Find the complete chess game between Jose Capablanca and Frank Marshall shown in the video in this blog-post - https://chess-teacher.com/capablanca-...

When people debate the greatest chess player of all time, names like Fischer, Kasparov, or Carlsen usually come up first. But José Raúl Capablanca, World Champion from 1921 to 1927, had a style so accurate and effortless that he could easily dominate even in today’s computer-driven chess era.

In this video, GM Igor Smirnov will break down one of Capablanca’s most legendary games — his victory against Frank Marshall’s Marshall Attack in the Ruy Lopez.

Marshall had saved this dangerous opening novelty for 8 years, waiting for the perfect moment to unleash it. But Capablanca’s positional mastery, calm defense, and flawless technique completely dismantled the attack, proving his brilliance and timeless strength.

👉 What you’ll learn in this video:
✅ Why Capablanca’s style is still effective in modern chess
✅ How to defend against sharp gambits like the Marshall Attack
✅ The positional strategies Capablanca used to outclass even the best attackers
✅ Lessons you can apply to your own games to play more confidently and accurately

This game is a masterpiece that shows why Capablanca’s approach to chess is eternal — and why he would still be a force to reckon with if he played today.
