Capablanca (The Chess Machine) vs. Colle

[Sasukekillsitachi]

Capa makes chess look so easy!

But in reality he is a cold calculating python that strangles his opponent to the very bit!

Capa you are my chess idol!

[VegasPro11Tutorials]

7:21 why not e3 - b6?

[theman1819]

damn just show the match and dont show all the variations

[sol200997]

right from the very start capablanca owned the chessboard :)

[SuperPeristilo]

I learned a bit from this game. Thanks!

[lolatmine]

thank you good work on explaining

[cchairez1947]

As a chess player, I enjoyed the video and excellent observations. Thank you, great job! Thank you for promoting chess!

[rescats1]

capablanca was the truth the only other people i ever seen who has a game similar is bobyy fischer gary kasporove and magnus carlsen although i will say magnus has a much stronger game he is a very very very sharp player

[1Ma9iN8tive]

excellent insights thank you for posting

[madogmatty1]

You are a hero <3

[rblasewitz]

Thank you very much for your analysis. I play for the pure enjoyment, but your insights are so keen and crisp. I learn each time I study your games. Thank you!Think about writing a book or two to help us beginners learn the real strategy behind chess.

[MutinyFever]

An excellent and engaging lecture, very clear and accessible. Thank you.

[ChessNetwork]

@MutinyFever Thanks for the feedback MutinyF. :)

[gustavonarez]

at the end after Kxf7 it's better Qh7+... if Kf8 then Ah6+, Ke8, Re1+, Ne4, Rxe4# and if Ke8 well then Qe7#

[nuklearwinter]

awesome videos



[retsel914]

Really nice commentator, whose not doing anything is he who complains,have your own chess video if u want and comment it yourself, keep up JERRY. TAKE CARE TOO, (a message from PHILIPPINES)

[YtubeUserr]

It's a "i don't know what to do move". lol!

[ChessNetwork]

@YtubeUserr :)

[themailman43]

Jose Raul Capablanca, the greatest Chess Maestro ever.

[ALVARINBO]

Very good video and explanation!! Thanks!!

[ggdelgado]

great vid. change the mic. it is hard to understand. specially for those who don't speak english very well, like me. 

[ChessNetwork]

@ggdelgado Thanks. View a current video for a new mic. :)

[Cronoviajero]

Too boring of a chess comentator.

[warnie2121]

@Cronoviajero lol

[USMARSHALLTOMBSTONE]

@Jerry very good video but I am trying to figure out are you my little Buddy from back in the day Hint THE ICEMAN if so I am very impressed keep up the good work!!

[apdodger]

Your videos are excellent. I just came across them today, but I am an immediate subscriber. Thanks for the insightful commentary.

[isedairi]

How do you get a board up on youtube?

[ChessNetwork]

@isedairi View my video "How to create a YouTube Chess Video".

[GarrBear314]

i was hoping this is where colle played his system but capa won as black. oh well still a nice vid

[dragonheadofthewest]

awesome video, verry funny when you said is that how you want to tread you knight, he probably doesnt want to have to do that lol.... but good video really i never realised that knight takes knight is that bad... thanks for the vid

[lapticul]

wonderful commentary

[TheBlindPig1]

After 24 Bxc4?? Bishop opposite colours. Am i right or am i right? Even if your up pawns in a B.O.C it can end up a draw, why complicate matters? And if you have pressure why alleviate it? unless your going into a simple won endgame. Dont say 19..Bb2 , "i dont know what to do move" you give the impression that you must always do something in chess. sometimes you must wait, like the tiger, let your opponent run, he may just end up in your jaws.

[TheDandy0825]

grande giocatore Capablanca davvero grande

[scottriano]

at 8:47 why don't blacks just move forward the pawn to protect it? thank you

[robotkarel]

Era una aplanadora ese Capablanca

[Shelobes]

Your videos are great! you really explain whats goin on!! keep the good work!

[irondogon]

Well paced and very clear. Combination of Capablanca's lucid play and Jerry's commentary makes Chess seem easy!

[achilies12346]

seems like a sicilian dragon to me hahah!

[dumpnchase]

As always well done. Thanks

[PHOBOSEDEMOS]

Nunca vi nada mais esquisito um Cubano ser campeão de Xadrez,ta,bém foi o único esse esporte é dominado pelos russos basta ver os gênios que de lá vieram e a quantidade de títulos que eles ganharam,Só o gary Kasparov deve ter sido campeão mundial umas 30 vezes

[scorici]

What software do you use to record the video and what chess software are you using?

[andropov14]

This is great, I learn so much from your explanations. I didn´t get the remark about the pawn being unprotected. Since it is attacked as many times as it is guarded I would consider it protected - what is the deeper meaning?

[KevinByrne2]

@andropov14 -- At 5:22, the c4 pawn is attacked once by a bishop and defended once by a bishop. If ...Rc8, for example (attacking the c4 pawn a second time), that move allows ...Bxc4; Bxc4(B), Rxc4(B) and Black has won a pawn -- as if the pawn on c4 had had no defenders.

[twngrd]

capa is my favorite world champion

[kelly980]

You are such a boring speaker it is unbelievable.

[kingjorge19]

@kelly980 hes so boring, yet youre still watching his video

[kelly980]

@kingjorge19 I've completely stopped watching these vids now because it really does my head in. 

[samus1421]

4:38 OH MY GOD!!! MY HEADS GOING TO EXPLODE!!! lol

[Grallern1990]

Thanks alot for all your videos Jerry. They have really helped me out!!!:)

[tigranvartanovitch]

Thanks for that. Great game.

[DamnControl2]

Nice attack leaving the black queen away from action!

[eugdog106]

who is the commentator?

[geennaam1988]

i love you man, much love from holland, amsterdam :P

[danielfact]

Excellent review! Thank you so much!

[almoghh]

I don't see why a piece with the same number of attackers and protectors is unprotected....

lets say I attack a knight with my bishop and he protect it with a pawn....

If I munch up he's knight he's pawn will win my bishop....

why was the knight unprotected?

[michaeljimpogi23]

@almoghh maybe because if it is attacked once again,you'll have to defend again

[sotovo]

@almoghh it has to do with balance.

0 attackers 0 defenders: if one more attacker comes they can take the piece.

1 attacker 1 defender: if one more attacker comes they can take the piece

1 attacker 2 defenders: if one more attacker comes they cannot take the piece

[TheDraxxor]

Just great video I love all your videos :)

And I´m sure I´ll learn a lot from you

[halette20001]

"A piece that has the same number of attackers and defenders is essentially, UNPROTECTED!"

I just learned something new! Thank you very much for this video! :)

[koukin1111]

That's cool , never saw a good commentary like this! Subbed and 5 Stars.

[AcePro]

You make REALLY interesting videos

[slmouradian]

Another video with great commentary! :) Can't wait for the next one!

Thanks Jerry

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks slmouradian. :)

[geovaniluna]

@ChessNetwork

Do you have Capablanca-Alekhine World Championship Match 1927 ; game 34th when Alekhine wins Capablanca also the 3th when Capablanca wins Alekhine.

Thanks for the videos they are awesome

[Obex99]

@slmouradian

fantastic analysis. Thank you very much!

[Dyers88]

very interesting, thanks. will give me confidence to try the english!

[Bolzhoden]

Good, better, Chessnetwork!

[ChessNetwork]

Your comment made me laugh. :)

[nblfyb]

I guess black coulda run down time in the end by delaying, if the game were timed. :D What should black have done to win?

Benson and Tonic

myspace/bensonandtonicproducti­ons

[heraclitus44]

Very nice!

[kr4m]

A riveting game with excellent commentary and well explained line variations. Colle did it do himself by luring out Capablanca's queen. That man IS a machine!

(The audio track sounds a bit too low and the narration sounds boosted with some echo.)

[chretzel]

nice! looking forward to the next!

[sawrasam]

very clear and helpful tuition-Capablanca being one of my heroes adds even more to this-thanks

whats next

[randrl]

Indeed, those are great.

Really like the way you explain the moves.

Thanks!

[880330145789]

enjoyed it ^^

[sktubis]

Another great video. You might wanna invest in a new mic though!

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the compliment and feedback! I just bought a new mic and am beginning to wonder if it's a laptop issue now. What are you hearing on your end with this mic? I'd appreciate the feedback on this.

[sktubis]

It sort of sounds like a common low quality audio recording (kind of similar to a walkie talkie). If it's not the mic, it might be the recording software. Perhaps the settings are recording the audio at a really low bitrate.

[barsorrro]

Personally, I have absolutely no complaints whatever about the sound quality of this: for me, it was quite perfect.

A great commentary, and a very instructive game. Even if... extremely solid ;)) -- sometimes games like these can make one think that chess is almost a game of one good variation: Capablanca is just so solid and methodical here. You certainly help the impression, Jerry! (... the impression of ruthless logic, not one of "boredom" :))

[gurdjieff1]

@ChessNetwork I think the sound of your voice is perfect, don't change anything. It's nice and soothing.

[fffffvegita8]

@sktubis We should buy for him :D



[mmiskolc]

your chess analysis is the best. love these historic games!

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks mmiskolc :)

[redchopin]

Cool video and great analysis as always! Keep em coming! :)

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks redchopin. :)

[solinero]

Very nice video. It's great how you explain all these concepts in a simple yet interesting way and cover all those different subjects like position in this one. I'm looking forward for the next video allready. :-)

[ChessNetwork]

Cool. I appreciate the feedback. :)

[NordicSpirit]

I like that video, thanks!

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks NordicSpirit. :)

[Virtualwallvirus]

5 stars from me as always.

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks VWV. :)

[RaelXavier]

Great work as usual, I always enjoy watching your commentaries.

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the feedback RaelX. :)

[smashinsomething]

The CC translation is a little better in this than in other videos. You have a very clear voice for that to happen!

Another good analysis though :D

[mraxeguy]

See? I always comment on your clear voice, I'm not alone :D.

Great video, thanks for the upload.

[ChessNetwork]

Haha...true.

[ChessNetwork]

The CC has a ways to go still. :)

[theboombody]

Darn man, this analysis is fantastic. Very little escapes the eye of the analyzer. I love the concentration on game finesse, like, "Why would you move a piece back to a place it was before? That simply isn't done."

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the feedback TBB. :)

[dragondavis47]

nice video!! what chess program are you using in these videos?

[ChessNetwork]

Blitzin

[ChessNetwork]

You're weeeeeeeeeeeeeelcome :)

[BriBalance]

Awesome video and game!

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks BB. :)

[nachobis]

5 start video :)... excuse me whats the most current game in the present that u have analized here at youtube? i want to see how u analyze a modern game :P thanks

[ChessNetwork]

I cover a blitz game I played vs an IM. You can view my playlist of game analyses to see that game. Just categorize them by upload date.

[watchtower183]

Great work.

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks watchtower. :)

[happytenzin]

You know Jerry I used to study Capablanca just as much as I do to Morphy and Fischer. He was one of those great analyst that blows your mind away through unlocking simple concepts. I appreciate your return Jerry, Thank you !!

[ChessNetwork]

You're welcome happyT. :)

[roaddog481]

Nice job Jerry. I always enjoy your analysis on the great Grandmasters games. I really like your live blitz games also.

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the feedback roaddog. :)

[fatbohi]

nice video man i wish i could play chess like that (white peices)

[ChessNetwork]

I think there are others wishing similar. :)

[Sharkbait173]

good game

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks Sharky!

[BasicPawn]

Your commentary and explainations are crystal clear. Thank you, and as always, I look forward to your next video.

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the compliment BasicP. :)

[Jamoril]

In addition to the other remarks, thank you for making it look great in fullscreen ;)

[ChessNetwork]

Is this video really better in full screen compared to other videos of mine in full screen?

[Jamoril]

The fullscreen board just looks better, in my opinion. I like seeing the board as large a s possible :)

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for the feedback. :)

[ledgeleaper]

I'll probably watch this video a dozen or so more times because of your most excellent analysis. Thanks Jerry!

[ChessNetwork]

Only a dozen? :)

[numbcore]

Once again, great show :D

[ChessNetwork]

I just took a bow. :)

[ChessNetwork]

Yes, black is the man behind the famous "Colle" opening. :)

[NottinghamEngland]

brilliant play by Capablanca. Thanks again for making these splendid videos

[ChessNetwork]

He was a brilliant man. You're welcome NottinghamE. :)

[alaingoldman]

love the videos

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks alaingoldman. :)

[lilondra]

Nice video :) learned alot ^^ I liked how white forced black to take passive squares while keeping the initiative :)

[ChessNetwork]

Simple and strong play by white.

[EricSmyth14]

I dont watch your videos, I just like to listen to your voice.

[ChessNetwork]

Haha. Why's that?

[ThisSentenceIsFalse]

I love Capa's play here--so clear and simple--but as for Colle, I was already flinching when he exchanged knights so early. Colle just couldn't get a move in this one, poor guy.

[ChessNetwork]

I a fan of Capa's play as well. Colle was on his heels early.

[oddle29922992]

I'm not too familiar with the english opening, it looks good though, could you make a video getting more into that?

[michaeljimpogi23]

i love your videos^^keep uploading more

[ChessNetwork]

I hope to do just that. :)

[michaeljimpogi23]

your videos are the best^^Jerry,please challenge me on facebook^^

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks MJ.

[GrandElemental]

Not only instructive but also very entertaining to watch! Thanks so much but posting, ChessNetwork!

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks for your consistant comments GrandE. :)

[jessicafischerqueen]

I love the Chess Network Ok? Shoot me.

[ChessNetwork]

It's okay to love JFQ. :)

[freeagentfreek]

that was awesome. great analysis! Thanx for posting these!

[ChessNetwork]

Your welcome FAF.

[skinnyjohnsen]

Just a few sound moves and black resigns. The great guys make it look easy.

[ChessNetwork]

I agree SJ.

[GoldenJoe]

Wasn't Capablanca the "Machine" that was really just a box with the real life Oz working some levers inside?

[ChessNetwork]

Ya know, I don't know. :)

[arthas702]

cool video!

[ChessNetwork]

Thx arthas702.

[ddstar]

You teach very good, thanks.

[ChessNetwork]

I appreciate the kind words ddstar. :)

[AndyMH182]

cool video

[ChessNetwork]

Thanks Andy!

[Ch3mG33k]

Cool video. How do you think you would fair in a game against Capablanca?

[ChessNetwork]

At best a draw :)
