I missed this mate blunder of SOS during WMCCC. Do you think that Tal 2.03 is stronger in tactics? I got the impression (from numerous posts here and elsewhere) that Tal is not a tactical monster. Or was the mate the result of the attacking style of Tal in a position where one could miss the mate during analysis (I mean, are there positions, where it is easier to miss a mate?). Anyway, thanks for your reply! Joachim
