Jan-08-19 Tal vs I Sokolov, 1992
| |
| shalgo: Sokolov was to play Black against Tal in the second half of the tournament. While he was preparing, two hours before the game, the phone rang; it was Tal, who after apologising for phoning late said that he wasn’t feeling very well, and asked him, “Are you feeling ambitious?” ... |

Jan-03-18 Karpov vs Tal, 1977
| |
| shalgo: To amplify on the mutual blunders at moves 42/43: the point is that after 42...a5 43.Rg4+ the d6-square is available to White's queen. (That is why 42...Qe6 was necessary.) After 43.Rg4+ Kf8 44.Qd6#.
Therefore Black has to play 43...Kh8. Here 44.Qd6 still works, because Black can't ... |
