You managed to easily keep my attention for almost 30 minutes talking about chess history. That says everything about why this is my favourite channel.
Most excellent video! By explaining how difficult the negotiations were, it really gets you in the mood for the eventual match between these two players! Good chess games are often so much more than just the moves. Thanks for providing the story off the board.
U r the diamond of the chess community. Keep on shining. Besides, today I saw an announcement at chess.com about the forthcoming tournament with pictures of 11 participants. I recognised 10 of them, all thanks to the vast knowledge from Agadmator. Also, I played a game yesterday at lichess classical shield arena vs opponent similar to my rating (around 1700) and he resigned after 17. move, I played Budapest gambit and after looking analysis I proudly realised I played almost every move recommended by stalkfish 10. I breakthrough 2000 at puzzles and the most of my personal improvement is thanks to the Agadmator chess channel. I started to play and learn chess 10 months ago. Before that time I hadn't played chess since my childhood and have heard only about Fisher, Karpov and Kasparov. Now I have a great hobby and much more joy in everyday life.
I used to play chess quite a bit as a kid, but stopped sometime in high school. I don't know how I stumbled on your channel a year ago, but your videos are a part of my day, everyday... and some months ago your enthusiasm got me excited to start playing chess again. You're the man, dude!
It says much for your power to hold an audience that I first paused the clip and read the entire contract myself and then sat and listened to you read it. Now my knowledge is indeed vast and the excellence of my subscribing is at a new level.
This kind of content really makes the game so much more intriguing. Without the story they are just imperfect games by people noone knows anything about. Thanks for doing this!
You are really excellent at making interesting Chess videos. It is not trivial to do so with a 30' video, l dont know if views will pay you back for the extra effort, buy i Can Say there was not a single minute i got bored. And the funny thing Is that I follow You more then any other TH-camr, even though I'm much more on gaming then chess! Great job, thank you
One of the best your videos. I love those stories around chess world you have sometimes. It's much interesting to watch a game with knowledge of background story. Hope you'll have more of those.
hey agad, i am so amazed that u put so much love to this game. When i get bored, u always there to keep me coming back to this difficult headache making game. will u make a video about yourself in the near future about how is your daily activity that related to chess? i mean like how many times a day u spent for this, or maybe how high is your rating now, what chess book you read, what chess site you visit, how many times u play in a week, do u play online/offline and how strong is your opponent? etc. Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
Regarding the second point of the terms of the match, Lasker actually did use the 2-point requirement to win in a match against him in 1910 against Carl Schlechter (who notably had the reputation of being a drawing master). Regarding point 9, Capablanca's proposal of 15 moves/hr and 6 hours of play would result in a 15 moves played by both sides in two hours, if each side uses it's full time allotment, or 45 moves in 6 hours, not the 90 moves you mentioned (but since it's unlikely that you'd use up your full hour per 15 moves, it's more likely that 50 moves can be made in 6 hours, or at least until he first adjournment).
This was great 👍🏼 thank you Sir for increasing my vast knowledge, I can’t wait for this next tournament, I truly appreciate the amount of work you put into these videos, thank you. 🙏🏼
Since you said you were going to upload the video today, I've been waiting till 3am in the morning in an Asian country :)))) excellent subscriber here and love the minature as well
Nice tricky short game here. Was wondering as the time line moved ever closer to the end -- over the negotiations -- how'd there be any time left for the game, lol. Thx.
Regarding the time required for notice: in today's age it's easy to forget, there were no commercial flights, particularly across the ocean, so just to travel to E.g., Germany would be both expensive and take numerous days to arrive. Changing locale could be a complex affair for Capablanca to arrange.
Ruy Lopez de Segura was originally considered the first World Chess Champion ever, back in the 1500s .. speaks of the long culture and tradition of chess
You need to work more. You got me hooked on the Capablanca vs Lasker saga so I keep checking every couple hours for the next game. I don't even play chess, yet I watch your channel like it's GOT. Maybe you should make a chess movie in your vast free time :)
You managed to easily keep my attention for almost 30 minutes talking about chess history. That says everything about why this is my favourite channel.
Thanks for taking the time to go thru the negotiations. There's no way I would have had the patience to read this on my own.
Capablanca: *gets stabbed*
Lasker: oh well... Hueheueheueheuw
that face when saying "oh my god, it's all over" 😂😂

Kiss me Rhett... Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn

Theresa this is a letter from jan. So should we call it the negotiations.. i wanna challenge you to a game.
Jan Dom I will listen to your Game proposal, and give it serious consideration. Negotiations have begun. 🙂
I however have some terms that we should agree upon.
Another letter from jan arrives.
Jan Dom List your terms Sir, So I may consider them please.
"Oh my god..its all over!" 30:20
Agad... You can make it to Hollywood
The negotiations made by Fisher were piece of cake compered to this :)
say it to alekhine vs capablanca rematch
Fischer was totally in chess history,Morphy lost his first two games against Harvitc so he deliberately lost his first two games against Spassky

Love the date when the quote was said. Gives us even vaster knowledge.
"Oh my god, it's all over" that impression made me laugh harder than it should have lol
C- W- I know right! I think that’s because I have never heard agad using this tone ever
(18.) Before the match shall begin with Mr. Lasker, it will be required for Mr. Capablanca to acquire vast opening knowledge.

This is an amazing video. More in depth stories like this would be awesome.
My vast knowledge is actually getting vast.. No kidding..
Antonio, thanks for sharing the negotiation with us, it is amazing how these pioneerering gentlemen were shaping chess for the future.
This is possibly the best video in the channel, so far. Very interesting.
30:20 What a way to make us laugh after such extensive negotiations 😂 amazing video!
It says much for your power to hold an audience that I first paused the clip and read the entire contract myself and then sat and listened to you read it. Now my knowledge is indeed vast and the excellence of my subscribing is at a new level.
I'll start my own organization consisting of only me, and declare myself world champion. What could go wrong?
Does anyone want to go straight to game moves?
Then go to 28:49

This video is more historical than what I've watch in any channel. Keep it up!!
There are so many things you can do at the bar and at the library but this is surly the best I've heard so far!
Your channel is really a gift to humanity.
You are really excellent at making interesting Chess videos.

30 minutes of fascinating chess history passed in what seemed like just 3 minutes. I was mesmerized.
I actually watched the entire video, and it was so cool to see the negotiations, thanks for a good Friday!
Interesting chess history. Five minutes into the show I paused the video and made popcorn and returned to view the rest. Great chess channel.
Oh my godd, it’s all over... and he resigned the game. The best part of this video 👏👏👏
This was by far your best video , very interesting historical !
Agadmator's admiring giggles during the miniature are delightful. Excellent video.
One of the best your videos. I love those stories around chess world you have sometimes. It's much interesting to watch a game with knowledge of background story. Hope you'll have more of those.

Big respect agdmator..... The effort you put for our entertainment.... You truly deserve to be the best chess youtuber.......
I really appreciate you Antonio for explaining the negotiations. A real commendable thing👍
$2,000 in 1911 is equivalent in purchasing power to $52,891.16 in 2019, a difference of $50,891.16 over 108 years.
I am an excellent subscriber and got to see the game at the end! I was really happy about that surprise
You're right! This IS the moment I've been waiting for. How did you know?
I heard Capa said "Say hello to my little friend!" every time before checkmating Lasker.
I wish the negotiations would go on and have a part 2. It was extremely interesting
Best chess channel on TH-cam.
Once again...the best ever chess channel ever one should subscribe to improvise vast knowledge in chess.

Amazing content! 😁

I'd never imagined to enjoy a video where most of the screen is taken up by a chess board, but where no moves ever happen.
This was great 👍🏼 thank you Sir for increasing my vast knowledge, I can’t wait for this next tournament, I truly appreciate the amount of work you put into these videos, thank you. 🙏🏼
Impressive! That's what I really enjoy about your chanel! Well done!
Well, I'll be trying that Capablanca miniature now...
Thankyou for your hard work and thorough research, which provides premier quality content and vast enlightenment. Agcelsior!
When I see the board with no pictures it really takes me back to the early days
Since you said you were going to upload the video today, I've been waiting till 3am in the morning in an Asian country :)))) excellent subscriber here and love the minature as well
Well, this really does set up the match very nicely. The game at the end is too funny and fast!

Congratulations on all this, Antonio!
Antonio you are my favorite professor of CHESS.
I nicely increased my vast knowledge by watching a 30mins history video without getting bored❤️
gotta love a Friday where we get 50 minutes worth of videos
one of the best videos ever on this channel

next time i'm in the bar with my friends, i'll be sure to whip this vid out. thanks for the tip
Really interesting video. Loved it. Thank you for telling me to make popcorn and keep up the great work. Awesome content.
Lasker's negotiations are a *stacked deck* and as devious as a legal disclaimer for an internet site today!
You need to work more. You got me hooked on the Capablanca vs Lasker saga so I keep checking every couple hours for the next game. I don't even play chess, yet I watch your channel like it's GOT. Maybe you should make a chess movie in your vast free time :)
Amazing, all in one take, excellent work
The negotiations were more complicated than any complicated alpha zero position to understand 😅
Alekhine saga next please!
30 minutes of increasing our vast knowledge, yes please, all day every day
No players photo? Niki Riga you had one job photo here! 😁
Go Agadmator, we need more vast knowledge! Keep it up!
At 30:20, agad's acting is the best.
Yay first time I've ever heard you mention my country of Australia. Got any games of an Australian master?
Thank you for improving my vast knowledge of chess negotiations. :)
Damn, what an extensive story, it is kind of tough for the players when FIDE doesn't exist to govern the chess world back then.
One of the best videos yet...
That was really an excellent reward.thanks
#suggestion If you're going to show any move losses of Capablanca's, Capablanca vs. Becker, Carlsbad 1929 is an 18 move unbelievable loss.
I can't believe I watched 28 minutes of negotiation and no terms were agreed upon in the end I felt really hollow after that

2019 Grand Chess Tour Participants Announced
Croatia GCT (Classical), June 24-July 9, 2019. Zagreb, Croatia.
Hope to see you on television!
Hey, just wanted to point out that the description is incorrect. It shows the info from Milan Vidmar game.
Just a heads up you skipped #5 and #14 when you were going over the terms of the negotiations.
One demand that didn't make the final cut was that the challenger change his surname to Capablasker.
Im at work not listening to vid, y are there no pictures i cant tell whos who
You should do sagas for every world chess champion from Capablanca onwards.
That was awesome 👏 well explained!!
