πŸ“• 1...d4!
Here the influence of the d2-rook does not really discourage Black from advancing in the center. He is ready for it! All Black's pieces have been brought into play. Black realizes the breakthrough d5-d4, which increases the activity of his pieces. White's king can be the subject of attack.

β–ͺ️ Mikhail Tal
β–ͺ️ Latvian-Soviet chess grandmaster


♦️ Mikhail Tal was a Soviet Latvian chess Grandmaster and the eighth World Chess Champion.
Widely regarded as a creative genius and one of the best attacking players of all time, Tal played in a daring, combinatorial style.

πŸ”ΈFull name: Mikhail Nekhemievich Tal
πŸ”ΈCountry: Latvia
πŸ”ΈBorn: 9 November 1936 Riga, Latvia
πŸ”ΈDied: 28 June 1992 (aged 55) Moscow, Russia
πŸ”ΈTitle: Grandmaster (1957)
πŸ”ΈWorld Champion: 1960–61
πŸ”ΈPeak rating: 2705 (January 1980)

♦️Mikhail Nekhemievich Tal was born in Riga, Latvia (annexed by the USSR in 1940). At 6, he learned chess from his father, a medical doctor (source: Tal interview in <Chess Life>, May 1967). He won his first Latvian Championship in 1953, and earned the title of Soviet Master the following year. In 1957, he became the youngest-ever Soviet Champion. In 1960, following a string of victories in strong tournaments (including a second consecutive Soviet Championship, the PortoroΕΎ Interzonal and the Candidates in Yugoslavia), he became the youngest World Chess Champion with a match victory over Mikhail Botvinnik. This record was broken by Garry Kasparov in 1985. Suffering from poor health, he lost the rematch the next year. He never qualified for a title match again.
♦️Tal was also a noted chess journalist and author. In his autobiography, The Life and Games of Mikhail Tal, he annotates 100 of his greatest games.
