Mikhail Tal’s 1961 victory over Fridrik Olafsson looks like a simple (though pretty) smashing attack, but in fact, great complexity and beauty lurks in the variations. In his own analysis, Tal showed the best defense for Olafsson as well as some truly genius attacking tries he had prepared.
Lessons:
* Fortune favors the bold.
* In defense, it is imperative to invest time in the critical moments.
* The strongest players are critical and objective regarding their own play.
