally ended up seeing a Tal birthday upload.

[@RahulDas-tw7ey]

I started chess bcoz of watching Tal’s Games, he is an inspiration ❤

[@AlbertChang17]

Great game by Kirjatski as well, he does the hoodie guy proud.

[@r.i.a.n.63]

Tal sets up such tempting sacrifices. He even takes the time to repackage them for further temptation. If the carrot on a stick doesn't work, he tries a gold-plated carrot on a stick. Then a diamond-studded solid gold carrot on a stick. Then if that doesn't work he just pushes a passed pawn he created 10 moves ago until you have to resign. HBD to an absolute genius.

[@mozisi]

3:31 promoting the rook to a pig lol

I laughed at that so hard😂

[@michaelmassaro4375]

Great tactics by Tal in this game had me amazed with some of his moves Tal really had loads of talent definitely exhibited in this game like he was toying with his opponent Great Game Have a Great Day

[@mantis-mike5882]

By far the player with the most entertaining games. "Take your opponent into a deep dark forest" - M Tal

[@newil_yovac]

I wouldn't say he was toying with his opponent. His moves were just sophisticated. Even modern engines fail to grasp the ideas quickly. His opponents were probably thinking "What survey is this? They weren't lying about this Tal guy!"

[@michaelmassaro4375]

@@newil_yovac no of course you’re right his opponent was trying to keep up but the moves Tal put on him kept him in a bind throughout the game very clever

You can't spell talent without Tal.

[@CoachUB-001]

Happy Birthday Mikhail Tal. It's because of you that I subscribed to this channel❤❤

[@gigagamingacademy]

Love the channel. Love Tal games. When I was learning chess on my Chessmaster2000 I had catalogs of games by all the greats and I gravitated to Tal's and emulated him. (I remember saying "why did Capablanca make these stupid moves that don't DO anything. This guy sucks!) Have to tell you though, the audio was very abrasive today. I checked on my phone to see if it was just my speakers but no. You may want to listen back and see if it's the same on your end!

[@manjaro_rsa]

Lawyer: How many times did you file for a divorce Mr Tal? Tal : Yes.

[@Beerfish777]

As stated often in the past it takes two players to create a spectacular game. This kuriaski dude made some nice moves, reminds me of a few of the Barnes vs Morphy games.

[@mrvenida]

man. this game had everything. a hoodie guy, nasty discoveries, our good friend the bishop, and too many cool ways to sacrifices the queen.

How many times are you going to offer a full queen, Mikhail? - Yes.

Tal sacrificed his Queen 5 times: Qxf6, gxf3, Be4, Qf5, and finally Qxf8. C8 promotion is not counted as it sacrificed a Pawn. Probably a decent candidate for Sorcery.
