I'm outnumbered, cornered, my rook will soon be captured, and have no way to fight back.

I resign. (shake opponent's hand smiley goes here)

This game was a great learning experience for me.

Shake hands.
You played a good game, because you always put your pieces in good squares where they had something to do
But unfortunetaley, you were not careful enough in checking if they could be captured
That was your downfall

Perhaps I should check the board a little more carefully before moving next time. I do tend do play a little too fast.

Well, yes you should be more careful. Look at every piece (you have time) and see wheter or not it is attacked or if some basic tactical trick might happen to it : pin, discovery check or double attack. Another good idea is to study well the last move of the opponent. If I move my queen to c7, what does she threaten ?
I hope it helps

Smash : the wizard of Riga ! I didn't know he acted as a tournament director, though
Jonny : good question, it's probably Ken, can anyone confirm

LOL..oh ya he was man of many talents

Some Tal-ism
* Youngest World Champion until Kasparov.
* Played in 8 Olympiads, 5 Best board Results, 3 times absolute best score.
* 6 times USSR Champion.
* Lost only once to Kasparov & once to Karpov.
* A countback of ELO ratings revealed that Tal's rating during his peak around 1960 would be 7th in the all time rankings with 2700 behind Fischer, Kasparov, Capablanca, Botvinnik, Lasker, & Karpov. In fact in 1979 following his wins in Montreal & Riga he went up to 2710.
* 3rd in 1985 Interzonal thus qualifying for Candidates at 49
* Only 3 men played in both USSR-Rest of the World matches - Tal, Larsen, & Polugaevsky.

Quotes about Tal

* If Tal had really studied Chess in the late fifties and early sixties he would have been impossible to play against - Botvinnik
* How does Tal win? - He develops all his pieces in the centre and then sacrifices them somewhere - Bronstein
* If Tal has an open file it will be mate - an onlooker at a Tal post mortem analysis session.

Tal quotes

* "If you wait for luck to turn up, life becomes very boring."
* "There are two types of sacrifices - sound ones and mine."



>I don't know.Ken or Carolus....we're afraid of you,you big bully
