Maybe Alekhine Was Even A Sharper Tactician Than Mikhail Tal?

In this game the fourth World Chess Champion Alexander Alekhine launches a powerful attack in a clock simul against Icelandic champion Asmundur Asgeirsson. The latter plays terribly and soon just in the opening faces a simple bishop sacrifice on h7! Very quickly the attack flourishes and more sacrifices appear on the board, first a rook offer, then an exchange sacrifice and finally with a queen sacrifice Alekhine checkmates his opponent! Asgeirsson played this game terribly but on the other hand Alekhine demonstrated high tactical skills! In the end of the video as usual you can solve the daily chess puzzle! ___________ Alexander Alekhine vs Asmundur Asgeirsson Clock Simul (1931), Reykjavik ISL, Aug-09 French Defense: Classical Variation.
