Blunders are There to Be Made | Kostić vs Capablanca || Game 2 (1919)

[@justin_5631]

I wasn't sure the king would be safe behind that wall of pawns, but once I saw the nice green color, I was pretty confident.

Green? [shocked] You're exploring new options as this channel grows.

Thank you for showing the pawn endgame at the end for beginners:)

1:59 I was waiting for that b4 move, too bad XD

[@harrysharp3838]

Capablanca up a pawn in the end game is like most players being up a queen.

[@jarmkolu6158]

its like the same, pawn on last rank is queen

[@Entropy825]

Agadmator, thanks for going over the strategy for trading the queen and winning the endgame with the passed pawn. That was very helpful for us beginners. You're a great teacher.

“And Capablanca says ok who needs the bishop pair”

[@turnerthemanc]

I think it was Soltis's book "How to study Chess" where he suggested you dont look at variations at first when studying a chess game. He suggests you pretty much go through it first without big variations to get a feel for the game. Agadmators approach reminds me of this which is why it is very watchable

[@zimmernebula8535]

@@monkum1645 this is famous game widely covered on internet .

[@yuvibitter]

11:59 after Ke8 couldn't have Kositc play h5 immediately? If pawn takes then white recaptures both pawns because of check. If not, white wins the pawn and has a much further advanced past pawn. Isn't Ke8 like a huge blunder? I haven't checked with the engine so maybe I'm missing something?

[@yuvibitter]

Ohhhhhh Capablance has Qd8. Nevermind.

[@yuvibitter]

Agadmator, I'm leaving this comment up because I think Kostic and Capablance saw this line (that's why Kostic played Ka2 I think, and why Capablance reacted and guarded the pawn on the next move, to prepare against h5). It might be nice to mention that, because those seemingly random moves are actually very critical and the threats are very strong

Even Smislov had a most illustrios career than him.

@Oissev Onos yes, I am almost certain that he said Tal's atacking style of play was his favourite, and also that Tal is his favourite player overall. But doesn't mean he thinks Tal is the best player overall.

[@finsfinst4274]

Hi there, #agadmator! I know you are interested in engines playing chess quite very much. And i just had a game on lichess.org vs Stockfish in which poor stockfish got checkmated while having 8 queens on the board. #suggestion Perhaps you'd be interested to see that game? Yep, you read this right: Stockfish had 8 (eight!) queens on the board and nonetheless lost the game. Not a joke. Lemme know if interested! :)

[@finsfinst4274]

@Audi a4/s4 - it was Stockfish level 5, i was relaxing. As for pawns, i took more than one of its pawns. In fact, i took them all. And its starting queen too. How Stockfish still ended up with 8 queens on the board? That's because i was doing Lichess' crazy way of playing chess, appropriatly named "crazyhouse" (you can select this mode when you start a game vs computer there). Which only differs from regular chess rules by addition of this, quote: "Captured pieces can be dropped back on the board instead of moving a piece". You see that when you hover your mouse over "crazyhouse" option. And that, of course, works for both human and Stockfish. So after much preparation, i sacrificed 8 queens to Stockfish one after another, which Stockfish then placed on the board crazyhouse style. Even took care to restore full 8 pawns of my own to 7th rank (i was doing black) before the final attack. The game went quite smooth despite the crazyness. By turn 23 i could mate Stockfish in two, doing nice dual-check checkmate with knight and bishop. But i went on to see if i can do that madness with 8 Stockfish queens on the board still not helping the machine to win. I found only one way to force it, and it lasted 149 turns in total. P.S. That "crazyhouse" is in fact a trimmed version of 2v2 "Shvedki" chess (literally "Sweden chess" in english), which i loved to play with other fellas in the chess school when i was young, which is few decades ago. So it's not Lichess' invention at all. It goes like this: in every of the two 2-man teams, one person plays white and another plays black; and as soon as you take any piece from the guy you are playing against - you hand that piece to your teammate, and he/she can put it on the board instead of any turn he/she would take. No pawns can be added to 1st and last ranks, of course (lichess follows this rule, too), and also can't checkmate directly by adding a piece (this one, lichess doesn't, and so Stockfish happily checkmates by dropping a piece whenever it can do so; but i still respected the old rule and checkmated Stockfish by normal moves). Your partner does the same, and both guys in the other team do the same also. All perfectly symmetrical, even no need to decide which team plays which color, as both teams play both colors. And since your partner plays "opposite" color, - your enemy's pieces are exactly same color as your partner's ones. I.e. everything matches on every board. We had all kinds of crazy stuff going in those, like deep and long end-game on one board while the other is almost full of pieces to the point very little can be moved anywhere, but then bam-bam-bam, that "full" board gets tons of trades, and suddenly that 1st end-game board is not an end-game anymore real soon. With close teams pieces can go from board to board several times before one of the teams finally prevails (since as soon as your team starts to get significant matherial advantage - things go south for the other team, of course). Great fun! :)
