To those of you who read the description: You are an excellent subscriber! :)
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.

[@MappaDoji]

Got interested in who this Bashtirov actually was so I did a quick research. Turns out that "Bashtirov" is most likely just an incorrectly spelled surname of a guy called Boris Nikolayevich Bashkirov, the russian poet whose pseudonym was Boris Verin. He was a good friend of Prokofiev and is mentioned several times in Prokofiev's diaries as a pretty good chess player. He even played a game against Capablanka in a simultaneous match in 1922 which he had drawn. Thanks, Agad, for making me want to increase my vast knowledge :)

[@droceretik]

Thanks for the research. Excellent information and most likely his true identity.

[@Thaumazo83]

Thanks a lot for this interesting piece of information!

[@Nikita-p8o]

Thanks, John Doe I would like to add that Bashtirov does not sound like a valid Russian surname at all. Bashkirov and Bashirov are much more widespread. Even a simple search in Russian social network VK gives 0 Bashtirovs, 4K+ Bashkirovs and 7K+ Bashirovs. Well done! BTW, hello from St. Petersburg!

If it's the "Italian game" wouldn't it be Gioco, not giucu? Gioco piano would translate to "soft game", but I'm fairly ignorant to chess history and games so idk.

[@SomeOne-vf1rs]

Apparently they spell it "Giuoco", which doesn't make sense.

The mate pattern you mentioned is called a Dovetail mate (As seen here on chesstempo: chesstempo.com/tactical-motifs.html). I find it really helpful to know the names of these mate patterns to help the speed of calculations. Also, amazing video once again; Greatly appreciated and enjoyed.

A breath of fresh air...thanks Antonio... I do have a feeling of deja vu... ?

[@pedrobernardes3292]

I must say it Mr. Agadmator, your channel is really special. When two of the most beautiful areas of art ( music and chess) are combined you just know that you are up for some great content!

Capablanca vs. Prokofiev: The real Dance of the Knights?

[@agadmator]

Yup

[@George6r4]

I hope Prokofiev plays the 4 knights game. My favourite peice by him is the Dance of the knights from Romeo and Juliet.

[@asbestosrecuperation]

It's always refreshing to wind down after a long day with a video from the Capablanca's saga. Thanks @agadmator.

Please begin the match against Prokofiev with the Romeo and Juliet Suite. Or have it as a music bed during the game. That would be super cool. 😎

[@ianzallesreiber7035]

I cant wait until tomorrow to see the game played by Prokofjew. I really love classical music and chess :D

[@Petterkovsky]

Great! Capablanca saga again! ❤

[@nrabinov]

This is what separates the Chess Gods from mere mortals: Capa came up with this masterful attack while playing around twenty other games at the same time. They didn't call him the Chess Machine for nothing!

[@francemorake7421]

TRULY AMAZING PLAY

[@panda4247]

you said "great composer Prokofiev", and I was like, "oh, he made chess puzzles? let's see how he will play" and they you said "here is some music by Prokofiev", and I was like... "oh, that kind of composer"

[@MrHari232]

Finally a Capa Video again, saved my day! Hvala!

[@harrysharp3838]

You are an excellent poster of great pictures of chess playing composers!

[@yaswanthkumarpabbisetti9937]

At 9:31, Qh8+ -> Kh7 -> Rf6+ -> gxf6 -> Rh7+ -> Qg7+ is also possible. It's the same idea but different sequence of moves also works.

[@elegomeskin]

A demonstration of how just one imprecise move will lose against a strong player. Prokofiev created a beauty against Capablanca...should be a delight.

[@egregiousarts6080]

Love the saga, brother! Love, from New York!

[@bakhtiyorallaberganov8062]

in 1921, Prokofiev sent a telegram to the Cuban chess player, Capablanca, consisting of one single word “congratulate”, on the occasion of his victory over Lasker

[@matthewhochban]

Bad day at work so far. Paused my day and tried to find the correct move to continue. For those of you who continued the Capablanca saga, congratulations, you are an excellent content creator. And for those of you who just want to enjoy the show, the correct idea is to start the video.

[@StaleDoritoCrumb]

When I saw Evan's gambit I though for a second, wait Jose doesn't play that very often and I though it was the joke, it was the joke.

Can you show the captured pieces in the interface? It would would make it really very easy for beginners to check the materials on board and the ones captured. Excellent game by Capa Blanca and an excellent video by AGADMATOR as always.

Imagine these negotiations if Lasker was Agadmator's subscriber: Rule No.1 Capablanca cannot use any opening theory.

[@richardsleep2045]

Thanks Agad, you're a class act. But one day you just have to show the Evans Gambit.... don't you.. (or maybe there's a reason nobody plays it. Except me.)

Hopefully you don't travel that far as I'm patient enough to keep waiting for Tarrasch's book, if it's not a big deal to you, then.... you're the master, you'll make the call.
