Jan-10-06 | | woodenbishop: If ever there was a true chess genius, a master who saw what no other saw, a magician whose tricks take our breath away, it was none other than the late, GREAT, Mikhail Tal. |
|
Jul-11-06 | | kevindeane: brilliantly planned attack. and I thought sicilian was able to counter any onslaught. Tal was bananas!! |
|
Jul-11-06 | | RookFile: Fortunte favors the bold, dynamic, attacking player. |

Does anyone know what <blitz tournament> this was? Thanks. |

Sep-02-08 | | pom nasayao: the threat after 25. Q h3 was 26. Bf4+ Kg8 27. Qg3+ Kf8 28. Nf6+ |

 | | thegoodanarchist: Dzindzi is a tough, talented GM and specializes in blitz. here he looks as a child compared to the former champ. |
|
Jun-27-15 | | dchrist: Black needs to get his queen active and begin a counterattack. 22... a6? (better is ..Qb6)
25... Ng8?? (..Qb6 imperative) |

Dzindzichashvili was a bold, dynamic, attacking player as well. But players' fortunes are often not so favorable when they run into the brilliance of a magician. Simply adding to the choir: really amazing stuff by Tal, especially for blitz. As I've learned to expect. |

That’s incredible. I’d give up a kidney to be able to say the same. Do you have any interesting stories with them that you remember and would be willing to share? And more importantly how did your games against them go? Do you still have the score sheets? |

 | | OhioChessFan: 24...Kxh6 has to be better. Might as well resign as play Kh7. |
