I suspect that these videos will outperform the current-events type videos in the long run, and these will form a much more important legacy for the channel.

@u.v.s.5583 3 ай бұрын

The real Tal was intuitive kind of player, kind of like Nepo, if Nepo was any good because Nepo plays bad moves quickly and loses. The thing with Tal was that he played unsound sacrifices quickly and won. To him being in like -3 positions (with white) meant that he was about to win. On his own death bed, Tal made an unsound sac against Kasparov and flagged Gary without mercy.

I've always respected Tal the most because he was definitely one of the kind. Levy, thank you for covering these games. I always get fascinated by Tal somehow making knights worth more than bishops. I think his opponents were like, "Well, bishops are worth more than knights, right?" and after about 20 moves, their bishops standing there staring at nothing is just horrendous. What a genius!

The only way I was able to beat my Chess app on level 12 (master level) was by this method, and I did it only once. Forcing draws is slightly easier, but I've only achieved this 4 times. Over a hundred losses haha but far more end games recently. Watching these videos is improving my game.
