Fantastic game and fantastic commentary! Spectacular!!!!

I absolutely love your explanation

One of the Greatest Games of All Time! Although Korchmoi was 5 years older, Tal, the Brilliant Attacker, was able to win the World Championship before his rival, a Great Strategist, reached his peak. Tal was only able to retain theChampionship for 1 year. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s both men continued to be among the world's Top 5 players as the Championship shifted from Petrosian to Spassky to Fisher to Karpov. Tal, plagued by ill health and rumors of substance abuse, suffered from a small amount of decline before dying in 1992. Korchnoi continued to be a strong contender for the Throne. His rivalry with Karpov also ranks among the very greatest. Korchnoi continued as one of the Top 10 players well into his 70s, possibly being the strongest 75-year-old ever! He used his vast experience and knowledge to defeat strong players who thought they could out-prepare him using computers! The legacy of these 2 immortal players, who tried not to bear ill will toward each other when away from the chessboard, is truly a Gift from God.

Could you do Alekhine vs Capablanca 1938 AVRO? Love your videos!

(0:50) Ne5 - White's bad mistake in the opening, leading to (1:47) a lost position four moves down the road - I don't see the brilliancy in winning after your opponent stumbles at the very beginning.

Somehow, my 1600 opponents play better than Tarrasch when I try to create literally any attack

That was cruel. Thank you for your careful analysis, it is appreciated.

Interesting. Similar to the "Tomb game" I think it is called. I forget who played it, perhaps Nimzowitch.

could you review Alekhine vs Capablanca 1938 AVRO in a next video? You make great content and your commentary is amazing btw!

Ya ochin loobloo vashi yroki.

A showalter game? Fun fact showalter was called the Kentucky lion because of his red mustache. Google jackson showalter. Imagine all that red

Very beautiful. I would have played f3 without thinking ...

To quote the famous grandmaster Sir Mixalot, " My Anaconda don't want none unless you've got buns, hon." Look for penetration near your opponent's buns.

Thanks mentor. You have helped increae my rating by 200 ELO eversince I have started to watch these video's. I will let you know when I am ready to play a game against you ;)!

Tal Smyslov games were always fascinating. Smyslov beat Tal his fair share of times too.

quite clear, thanks!

I'm not much of a chess player myself. My playing skills are only a little more than knowing how each piece can be moved on the board. My question is, how did the white queen move from square G3 to square D2 in a single move? I probably missed something, but can't figure out what it was.

7:40 "one of the most spectacular pawn breakthroughs in the center...y" lol

Woaw probably these 2 players in 1900s were better then many IMs and NMs today... Very nice game, thank you for sharing and explaining all the possible variations. Keep up the good work

superior presentation and explanation. very nicely done. I have subscribed.

Subscribed

Superb explanation.

1:50 I don't understand why the knight cannot move to a5 and attack the white bishop.

Is this your very own analysis? It is really good. Is there a good (free) resource for games like this with annotation/commentary?

A masterpiece. Well annotated. Thank you

Great video, really enjoyable!

Great explanation as always 😊 because of your explanation I understand why the pieces was moved to a particular square

(3:39) C4 - after which Black castles, which you show to be inferior to Bg4, which move can now be prevented by White's h3. So here's my simple question: why did White give Black a chance to play that superior move Bg4 by playing c4 instead of h3? (What made c4 necessary at this point?)

Not really, in today's age this means nothing, black clearly just played badly...

Great game by Tarrash.

Deserves mention how white early plays Bh6 cramping blacks kingside, later Ba6 disrupting his queenside. These bishop manouvres are not too uncommon stand alone. But both in the same game are, I'd say :)

Masterpiece

19:47 i would've definitely played Bc6 first before doing anything on the kingside, you cant let black with any counter play, besides that if hxg5 cant black play Rc2? Or is it still losing for black?

1:59 isn't Na5 an option, attacking the bishop & gaining tempo?

Tal was genius...what a game!

Smyslov is like a Human version of Fischer! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for uploading this analysis. I do not like showy, tactical combinations, they have their place but for me, are not the bedrock of chess. This example of positional play is timely as I've been wading through examples of combinations and traps, because that's what everyone plays now. The research is necessary but I prefer the positional school!

🌹Happy New Year 2025 ! 🌹

My favorite phrase that always makes me laugh is when you say ‘deadly threat’ haha! Cheers

tarrasch the great

Excellent work, i need to work on not getting squeezed like this

Thank you so much, I feel really inspired. I often play the boring games like four knights where there's not really much fun and this game shows me that it's possible to create interesting and fantastic game in this situations.

Superb lesson, as usual.

Thanks for the nice educative game with analysis once again ❤.

What a game ❤

Wonderful game. Thank you for the attention for it and for your professional explanation of the players strategies (but which we are used in meanwhile)!

You're great commenting the game! Straightforward but also instructive, pretty well-balanced, now I want to see your other videos

Thanks a lot for your exceptional chess academy!

Both players showed their mental stamina. Excellent analysis ❤

It's poetry, not game ❤
