    7:33 -- nah... precisely *_Qh4_* is *_THE_** most* precise move, because after like 7-8 moves of optimal play, White is left with Queen + 6 pawns against Black's rook, bishop and only 3 pawns.
    Whereas your scenario here, which Tal played, _Bxf7_ is *CLEARLY* less advantageous for White. (altho, ofc, he still WINS).

    These 2 Titans of Chess played 44 times. Petrosian won 5, Tal won 4, with 35 draws. Always a Heavyweight fight.

    Very much like yourself, I guess, I’m very, very impressed with Tal’s play, but, in order to learn more, could you also go into the games Tal played against Korchnoi? Korchnoi was the only player who usually knew how to beat Tal…. So, what do you think?

    The great Petrosian was rarely caught like this.
    I can proudly say that I saw the knight sacrifice immediately.

    8:03 - I wondered if black could move the queen to g8 (instead of the bishop to f5), but then the knight goes to f7 (check) and the queen must sacrifice herself.

    7:31 why not take with queen instead of bishop? That would have given another defender to that bishop sacrifice idea of Tal's then maybe that could have staved off mate. ?
