Mikhail Tal and contemporary chess

Mikhail Tal and contemporary chess

By mishanp on November 13, 2010

Moscow’s Tal Memorial honours Mikhail Tal, the “Magician from Riga”, who blazed a path to win the World Championship half a century ago this year. Recalling those days, and how chess has changed since, has been a theme of Ilya Odessky’s tournament reports.
