Tal vs Botvinnik 1960
Moscow
No sooner did Mikhail Botvinnik regain his title, the chess world became entranced by charismatic young Latvian named Mikhail Tal. Tal won the 1958 interzonal tournament at Portoroz, then helped the Soviet Union to retain the Chess Olympiad; before going on to win the 1959 Candidates Tournament with 20 out of 28 points--a point and a half ahead of second place Paul Keres.
Tal often sacrificed material in search for the initiative in chess. With such intuitive sacrifices, he created vast complications, and many masters found it impossible to solve all the problems he created over the board, though deeper post-game analysis found flaws in some of his conceptions. Although this playing style was scorned by ex-World Champion Vasily Smyslov as nothing more than "tricks", Tal convincingly beat every notable grandmaster with his trademark aggression.

In my opinion,this is one of the few channels that can provide quality entertainment for more than 10 minutes
if the person likes chess.
True.. : )
I hate chess but I just come here for his awesome voice.
Tal could achieve an impossible checkmate with just a stare.
i agreed
And there I was staring at the thumbnail thinking "how on Earth is this checkmate"
Well you can bribe opposite knight.
That's me asking that very same question every time just before I'm mated: "how on earth is this checkmate"😆
@@GaganSingh-nx2yv and king
In this game Tal took himself to a deep dark forest where he saw 2+2 = 5
lol
The Hands that healed nations were spread out on a tree, He took the nails for me, living He loved me, dying He saved me, buried He carried my sins far away, freely we are justified, freely forever, one day Jesus is coming, what a glorious day, what a glorious day, even so come Lord Jesus come in Jesus Name amen accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and be saved today amen, repent of your sins and come to Jesus for the kingdom of heaven is at hand and Jesus alone saves amen God Jesus The Holy Spirit love you all in Jesus precious and holy and mighty Name amen :) Jesus
Best comment yet
Ryan Flanagan you got issues dude.
@@ryanflanagan9624 bro?
Player: “I don’t understand Tal, you literally just gave me pretty much all your pieces including queen! Thank you
Tal: You’re welcome, checkmate!
Masterpiece 😂😂
lol Interesting that Tal and I have made the same mistake. Only difference is I make that mistake in the current position on the board, rather than visualizing 10 moves in the future.
"You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5"
Famous last words
Like the joke about the child predator who takes the child into the forest, and says "you think YOU'RE scared? I'm going to have to leave these woods ALONE!"
@@medexamtoolscom well it's nothing like that at all really.
It's about giving your opponent obscure positions to deal with hoping they crack under the pressure and time pressure and play a bad move as opposed to rape and murder
@@medexamtoolscom With a username and jokes like that I do not want to be alone with *you*. :P
Were those actually his last words
"...and the path leading out is only wide enough for one"
One time Agadmator wanted to buy an very old house. But he was scared, because he heard, that there should be ghosts in the house. So he asked the owner, if there were ghosts. The owner answered: no, I already live 500 years in this house. But I haven't seen any ghosts in this house.
:D :D :D
nice one
I think I'm missing something, I don't understand this anecdote.
The owner said he lived 500 years there. The owner WAS the ghost.
boy do I feel stupid
Tal looked like a drunk guy driving a Ferrari at 120mph
Kinda, like Al Pacino in the movie “scent of a woman” when he’s driving the Ferrari
totally incredible
There are good chances that he was drunk during this game!
It feels soooo satisfying that I am not the only one who is hallucinating while playing chess.
almost all hallucinates hehe
Gotta lay off the shrooms
agadmator best youtuber!!
yes really
#suggestion
I would really enjoy if you made Kasparov's path to world champion like you did with Tal. I really enjoyed this series (I still do) and I would truly want to see more of the similar player 'paths' like this one. Thank you in advance, and as always, love your content, you are truly amazing. Proud to be your countryman!!
king_of_ thorns If he covered Kasparov's match with Karpov, it would take him more than 100 videos, excluding the ones he has already covered.
@@HeisenbergBrB It would be worth It anyway
Well I'm old enough that that one I followed in real time ! 😁
No internet at the time, and no cable TV with so many channels that you would have had a chance to have a transmission of chess match on it, but that now forgotten feature on TV that was teletext, and they managed to fit a chess board in ascii art inside !
I love Tal!! 1. I love the passage from the book,the hallucination over the board; Tal is always a human being first. He never stopped being a human, a humble poet, a servant of art, whatever his standing in the chess pantheon. 2. I love at 9:33 hearing you say " Tal doesn't want to risk it". Doesn't want to risk drawing with three pawn islands against 4 pawn islands and doubled c pawns! The category "what Tal considered a risk" is one of those wonders of the world which endeared him to chess fans forever. I watch this series as if we don't yet know the result of the 1960 championship. Thank you.
Absolutely. Most or nearly all players would not want to admit to that little embarrassment .
wow! the way Mikhail Tal process his thoughts is really really out of this world!!!
Tal hallucinated over the board... I very much appreciate both players for really fighting it out in every game and not looking for easy draws. Many thanks for this great analysis!
The best Chess commentator on RUclips.
Beautifully explained as always agadmator, "hallucinating over the board" haha!!...Can you imagine the pressure the players were under,...it's the world title, the slightest slip and you lose, nowhere to hide on a chessboard!
I used to watch porn after work. I now watch your chess channel instead.
👍👍
me too. I think internet chess is kicking my porn interests
The better kind of mating
@@adamleckius2253 underrated comment lol
Chess > porn
Tal was seeing ghosts in this game. That’s ironic. Usually it’s Tal’s opponents are the ones seeing the ghosts. The magician from Riga is my favorite chess player. 😃
even i was hallucinating while watching, i even paused the video n was wondering how in the seven heavens it is a checkmate with the black knight protecting the h7, i felt like tal for a moment there 😂
really drives me to hallucination too haha
Why is it checkmate?
It's not, Tal thought (hallucinated) that the white knight was in the g5 position
13:39 “ the knight on f5 is pretty much doing the same thing as it was on e8, except for much more “ classic Agadmator 😆
Your comment about reaching move 38 and not being able to see everything is notable. Fischer said he used his advantage in physical and mental endurance to win many of his games. He simply stayed more mentally alert and "in the game" because of his superior endurance. This won him many games throughout his career.
This is amazing!!! and its is even more amazing to those who have read "Tal-Botvinnik, 1960 by Mikhail Tal" you do capture the essence.
one of yours best videos, not only providing historical context but also showing "computer" moves. this is why yours is the best chess channel
I almost had a reason to close RUclips this time, thanks Agadmator!
While I only play chess 2 times a year, I enjoy this channel immensely. My favorite pleasure is Samuel Lloyd's chess problems.
Can you believe it? How do we deserve these uploads 😍
The good thing about these draws is that we get to see more great chess.
Tal and Fischer, the two most exciting and ingenious players ever.
4:46 It's nice to know that GMs of even Tal's caliber are still only human.
@11:31
If you take the Night (Bxd5), you can always retreat the Bishop (Bg8) after Qc8+. That was the main reason Be6 was played....
PD: If Any1 wants to know something about the 1959 candidates tournament, feel free to ask!
How were the candidates chosen?
Who won ?
Fabi!
Sahith Reddy whooosh
@@jinxblaze I'm pretty sure he wasn't born then
this guy is flash I mean I say this in every video and this time I am really shocked and well happy
The funny thing is that if for some reason Botvinnik had the same idea and did the "checkmate", Tal would probably take the Queen precisely with the black knight that was "defending" it.
Another One!?
How lucky are we to live in the age of internet and agadmator? Being able to enjoy high quality chess with background informations and dry humour... Canˋt get any better.
it's kind of a bummer that it took massive engines to change some of the opening theory. kinda wish some genius had just come along.. oh well. is there nothing left to really discover in chess?
Beginning chess player here. I really like how you present games--very quickly and with dense exposition and commentary.
It's 1:31 a.m. here in my country and I was about to sleep but I had a hunch that u might do another Tal video... I checked my fone and there it is...keep it up Tony it's always a pleasure :)
#suggestions Alekhine vs Capablanca world championship series..
yes
I would really like the subscriber count to move quicker! Can we all have a unified push to at least like every video? I hope at least a few of you are with me!
I love his nonchalant attitude, makes it that much better
At 14:25 knight to f4 would've been better for tal. White will either lose both queen and knight or get check mate...or if g2 pawn moves to g3, black night can move to e6 with an attack on white queen, also guarding the g7 pawn. Plus the discovered attack on white's knight. White queen can obviously take a pawn but still i think a queen, a knight and bishop can stop a passed pawn easily. I may be wrong. Bdw i love your introduction i.e " Hello everyone!!"
6:20 We have a lot in Common with Mikhail Tal,hallucinating over the board.😂😂 Perhaps am a G.M my self.
Tal was actually incredibly humble for admitting his bad calculations. Nothing was stopping him from never even mentioning that, however he still told the truth.
I didn't like Nh3; would have never even considered it. Surprised Botvinnik made this move twice in 2 games of this match...
That moment when you draw so much that you start hallucinating about losing
Kasparov for Tal- he was the only one I knew who didn't calculate the variants, he saw them. An ordinary man has to calculate, to think this through, but he just see it all. It occurs in great musicians, great scientists. Tal was absolutely unique.
Thanks for including and sharing the part from the book in the video
Presentation is king .. same game . Lot of channels and this the best .
"Have a great rest of the evening."
Best outro ever
What a game! What a rush!
I've done that before more then I want to admit. I love that tal made me feel slightly less crazy lol.
That paragraph from Tal's book was indeed a nice addition
I have seen almost all of ur videos but in this u look the most handsome and similar to linardo de capreo .
Love and respect from india.
Everynight i watch these before bed, and every morning i rewatch it.
A SUPERB GAME!! Batlle of mind amid some inaccuracies. I enjoyed it
Really enjoyed the novelty of directly reading from the book!
damn we're up to 1960 candidates now, only 58 years of content left to binge watch!
With how fast Agad is at posting videos I half expected round 12 of the 2018 championship tournament
Other ghosts from this video:
7:33 - Queen captures on F8??
11:25 - After catching the Knight, Queen to C8 is terrible? Why?
Bishop would just retreat to g8 blocking the check lol. Agamator is smoking the strong stuff
In those day, if the game is continue from last position on next day, then if players agreed on draw.. then would next game start on the same day or on next day??
vishal chavda I don’t know but next day makes more sense to me.
vishal chavda next day
If a game was adjourned it would take place the next day in most cases. Although I once adjourned a game for dinner. The rule in the 60s was something such as 5 hours or 6 I forget or 40 moves whichever was first. Then the player to move had to make a sealed move that only he or she knew. The adjudicator or director would keep the envelope until the game was resumed. Some very great games arose because of adjournment analysis. It was also possible even with all the time to overlook a move which I did once missing a move that was not a direct threat but enabled me to win a Queen and then there was a fork which won my Q and I was material up...I had more material but I lost. My opponent was a young woman at our club (int he 80s).
This video make me feel confidence that even GM Tal makes mistakes just like I did
Moral: don't drink vodka before a game.
Lol vodka was the reason he became so good 🙄
I make that kind of miscalculation all the time, last week I thought I'd found a beautiful variation with a sacrifice only to realize halfway through that there would be a pawn in the way of my queen and it didn't work.
Marcel Masqué There are two kinds of players, those that has happened to, and complete liars.
Really enjoyed this one Antonio - thanks for your contributions :-)
Really appreciate all your hard work!! I’m enjoying all of your videos.good work man!
Best Chess Channel on RUclips..many greetings from Germany
This game played 30 years before i born and even that time there were so strong chess players.
Edutainment related channel.I spend most of time to watch these channel.
“Tall alucinating over the board “ :)
Quite the quote
4:09
Bro.....
I seriously thought it was the part of actual game..😀😁😁
Amazing, that hallucinating, made me feel better about it happening to me.
i fell off couch laughing after hearing agad say tal saw ghosts!!! its so funny!!! XD XD
Antonio, I haven't seen this latest video yet but I wanted to ask how come you never ask us "what's the idea here?" Anymore? That used to be your version of MatoJelic's "killer move!" Thanks for all your great videos.
Looking at these videos i realize two things. Chess is far more awesome than i first thought. Second. I will never be good at it since i struggle to even think two moves in advance. :P
What an exciting match...they put on quite a show...
Great analysis. Really enjoyed that. Thanks.
Yeeeeeeeees!
Botvinnik's strategical genius against (the faulty) tactical genius of Tal!!!
10:12 Queen attacks the king on g1 -Agad 2018
Love everything about this match
Hallucinating over the chess board cracked me up!
You, sir, are an international treasure.
Game start at 1:10

Mikhail Tal: Doctor, I keep seeing ghosts on the chess board.
Doctor: Did the glasses help any?
Mikhail: Yes. Now I see them much more clearly.
Ta 6:08 time check from queen does not end the game as you said , the black king can take white queen
First video I saw that was a draw on the channel. Didn't think I'd enjoy it so much
Botvinnik seemed to really lack confidence throughout this World Championship Match. He always opted for the safest lines, and tried his very hardest to not give Tal any tactical play. It wasn't like his usual play at all
Tal vs Botvinnic - 1 in the top of the most epic anime fights
Both players are awesome: )
Thank you for publishing yet another marvelous game, keep it up. Love ya!
Wow! I'll look for the game finishing moves. That was a nice battle to watch.
It's amazing what you can't see when you are under pressure.
Concise and accurate.
I clicked on the thumbnail wondering how this was checkmate. I then spent a good 2 Min paused at 2:15 wondering how this was checkmate.
Your accent is so soothing. Are you from Croatia?
He is
"wasting time hallucinating over the board" is my game strategy tbh
Wow, what an amazing game, in case you didn’t know guys Mikhail ends up winning this one!
