Mikhail Tals 22-move brilliancy

Featured is the chess game between Boris Spassky and Mikhail Tal from the 1979 Montreal Tournament. This 22-move game by Tal was awarded the brilliancy prize. The opening is a Queen’s Indian Defense, Spassky System where Tal obtains the hanging pawns. This is a model game for the hanging pawns structure. This game does an excellent job promoting the hanging pawns by highlighting the thematic central pawn thrust, the weaknesses on f4/f5, and the thematic bishop sacrifice on the kingside. I’m a self-taught National Master in chess out of Pennsylvania, USA who was introduced to the game by my father in 1988 at the age of 8. The purpose of this channel is to share my knowledge of chess to help others improve their game. I enjoy continuing to improve my understanding of this great game, albeit slowly.
