Asking us to pause the video and try to find the best move has helped me immensely with my chess. I've been getting the correct moves a lot more often and have been winning most of my chess games. Thanks Mato!
Becoming more and more fascinated with Tal's style of gameplay. Also loving the fact that he looked like a mad scientist or crazy villain that always comes up with some mad-genius plan.
Just a mind blowing attack.. Tal was a chess genius and I'm a solid 1930 player. But he makes me look like a beginner. Tal was unreal. Thanks for the great videos Mato, I subscribed. God bless you. :-D
Mihail Mihailov: On the contrary: If the *late* Tal sacs against you, RUN! (Later, if you survive, try to figure out why you were playing against a skeleton in the first place.)
belki 1 yıldır videolarını izliyorum. o kadar içten o kadar güzel anlatıyor ki. satrancı sıkıcı bulabilen insanlar bile zevkle dinleyebilir Mato'yu. ayrıca ingilizceyi biz türkler gibi vurgulayarak konuştuğu için anlamakta hiç zorluk çekmiyorum. :)
Sorry for a mistake. Thank you for correcting me. Note has been added to the video clarifying the issue: Game was played in former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia
in Turkish ve pronounce (and also write) Makedonya with "k". but you might be right about while speaking English we should pronounce it with "c". anyway, another great video from a great chess teacher. thank you so much Mato. salutes and greetings from Turkey.
Tal taught us all sooooo much......There have been other great attacking players: Morphy, Anderson, Janowski, Ossip Bernstein, Bogoljubov, Spielmann, Alekhine, just to name a few, but NO ONE crystallized "Attacking Chess principles like Tal...He set the bar and changed chess forever....EVERYONE that plays chess owes a tremendous debt to Misha Tal, regardless of their own style of play.. He is simply put the "Poet Laureate" of chess. Thanks Mato so much for still another imnstructive asnd entertaining masterpiece Happy Holidays Mato and everyone else
Your videos are short and snappy and expertly narrated with that charming accent of yours. I think you have the best chess channel on UA-cam. Happy New Year!
I pronounced Macedonia the way Slav Macedonians pronounce it. And pronounced Pirc the way man (Pirc) himself pronounced it. And thank you for a compliment
A "routine brilliancy" from Tal. He's played so many similar attacks that they eventually ceased to be a surprise. Timmann probably knew what was coming.
I actually found the move Rxe5, feeling quite smart. I thought it would deflect the pawn making Ng5 possible and sticking with the plan of mating at h7.
Tal played in Skopje !?Wow did t know that ..one of the greatest chess players played in my city :D lol ...Now about this game when you said we rich critical point :S (i was whole like how , what , totally confused )..anyway a great game and really instructive chess game pozdrav !!: ))
Looked at this for about 5 mins and didnt pick up the rook exchange. Even after the exchange I was struggling to see how Black couldnt trade their way out of the situation! Brilliant Chess love it!
+Jose Salazar there was another player he name was Rashid from Russia in the forties.He thought Tal how to play aggresively .that guy Rashid won the soviet championship 5 times
I recommend a book: “From Chess Novice to Advanced Player in 7 Days” This is a book worth owning. With the book you will get a password to online training site. You will be inspired and your chess will improve. You will beat people in chess you couldn’t beat before.
In alot of the Tal games I've seen, Tal is always capturing knights and bishops with his rook in exchange for a better position. He apparently relies on his rooks to take out pesky minor pieces so his plans will work out more smoothly. Just a thought. :P
After watching like half a dozen Tal games from commentary from thechessnetwork and Mato I don't know why anyone would LET Tal have his F3 knight, two moves from that juicy F7 pawn he loves so much
Really? They pronounce it with a hard "c"? Well I learned something today. I already knew Pirc was pronounced "peertz". I am a little OCD about words, but I am a lot entertained by your videos. Keep them coming please. Thank you.
Pirc did not blunder but Timman blundered for not exchanging his Bishope against white's Night in f3 , the proverb says :" It's the singer not the song "! Thanks Mato for your excellent choice and comment !
i like tal's offensive style a lot, he is one of the players with most fantasy, but how was his defensive play? was he as good when playing black or when he had to defend?
This really begs the question as to whether Tal ever played black. :P Also, Mato, as a request, in the future, is it possible to upload more games of black winning too? Regards from India. >:)
In my version of the 'KIlla move' I was thinking first to capture bishop on g7. Black wouldn't have many options after that. If black pushes pawn to g5 , Nf3 would capture it (sounds like a Tal sacrifice) and black would be in big troubles. Not to mention, if black king captures bishop on g7..then rook takes Ne5. What do you think Mato?. Great video!!..thank you.
Mato, did tal ever work on an opening line idea so much we could call it tal's opening/line? or come up with any replicable traps? such as the fischer trap as an example of fischer doing so
mato, I know chess rules and how to play chess, but I don't know names of the openings and defenses :) I don't understand here why you say this is pirc defense and I see king's indian defense. Can someone explain me?
Asking us to pause the video and try to find the best move has helped me immensely with my chess. I've been getting the correct moves a lot more often and have been winning most of my chess games. Thanks Mato!
Thats the best motivation !
really the best chess commentary in youtube and the best parting message ever....
Thank you

Yeahh!
3 finger hand? Didn't know.
That's awesome. Definitely my favorite player now as well, haha.
I love the way mato explain things.
Fantastic Mato Jelic! Thanks for keeping Mikhail Tal's legacy alive and showing us these instructive games!
Just a mind blowing attack..
Tal was a chess genius and I'm a solid 1930 player. But he makes me look like a beginner.
Tal was unreal. Thanks for the great videos Mato, I subscribed.
God bless you. :-D
Typical Tal ... just a quick hint when playing against late Tal: when he sacrifises a piece, just resign, it will hurt less :)
Mihail Mihailov: On the contrary: If the *late* Tal sacs against you, RUN! (Later, if you survive, try to figure out why you were playing against a skeleton in the first place.)
Mihail, your first and last name misses a “k” because if you did, you can be either Tal or Botvinnik lol
Its amazing and instructive how you can squeeze so much instruction into six minutes. You're a youtube chess gem, Mato. Thank you.
belki 1 yıldır videolarını izliyorum. o kadar içten o kadar güzel anlatıyor ki. satrancı sıkıcı bulabilen insanlar bile zevkle dinleyebilir Mato'yu. ayrıca ingilizceyi biz türkler gibi vurgulayarak konuştuğu için anlamakta hiç zorluk çekmiyorum. :)

Hvala Ljepo na koplimentu.
Zivio Hajduk! Nadam se da dobro igra.
Pozdrav iz Adelaida
Thank you, short and sweet. Most people who review chess games get caught up in their own ideas and talk too much, you kept it to the point. thanks
Loving these Tal games. Thanks for the uploads Mato!
Tals deep vision is just purely insane. And his pure aggression really is so beautiful to watch :)
Oh yes, terrific attack. And very well explained, as always.
Thanks for the post Mato.
in Turkish ve pronounce (and also write) Makedonya with "k". but you might be right about while speaking English we should pronounce it with "c".
anyway, another great video from a great chess teacher. thank you so much Mato. salutes and greetings from Turkey.
Gospodine Mato, zaista je uzitak gledati Vasa videa..Lijep pozdrav iz Splita!

Happy Holidays Mato and everyone else

Random realisation, the intro is from wikipedia unchanged.
Great videos Mato! Never get tired of watching your videos
My name is Mato...it's like My name is Bond,James Bond..
I like your Channel very much.Short very Clear and precise.
love the way you brought up the right way of spelling this opening :) most people didnt know it!
I am enjoying the series of Tal games very much. Keep them coming!
Good analogy Mato. It is quite clear that Tal is / was your favorite player. No shame there, he was a great one!
Pozdrav od Adelaide
Thank you for your comment
My favorite chess player is Tal..amazing game... Thanks Mato
Greatings from indonesian
i m so impressed by Tal... his games are like art.. like a painting, transpiring to reality move by move....
Your series of Tal are great ! Thank you for uploading
I pronounced Macedonia the way Slav Macedonians pronounce it.
And pronounced Pirc the way man (Pirc) himself pronounced it.
And thank you for a compliment
Thank you for your very kind compliment

Tal has a way of making grandmasters look like chess toddlers.... damn...
what a brilliant TAL 👍👍👍 thankyou mr. mato.. idol !!! 😬✌️
Looked at this for about 5 mins and didnt pick up the rook exchange. Even after the exchange I was struggling to see how Black couldnt trade their way out of the situation! Brilliant Chess love it!
Mikhail Tal is my favorite chess player... please keep up the Tal uploads!
I'm loving these Tal videos. Even the Pirc defense is not enough to draw against Tal :D
A work of high art & elevating to the mind.
Well I certainly have changed my mind, Fisher used to be my favorite but after watching a few games of Tal...he is the MAN!
what do I need to be a very good tactical player, beside to forecast several moves?
Tal games are all full of surprises.What a mind! I love all his games.When is going to be born another Tal?
30. November 1990
+Jose Salazar I was already born.
+Jose Salazar there was another player he name was Rashid from Russia in the forties.He thought Tal how to play aggresively .that guy Rashid won the soviet championship 5 times
Danil Dubov is trying to play like Misha
I am beginning to fall in love with Tal's chess play!
"and now we have reached..CRITICAL position!" xD just gotta love mato when he says that. xD
I recommend a book: “From Chess Novice to Advanced Player in 7 Days”
This is a book worth owning.
With the book you will get a password to online training site.
You will be inspired and your chess will improve.
You will beat people in chess you couldn’t beat before.
wow
another great game posted by Mato. Thank you soo much for all your videos =D
And...i found the "killa" move!!! \o/
In alot of the Tal games I've seen, Tal is always capturing knights and bishops with his rook in exchange for a better position. He apparently relies on his rooks to take out pesky minor pieces so his plans will work out more smoothly. Just a thought. :P
I feel good when I spot it too
most great chess videos on youtube start with "Hi. This is Mato. In this video, i will show you a very instructive chess game..."
Fantastic game. I wonder how much of that combination Tal saw in advance.
3:16 What if black night move to c5, double attacking queen & bishop?
Tal is a greatest attacker of all time and knows the art of gambit ....gr8 fam of him
I like your presentation because it's no nonsense.
After watching like half a dozen Tal games from commentary from thechessnetwork and Mato I don't know why anyone would LET Tal have his F3 knight, two moves from that juicy F7 pawn he loves so much
Thank you
Tal and his brilliant mind.
I had a book about 30 years ago called "combination chess" . I'm sure some of the games you've documented are in the book but I can no longer find it.
"check mate, or very similar" xD briliant
Thank you. It will be fixed
You can watch it now. Problem is fixed
Good observation
Maybe we may.
Really? They pronounce it with a hard "c"? Well I learned something today. I already knew Pirc was pronounced "peertz". I am a little OCD about words, but I am a lot entertained by your videos. Keep them coming please. Thank you.
Pirc did not blunder but Timman blundered for not exchanging his
Bishope against white's Night in f3 , the proverb says :" It's the singer
not the song "!
Thanks Mato for your excellent choice and comment !
Now that's some nice commentary. And a good game.
On move 16 after white plays Qh4, why black did not play Nxe5? if Bf4 then Nxe3 ch if Ng5 then Ne6
You need to contact Wikipedia to insure that they give correct information to a general public.
Tal sir please come again...we all love you so much... miss you don...
Simplicity in perfection.
You are a beatiful teacher.
Tal calculated all moves over Nxc7 very long calculation before the exchanged sacrifice.
3:43 Genius move
Pozdrav od Skopje! :D
i like tal's offensive style a lot, he is one of the players with most fantasy, but how was his defensive play? was he as good when playing black or when he had to defend?
Not just good, mr Mato, very, very good.👏
gracias senorita
Starting to love Tal's playing style.
This really begs the question as to whether Tal ever played black. :P
Also, Mato, as a request, in the future, is it possible to upload more games of black winning too?
Regards from India. >:)
Good Tal attack. Love your channel
Originaly written Vasja Pirc -to read like Pirts.
He was a Slovenian grandmaster.
Vasja Pirc was Slowenien grandmaster (1907-1980)!!!
Nice attack, Tal loves exchange sacrifices !
nope,tal loves to play THE move that no one would expect not even fischer can
PissedFechtmeister if you were telling the truth,why aren't you be known ?
there is no truth to prove you are right
In my version of the 'KIlla move' I was thinking first to capture bishop on g7. Black wouldn't have many options after that. If black pushes pawn to g5 , Nf3 would capture it (sounds like a Tal sacrifice) and black would be in big troubles. Not to mention, if black king captures bishop on g7..then rook takes Ne5. What do you think Mato?. Great video!!..thank you.
Mato, did tal ever work on an opening line idea so much we could call it tal's opening/line? or come up with any replicable traps?
such as the fischer trap as an example of fischer doing so
Mato, Are there any good chess literature to buy? For instance any good books that you would recommend?
Love your videos, I wish I could meet tal
I just loooovee how tal plays!
hello Mato! Thanks
its would help bring more light to the details of the game by listing the time controls. just a suggestion
Great videos Mato.
i love all your videos. still havent found one that i didnt like...
Mato, can u please make a playlist just for Tal games
his tactics worth this
keep the good work
GL
Tal pulled a bunny out of a hat with this sacrifice. His nickname the Magician is very appropriate
Zukertort Opening: Kingside Fianchetto (A04)
Sure, one day
mato, I know chess rules and how to play chess, but I don't know names of the openings and defenses :)
I don't understand here why you say this is pirc defense and I see king's indian defense. Can someone explain me?
The c-pawn. KID normally features c4 at some point. Generally pirc only has d4/e4, with attacking ideas on the kingside.
Tal no era un mago, sino la mismísima magia.
when i hear "winning move" in Tal's videos, I automatically think "sacrifice some stuff"
I found the exchange sacrifice, don't know if I would over the board without the prompt: Find the killa move.
Mato: thanks for the great videos, but in English, one must say "the" before the noun; e.g. the rook, the knight.
