Nov-06-03		fred lennox: Capablanca is not a bishop pair lover. It could be said he's a single bishop lover with a pawn chain or central pawn(s) of opposite color.

Nov-22-05		hellnation: capablanca play sooooo boooooring! tartakower forever!!

Nov-22-05		CapablancaFan: Boring or logical? :-)

Apr-01-07		shoorrk: nobody played more logically than capa! The way he trapped to bishop was incredible.

Dec-04-07		M.D. Wilson: It's games like this that remind me why I love Capablanca so much!

Mar-12-10		jmay: capa's rook moves are programmed in his psyche. its the same way a spider knows to weave his web.

Mar-12-10		ounos: Extremely confident technique, starting by 15. Nb3 and to the very end of the game. Tartakower could very well resign at Nb3 and avoid the torture.
