Follow MprooV on Twitter / mproovapp #agadmator In November 1938, a Dutch radio company AVRO organized and sponsored what was up to that time the strongest tournament ever held. AVRO (Algemeene Vereeniging voor Radio Omroep - literally the General Association for Radio Broadcasting) brought together the World Champion and every one of his major challengers. It ran from the 6th to the 27th of November 1938 with the players based in Amsterdam and each successive round played in a different Dutch town.
This tournament schedule proved rigorous for the older competitors and Capablanca and Alekhine did not fare as well as might have been expected. In the end, Keres and Fine finished in joint first place with Keres declared the winner as a result of a better tie-break score.

Capablanca succeeded with his multi-move plan to get his Knight to the fine outpost on b3... and there it stayed until he resigned!

@tkell31 3 года назад

yeah, I didn't understand the investment, would have been nice to hear why he spent three moves getting it there for virtually no return.

@reelgesh51 3 года назад

@@tkell31 I'd assume he felt the position was somewhat closed cos really the position only opened up with the sacrifces and then taking the a4 pawn n pushing his own pawn for queening to make a queen side attack in the long run (one could also argue that due to capi not needing to move his rook he saved 1 tempo in the process)

Botvinnik is too much underrated in chess history imo. As a player, he was the world champion for more than 10 years and as a coach, he was the one who raised the golden three 'K' of the Russian Chess: Karpov, Kasparov and Kramnik.

@rickrick5041 6 лет назад

To be fair, besides being old, he was sick. Wikapedia: "Capablanca's play was satisfactory in the first half of the event (50%), but collapsed in the second half, when he lost three games. He had only lost 26 tournament games in 29 years. Hooper and Whyld say "he suffered a slight stroke".[2] His wife Olga recalled that his high blood pressure nearly cost him his life: "A doctor screamed at me, 'How could you let him play?'" (at AVRO 1938).[3] In a 1939 interview Capablanca attributed his performance to "very high blood pressure and related circulatory disorders".[4] His doctor wrote that he had dangerously high blood pressure while he was treating him from 1940 until his death in 1942, and believed that it contributed to his death.[5]"

Botvinnik is very under appreciated WC in the history of the game. He dominated chess for probably the longest duration from late 30ies till early 60ies, but because of Alekhin refusing to give him a chance to win World Championship and then the war, he only became WC in 1948. He was able to retain WC until he was 52 years old. In the era of open chess this is ancient as no other subsequent WC in history could get even close to keeping his crown until such an advanced age. Botvinnik was also responsible for the creation of Soviet chess school and personally tutored several future WC from Kasparov to Kramnik. Whatever you may think about Soviet chess school you can not deny that it created some of the strongest players ever to play the game and you can thank Botvinnik for this.

@bravehome4276 4 года назад

In his 20s, Capablanca wrote that he had never read any books on chess openings. In 1925 he wrote that a deeply analyzed theory of chess openings might lead to chess stagnation within 50 years. From these two statements we can conclude that he depended more on his genius for positional analysis and endgame crafting than on deep study of chess openings.

@keyboard_toucher 3 года назад

I felt Ba3 was the move not because I was certain how it was winning, but it just seemed good because it gets a pawn to the 7th rank while still being defended--a pretty good thing to gain at the cost of what had been a useless bishop. Maybe in another game it could have led to a draw, but at least white would be in the driver's seat.

@hammondvoodoo9555 6 лет назад

@ 5:02: Wow, in that critical position Stockfish suggests h3 and evaluates the position with roughly +1. After Ba3, Stockfish gives it over +7 (!) and says that the best defense is Nc5. After Qxa3 the position is even more in white's favor (over +9) and Stockfish sees Nh5 as winning move.

Capablanca is one of my favorites, this is when he was older though.

There are no more checks, and the landlord is screaming for the rent.

I don't find the quote anymore but I think Botwinnik admitted he could not calculate this to the end. He played Ba3 being sure he had the draw safe. Of course no one knows whether he said this due to humility and respect from the great name of his opponent.

Agadmator I think a similar bishop move was made by fischer in fischer vs Spassky game 5. Where Spassky resigned immediately after Fischer's bxa4.

I cracked up at 8:35 when he says ‘but this is ridiculous’. That check would be pretty desperate. E5 would be equally ridiculous.

"No more meaningful checks" is a more accurate way of expressing yourself. Having said that it does seem to require a certain amount of hubris to point out that there are in fact further checks, seemingly ignoring that they amount to either a simple extension of the game by one move or the catastrophic loss of material allowing the game to end even more quickly in favor of the attacker.
