@@s3eriousbl9ck26 There are always people in this world who judge sportsmen according to political attitudes. Today Sergey Karjakin is banned from international chess because he is sticking to his homeland. Ridiculous !
notice Yasser didn't answer the question and just told a story of how a great person Tal is. And to answer the question, Yasser did great against Tal scoring 4wins 1 draw no losses.
Keep in mind that it was hard to beat Tal. For all his reputation as a wild swashbuckler, he also has the third longest unbeaten streak of any FIDE era player (behind Ding Liren and Magnus Carlsen)
Mikhail Tal was a sound player if you think about it. His sacrifices weren’t that crazy because he always had a perpetual draw in his pocket. Yes many of them didn’t lead to mate, but he always had a draw if it failed.

The master is inside the tables and walks fom board to board making moves. Usually the other players are not very strong. So Tal acted like he was at a simultaneous match
