    Tal said that 22. Rae1 was the best move. Fischer wrote it down and pushed the scoresheet towards Tal, who grinned. Fischer then played 22. Qc6+ instead. After the game, Tal asked Fischer why he changed his mind and the American said, "Well, you laughed when I wrote it down!"

    The 1959 Candidates Tournament was hosted by three cities in Yugoslavia. The first 14 rounds were played in Bled, rounds 15-21 in Zagreb, and rounds 22-28 in Belgrade. This event would select the next challenger to world champion Mikhail Botvinnik, who had just recaptured his title in the Botvinnik - Smyslov World Championship Rematch (1958). Mikhail Tal, Svetozar Gligorić, Pal Benko, Tigran Petrosian, Friðrik Ólafsson and Bobby Fischer qualified from the Portoroz Interzonal (1958). Vasily Smyslov and Paul Keres were seeded directly into the candidates tournament on the strength of their 1-2 finish in the previous Amsterdam Candidates (1956). Harry Golombek was arbiter, and the seconds were Bent Larsen (Fischer), Yuri Averbakh, joined later by Alexander Koblents (Tal), Vladas Mikenas (Keres), Isaac Boleslavsky (Petrosian), Igor Bondarevsky (Smyslov) Aleksandar Matanovic (Gligorić), Klaus Viktor Darga and Ingi Randver Johannsson (Ólafsson), and Rudolf Maric (Benko)

    There is more to the story than Tal giving a simple smile. :)
    From his autobiography: (Tal fans REALLY need to get this book!)
    "...Fischer first wrote down QR-K1, without a doubt the strongest move, and he wrote it not in English but in European, almost Russian! And he not very deftly pushed the scoresheet towards me. "He's asking for an endorsement!" I thought to myself. But how to react? To frown was impossible, and if I smiled he would suspect ... 'trickery.' So I did the natural thing, I got up and strolled around the stage. I met Petrosian, made some joke to him, and he replied. But the 15 year old Fischer, who was essentially still only a large child, sat with a confused expression on his face, looking first at his second, and then at me. He then wrote down another move, Q-QB6+..." (And went on to lose.) "After the game, when I asked Fischer why he hadn't played QR-K1, he replied, "Well, you laughed when I wrote it down." "

    Its three hours since I saw this video, and I've been thinking about the smile and the Fischer's response. Given Tal, he smiled because he was happy for Fischer that Fischer found the right move. Given Fischer, he distrusted that the smile could have meant happiness for Fischer, and instead understood it as Tal laughing at him, and then played the wrong move. Tal smiled a lot, had a very easy and frequent smile. There are videos of him playing with Fischer and his glee at witnessing the game is abundant. It's actually sad; Fischer would have been lucky to have some of Tal's innocent emotionality.

    Thanks for another great video!
    Regarding the “smile” on move 22, I thought you might enjoy this quote, taken from Kasparov’s My Great Predecessors book: ‘A famous position: it was here that a widely known psychological duel took place between us,’ related Tal. ‘Fischer first wrote down the move 22 Rae1, without doubt the strongest, and wrote it not in his usual English notation, but in European, almost Russian! And not very deftly he pushed the score-sheet towards me. “He’s testing me out,” I thought: would I frown or display my nervousness? I could force myself to smile, but Bobby was no longer a child, he would understand. What then was I to do? I very much wanted him to change his decision. And so I calmly stood up and began walking alongside the board. I shared a joke with someone, glanced for appearance’s sake at the demonstration board and with a contented expression returned to my position. I am sure that all this time Fischer was looking at me, and not calculating variations. He cast one more glance at me (I endured it), crossed out the move on his score-sheet and gave the queen check!’
    When after the game I asked Fischer why he didn’t play 22 Rae1, he replied, ‘Well you laughed when I wrote it down!’

    I just wanna show my appreciation for this channel, i stumbled across it about a month ago when i started getting back into chess and now i watch these videos everyday, i really enjoy the content and seeing the games and the commentary is making me a better young chess player everyday, love the work you're doing.

    The fireworks still reverberate. Wow! What a game! When these two attackers got together, it was a slugfest from opening to endgame. I have seen this game in print but your analysis makes it come alive. Keep up the good work.

    This was a fantastic game. It is interesting watching these two greats play this game; it really makes one realize one's own shortcomings in strategy. I am OK at Chess, better than average perhaps (whatever that means), but both of these guys are unbelievably great. Thanks for posting this.

    Hey Agadmator! Love your content and enjoy every video you make! Just in need of advice. I’ve been playing chess competitively for about 6 months in my school chess club. I’ve twice encountered a feeling where I don’t play as well as I usually do. I can play really strong one day, the next I play like I don’t know anything. Any suggestions to help with this issue?

    Hey! :) If you're gonna do a few games from the 1960 championship, please consider game eleven. Tal played the Reti as white and slowly bulldozered Botvinnik off the board, ending the game with a nice kingside assult. As I understand it, this game utterly crushed Botvinnik's spirit. Botvinnik could cope with loosing games like 1 and 6, two "typical Tal" madhouse efforts, and he had even rebounded to win games 8 and 9, bringing the score to a 2:3 and himself back in the match. With this momentum, Botvinnik was keen to overhaul the challenger. But to be so comprehensively positionally outplayed in the eleventh encounter left the champion visibly shaking and stunned immediately after the game. Botvinnik didn't win another game, despite having a few very favorable positions courtesy of Tal getting a little too adventurous from time to time.

    You bring back memories about writing the move down b4 you move it. I never did it because it always stressed me out that my opponent could see it and gave him a few extra seconds thinking time each move, which would add up. And back then we used descriptive notation rather than algebraic (1. P-K4 ... instead of 1. e4 ...). Yep, I'm that old. /sigh

  • @the470m

    Beside the chess stories, witch I really enjoy, this channel helped me improve my game. I'm not really responsive to chess lessons. I find those really boring. Instead I listened to these stories and what was most important to me, was that mr agadmador explained the approach one need to have while playing chess. The things you need to take in consideration. His perspective on chess was the real teacher, cause I understand now where I have to look to improve and how to more effectively tackle a chess game. Thanks!

  • @dhanarputra555

    Tal is the only USSR Chess master at those time whom got Fischer admission and respects through the heart.
    Simple, because Tal is reckless and fearless of any challenge. At the same time, their games give Fischer so much advantage to learn.

  • @High_Priest_Jonko

    Bobby wasn’t talking about Tal when he told Dimitrije “If I don’t win against Smyslov tomorrow, I’ll cut off my ear” (Bjelica, Chess Meets of the Century, p. 118). But he did write “If Tal doesn’t behave himself, I am going to smash out all of his front teeth” in a letter to his mom (Marshall Chess Foundation Archive).
    Also, here’s a rare clip of Tal staring down Bobbby Fischer: ua-cam.com/video/QWs4IT-efi0/v-deo.html

    • @agadmator
      @agadmator  6 років тому +4

      True. But for this game, he claims he had a win in this game, which wasn't the case. Books written in pre computer era are indeed very valuable, but can contain errors in calculations. No author was immune to this :)

    • @TioRubens1

    I like that you feature a lot of awesome games, but aren't there awesome draws? Like someone pulled a few suboptimal moves in the midgame and pulled out a draw? The majority of chess games at the highest level are drawn but people get a false impresion about chess if you only show wins.(and man, I love awesome checkmates)
