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.

my friends thanked me for the information (about may the 15. 1914 being a great day for alekhine) and i should tell you that they are very happy for alexander alekhine
WAIT!? So Capablanca didn't study openings, told everyone to study endgames, and privately mastered the middle game, so the other two didn't matter?? The MAD LAD!!
Capa did not said that he did not study openings..what he said is to study endgame first before anything else. So it means you will have to study opening and middlegame..
Fisher's exact comment on Capablanca was that Capa was possibly the greatest player in the entire history of chess
3:00 when the dog saw that Alekhine chose the standard move , instead of complicating the game,he just left!!😂😂😂
good catch dude!
@Chess maniac, don't understimate "medo" he has a vast knowledge of chess, he is subscriber number 1
Great Day for Agadmator video! Like every other day.
It's better than porn
May 15th is a great day for me as well, I first time stepped on earth.
@@real_anil9688 tell me something about el classico or cl xd
I just can't get enough of Capa vs Alekhine, the rivalry between the 2 greates chess players ever in my opinion
May 15th is me and my girls anniversary but screw that we will now be celebrating the first time Alexander Alekhine didn’t lose to Capablanca.
There are priorities in life
@@Nicks721 Yes, like chess
I like this capablanca saga Agadmator. who else like it?
Here is bobby's quote on alekhine.."Alekhine developed as a player much more slowly than most. In his twenties, he was an atrocious chessplayer, and didn’t mature until he was well into his thirties." I am excited to read some comments here about this.
Bobby just liked to judge everything and everyone right ? Who are we to disagree
And yet Bobby put him on his 5th greatest chess player of all time (on the top 10 list)
@@vnwa7390 lol. Bobby was a crazy man. He chose Tal at 9th position. Alekhine was a great player but again he was a fraud too. In his books, his published games are not reliable. Those are his made-up moves. Also, he joined Nazis and has hatred for jews.
So what!? "HE HATED THE JEWS SO HE WASNT A GOOD PLAYER"@@jasper5016
#suggestion Please wrap up Stockfish's stunning 50½ - 49½ match win against Leela! LOL
An early Agadmator upload means it’s going to be a good day.
I wake up and open up my TH-cam and see this. Day made!
You mentioned their friendship. Almost looks to me like they both coasted to a tie and preserved energy for upcoming opponents.
Really loving the Casablanca saga.
As this is a quick game, I'm expecting for another video today
Can pronounce every name perfectly except mine lol, Love you! and thanks for the vast giggles
06:46 that statement was too cute Antonio👍☺️
this game is world' best minds battle❤️
Thanks for video. I think Alekhine really deserve a saga. Please consider it in the future Agadmator :)
Every time I see a new capablanca video I have a nice relaxing time falling asleep
2:46 that eye blick 😁😁
I really like the way you add stories on every video you make..it spices up the flavor very much. I remember i read something maybe in the book my 60 memorable games where fischer also said that alekhine's playjust got stronger at his 30's..how do u assess that statement.
A lot of these stories are flat out in accurate... For example Bobby Fischer never said that Capablanca was weak in the end games he said he was so good in the middle game that he created a better end game
Awesome video! Thanks for the hard work!
I am a recent subscriber so the first saga I watched was the Fischer saga however only after going through the Casablanca saga so many other other legends' games I truly understand how strong or magical Fischer was
This subscription is the one I'm most proud of
Pls make a video for mr hoodie guy that won against a chess celebrity
It will be crushing for me to see Capablanca losing against Alekhine... But history is written... I can't change it. It's just, I'm so sad about it.
No worries, Capablanca was plus 2 lifetime vs Alekhine. Did u know that?
@@user-ts2co4ov5h yes but he lost his title plus we already passed that +2 line
Why? Alekhine was a brilliant player in his prime, a magician. A true master of the middle game. Its fair that he managed some wins against Capablanca.
Good to show an easy game that still had some significance
add old Capa’s games you’ve covered to the playlist plz
After my daily fix of agadmator's awesome videos, it's gona be a good day!
Seeing the Capablanca saga it is clear to say that Capablanca was excellent to convert middlegame to endgame. If he wasn't an excellent endgame player he was an excellent converter to endgame, knowing exactly witch endgame who is winning.
thanks agad again.....
awesome
When i listen to you it is very very amazing
You narrate it si well..... Keep it up
Please show us the championship match with alekine vs capa
Not thrilling but you really can learn a bit from here. Nice. Thanks, Antonio!
Thank you so much for a fascinating presentation of Capablanca. I want to be able to play and be like Capablanca. There are no movie clips of Capa, so one can get an idea of what was like human? How he moved, how he talked, how he thought, etc.?
It’s 6:19 AM here in California, on my way to school. Watching this makes me happy before cooking
it's 16:25 PM here in South Africa. good morning to you
Fischer NEVER said Capablanca was weak in the endgames. He said his middle game was so good that he would set up better positions for the endgames. In other words, reach better endgames... Fisher's exact comment word-for-word was Capablanca was possibly the GREATEST player in the entire history of chess
Pro tip: If you are following the Capablanca saga and you like every single video then you always know which video's you haven't seen
Capablanca
Verb: an act of complete anihilation of your opponent.
E.g. He simply Capablanca all his opponents without breaking a sweat.
1:25 I always enjoy a good fornite game!
after a lot of matches you shared and I enjoyed watching, this is the first one that is not worth sharing! thank you and regards.
I was going to watch porn but I watched your notification.
Oh....
Its never too late to go back
And now you can finish with "see you soon" instead.
Hello chest lovers!
Agadmator's channel is chess porn.
Alexander doesn"t want lose again againts Capablanca
I like they way he prounance the name of the cuban legend. In spanish he says "llose" instead of José.
Agadmator clearly wasn’t prepared this video.
Title made me think Alekhine won the game. . .#clickbait??
I'd say it's an anti-spoiler. Many viewers don't like when the outcome of the game is spoiled in the title, so agadmator finds titles which describe the game in another way than "In this game X played against Y and won."
Impossible, we all know that Alekhine had not beaten Capa not even once, until their encounter for the world title.....
It's a great day since he didn't lose lol
@@Larry_Kabberga Also the video length of less than 9 minutes; decisive non-miniature games, especially at classical time controls, don't seem to get anything less than 10 minutes' treatment by Agadmator these days
thank you
The description of the video is wrong, it's not the Steinitz variation but the Rubinstein accepted
I'm sure this draw improved Alekhine's day!
Btw Agad are you gonna cover the Alekhine-Capablanca match in this saga?
Please Alekhine series
This May 15th, I will be wishing everyone a Happy Alekhine Didn't Lose To Capablanca Day.
His opposition must have been getting a little concerned about this dude from Cuba. It just seems he was a little better than anyone else in the world. Do you know if Capablanca was a good sport or did he rub it in when he crushed his opponents. The way he was staring down Lasker in those old photos made it appear like he was the baddest dude on the planet and he knew it. Kinda like Magnus today. Would be interesting if you could comment on his reputation among his peers. Although, chess GMs by nature, are just classy professionals.
Botvinnik, said Capablanca was always my idol..And he never said a good thing or compliment any body else
If you know agadmator uses TOTAL antivirus then you are an excellent subscriber... 👍👍👍
A title suggestion for the next Alekhine vs Capablanca game(if capa wins) "Its over ALEKHINE i have the high ground"
#suggestion as next Saga would you consider making a combined series of Karpov and Kasparov. We could start seeing the start, development and rise of Karpov and then after a while through in the Kasparov in the same way. On this way also their common relationship might be also expressed.
Could this suggested saga be copyright infringement case, possibly ? In regards to the documentation of "Karpov Kasparov two kings for a crown"
Casablanca saga is awesome!
You covered his middle game and end game abilities but did Capablanka have good opening theory knowledge? You should definitely let us know in your next video
I don’t know if this comparison will make sense with what Fischer said about the endgame versus middle game but it is from the comic strip xkcd.com.
A hacker said he was awesome because he installed a Trojan into some popular software and got root access when the user downloaded it.
A better hacker said he was better because he hacked the software company and installed a root kit on the original source code.
A better hacker said he was better because he hacked the disk drive manufacturer and installed a root kit on the hard drive platters.
And the winning hacker said he hacked the Big Bang, installing a rootkit in the rocks where they got the magnetic material from which they made the hard drives.
I think even the guy who just won the most games at the end can still claim to be pretty talented. And I bet capablanca was still pretty handy at the endgame.
4.Nd4 is not a psicological weapon, it's simply the best move
Also the engine doesn't prefer Nxe5 after that but Nxd4
When is the 2019 chess championship?
Really excited
World chess championship is once every 2 years
If you're reading this, I hope you have a great day.
If you are reading this, you are having a great day cause you just watched an agad video~
Why didn't Jose push pawn on G6 instead of offering the black bishop all the time and then drawing by repetition?
the most boring game
Not for Alexander..
Not the most boring but I'd like to have seen a little blood on the board.
It looked like one of my games...
Leea VS google deepmind . When? Thank you and keep up the great work Antonio
I am an excellent subscriber... 💕
Nice draw
Hmmmmm, I was expecting an Alekhine victory, considering the title :) Little bit naughty there Antonio.
I was hoping for the Latvian Gambit
Amazing game!
Anyone else on #teamAlekhine?
hello everyone!
Have you guys noticed that agadmator backwards is rotamdaga?
No Alekhine Defence yet. :)
ALEKHINE !!! number 1 !!!!!
The title made me think Alekhine would win :-D
How many sagas are there? I see only fischer and capa.
Looks like they just wanted to mirror each other's moves.
Why you posted this video,
Is there anything special with it?
Oh yes
please Nona gafrindashvili and maia chiburdanidze
Did Capablanca ever played Mikhail Tal?
I feel like I could have drawn this game. Trade trade trade draw
stockfish or commodo engine?
Why is the Rui Lopez so common?
It is the most basic and least complex opening , specially for lower rated players who can easily blunder in a complex opening like King's Gambit , Sicilian , Petrov , French , etc.
I believe it's because it is one of the most principled openings. When you play 1.e4 you open the most possibilities for developing pieces. Then, by playing 2.Nf3 you develop a piece with a tempo, attacking the undefended pawn on e5. And then, by playing 3.Bb5 you are developing a piece to the furthest square available, gaining the most space possible, and also threatening to double black's pawns (if you're willing to give up the bishop pair), and you're also already ready to castle and put your king in a safer square on move 4.
Anyway, if you think about the principles like "capture pawns toward the center", "gain space in the center", "develop pieces with tempo", "king safety", etc., the Ruy Lopez just seems to agree with them a lot.
But what do I know? I'm just a 1200 player :p
Because it's very easy to play as it follows chess principles and white gets clear and stable advantage without allowing much counterplay. One of those opening where White had more winning% (30% and black only 20%) , and if you compare this with Bc4 it's 32% for white 26% for black. You can see the difference
It should also be pointed out that in 1914 the so called "hypermodern" openings (like the king's indian defense or the gruenfeld) were not a thing. 1.d4 always meant Queens Gambit Declined or Tarrasch defense, so when somebody did not want to play against one of those they just played 1.e4
@@brawnstein Cannot agree at all. Especialy with "least complex". It can be very complex, if players want it. There are so many examples of complex Ruy Lopez games that it's really hard to choose one. But if anyone wants, you can take a look in that famous game between Kasparov and Karpov when Kasparov made a number of sacrifices and then crushed Karpov's defences.
My answer why it's so common would be that it's very rich opening for both sides. Both white and black could play successfully either on king's or queen's side. This may sound common, but take other opening, e.g., French. It's a very rare occasion that you'll get a serious game as black if you decide to play it on king's side. I've seen it at the lower levels but usually with little success, since it's much more natural to play the French on queen's side as black. Anyway, back to Ruy Lopez. Both players can choose to go for open or closed positions. Again, in some openings it's one side (e.g., white) which decides on how the game will look like. I think these are the reasons why Ruy Lopez has been played at all levels for so many years.
Myself, I've played Ruy Lopez as white for many years and was quite successful at it. Tried to play it as black and liked it, but again, white can choose not to play this opening and play something else, e.g., Italian game or Scotch, or four knights. Since I like to choose my own openings, I usually play French (was my single response to e4 for a long time), or Sicilian (that's what I play mostly these days).
does anyone know alekhine and capablanca's head to head record?
First view
Love Alhekines defense.
So happy about the game
I try to copy moves on chess.com app, but seems like it has not studied the openings just like capablanka😊
At 3:08 why couldn’t Capablanca play cxd2+ before playing Qxf6 winning a pawn?
Because he wanted to ruin Alekhine 's pawn structure. Cxd2+ only helps white clear open the d file.
Agdamator pls tell what happended to the TCEC
Magnus would win this endgame...
Not against Caruana
@@santiagorodriguez2940 Magnus is better in endgame and even in middlegame, the thing is Caruana used engine preparations in classical time format and still couldn't win 1 out of 12, in blitz Carlsen showed who's the best ;)
@@Tengo25 I used Caruana as an example of a player who is just at his strenght level. Magnus is very good at squeezing water from a stone in endgame positions that are completely equal against strong GMs like Topalov or Fedoseev, but not against Top 10 players like Caruana or Ding Liren (Except for some rare blunder maybe, if there was one)
Since Alekhine here was a top 10 just as Capablanca it is not fair to say that Capablanca was not as good as magnus in the endgame just by looking at this position. That's why I made the comparison between Alekhine and Caruana. I was not thinking on the 2018 world championship specifically

But did he know any opening theory?
Praggu vs Nihal sarin????
nice
no way, 14 comments already
Why am I always "triggered" by your "Hello everyone."??
TFW your endgame could be better but you are the world's best and all your opponents are too weak...
Gee. He doesn't know that 4. Bb5 Nd4 is the Rubinstein variation of the 4 knights opening. Rubinstein. Rings any bell? And this was 1914. This was *not* some sort of "psychological trick".
*Life is the most difficult exam. Many people fail because they try to copy others. Not realizing that everyone has a different question paper. ÷*
life is simple if you know what is all about
random fact: Capablanca means "white coat" in english
id say "white cape"
@@josecapablanca6430 if you say so, Mr.Capablanca; I agree lol
