    The only thing I want to say is that no one else in the world can play like the magician from Riga and no one else can explain this game better than you Mato Jelic... Although I watched all your Mikhail Tal's uploaded games but this game is incredibly amazing.,my best ever.....

    All those recent chess computers mentioned here are strong cold calculating super masters, but they do not come close to Tal. Despite all the imperfections that humans like Tal have, players like Tal transform chess into an art and not just a bland raw number crunching puzzle.

      @7616-f4y 7 лет назад +5

      A0 is the only chess computer in recent times to not employ a "position crunch" strategy and perform well. Stockfish is great at chess, but its search tree system is utterly boring and only possible by a computer. Sure, A0 still searches thousands of positions a second, but it does so much more elegantly than "here, let me test every possible position and find out which one is the best for my built in rating system"

    The queen just sat there as a constant threat for so long... just staring at the King... and Koblents simply couldn't get rid of her. Never seen a piece stuck for so long yet dictate the entire game.

    Ovo je, ljudi, neverovatno! Evo razloga zbog cega volim sah. Talj je pokazao koliko je ova igra prelepa. Gledajuci Talja, cak i onom kome je ova igra nepoznata, dobije zelju da je igra. Ovaj covek uliva samopouzdanje svakome. Pricaju, kako su Taljove zrtve nekorektne, te ovo, te ono... kompjuteri to "dokazuju", ajde de. Pa da je Talj ziv, dokazao bi da su ti programi pravljeni za decu. Ima li nekog velemajstora koji mu je dorastao?
    Magnus, Karjakin, Kramnik, Anand, moj do mojega itd, mogao bi Talj da im pruzi sansu da igraju naslepo simultanku s njim (uz konjak, naravno), ako mu pokazu da znaju da redjaju figure, jer ono sto oni igraju i nije sah. Oni misle da igraju sah, ali to nije sah. Nazalost, Talj nije ziv da im to kaze, pa oni samo misle da igraju sah.
    Jedini koji je ikada igrao sah, to je bio Talj! Da il je sah igra, nauka, UMETNOST..., to zna samo Talj! Mi mozemo samo da nagadjamo.

    I love how Mato explains a game without over analyzing. He knows that we know he understands chess. No need to give the engines top 6 suggestions after each move. Just gives variations when it matters.
    And, I like that he sounds like a cold war era east European spymaster

    • @d4slaimless
      @d4slaimless Год назад

      The thing is, I don't understand chess that good. In some variations where he stops after saying "white is winning here" I have to run the engine. I am certainly not good enough as Stockfish at depth 40, so unless I am shown the line till the end I do not understand how white is winning. Like in this position at 6:38: (1rb2k2/R7/p1Bb2nn/3p1p2/8/2N2P2/PPP5/2KR4 w - - 1 1) Mato proposes Rh1 and white is winning . I can't see how exactly white is going to win, material is about equal. And for Rh1 evaluation is 0.0 at depth 46 with proposed move for black Bc5.

    This is very complex. Have a good look around 6:50 Nearly all pieces are actively involved in the game.

There was no knight "sleeping" on the rim, many moves away from the spot where action was happening... Fascinating game

    My favorite commentator on chess for some years now (since Tal actually) is MJ. GM Tal walked up to the table when I was running Deep Thought II in Long Beach (it was connected over a dialup to Carnegie-Mellon where the rest of the team was physically located with DT) when it beat GM Larsen and co-won the event with GM Miles. I have thought for some years now what two quick blitz games between DT and GM Tal would have done to the world. However, I failed to suggest it. Unfortunately, GM Tal is no longer with us and DT I/II having mutated to Deep Blue and retired 20+ years ago in 1997 before the 2017 anniversary homage by Google DeepMind AI (Chess) crushed StockFish in a 100 game match (unique playing style in GDMA) , we will never know. However, Tal (easily) remains my favorite player of all time. He was quite gifted and I enjoyed his his top chess newsman's review of the table where we had the link to DT setup with the support of Les Crane of Software Toolworks (sponsor) at the event. My personal instructor, Richard Shorman of Hayward California, trained me on Morphy/Capablanca/Tal, in that order and advocated a sacrificial, completely non-drawish extreme-pre-Romantic, non-materialistic style to the game which influences my play and preference to this day.
