| Sep-12-03 | | ksadler: Another game with great positional play, sacrifices and combinations by Capablanca. Most of us can only dream of getting a position as Black like Capablanca did after 14.  g1. |
 |
| Dec-17-04 | | Whitehat1963: I definitely don't understand the sacrifices in this game, (a game that features the opening of the day). I can't see the dangers. (Still, you have to love 21... Rxe6.) Someone help. |

| Dec-17-04 | | Saruman: 38.Ke3 Qxg3+ 39.Ke2 (Kd2 Nc4+ and Qxd6)Bf3+ 40.Kd2 Nc4+ 41.Bxc4 Qxd6(  ). |
|
| Dec-17-04 | | Whitehat1963: But, for instance, why not 28. gxf4? |

 | | Chessical: <Whitehat1963> Your move may be better than Corzo's, but it still leaves him with an inferior ending: <28.gxf4> gxf4+ 29.Kf2 fxe3+ 30.Kxe3 Bxh1 31.Kxd2 Rg1 32.Bh3 Rxe1 33.Kxe1 d5 34.cxd5 Bxd5 <30.c5?> loses quickly. |

| Jul-08-05 | | THE pawn: why did he play 11.kf2? |
|
| Jul-08-05 | | Anastasia: <the pawn> 11.0-0-0 Bg7 12.qxg7 qxe3+ looks dangerous cool game, 20.ne6 looked good until 21..rxe6 |

| Jan-28-10 | | Rama: 10. ... g6!, offers the rook: 11. Qxh8 Qxe3+, 12. Kd1 Nd3!, 13. Bxd3 Bxd3, 14. Qc3 Bg7!, winning. 15. ... g5!, seeks to break the annoying pin on the e-file decisively: 16. fxg5 Be5!, 17. Bxe5 dxe5, and the pin is broken. Black will regain the pawn, control the open g-file and obtain a mobile center pawn. It would be unwise for white to try to defend the g-pawn with 18. h4. :) The fight continues to swirl around the black g-pawn with 27. ... Nd2!, since 28. gxf4 gxf4+! wins as above. Capa owed a lot to that infantryman. |

 | | sevenseaman: A positional delight, is the appropriate description. Capa often creates very complex positions but this is like kindergarten. <Whitehat> at 47 you may have already found the clarity. |

| Aug-28-12 | | master of defence: Why not 11.Qxh8? |

 | | TheFocus: <master of defence>< Why not 11.Qxh8?> 11. Qxh8 Qxe3+ 12. Kd1 Ne4 and mate after 13. Nf2+.
Or, 11.Qxh8 Qxe3+ 12.Be2 Bd3 13.Kf1 Qxe2+ 14.Kg1 Qe3 mate. |
