Capa is the exceptionalism of simplicity. Like in real life, sometimes to make things simple and yet effective, is the hardest.

Definitely in the top 5 of the GOAT club, together with Fischer, Karpov, Kasparov and Magnus.

I love your passion not only for chess but also for the maestro JR Capablanca as he is also my most favourite of a list of favourite chess geniuses of all time. You explain/analyze the matches very well and in an enjoyable manner.

A lot of people call it the Volga gambit in Europe, and distinguish from the Benko gambit by a move or two. There was one guy who played it in the 1930s. So Benko is far from its originator.

Great game and great video, appreciate you going over masterpieces from the past!! fun fact Nimzowitsch all though a great player never manage to defeat Capa, in 1929 Carlsbad where he took first place he almost did but Capa managed to draw, i think Capa never forgot the tasteless comment Nimziwitsch made in 1911 San Sebastian i think . Thank you!

some lessons on how to win a won game here. Capablanca shuts down all of black's counterplay and then advances his central pawns making everything clear.

Great game by Capablanca. In my young years I loved Nimzowitsch because of his book “Mein System”, very insightful and also quite funny at times: he was ridiculed by quite a few, like Tarrasch, but most of them were weak, he called them “mittelmäßig begabte Kritiker” (moderately gifted critics). But Capablanca was from a different planet, he owned Nimzowitsch.

@ytmndman 9 ай бұрын

Tarrasch was not a weak player by any means. He was one of the top players in the world in his time, and easily grandmaster level.

@@ytmndman Read well what I wrote: “… ridiculed by quite a few, like Tarrasch, but most of them were weak…”. I didn’t say Tarrasch was weak, I explicitly put him apart, separated by “but most of them”.

There is the Capablanca chess variant, or Fisher Random Chess, but Scramble is better than both of them. You can already play Scramble against Stockfish.

At 6:23 "...he looses on the spot" yes the bishop check(s) but you then say check by the black queen, but in fact the queen on d5 is not a check. Did I miss something?

9:21 .. Is this a BEST move to take knight with the Queen (QxC3)...❓? .... PLEASE REPLY If pawn takes the queen then it will leads to Back rank mate.....

@chessdawg 9 ай бұрын

If Qc3 then white would take the rook at b4 with his rook at d4 instead of capturing the queen with the pawn, this would restore material equality and blacks advantage would disappear.

@henockpeterhp 9 ай бұрын

@@chessdawg... Thank you for the reply sir..❤️ I have another doubt what if black captures the white rook (Rb4)... White can't capture the queen again... And also black is threatening the B2 pawn

@Rspknlikeab0ssxd 9 ай бұрын

@@henockpeterhp Capablanca is up the exchange in this variation. If Qxc3 Rxb4 Rxb4 Qd8+ and now white is probably better. White can win the c7 pawn, base of the Queen side pawn chain. White can also give its king space with h3. White doesn't care about the Queen remaining on c3, once the king has an escape square now she's in danger too. I don't have an engine in front of me rn but surely winning material is better than being down material and probably in a worse positron

(6:51) A4 - why not b3 now - now that White's knight can no longer be pinned (after Rb1) and since (6:54) "he'd love to play a c2-b3-a4 structure"?

@chessdawg 9 ай бұрын

b3 is definitely playable there, but black can play Ra3 keeping the a-pawn from advancing after taking the bishop on d2. However, b3 does look like a decent move and appears better than what was played in the game.

@royprasad 9 ай бұрын

After 23. Qe3 Rb8, why did White play 24. Qg5 (essentially losing a tempo) and not Rd3 as you mentioned? Wasn't that the idea of 23. Qe3, to bring up the Rook to support the N on c3, so White could play b3? It's a little odd that you failed to mention this after pointing it out earlier!

@chessdawg 9 ай бұрын

Yes, I should have addressed that. If white plays Rd3 there, black can play Bd4 pinning the queen to the king and forcing white to give up the exchange. The move Rb4 supports that move also.

@royprasad 9 ай бұрын

@@chessdawg - Thanks. Indeed, 23... Rb4 prevents 24. Rd3, and Black is even threatening 24... Bd4. It's amazing how quickly White's position falls apart from here onwards.
