Hi everyone, I am back with a new sub-series that is part of the Master Chess Games series. Today I will be featuring the brilliant Mikhail Tal himself, as he plays some nice games. Before we get into it, I want to do a little background on Tal.

Background:

Tal was a Soviet and Latvian chess player. He held the world championship for a year, although I feel like he should've deserved at least a decade. Tal was probably one of the top 3 attacking chess players of all time. 

Analysis:

K, now let's get into it! 

1st Game: Mikhail Tal vs. Hans-Joachim Hecht

Second Game: Mikhail Tal vs. Tigran Petrosian
3rd Game: Mikhail Tal vs. Vasily Smyslov

Thanks for reading!
