Mikhail Tal, the Riga Magician, was never one to back down from an aggressive sacrifice. Against Isaak Birbrager, a 17-year-old Tal offered one of his most spectactular sacrifices, surrendering his queen for a knight and some intense pressure!

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.
♟️🔥New pod! 🔥♟️
