Dec-29-04  Poisonpawns: These games by Tal are awsome, I dont even know what to say but I kibitz just to let somebody see this,I cant believe some of his games, there is truly know one like him.
May-06-21  RickAlexander: I can imagine Rytov's distress with taking the pawn on c4 on move 11. When Tal offers you a pawn, the last thing you want to do is take it...

  perfidious: Botvinnik had a different view on the matter, once writing, according to Terence Reese and Albert Dormer:

<If Tal offers you a pawn, take it. If Petrosian offers you a pawn, decline it. If I offer you a pawn, think it over.>
