Mikhail Tal's Best Chess Games | Greatest Moves, Sacrifices, Tactics, Traps, Strategies & Ideas

Here's one of the greatest chess games ever played between Bukhuti Gurgenidze (white pieces) & Mikhail Tal (black pieces) at the 24th Soviet Chess Championship in Moscow in 1957. Reviewing this game we'll learn how to play & sacrifice like the magician. We'll analyze his strategy, moves, ideas & tactics. Mikhail Tal made a name for both himself and the Benoni defense with his fantastic victories on the black side. Playing Gurgenidze in the Soviet Chess Championship of 1957, Tal setup a great trap by making a knight sacrifice & also offering a queen sacrifice to mate his opponent! Following this game we can learn important Chess Lessons like power of attacking a weak color, mating patterns (Boden's mate) & the power of using all your pieces to target the opponent's king. I also have an interesting endgame chess puzzle at the end of this video, let's see if you can solve that.

Mikhail Tal never loses, he just sacrifices his King sometimes

[LocaIPakistani]

"There are two types of sacrifices. Correct ones, and mine."

[rajsrinivasan]

Mikhail Tal's friend Rashid Nezhmetdinov was a great attacking player too. Mikhail Tal once said the happiest day of his life was the day he lost to Rashid Nezhmetdinov.

When Tal's playing, there's only one thing in His mind..."Matlab Baazi Jeetne Se Hai, Phir Chaahe Pyada Kurbaan Ho Ya Raani"😎He's just a magician...such a genius😌🙏

[Tyrell_Corp]

I will never forget, discovering Tal for the first time. I went through two of his books. He is by far my favorite player. And the idea of being flexible I believe is tantamount to winning on the board. One situation can suddenly transmute into another, and it is up to us to pounce on the dynamics of new opportunities. (Kind of like life. Lol) Great analysis!

[rifatspk]

4:59 Both the queen and rook don't know what to do !!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

[advyaagrawal]

Wow Tal is just so brilliant. Don't even know how he comes up with such fascinating sacrifices. Absolutely Amazing

[exs]

Tal never fail to amaze. Brilliant coordinated attack by Tal. Only one option : Surrender

[CMK]

Puzzle Solution:
1. Qxe5 dxe5 (exchange queens)
2. h4
If 2...f5 then 3. gxf5 gxf5 4. h5 and white uses the passed h-pawn to promote to a queen
If after h5 black plays f4, then Kc3 and Kd3 to chase black's f-pawn and ultimately stop it from promoting.

I think this is the correct solution.

I really love how Mikhail Tal's game is always interesting to watch with the best explanation ❤

[pareshd]

Gosh.... Thanks that Jitendra explained this game ... All of Tal's moves were like bouncers ... No idea of whats going to happen next .. atleast in case of other players, you get to understand their game plan ... But this magician from Rega was just another level... I love the game of Chess more so...because of Him ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏😍

[MrGoatMan]

Puzzle Solution: yes, exchange the queens because then you can play h4.then you can use your 2 powerful g and h pawns to push and force a passed pawn, and you can play Kc3 to stop black's e pawn from promoting

[MAX-oqee]
