Maybe Macer75 has won more consecutive games.

I am not certain that Macer75 is in the lead though since Tal was a great player too.

I'm pretty sure Tal never had a 179-game winning streak.

Tal may not have ever owned a radio shack 1650.

I could get a 180 game winning streak against my 6 year old sister. If that counts.

I don't know what I would call 180 wins in a row but I know that 179 is amacing.

You could... but have you? It's the same idea as with modernist art: a lot of people say, "well, I could make that too" - but you didn't, and the artist did.
