As promised, a very nice game between one of the, if not the, best chess players of all time, 'Bobby' Fischer and Mikhail Tal, still renowned for his dangerous tactics.  This game shows something about Tal that is often overlooked.  Sometimes building up pressure and mobilizing pieces is the key to winning.  The beautiful sacrifices are just the icing on the cake.

Without further ado, lets get into the (fully annotated!) game.
