The St Petersburg Tournament of 1914 featured the joint winners of the 1914 All Russian Championship and players who had won at least one major tournament. There were the veterans Blackburne and Gunsberg, established masters such as Tarrasch, Bernstein, Janowski, Nimzowitsch, Alekhine and Marshall as well as the World Champion Lasker and his two most prominent rivals, Rubinstein and Capablanca.
The tournament was divided into two sections. The first stage from the 21st April to the 6th of May was an all-play-all event with the first five finishers proceeding into the second stage which ran from the 10th to the 22nd of May. This second stage was a double round all-play-all with the scores from the preliminaries being carried over to the final.
Prizes amounted to 1200, 800, 500, 300 and 200 Rubles. Each non-prizewinner received 20 Rubles for every game won and 10 Rubles for every drawn game.
A brilliancy prize was being considered for Nimzowitsch vs Tarrasch, 1914 after the 5th round's finish, but more than 2 rounds later, it was awarded a 2nd brilliancy prize as the runner-up to the Capablanca vs O Bernstein, 1914 coup.
The main source for this collection was the St. Petersburg 1914 International Chess Tournament book by Dr Siegbert Tarrasch. ISBN 0-939433-17-6.

"...days of summer!"
Every time I see Alekhine and Capa in one title I get goosebumps from what a clash follows
Man, I do so love letting my family know about these games. They can't wait for the next one!!!
I didn't tell any friends or family that information yet! I am not an excellent subscriber... :(
I tell my girlfriend and she think i'm becoming a crazy nerd chess vast knoledge freak.
@@searchalexander5991 Very nice comment, very nice idea, very nice photo, very nice move, very nice game.
@@searchalexander5991 Very nice comment, very nice idea, very nice photo, very nice move, very nice game.
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
@@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.
@@historicalgames9107I think he chose to have a better lifestyle than Fischer😅
Vast knowledge 0:00

@Trică Nicolae Ioachim By any possible reading of the words you wrote not requiring extra assumptions... they already are.
Also, skiperinos are hilarious AND agadmator actually plays Hearthstone, so the fact a picture of Mamedyarov that looked uncannily like Kripp started all this is doubly hilarious.
So, perhaps YOU should so something (else) with YOUR life.

"WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA HERE!"
@Trică Nicolae Ioachim Hey, I'm just curious... is that Agadmator posting, or just his picture?
Alekhines RQR battery
I think some of the most enjoyable games to watch are those in which two future champions are playing, long before they’re champions.
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
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 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.
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
Previously: Capablanca has no chess opening knowledge
Now: Capablanca es not feeling well
What holds the future of our hero? Don't miss the next episode!
Alekhine has a truly remarkable fashion sense.
Add to that, he is a handsome bloke as well.
I just want to say I really enjoy your videos, I haven't played in 15+ years (I'm 33), but I still enjoy these videos. You are the only channel I watch on RUclips bc U keep it interesting, NOT boring at all, with how u explain & show us different tactics/moves to see the results. U also show me mistakes players made. I believe that u put alot of work into each video, & I appreciate that. Thanks again! Sorry 4 long post, and sorry for bad grammar-tried to make post short but didn't succeed haha
You've taught me to calculate far more moves and made me a much better player. Thank you

*The need for vast knowledge intensifies*
Can you imagine if Capa hadn't been so lazy-he might have become a world famous chess champion! :P
he was a world chess champion
@@Alex-ow8ul Whoosh!
Its a case of taking the scenic route due to laziness..
He was World chess champion from 1921 to 1927. He was one of the greatest chess players of all times.
@@johnpender358 It was an ironic statement 🙄
Such a lazy cuban indeed! Instead of playing a long checkmate he just made it more quickly :D
No?
Ah, the beautiful “old” games... immortal actually.... thanks Antonio...
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.
"As you already mentioned to your friends and family" hahah dude your sense of humour is fucking excellent.
I enjoyed the show!
"As you told your friends and family" at the beginning of the video. Hahaha. Brilliant.
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.
In the spirit of Mikhail...
Botvinnik.

*throws away beer and cigarettes* why?? WHY?!!
This is what i have been awaiting for a damn year and a half. Thanks.

Loool scholars mate is my only opening prep :D

The worst is the smothered mate 😂

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.
U have made me chess maniac
now we know the inspiration behind the alekhin's gun :P
Excellent work as ever, best to Medo and Mr cool emoji pillow.
Excellent game and presentation of the possibilities!
Can you make some more on Korchnoi? I love his complications and maneuvering, sacrificing and then regaining material later with interest, scary positional player !
Next saga: Bobby Fischer. I love this videos about Capablanca. Good job!
Wonder what Alpha Zero would think about this game??
Psssh. Amateurs
whenever i get an Agadmator notification i drop everything im doing so i can obtain vast knowledge
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.
@@elegomeskin ye saw later on so I didnt want to bother anyone with that, but thanks anyway!
Great game. I will see you soon
🔥🔥🔥
What nice treat to wake up to before work ;)
I am coming from way back learning the Basics❤
I miss the old time of your channel......so much change..time is flying..
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.
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
Can u do a collab with Chessnetwork please?
It would be nice to see the standings after every round
8:34 I am not a great chess player, but even myself would have played g3...
Beautiful game by Capablanca, although he might have missed the strongest move one or two times,
what microphone you use? please tell me
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'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).
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.
😁
Really stressing endgame, but Capa kept his cool.
Thank you for providing me excellent chess knowledge. Hopefully I return you something for this! 👍😃
At the end instead of Rc1, Kc1 might prolong the game for longer, am I correct?
The lazy cuban sounds like an interesting mixed drink
Cuba Libre and Valium?
Thanks!
9:52
What about knight h3+?
He can always fall back on his other career as Weird Alekhine, doing parodies of popular ragtime tunes.
the only habbit of capablanca i got is being lazy in calculating lines
The thrill.. Its just back
I preferred back when you used the arrowkeys to move the pieces. It was just so much more immersive - can you please go back?
#suggestion Your thoughts on Topalov accusing Kramnik of cheating during their Championship Match.
".as you mentioned to your friends & families" 😂
#suggestion do a deep blue X Kasparov series
I'm starting to feel sorry for old Alekhine: three lossed to the Cuban in a couple of videos.
can anyone tell me what he fixes?
"......and it's all over"
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
Its very long still we haven't seen game from vasly ivanchuk.
Please take this in consideration 😊
#suggestion
I saw it. I am an excellent checker of Kings.
Alekhine crushed Capablanca in several games.Alekhine was a strategic calculator.
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.
hey @agadmator, would you show this game with Alekhine and Nimzowitsch? Quite a fantastic display of Alekhine's gun! #suggestion #suggestions

Why I lose when I play like Cabablanca 😄😄
Please mention Casablancas health during this tournament was he feeling well?
Capablanca
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
Lazy = smart. Don't expend too much energy, save some for the later games when the other player becomes tired :)
I was suppose to mention this to my friends and family?
When knight on f5 was threatening bishop on e7, is bishop to f8 a bad move?
Awesome channel bro!!! I 💕 ♟️👑
At 5:10 it's actually mate in two
You can go Nd7 but you still lose material
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...)
Good game
What if after Rae1 Rxf4 Qxa8 check and then after Nxa8 Bd4??
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"
Can you please tell me what the score is between these two?
as of now 3-0 to Capablanca I believe
well he lost the wcc i meant all time
9-7 in favour of capablanca. Draws not being counted.
Capablanca: meh imma win another way.
What a way to play chess, dear me...
Capa Blanca is to cool that he even looks cooler when his lazy. 🎷
Nice
the best chess games are the ones untainted with boring computer calculations
I'm an excellent subscriber but a lousy player,.
11:32 If the white queen had taken the black rook , it was already checkmate
So tough to be first to like and comment on you videos.. :(
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.
No epic music this time? 😢
When I saw "Lazy Cuban" I thought it was a loss.
Why did white play Kf1, losing a tempo?
11 th! Love from India!

You should check out this app called ReallyBadChess. They set up the chess board with any mismatch of pieces. For example one game I had 7 knights and my opponent had 7 bishops and it leads to really interesting games.
