two Mikhail, but only one Tal!

This game is beyond me.

I love how Mato talks as if he's under a blanket with a flashlight, way after bedtime.

These Long tactics are just amazing...this kind of chess is dead unfortunatelly

Threatening to kill the cardinal hahahah I really have a good laugh on a lot of Mato's quotes. Mato is the best and he made me love Tal's chess! The king Mato!!

Please show more of Tal's games, because I love is style of play and I can not get enough of his games you post.

unbelievable attack! I love Tal style, he in an artist of chess! and compliments Mato because your lectures are always better and full of variations! thank you for bring the Magician of Riga back in your lectures!

Tal always the best and your presentation is always the best Mato

I think Nezhmedtinov was even crazier! Great video as usual, many thanks

Tal amazing as always. Thanks mato

Can't stop watching Mato's Tal videos. Amazing.

you make the best videos to watch old games! without all the excess! thanks for making these man. good job.

6:33 Mato's best line of the video!

Fantastic game! Tal's games, I even say I like it before seeing the game!

Bd5 was not difficult to find because it's a common way to open the e file in this position when the king is still in the center. But the next move Nd5! is just amazing. It is not everyday that you see a bishop and a knight sacrifice themselves on the same square in turn !

Tal was such an imaginative and amazing player. His approach and style of play added fun to the game of chess. His daringness on the board is what drew me to studying his games. Fischer and Tal are my favorite GMs. I enjoy the style of commentary in your videos, MatoJelic. Your explanations are playful, yet simultaneously concise and helpful. I chuckle when I watch your videos because they make me think of the Count from Sesame Street teaching chess. Thanks for your videos, and keep up the good work.

Mato, thanks for the best chess analysis in KZfaq !!!

Thanks a lot mato . Great game as always by Tal.

I could watch Tal's games all day!

Mato - You are the best chess analyst on the Web. THANK YOU for all your great work. I dig your games every day.

amazing game thanks Mato for the video

At 4.00 where´s the king going? i think you meant king can go to e9 :P

thanks Mato, you're the best.

King to e9

ive recently read the book "the soviet chess convoyer!. i have learned sooo much about evaluating positions! anyway, thats why i havent watched any of your videos Mato. And I will catch up what I've mised!!!

Perhaps influenced by Nezmendinov , Tal was one of the most creative chess player ever. His only weakness was positions that didn't offer him any chance of showing a spark of his characteristic ingenuity.

Fischer played Bd5 in a similar position.

Super !! i love Tal videos!!

Tal is much like Afro Samurai in that his only movement is forward. I usually bring my pieces back when they are attacked and I have can't defend them properly but Tal just throws them into the frey and charge forward - that's what puts him in a different dimension

Slična partija kao Fišer -Rubineti. Pozdrav Mato !

thanks mato!

Mato, i'd like to see a game where Tal loses. He always finds these sacrifice moves and never pays the price for his sacrifice....amazing

Great game again by Tal!

Deeper than I'll ever be able to play, but amazing to see

I was very thrilled during watching this chess game. This kind of game could change somebody's perception on chess as a boring game.

his D4 opening is phenomena and crushes anyone who tries silly Sicilian defences,never saw him especially lose against Sicilian defence.wow!

Lovely!

AWSOME!

Brilliant!

awesome Mato

I am way too over excited when I find the correct moves. Screaming like a little girl probably wasn't a good idea in hindsight.

there are no words only chess moves ...

Thanks for another great video Mato! You have probably anwsered this questions many times in the past but I can't seem to find it, but what chess gui are you using to make these videos?

Nice

Nice game!

This was a good game.

great game Mato, did you get flu? your voice sounds different here! get well soon..

verlo dobro!!!

seems like the pawn on e6 is under mental pressure . . :D good one i`ll try this

Bobby Fischer had a game like this where the guy took the bishop

You learn chess and geography at the same time

I think this is my favorite example of what happens if u put a pawn on e6 before u fiancetto that bishop. its a wasted move against someone who knows what they are doing. For anyone who thinks this opening unusual -- this used to be a very standard line of play for black. This game totally changed the way Sicilian is played.

When Tal played there were three kings at the table.

With Mato commenting chess, anybody improves his chess skills.This is a good example of the Sicilian.I use to play this defense and it is a good one.I think it is the best answer 1. ...c5 against 1.e4.Black has to be very careful in the aperture defending right and then counterattack, I mean when both players have a good understanding of the game.

mato can i find somewhre interwiev with Tal himself ??if u know just post the link please

What do I think of this game? I'll never get to be a GM. ILL TRY THOUGH, because after watching lot of your videos on Tal, I'm getting some of his moves right. But certain sacrifices are always a hit and miss. Hope you can post time control for some of the later videos so that it's easier to gauge decisions under stress and it's effectiveness

Damn! Must have been stressful playing against Tal.

TAL one of a kind! Love it

Lol Tal exploits pins beautifully. It had to get under his opponent’s skin. I love how he renews the pin-exploit with the knight in this. Imagine playing against *that* and trying to keep your focus or take initiative. I’d be so mad lmao

Leave it to Tal to pull a crushing attack out of what seems like a fairly ordinary opening.

Very strong!

im always happy when i guess the correct move

I would have liked you to elaborate a bit at 2:35 and explain why the situation forthcoming would be decisive for white, what chances Tal'd have (as the world's least talented chess player among mankind (excluding the insane), I personally don't see that it is that straightforward) there must be a lot of interesting, challenging possibilities that would spring from this position, maybe including attacking over the King's side!

Perhaps king can go to E8 cracked me up

Tal.. What a genious!

Perfect, More Tal, maybe unsual openings

there were a lot of variations where white could be having a hard time after those sacrifices. i just couldnt get into it too deep. im actually not satisfied with the variations you showed in this video. but nevertheless, i still thank you for posting this video.

Compare this with todays gm chess games....

Tal´s moves are hard to guess compared with Botvinnik´s !

i had review all possible continue for black and they all loss i took one hour omg tal how did you find these moves well all except one can any one tell me after sacrificing the bishop what if he played King to d7 instead of bishop to e7 what is the best move for white in that position

Tal played with a fearless and ingeniously creative spirit. Today's top players simply play not to lose. Like Tal said "To play for a draw, at any rate with white, is to some degree a crime against chess".

Mato i dont see tal games this days.. to be honest with you i don't visit the channel regularly.

By going over so many variations instead of just showing the game as it was, Mato confuses the play. Perhaps he should also not get excited at some places & move the pieces slowly.

Could you give us the top 10 chess players and why they are the best ?

It is just not enough to have the first name Mikhail...must have the last name Tal....

I think Tal is a magician!

wauuuuuuuu

Hey mato pls make more videos of rashid nezhmetdinov.

The only move that I saw was Kn-D5.

Elegant chess....

Who's win? Tal or mukhin?

3:51 The King is going to e9

20 moves and game is over,i dont think i would hv lasted 10 moves as black.every Tal's moves hv a killer reasoning behind them.

Tal is the chess GOAT.

Tal plays a killah move

100th!!!!

Mato: Did you see Tal's killing moves? Me: What? What happened, is it over?

Somewhere in this game, the skills shown here are too much for me.

How about posting some games where Tal loses?

What do you think of this movie? To be honest, it irritates me. Just once, I wish I could produce a game like Tal. 'Sigh".

Tal is tall always

and eeeeef lol

Tal's king is stilling watch the oder king die..... now i know that tal is the real genious... all the other players are Simply players of chess..

why at 0:52 black doesn't play b4 to push the knight back and win the pawn on e4?

Таль играл на уровне КМСа

Tal is one of the greatest contributions that the Jewish people have made to mankind!

Super computer brain Mikhail tal

I want to know say that, Fischer did the exact same move, Bishop to d5! I think Two copied Fischer. 😅 just kidding.

To kill the cardinal 😂😂😂😂
