The older I get, the more I want to learn this type of playing style.
Right? In high school I was all about the King's Gambit and now I'm trying to play positionally. Chess is hard and I love it

@@Rspknlikeab0ssxdCapablanca did an excellent job using pawns to do the "squeeze" Magnus himself relies on positional techniques to escape very dangerous positions. Positional knowledge is really where it's at bec tactics only will get you easily destroyed in the opening against a very advanced player.
I believe they call this old man chess :-)
Lock position double flank double attack pentrating pressure
These little moments make think how sad death is, Capablanca could be today smashing everybody else.
Great game review, John, I remember going over Capablanca games when I was younger and being mesmerized by the seeming simplicity of his play. It seemed so easy until I tried it! One of the truly great geniuses of the game, I'd love to see Carlsen and Jose go at it, wouldn't that be interesting.
You almost had me with 2011
Capablanca played Chess like this ALL THE TIME. He had an ABSOLUTE mastery of all phases of the game. He played so simply that most Chessplayers thought they could do what Capa did. However, Capa understood that the secret to Chess was board control. This game is no exception. Capas greater board control led to a winning ending. 😒
You need to be a great tactician to play a game like this, imposing your positional game on your opponent requires being able to put out the fire before your opponent buys the matches, Capa was the greatest specially around 1918, Thank you for another great video!
A true Genius of the game!
I once won a game where I didn't attempt to attack at all. I just kept position as solid as I could and barred my opponent's attacks and eventually they were left with less material and no play. My opponent complained after the game that I don't know how to play chess. Lol.
Go Capablanca! (But stay there).
What a great analysis this is
Great teaching!
Often the simplest strategies are best in complicated positions..
I wouldn't argue that d3 was a tactic from Capa. There were no other pawn moves available and his rook was busy on a2 lol. I might say that he chose a good positional move that happened to have tactical value lol
Great game and commentary.
Fabulous analysis on this stifling paralysis. Gracias chess dogius.
Apparently this was an exhibition off-hand game, played in Buenos Aires on May 19, 1911. Capa's opponent was Leopoldo Carranza, a strong player from Argentina.
It actually works! The goal is to keep a solid structure. I hope to get to the point where it seems just natural play as it is! Chess is hard...
More Fischer and capa games please
Ohhhhh my gooooood
Mature chess style. Only Capablanca. Issss sooooo amazing and intelectual. Capablanca, Magnus, Karpov
Tactics against your position only work when there is a flaw in your position.Tactics for you only work because your opponent has made a positional mistake.
Excellent video!! Personally, I find such positional play to be far more exciting than coffeehouse tactics which, quite often, even a 1500 player can find. Anyone can learn tactics since there are many books out there with tactical puzzles. However, there are almost no books out there with positional puzzles. Thanks for the post, ChessDawg.
yessss it happened in 2011
😕
I honestly think your ability to annotate & review games had improved since you've read, "Chess Structures." Something about that book is making me want to buy it ASAP when I saw this video.
Capablanca was a good movie too.
Little known fact... Alekhine wrote the screenplay.
What's the name of this movie and where can I buy it?
Nice game by Capablanca, who took full advantage of the weak moves of his opponent.
move*
lowkey shade at GM Finegold 😂 “Never play f6”
2011 euh! I did not know that Capa was ressurected🤣🤣😅😁
I m 47 yrs old n still learning to play chess. Its like filling up the Gaza tunnels with sea water.
2:33 I dont like white's position at all. It should long castle. Black's Bishop's are too active!
You make a good case, John. Technically there’s tactics but in this case, nothing GM level.
The position is, as the computers say, level at the point when the endgame arrives. I'm not sure why you think you know better than the engines.
The dude literally said why. The plasticity of the pawns structures. Engines can always see 28578 moves ahead, even GMS admit they cant always be "trusted" because there's no human that can look that far. So these kind of intuitive rules are interesting.
@@stephenr80 The position is obviously equal. At the point he makes that comment, White's kingside pawns are reasonably mobile.
The position is obviously drawish; the fact Black's pawns are a little more mobile does nothing to change this evaluation.
Now that the utter nonsense about needing to get all learned up with tactics has resoundingly been put to bed, I feel really good about my Elo going on a moonshot. Lfg!!
Why are we looking at this from White's perspective?
Blunder 32 seconds in my friend.
Cap pinned a Knight. Sorry but that's tactics.
Classic Capablanca. Whait to the endgame where the opponent plays like ass. Not denying his skills but Capablanca is the least "extraordinary" among goats. And by goats i mean top 20 or something.
XD?
Are u dumb?
