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.

Ohhh man..... I thought for about 5 minutes , pausing the video......
I found queen to g3.....
Capa played queen to g3.....
I was feeling proud.....in the next moment :
Agad : "It was the biggest blunder of Capablanca."
Wtf.....
I found queen takes rook, but I didn't see beyond that very clearly
LMAO
That was funny bro😁😁
I saw R takes queen, but it didn't look winning so I spent several minutes trying to find the winning move before giving up then was happily surprised it was in fact correct as I am rarely ablde to actually find the move.
Same
10:25 Mr.Lasker, рlease stoр making moves for other рlayers.
For me it looks like Lasker and Capablanca were very close, like Luke and Obi van Kenobi
TymexComputing or rather Anakin and Obi-Wan
A wild Lasker appears
Lol missed that initially 😂
He was THAT good of a player.
This week, for the first time, I started hearing Agadmator's chess commentary while I played a game at my club. Specifically, I heard:
"this is a nice rook lift";
"and now the rook has infiltrated the position";
"but now simply captures".
@Nicholas Bruno No, there were no passed pawns, or fast pawns. Maybe I could get Antonio to analyse my game?
"and here of course you see the drawn continuation, but unfortunately we are about to witness a terrible blunder...." fml
"and in this position, @avoncolyte resigned the game."
#agadmator commentates my games too:
“And since there is nothing left to do here, it was in this position that kaldrazidrim resigned the game. Why did he resign? Well...”
@@kaldrazadrim ...and then as he exits the table: Hello Everyone!
Tarrasch's technique deserves special mention. Such restraint. He could have easily blundered the advantage right back to Capablanca, so poisonous was the board.
It seems to me that Capablanca played better when he had no opening theory knowledge :)
He didn't lose for over 8 years from 1916 to 1924, and became world champion.
I can't believe Capablanca is down a piece.
Sarj Ojenal Well it was 104 years ago
Why not?. You think there was an error in recording the moves?
@@droceretik It don't think it was meant literally--just that it is surprising that Capablanca blundered a piece like that. Even agadmator said in the video: "He gives up a full piece, which is unreal for Capablanca, definitely one of the strongest players in the world at the time this tournament was played."
that's because we are used to watch masterpiece games for the player whose saga is dedicated to, in this case Capa..If we can somehow make Agad to cover the whole tournament it would be far more exciting and we would have a broader knowledge for the rest of the players :/
Convict Con hmm i mean it's because capa rarely lose matches from official tournaments since he started playing chess professionally.
10:25 Lasker was haunting the game, therefore the title
I found the Rook takes Queen move, and was very surprised when Capablanca didn't play it. I guess even the best can miss an opportunity at times. I also saw Black's ...Qd2 move that Capablanca missed! These videos are definitely better than reading the games in books. Thanks Antonio!
Anyone else got really sad when Agadmator said "and in this position... José Raúl Capablanca resigned the game"?
😭😭
No, capablanca is a sore loser wasting time when he is about to lose.
@@teranyan
Agad said in a match between stockfish and leela , that no matter if it's a losing position , don't resign put up as much resistance as you can......"as much punishment as you can give".
😉
@@teranyan You have to make your opponent fight for his meal. And there is always a chance to draw the game, or to stalemate. Might as well take it.
Every loss is a learning experience, so I'm sure Capablanca took it that way...
@@teranyan How IS he a sore loser? He is deceased a long time ago. He can't defend against his critics. Your're one of the people who would "stick the boot in" to one of the greatest players of all time at the first sign of him just being human.. What have you done in respect to chess?
This channel is simply the best.
If you get the opportunity in your own games, especially if you're against a stronger opponent, always go for: captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures
{ draw by insufficient material }.
Have you got a speech and/or a writing impediment?
SF would crush you in 5 moves
@@droceretik No.
@@SenorQuichotte It depends. I practice against SF on lichess. Once I beat it on level 7, but level 8 is still too much for me. No human can beat SF at full strength (assuming they don't have computer assistance of their own).
You do know that my original comment was a joke, right?
20:00 captures captures captures captures captures
Medo's excellent pillow collection grows. :)
So brutal, these two losses...thanks for introducing the real, serious drama to this saga.
Greetings from Brazil - Rio de Janeiro. Thank you so Much for your Nice work
Cheers from Los Angeles.
Tarrasch is one of my favorite side characters in this game of thrones.
I love your channel! The way you give us the history, analyze the game, and give us a chess puzzle every video keeps me coming back! Keep up the great work!
Probably the most tenacious defense I have ever seen.
10:40 Even Agadmator admits Tarrasch played like Lasker in this game!
My Saturday was a little rough. Just got a little better.
„And it was in this position that Jose Raul Capablanca has resigned the game“. Never believed I will hear these words
Thank you for your marvellous channel. The more i watch it the more i'm impressed.
Agadmator, you make the game and the tournament come alive over a hundred years later.
Last game you commented on Fisher saying Capablanca only plays good endgames after a marvellous winning midgame. But i feel from my very beginning perspective that Capablanca played this as a legend with a piece down. Very impressive push and constant blocking of positions. Your channel is awesome.
Leko defeated Caruana today, please cover their game #suggestion
Ok
That's wonderful. Thank you !
is it a good game?
15. ... Nh5 Caruana going for the draw again 😆
Dr. Tarrasch played this really good. He was a real legend himself. I am kinda biased towards Dr. Tarrasch as I am a doctor myself :D
Yesss I love this saga!
Beautifully deadpan and droll delivery on "telling your friends and family..."
New to your channel. Love it!!! I was thinking that you should show the winners point of view at the bottom of the screen vs. white's position all the time. That way if black wins, we get to see it from their POV. Just a suggestion. All the best!
Feeling like Capablanca already, wanted to go for the same blunder! :D
10:26 "allows Lasker to trade down 1 more piece " Lol
Wow, surprising to see Capa in such deep kimchi after Qd2!
It’s a great consolation to me that even Capablanca blunders pieces.
Showing us games that Capablanca loses makes it all the more dramatic. Great storytelling!
😮 and I’m actually watching this on Saturday!!!
Impressive resistance by Capablanca a piece down. His biggest blunder was in Karlsbad 1929 against Saemisch as he lost a piece on move 9! In that game Saemisch also had to work hard for the win.
Casperblanca, the game that haunts.
How refreshing to find that even the best make mistakes. Now I don't feel so dumb.
I cant get enough of these videossss
What a psychological blow Capablanca took after his game with Lasker. Going from first place in the tournament to two deserved back to back losses.
Tarrasch is one of rare chess masters ever lived that I have deep admiration.
Agad:- it's a crucial position of the game pause the video and find the best move..
Me:- *pause the game*... (after few moments).. Agadmator has a nice set of pillows.. i kinda like them..🤔
Best chess commentetor as well as best chess channel
So he is human!
Clearly a *frustration hangover game* following the Lasker loss. He's human.
14:39 *BEST MOVE*
d6d2 is the game, but made possible by f4e5. Perhaps Capablanca lost his way in the tangle of combinations and thought d2 was still covered after f4e5. Too bad we don't know how much time he took on f3g3.
What an instructive game! Thx a lot!!
*Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.*
Always a good saturday when you get a nice capa video. I personally love the shirt you're wearing, can you ship to south-africa?
That supposed Tarrasch-quote is actually a german proverb.
"Unglück kommt selten allein."
10:25 a wild Lasker appears
Lasker haunts both this game and this video.
In the hypothetical position at 20:09 it is not clear that W is better. It is Black's move, and if ... Rb8 the B rook can come to b2 and capture on c2 or a2. If W replies Rd1 then ...Rb2 , & W can play Rd7 with mutual pawn-grabbing (beginning ... Rxa2).
Hi brother.. Pls share Magnus calsan defeats as well..
Capablanca needed to see this as an omen to take the psychological element in chess more seriously 😳 because it happened again in his match against Alekhine for the world 🌎 championship.
Very well played by Siegbert Tarrasch!
10:25 Dr.Lasker again couldn't resist himself and made a move for Dr.Tarassch.. 😀😀
Did you apply your shipping fee that comes with a Tracking Number? Hopefully your book arrives soon.
At 19:35: Why can Capablanca not just take the pawn on a3 and try to hold the R vs R+B endgame? Am I missing something here?
That's exactly what I thought. Is it possible that Capa could have drawn after all?
@@yanair2091 he is Capablanca so he can draw it
I might just be missing something, but isn't White Bishop captures on e5 decent as well? 5:02
This happens to Carlsen in the candidates . He was playing so well, his ElO has gone to 2888 and he lost two games in a road, one to Ivanchuk and I thing the other to Peter Svidler and made it limping to the match with Annan. After losing the piece Capa created all kind of problems for Tarrash. Probably he has been too long in Russia ,weather and food not suitable for him. STill Three hurrah for Tarrash.
At the end of your analysis, white could play Rxa3, going into a lost R+B versus R ending. Still with perfect play it takes 20+ moves for black to demonstrate a win. Personally, I'd want black to demonstrate the win before the 50 move rule kicked in.
0:45 i think what Lasker means in "without error there can be no brilliancy" is error by the player creating the brilliancy not the opponent
Lasker is so strong a player, he can even trade pieces in games he doesn't participate in.
10:25
This game is features in 'My System'
An average club player could trundle his way into winning that piece by attacking the queen, taking it, thinking a bit, then thinking "Hey! What about rook takes knight!". As he lost two games on the run, As Patrick McGoohan said in "The Prisoner" TV series "I was off form".
But there was a forced trade of rooks until Jose had gone for a check with the rook. I don't if you have seen it or i miscalculated. I think it was this time 12:38. He could capture the passing pawn with the king.
I love how Capablanca fought here, that's how you play chess
in position 19:37 : after Rb3+, KC4 , why not R:a3? can black do anything with bishop against a rook?
Thank you really nice explained.
Tarrasch is a chess legend, he is also a doctor
thanks man, you da man
10:27 Lasker made a move for Tarasch
Capablanca definitely put up a brilliant resistance after going down a piece but Tarrasch composure to not make a mistake while ahead is also remarkable if it was me the complexity that Capablanca presents would had easily derail me and he properly would had drawn.
In that alternate ending, where White could keep offering his rook in hopes of achieving stalemate, after Black plays ...Kd4, could White then draw by capturing the pawn?
I THINK SO
white could draw but it's a win for black according to stockfish if played perfectly by black
Lasker is just underappreciated.
19:28 but the rook could take the a3 pawn , correct? rook vs rook & bishop ending could be a draw?
I believe Agadmator made a mistake there. 18:55 instead of Kb3 for black the best move should be Bc2, then black can triangulate with his bishop and only then play Kb3
Or maybe I'm just missing something
Probably a draw vs Lasker would have yielded him a draw here, too.
Certainly he saw captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures, captures. But ... then he out-clevered himself pushing for the win.
In the series of exchanges, i don’t get why in the end black would choose to take the final bishop in e5, when they can simply take the pawn in e4 and equalize the material... Bxe5 Bxe4 Bxf6 Bxc2 Re1 Rb8 and black seems perfectly fine to me... but of course its not worse than being doWn a piece right 😏
Why didn't Capablanca try to defend his c4 pawn in the end..?
capa down a piece and still played like this... the guy was good
Capablanca must have been on full tilt after losing to lasker to make such a blunder
You have good taste. We're wearing the same T-shirt.
capa doing the pirate vlad like us in blitz
I guess when you are extraordinary , you try too hard to do extraordinary things. In that process, one forgets ..that sometimes, the simplicity of ordinary things is the best way possible...
At the point that Capablanca made the blunder with his Queen to g3 you did not analyze bishop captures rook on e5. Would this not have been a chance for Capablanca to pick up a pawn?
I can't believe I'm still finding the best moves and continuations; I was never this good at chess when I played competitively and I'm getting old...bizarre. It's like the Twilight Zone :(
19:23 how bout Rxa3 grabbing a pawn with some drawing chances
10:26 A wonderful move that allows LASKER to trade down?
19:55 when it's good to go for captures, captures, captures, ...
10:26 Lasker was playing this game too??
Of course!
Lasker bitch slapped everyone in that tournament to Vladivostok, why would he limit himself to *just* his own games?
19:53 if took captures pawn isn't it a draw anymor??? Cuz the king is on a wrong color square
10:26 You're welcome
Agadmator Who do you prefer.... Capablanca or Lasker
I blame Lasker! He pushed Capa of his focus...
PS I know it is Capablanca's responsibility to stay in focus, and these were all fair matches, I just dont like Lasker so I will always favour Capa 😊
For this weekend i have no wlan at home.. no problem. For agadmator i use my mobile internet
The four Knight opening could have ended in a 13 pawns plus 2 rooks endgame, but Capablanca didn't come prepared for the middlegame whereas Tarrash was prepared for Bf4
🙃

The situation when players make elementary blunders and lose afterwards, is not simply because it's chess and all things can happen. This kind of blindness happened to all the greatest players in the history with no exceptions, and it's due to the brain activity fluctuations. Human brain doesn't always work in full performance, there are days when no matter how hard you try, your brain just cannot produce any bright idea and you can make chidlish blunders in anything you do, including chess, low brain activity even leads to different kinds of accidents because the person simply doesn't have a quick enough reaction on such days.
This game shows how great players hate losing games
