There's no doubt in my mind that Capa would be a force in any era of chess. There's no substitute for genius.
-
Even Fisher was a great fan of Capablanca .He called him a genius without any doubt.
-
Keeping your cool under such a crazy attack is not easy. What a game.
-
love the old chess full of creativity
-
Capablanca does have the coolest name.
-
The Marshall attack was so threatening that could crush anyone...it gave me goosebumps impending capablanca loss..but to outthink such an attack OVER THE BOARD with some ingenious moves is true genius... I'm convinced he's amongst the top 3 in all time great list with Paul Morphy.
-
Capablanca has always been my favorite. His ability to calculate was astonishing. One of the few who can see the whole board and understand all of the implications and weakness.
-
" you must study the end-game before anything else " RC
-
it's really incredible he could manage defending that attack without any preparation and even he never saw a chess engine in his life.
-
Fantastic prepared attacking ideas by Frank Marshall , and even more amazing difficult defensive ideas found on the go by Capablanca under time constraints !!!
-
This guy’s a great chess commentator… glad I stumbled upon his channel!
-
Without a doubt one of the best players ever a real Genius. A master of class . He will always be remembered on chess history for his incredible performance under pressure
-
I think Capablanca is one of the true geniuses of the early times. He is very flexible and concrete, which are universally important skills. He would learn modern openings in no time
-
If I can take one quality of Jose’s game is his unbelievable poise. That guy is cool as can be, and it shows in his game.
-
Amazing game to analyze, insane vision by Capablanca
-
it was brilliant , glad you are there for the insight
-
It is no bold prediction that a player who was ahead of everyone at his time would be a top player today. This is also true for Morphy, Steinitz, Lasker, Alekhine, Botwinik, Smyslov, Tal, Spasski, Fischer etc.

I was born in Havana, Cuba, just like Capablanca. Since I love chess, Capa is my favorite Cuban. It is a great honor to be born in the country of one of the greatest minds in the history of Chess. Thank you very much for your video, Capa had the brains to play in this era if he was alive. How do we know when we are great? Answer: When you were born in 1888 and they mention your name on the Netflix series The Queen's Gambit and the movie Searching for Bobby Fisher. 100 years from now, those who love this game like myself will know the name Jose Raul Capablanca y Graupera, Havana, Cuba.
