Welcome to the examination of Mikhail Tal’s attacking strategy. In this video, we’ll try to understand how Tal prepares the ground for his spectacular sacrifices. To do this, we’ll examine a game where Tal constantly improves his pieces, develops the initiative, and increases the pressure on the enemy position until the stage is set for a spectacular sacrifice.
Mikhail Tal vs Istvan Bilek, Asztalos Memorial 1963

In 1996, I talked to Korchnoi about Tal's "magic". Korchnoi said that Tal's "magic" was vastly overrated and was mainly caused by his opponents' weak calculation.

Awesome that you got that opportunity there. In a sense, Korchnoi was correct. Players like Keres, Korchnoi, Fischer (when no longer just a child), and other strong calculators managed to have positive scores against Tal. But Korchnoi was also a bit of a “blunt” individual. The pressure that Tal put was definitely tough to keep up with for people not typically the best in the world

Since playing chess I always tried to model my game after Jacques Mieses. As I continue through life I only hope to aspire to like Tal. It is only through true loss that we gain. He breathes this effortlessly.

@amosdraak3536 Ай бұрын

Very interesting. Not a super commonly referred player Mr. Mieses. May I ask how you became acquainted with his games? Was it his famous rook interference one that first stunned you? 😊

Ill tell ya pal. Its simple the first man who showed me chess was my old man. He always swore by gaining central board positiong. The central four squares offer much. But I follow Jacques because he's declaring let's ignore the central four and utilize the entire board. I think chess boards are still 64 total squares. Ignoring the fundamental principle gives power over all lines. Sadly I'll admit much like Jacques has. When I'm on im scary. If I'm off I'll lose terribly. I'd rather go down embodying my ideology rather than trying to be something I am not. Great question. But it must be reciprocated. How do you prefer to open? What Gms do you appreciate. Pushing pawns one I feel is a lost art. After all pawns demand attention being simply peons.

17:25 Down a R. Which is irrelevant in a vacuum. This, of course, wasn't a blunder of the R. It was exchanged...for compensation...in the form of tremendous positional value...six and a half points worth of positional advantage in fact!! SF has him ahead by 1.5 here. Great stuff!

I enjoy Tal games the most. High risk, high reward. For me this is the true essence of chess. Who will out think the other, not who remembers what the computer calculated. Thank you kindly for another great video

14:18 isnt g5 Qg3 h6 closing the kingside & black can still hold? why did we disqualify this variation?

…I’ve always fancied there to be a chess-sanatorium - best in Old Vienna - for victims of the virago likes of Tal, Schlecter, and Showalter……

How do you figure out what the plans are, when I look at these games by myself it all looks random?

@chesswisdom 24 күн бұрын

By reading the annotations in the books, using computer assistance, and a little bit of my own experience.

Don't worry, it comes with experience. Keep playing and you'll see results.
