Mikhail Tal sacrificed 3 pieces in the opening. French Defense traps are quite limited in options but there are no limits for legendary magician from Riga. Some people would question if this game should be among Mikhail Tal best games as it's not as incredibly complex as others but keep in mind that in Mikhail Tal interview he said that there are two types of sacrifices: correct ones, and mine. Also, this was probably the game played during the exhibition which should be rather relaxing and spectacular in nature. Maybe it's not queen sacrifice game but still, 3 pieces in the early stage of the game? Impressive! Also, keep in mind that French Defense Tarrasch Variation is considered a solid opening and still Tal could introduce one of the best chess opening traps.
