Hello, excellent subscribers (and Antonio "Agadmator" Radić as well)! I would like to thank Antonio for all the games he has shown.The explanation and the analysis behind those games and covering of the variations that were questionable and interesting to calculate is very nice. I've been watching this channel since it was like under few thousand subscribers till now and I'm still watching it. What makes your channel more interesting and better overall is the fact that people can never really get bored while listening to your voice, especially the prologue with some interesting and amazing stories. You've got that spiritual and positive energy that drags people towards this channel and makes them subscribe to it, support it and stay with it. I've started to study chess seriously and practice it since I was 13 (back when players that were 600 rating could beat me easily) till now when I'm 14 years old and have improved quite a lot. I have even managed to beat players that are 2000+ and currently I'm around 1800. I'm happy that this channel made me so much better and all of that without paying expensive coaches or reading a lot of books. Currently I'm reading some chess books and I'm preparing for my Serbian Cup which will be held in April 2019. I was able to guess like 80% of the moves you requested to find without even pausing the video. Even moves like Bd7 in this video, Re3 in the previous one and all those insane moves. I guess it's not so hard to do so when someone tells you that there's a move that's just striking with it's beauty and awesomeness. It's been a lot of time since you did a stream for your excellent subscribers! You could make a stream with some Lichess arenas, I'm sure many excellent subscribers wouldn't dare to dismiss that! Thank you for your coverage of chess, especially now that you started to cover stories and games about J. R. Capablanca. He's one of my favourite players. He keeps things simple, methodical and logical. Keep raising your channel and hopefully it will reach another historic milestone! Thank you for everything you did and everything you'll do in the future. Whoever is reading this post, have a good day and enjoy your life! Best wishes, Dario P.S: I'm sorry if I made any mistakes during the writing of this post! English is not my native language.
Marshall attacked like a mad man until 11:35 when: "in cold blood Capablanca played Bxd7 and it was in this position when Frank James Marshall resigned the game on move 43" LOVED IT! : )
Ah, c'mon Antonio, don't feed the trolls, it IS usefull to say in each video because not everysingle person that watched (13k by now) has seen the previous videos. Just like the long story you told on the first video from this saga was usefull aswell. There are constructive critics and desconstrutive ones, that is usefull to flame sometimes, or even try to make people laugh, I really don't think that you should change based on the desconstructive. By the way, I'm not a english native speaker so don't mind my spell errors and thanks for the awesome videos!
I think you missed his point, he was essentially trolling them back. See, by announcing not to mention that Capa hasn't studied opening theory he DID mention it ;)
“I had a toothache during the first game. In the second game I had a headache. In the third game it was an attack of rheumatism. In the fourth game, I wasn’t feeling well. And in the fifth game? Well, must one have to win every game?” - Siegbert Tarrasch
Ferocious , old school attacks by Marshall parried every time by Capablanca. Mystery and intrigue at nearly every move. It's no wonder this was called the Romantic Era.
Honestly, one of my favorite games of all times along with the story, same with the American Beauty and Frank Marshall using the Marshall Attack on Capablanca for the first time, everytime Frank Marshall is playing a game you KNOW it's going to be entertaining.
About the opening in this game he told: "I saw this Ne4 move from Dr. Lasker. Since Dr. Lasker plays this move regularly, then this move must be a good move, so I played it." He is the #1 person in history who proved that people care openings way too much, but don't study and underestimate end games.
I had a book of Capablanca's games when I was young. I was entranced by the beauty of his playing. The book even had puzzles based on his games. Wish I still had it.
Marshall was clearly a very strong attacking player but the overwhelming feeling I get from these games is that he was too used to playing weaker opponents. In this game, as in the others against Capablanca, he played strong attacking moves but all too often they were not the objectively best moves. There is a famous chess quote and, unfortunately, I can't exactly remember who said it or indeed precisely what it is (!) but the gist is that you always have to assume that your opponent will make the very best reply to whatever move you make. I get the impression that Marshall failed to do this, so Capablanca's excellent intuition and calculation gave him a decisive advantage. I also think that if Marshall had recognised the skill of his opponent that he could have raised his game and become a more formidable obstacle for Capablanca.
But that's exactly what old timey chess was all about. For one, they didn't have engines to tell them the best moves after the game, secondly they didn't have the internet to play against whoever they want when they want - occasions to meet the best players are rare and even then it means a lot of expensive travelling with inefficient transportation of that era. Finally there was this big showmanship aspect, the battle of minds and egos, you did not just wanted to win, you wanted to win *with style*. It's the romantic era of chess. Always trying to play the best/safe moves is why modern chess is more boring on average and will produce more draws.
No, you're wrong. Capa was unbeatable and ever will be the Human Chess Machine, the most formidable chess player of all times. The greatest chess mind.
@@guirosasilvacapablanca was great don’t get me wrong But relative to Era Paul Morphy is a far better player due to the insane difference between him at his prime and 2nd place And absolute peak play before engines Bobby Fischer was insane
I like the way you say "starting to make fun of . . . you know, like we're all just warming up. OK, now back to watching this excellent game like a mad man.
Agad gets nostalgic whenever you say “Bishop to d7.” He shudders and gets a chill up his spine whenever he hears “Bishop to d7.” (Agadmators Favorite Dream) captures captures, Bishop to d7, in this position he resigned the game, unicorns and rainbows.
Thank you! I haven't played chess since I was a kid and now I can't stop watching your videos. They are very entertaining. I love all of the background stories, and your analysis is great, understandable for a novice like myself but still very in depth. I have been binge watching for weeks now. I don't think I am ready to go to a tournament or start hustling people in the park... but I have really enjoyed it, so again THANK YOU!!! P
I enjoy the stories about the games as much as the games themselves. The story of Jose Raul Capablanca starts already wildly and I can’t wait to see more of it!
Im sure no one meant any harm with calling you out on his lack of opening theory. But please do say when he starts learning some. I personally took no issue and am enjoying this saga immensely
Agadmator, thank you. you and your chanell are the reason why I started to play chess again. I'm watching all your vides and you doing a really great job! keep on doing it! Respect from Slovenia 💪😉👑
@@z17seattle Yep. There are 34 or so legal moves in that position, so you'd only need half an hour to spend briefly on each, then spend longer on interesting moves. People really, really into chess will happily do this.
@@danusiaspock9253 half an hour? Probably much less assuming you have made every move up to this point. It's not a cold position. Moves like kh1, kf1 can probably be ruled out in seconds as white is on the attack and down 2 pawns so quiet moves will likely not help. Every rook move could be ruled out in seconds, rf1 doesnt help towards an attack, and e very other rook move ra1,rb1,rc1,rd1 get mated instantly. So theres 7 moves ruled out in under a minute. Qg6,h3,g3,g4,f3,f4 nh5 qh5 ne8 ng8 qf4 bc8, be6 bc2, 14 more moves that can be ruled out in under 10 seconds a piece. 21 moves ruled out in under 3 minutes. It's easier than you think once you get started.
@@z17seattle "half an hour? Probably much less assuming you have made every move up to this point. It's not a cold position." Agreed; I didn't mean so much during an actual game, but someone dryly analysing it after the fact. You're right, a lot of moves could be ruled out much quicker than I implied, but my point was, you could spend a whole minute looking at every single legal move, and it wouldn't eat up an entire afternoon or anything like that.
Beautiful game. Masters of the past were simply too good. Thanks for the video. I will show this to both of my children to give them a glimpse of the expertise of the old school chess.
I saw bishop d7 without seeing the back rank weakness fully. Marshall's attack is countered so well by Capablanca's white bishop only to become a major positional weakness. Great game and commentary.
I actually appreciated each time it was mentioned that he hadn't studied opening theory. Even if it has been mentioned multiple times. It's significant enough that it's worth multiple mentions.
I saw that blacks remaining rook was a liability after you said to pause the video (That was the move Rxd7), but because you said the counterattack by white uses the whole board I thought that somehow the white rook would enter the attack. My mistake it's still defending. It's interesting how not understanding the motive of a question like try to find a move because of incorrect understanding of a clue messes up ones perception of the game. It is a weird move, but one that keeps a player with an open mind. Agadmator thank-you for sharing your opinion on the move after it was played, I felt happy for you that you respected the idea behind the move and that you promote it. Excellent video.
You are the best at what you do. You move the game along fairly quickly which I like. I actually saw the move Bd7 but didn't see all the variations attached to it. Keep up the good work.
Awesome job as usual. I just wish you had confirmed Capablanca's analysis with the engines a bit more often. You mention where Capablanca makes asessments of the position. I am very curious to what degree the engines agreed with him.
GM Larry Christiansen calls that Bd7 an earth shattering chess move in his analysis of greatest attacking games from the past. Now I'm able to appreciate why!! Thanks for doing this series Antonio 👍
Capablanca's games are extremely interesting to me. I've watched each video in this saga at least two times. The games have a crescendo that fascinates me, not to mention that he did not study opening theory... I dare to compare his style with the style of alpha zero, who neither studied opening theory BTW... But Capa's moves are all amazing and they make sense, whereas I don't fully understand all the moves alpha plays. I would love to see Capa playing against Magnus or Alpha. I believe he is the only worthy opponent of brute force engines or Magnus' encyclopedic brains... I remember Kasparov praising Capablanca and I didn't know why. Now I know! -- Thanks so much Agadmator.. I love the stories too!
I did see Bd7 but only because I knew there was something I had to look for. I would never in a thousand years find it over the board. Like I looked it at, didn't see Qf8# at first, so discarded it. Then made dozens of other attempts but after I saw there isn't really a move that achieves anything I came back once again to look at Bd7 and then I realized what I missed. Truly, these are the kind of moves for which I love chess so much, and the game is really interesting as a whole as well of course.
@Agadmator Don't pay attention to your comments so much. You provide wonderful analysis and information that a lot of new and fresh players could benefit from.
11:17 - whats problem with playing Queen D7 to E8? it's a free bishop. If rook takes queen, then Knight on F7 will be check-mate, so it's a free bishop and better position for white i guess... ? Could you explain please?
I didn’t enjoy the show this time with Bd7. It crossed my mind and I put most thought into it but I didn’t know it was THAT amazing of a move. Honestly proud of myself
I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION:at move 42.Qd7 Re7 instead of 43.Rf7 as played in the game the queen can capture the bishop on e8 since the room on e7 cannot capture due to the threat of Nf7 checkmate
Well not really because if you play QF8 then the white bishop captures the knight, and then after the you recapture with the black bishop the pawn is hanging because the black queen no longer protects it so you capture it with the queen, and the position is better for white.
If Qf8, u get Bxc6, Bxc6, Qxe5, and black is without a move. White rook will soon enter the game, your queen cannot move because of Nh5 to Qg7 checkmate, if u move the rook to defend the bishop u get Rd1, if u move the rook to attack the queen u simply get Nxe8 and black is lost, the only piece u can move is the bishop and this is irrelevant since most of whites pieces are on dark squares, it’s just a completely winning position for white. U can’t even move the rook away from the back rank as Nd7 is always a threat attacking the queen and threatening back rank checks with white queen. Black is doomed no matter what with this Bd7 move
At 7:44/12:15 position how it will be: white Qh4, and if black h5 (only option), then white Qg5 with Nd7 not letting black queen to f8, Qh6 mate/ or Black has to give up the rook for knight??
After Capablanca played Re7 (at 11.13 in the video), Marshall played Rf7 and it was game over. But why did Marshall not play Qxe8? The rook on e7 cannot capture on e8 as it will allow Nf7 checkmate.
Hey Agad! What a wonderful game! For a worse chess player like I am, when I see all those sorts of mate threats I just panic, Capablanca instead actively defenses everything, up until winning.

I agree, I've honestly been digging the mini chess history lessons

Agreed
The Agadmator way is the best way. (At least for us history buffs!)
Agreed
I just have one question: Did Capablanca study opening theory? I don't think that has been mentioned yet.
Entropy nope!

No idea. I missed the start because I was laughing too much. My state pension won't stretch to the "Capablanca didn't study opening theory" merch when it comes out so I paid the fine by paypal instead.
Yes , he studied Karpov's openings book.
No, he had only read an analysis on one opening, by the world champion (Magnus Carlsen).
The lack of theory is what makes Capablancas games so enjoyable to watch.
The really amazing thing, and few people know this, is that Capablanca didn't even know anything about chess. He was a model for Cuban GQ.
@@andrew_owens7680 This is not true.

The depth and complexity of these Capablance-Marshall games are remarkable. It seems most every position is loaded with hidden intrigue.

What a fabulous game and especially the bishop move at the end. Incredible and exactly what makes this the greatest game man has ever created.

Thank you for all the amount of videos i have to watch so i never get bored, greetings from Ecuador!
1:50 - dxc4 opening the diagonal for the bishop.
And this move made without Capablanca having any knowledge of openings.
Yhup, a pretty natural move for him to make at his age
I have tried to study some opening theory but look at Caba, his innate ability more than compensates the lack of opening book knowledge
Totally amazing with so many incredible variations. Both men were fantastic

Now I know! -- Thanks so much Agadmator.. I love the stories too!
Capa forever will be the greatest mind in chess. Like Mozart in classical music. Da Vinci in arts.
I think it should be stressed that Capablanca is playing without any opening, for me at least, it gives a very good sense of just how good he was.
You spoil us so much with this excellent content agadmator! Hope to become a supporter!
12:39 a glitch in the Matrix
I did see Bd7 but only because I knew there was something I had to look for. I would never in a thousand years find it over the board. Like I looked it at, didn't see Qf8# at first, so discarded it. Then made dozens of other attempts but after I saw there isn't really a move that achieves anything I came back once again to look at Bd7 and then I realized what I missed. Truly, these are the kind of moves for which I love chess so much, and the game is really interesting as a whole as well of course.
Wow indeed! That bishop move is amazing.
I cant play chess but I like to listen to your knowledge and love for the game. Amazing man!
@Agadmator Don't pay attention to your comments so much. You provide wonderful analysis and information that a lot of new and fresh players could benefit from.
11:17 - whats problem with playing Queen D7 to E8? it's a free bishop. If rook takes queen, then Knight on F7 will be check-mate, so it's a free bishop and better position for white i guess... ? Could you explain please?
I have a strong feeling that Tal would have found Bd7.
I agree

Without a doubt, the move of all moves, brilliant!!
My Lord, how I love these men.
Good game, good comments. Congratulations Agaadmator.👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
These people do Magic on the board.
It's like being a street fighter and watching Goku vs. Vegeta face off.
That was a bloodfest. Loved it.
I didn’t enjoy the show this time with Bd7. It crossed my mind and I put most thought into it but I didn’t know it was THAT amazing of a move. Honestly proud of myself
I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION:at move 42.Qd7 Re7 instead of 43.Rf7 as played in the game the queen can capture the bishop on e8 since the room on e7 cannot capture due to the threat of Nf7 checkmate
I am an excellent subscriber and I demand more Agadmator stories !
- Very intriguing game. What computers might say about the move Bd7?
Respect for Frank Marshall. What a quality. I'm no way near.
Damn. That's one beautiful game.
13:52 Black Qf8 can possibly foil whites Bd7 move of all moves.
Well not really because if you play QF8 then the white bishop captures the knight, and then after the you recapture with the black bishop the pawn is hanging because the black queen no longer protects it so you capture it with the queen, and the position is better for white.
If Qf8, u get Bxc6, Bxc6, Qxe5, and black is without a move. White rook will soon enter the game, your queen cannot move because of Nh5 to Qg7 checkmate, if u move the rook to defend the bishop u get Rd1, if u move the rook to attack the queen u simply get Nxe8 and black is lost, the only piece u can move is the bishop and this is irrelevant since most of whites pieces are on dark squares, it’s just a completely winning position for white. U can’t even move the rook away from the back rank as Nd7 is always a threat attacking the queen and threatening back rank checks with white queen. Black is doomed no matter what with this Bd7 move
Ferocious defending, ferocious attacking, and ferocious commentating. Brilliant. And what a poisonous Bishop move Capa discovered. Fantastic.
You sir, are an excellent revealer of hidden moves!
Wow. Is it just me or is every game of this match so captivating. Every move is a haymaker
At 7:44/12:15 position how it will be: white Qh4, and if black h5 (only option), then white Qg5 with Nd7 not letting black queen to f8, Qh6 mate/ or Black has to give up the rook for knight??
After Capablanca played Re7 (at 11.13 in the video), Marshall played Rf7 and it was game over. But why did Marshall not play Qxe8? The rook on e7 cannot capture on e8 as it will allow Nf7 checkmate.
Hey Agad! What a wonderful game! For a worse chess player like I am, when I see all those sorts of mate threats I just panic, Capablanca instead actively defenses everything, up until winning.

Such a beautiful game to watch
Capablanca was the original inventor of "Bullying" .........Marshall had all ready to call himself best of the world, except that he wasn't.........he had to throw all his T-Shirt saying "Marshall n°1"
After watching this instead of becoming fan of Marshall I become fan of Marshall! What an attack!! Though it is unsuccessful
Well... I am really glad the series I voted for did not get majority, cause this is a TREAT
This made my day i juste watch a great video and i figure out the move all moves
Capablancas moves are ao simple .It truly makes chess a beautiful game❤
I believe the B-d7 move is known as a Novotny Interference. It cuts two defensive lines and one of them remains blocked.
