Im 4 years later but i'd like to say im learning a lot with this saga. Capablanca's chess is "clean" and understandable, and the stop the video moments are really good to train calculation
I have been a subscriber of your channel for quite a while but, only now have I started watching all of your videos and I must tell that you are doing a great job. You have a great sense of humor as well. Thanks for showing this game. Capablanca is so chill.
@@santiagorodriguez2940 The idea is the same. The queen behind the rooks is more ideal but you don't always have that. The queen between rooks is just as good and worked perfectly. This game proves Capa is far more powerful than Alekhine. Also, he is the laziest chess player of all times. If he studied like Bobby Fischer he would probably be #1 in history.

The more Agadmator increases my "vast knowledge" of José Raúl Capablanca, the more I start thinking that he really was the greatest of all time, the GOAT.
You should do an occasional game where you tell the story and show a game from the naming of an opening. Like the French Defense or the Roy Lopez. #suggestion
The greatest of this genre was in the Morphy saga, where the presentation unveiled Morphy playing the Morphy Defense against Andersson playing the Andersson variation..

I just found your channel yesterday and I really enjoy your content and the insight you give for the different outcomes that a move may lead to. Also I like the background information you give for each game and tournament. You earned a subscriber mate.
Capablanca like now Leela is learning . There will be one day when he will remain undefated for 8 years " belived or not" and this of course will be his downfall .He thought he didn't need any special preparation to defeat Alekhine in the Championship match. He was wrong. Even after the lost to AA he was considered the best chess player in the world for a few more years. I assume that a tropical bird like Capa would have had a lots of problem with the cold weather in Europe and caught the flu often.
I checked out the position in 9:30 with stockfish and it showed very different lines (but starting with Nxg2 or Qc4) than yours and I guess that's why I love this channel. U dont just show engine lines but u think through positions by yourself.
On your deleted comment, if Qg4, then Pf3...! R defends everything and P attacks Q. This breaks Ben Finegold's rule ( never play F3 ) but wtf , one has to in this position.
Dd i miss something at 9:15? I didn't find that elusive move Agad shows. Its a rather long sequence to mate, but what about simply playing ..Qg4 threatening mate on g2? White can't capture the knight with the bishop Bxf4 because this opens the e-file allowing Re1#, and the only other defense i found is g3 which also doesn't work due to Qh3+ followed by Qg2#. after some more searching i noticed white can play Qb7 protecting the g2 square, so my idea doens't work. Obviously Agad, Capa and Alekhine all know a wee bit more about chess than i do. 😁
Can you make some more on Korchnoi? I love his complications and maneuvering, sacrificing and then regaining material later with interest, scary positional player !
I assume you already covered Lasker's win over Capablanca in this same tournament? That game demonstrated that a knight on e6 or d6 protected by a pawn is a monster. Many years ago I played against this guy (who is a math teacher, much stronger than me at chess) and when I planted a knight there (this was a blitz game, 5 minutes per side) he did not think twice: sacrificed the exchange.
I enjoy the study and scholarship and academia which improve one's game, but the beauty of the game speaks for itself through intuitive play, not textbook
Even I found this line. It's the best one - forces mate irrespective of what White does. Good thing I checked all the comments. Otherwise I'd have repeated what you wrote, Dave !!!!
He respected strong opponents like AA and Lasker reason he rarely played strong forcing moves that resulted in embarrasing checkmates for them. Not so with those lesser mortals who purportedly believed being better or disrespected his status.
Capablanca had his way with the arrogant theorists. He basically said put your money where your mouth is and wrecked Nimzovich and quieted the cronies, but eventually they prevailed. Thats why he was called, still is, "the natural"
Turns out Fischer and Tal and Capablanca were the game and they d probably all agree that it was ruined by the theorists who felt they were elevating the game, but they killed it.

Capablanca used Alekhine's gun to defeat him. Thats amazing.
Technically Alekhine's gun places the queen behind both rooks. It is different. And stronger

I think some of the most enjoyable games to watch are those in which two future champions are playing, long before they’re champions.
Alekhine has a truly remarkable fashion sense.

The more Agadmator increases my "vast knowledge" of José Raúl Capablanca, the more I start thinking that he really was the greatest of all time, the GOAT.
Tulio he is one of them. He is in the class of Murphy , Steinitz (?), Lasker , A Alekhine, Botvinnik, Tal, Fisher, Karpov, Kasparov and Magnus.
This is what i have been awaiting for a damn year and a half. Thanks.
You should do an occasional game where you tell the story and show a game from the naming of an opening. Like the French Defense or the Roy Lopez. #suggestion
The Ruy Lopez is ancient, you'll never find the first game of that. All the ones named after 'modern' masters should be possible though.
I do love the "ROY" lopez

what microphone you use? please tell me
I enjoy the study and scholarship and academia which improve one's game, but the beauty of the game speaks for itself through intuitive play, not textbook
Beautiful game by Capablanca, although he might have missed the strongest move one or two times,
At 9:39 - there is a better move. Q - g4 forces P-g3, then Q-h3 ch only move is K-g1, then Q-g2 is mate
Even I found this line. It's the best one - forces mate irrespective of what White does. Good thing I checked all the comments. Otherwise I'd have repeated what you wrote, Dave !!!!
Not Pg3...blunder that loses. The winning move is Pf3...! R protects everything and P attacks Q.
@@elegomeskin Youre right - I missed that
Really stressing endgame, but Capa kept his cool.
Thanks!
At the end instead of Rc1, Kc1 might prolong the game for longer, am I correct?
Can u do a collab with Chessnetwork please?
why not queen takes c3 at 14:26? isn't that winning?
If queen would go there white would take the rook with a check, and would also dodge the bullet by moving the rook
It would be nice to see the standings after every round
Thank you for providing me excellent chess knowledge. Hopefully I return you something for this! 👍😃
So, does Capablanca learned some opening theory by now?
Of course not
And he won’t…he’ll be even more bored never losing after that.
The lazy cuban sounds like an interesting mixed drink
Cuba Libre and Valium?
He respected strong opponents like AA and Lasker reason he rarely played strong forcing moves that resulted in embarrasing checkmates for them. Not so with those lesser mortals who purportedly believed being better or disrespected his status.
He can always fall back on his other career as Weird Alekhine, doing parodies of popular ragtime tunes.
Alekhine crushed Capablanca in several games.Alekhine was a strategic calculator.
I'm not sure if I ever heard the correct pronunciation of Alekhine before Antonio said it in one of his videos (a long time ago).
I preferred back when you used the arrowkeys to move the pieces. It was just so much more immersive - can you please go back?
At 5:10 it's actually mate in two
You can go Nd7 but you still lose material
I saw it. I am an excellent checker of Kings.
Please mention Casablancas health during this tournament was he feeling well?
Capablanca

Lazy = smart. Don't expend too much energy, save some for the later games when the other player becomes tired :)
Can you please tell me what the score is between these two?
as of now 3-0 to Capablanca I believe

Turns out Fischer and Tal and Capablanca were the game and they d probably all agree that it was ruined by the theorists who felt they were elevating the game, but they killed it.
instead of bishop G4 wouldnt it be better to just take the rook on A8 with the queen with check?
(if the pawn was captured...)
No epic music this time? 😢
although he couldn't win, he could have drawn a stalemate. Never give up... humans make mistakes.
