@@QuiescentPilot Actually, that'd work in German or any other language where the etymological relative of practice does not only refer to the process of improving at something (as in English), but also to the application of theoretical knowledge.
@@gorkemgungor9998 Why? I don't even understand the point of his comment. It's rather annoying to be honest. Every time I see it I am surprised. I don't get your rationale for commenting such a thing
I just watched LessMessYes`s "Best of Agadmator - Funny Chess Moments, PART 1". Some quotes from Agadmator: "Engines are tricky bastards!" 🤣🤣🤣 "My internet service Provider failed to provide me with the service of internet" 🤣🤣🤣 "What a weasel" 🤣🤣🤣 This stuff is pure gold!!!
Thank you very much for the analysis! I really love this game showing how the estimation of position can change to the opposite because of decisions that seem to be just slightly inaccurate. I saw this game in the Russian book called something like "Chess game textbook", game 15, and it has some more findings. First, Capablanca saw the winning 53 ... Qh1 move. He supposes that Janowski was too focused to give a check on 1st line and didn't think that the exact field is important. Second, Janowski had an opportunity to force a draw by 54... Kc1+, but didn't use it. Third, Kasparov commented that 58 ... Qh4!? or 58 ... Qe3!? also could lead to draw assuming accurate game. All this says that before the 59th move nobody except Capablanca had an idea that white could win. It makes the game very inspiring.
These kind of games are my favourite by far!! You have an insane attack as black but Capablanca plays the only moves to defend properly and at the same time turn the tables and win as white. Beatiful game! I'm curious, did Capablanca never mention this Qh1 move in one of his books? I'm sure he saw it at least after the game. I'd like to see what he thought of the position
Thank you very much for the exciting game. David Janowski created such a fierce attack that even Capablanca had to be worried. It is a shame he missed the winning move after such inspired attacking and bravery. I wonder if they analyzed the game after and realized the near miss. Somehow modern games (and draws) seem dull in comparison to active games as this. This game and all the Agadmator videos remind that I know nothing about how to play chess well, and just how great the old masters were.Thank you for your excellent contend and vast knowledge.
Wow, probably one of the greatest chess games I have ever seen before. Capablanca's defense throughout this game was incredible! Also, David Janowski had a great attacking performance. Overall both players had an amazing game. So many valuable chess lessons to be learned from this game indeed!
@@Robin0Blackett Yeah, it makes no sense to pronounce a non-English word like that. Most languages pronounce "j" in the very same way, including - ironically - Agad's native Serbian.
This was the first Capablanca game I saw. It taught me that one blink loses the game. Capablanca was lazy and knew no theory. But somehow he managed to let his prodigious talent win where no one else could.
These two also played in the New York 1924 tournament, which had all the giants of the time (Both Laskers, Capablanca, Alekhine, Tarrasch, Reti, Bogolubov, and others including Janowski who came in last. Lots of fighting games. Would love to see your analysis, especially of Reti's big win over Capablanca. Lasker had lost the world championship to Capablanca a few years before but showed that he still had it by winning the tournament.
This is the third game of Capablanka which I have seen loaded by you. Actually I had already seen this game. All of them were very interesting. Thanks.
Age, perhaps. This game reminds me a little of Janowski-Reshevsky in 1922, when Janowski delayed what seemed to be a crushing sacrifice until it was less effective, then slowly sank and eventually lost.
So in this game, Janowski is one of the greatest players of all time because he did not draw? LOL, greatest players 'WIN' games. Not just 'NOT PLAY FOR A DRAW'! There's a big difference. It's better to draw by perpetual than lose the game. Atleast people will remember that he had upper hand even though he drew unlike a loss.@@ProFac992
AMAZINGLY instructive videos. Delving deeply into the middle-game like this. My chess win rate has improved leaps and bounds after i ditched chess books and just watch 6 youtube videos a day following my opening repertoire. Hope you have a great party!!
Antonio, you've helped a lot of people to improve their chess. I'm just wondering whether this project has improved your chess as well. I can't see how it wouldn't, but I'd like to know what you think about it.
Hi agadmator, dont know if it has already been commented but donostia is basically the basque name for San Sebastian. In the north of the spain lives the basque people which talk their own language (Which its origin is still unknown)
Very nice. I would be glad to see more so aggressive games. That's pretty exciting to see a player using all his arsenal. Also green squares are cool :)
Ah the return of the green square (23:00) it does take me aback even though I just recently saw it for the first time (the previous video I think, yes it is)
23:42 The position is indeed winning for black but not that way. :) the black king will actually be on time to protect the c4 pawn. That's the way to go.
Agadmator one advice if possible can you group all your saga videos into a folder. I follow a few history channels and they group it which makes it very simple to follow. Would really appreciate that
Kudos to Janowski instead a flow attack that lead to an early draw by repetition he provide one game fill with possibilities on both sides. Nowaday players know better and take the draw. The precison of Capa and the others great players of that era has nothing to envy to the game of contemporary great players. I always heard when I was a kid that capablanca was the best end game player ever. Maybe not. but he is up there with the all time best. Thank you again Antonio.
I remember looking at this game decades ago and thinking that instead of Be2 Bf3, Capa could have tried g3 Bg2, which is the approach evangelized by Euwe against an IQP. My engine does not back this up as being better, but if my memory serves me correctly, one of Capas losses was by playing Be2 Bf3.
It seems that some people just have to find fault with Agadmator. Usually very trivial pronunciations or other minor matters. I find him one of the best, if not the best, commentators on any subject on RU-vid, not just chess. I'm into constructive criticism but the majority of negative comments are just nit-picking rubbish. Keep up the good work. How do I donate to his commentary? I'm an old guy who doesn't know everything about RU-vid channels.
UNBELIEVABLE GAME!! Really a great game!! Modern chess players are so boring but this is not. Old games are masterpieces and they teach you so many things
