It was a general opinion that Tigran Petrosian was able to see was able to see tactics that nobody could. He was proud of a game with a 23 move combination(!). And Tal commented in his Book "Life and Games" that Petrosian decided once to Take Risk at one 1959 USSR championship and Won much more games and the Tournament. If Petrosian had put more risk in his games he could have won much more games. But he saw too much and believing that the opponent was not going to "miss" the better move then he did prophylactic moves to avoid the opponents plans. Rafael
