I'm here in 2024 and I can't say enough how much I appreciate your content. I've been able to develop greatly as a novice player with these analyses. Thank you for your documentation and effort with these videos. I will continue to study them and learn.
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."
I really like the narration and commentary in these videos. It seems to fall perfectly in line with the way I think about chess. I've finally found a second chess channel to complement mato.😉
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. :-)
Amazing analysis, i've said it before, your blitz videos are tons of fun but i think a lot of the other fans would agree that these are far more instructive, peace.
Since I started getting interested in chess, I have a seen only a few videos on the legendary Capablanca, none of which he actually won. Thanks for showing me one where he does :)
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" :))
@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
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.
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.)
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?
if rook to f8 then you lose the protection it gave the pawn, so Qxd6 will probably follow. then the knight is being attacked by a ton of sources essentially giving white a free move (and that pawn)
@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
Why didn't Capablanca go for the dark squared bishop exchange at some point in the opening, considering he had set up his queen and bishop accordingly? This is an exchange I almost always go for against a fianchettoed bishop around the opponents king. Needless to say, I don't always win those games, so if you could give some insight on why Capablanca didn't go for that exchange I'd be very grateful.
3:45 curious why not Ng4 anyway? It unveils a threat at the queen and allows a forced knight for bishop exchange in favor of black. White has to react to the queen threat, and because of the double wouldn't be able to save the bishop
Why at 5:20 you say that we can consider the piece unprotected because there is one attacker and one defender, when if black captures the pawn, white captures bishop and wins 2 points ?
'Unprotected' declares the fact that the number of attackers and defenders is equal. So if you attack it with one more piece, the opponent usually has to react. The point of 'unprotected' isn't that you can capture that piece. But that it may be worth it to generate more pressure on it.
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
A very good game to show! White positionally dominates black and eventually uses his greater space to start picking his opponents weaknesses apart. *Capablanca was one of the first historical chess players I read about, and I always thought the 'machine' part was just about him winning or drawing so much, and not losing... now I'm not so sure. ;}
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.
Its a shame u dont do these type of videos any more...I really love them!
Please consider doing some again.
Thanks.

Thank you 👍
Your commentary and explainations are crystal clear. Thank you, and as always, I look forward to your next video.
Your videos are excellent. I just came across them today, but I am an immediate subscriber. Thanks for the insightful commentary.
Learning there is more than one type of "unprotected" piece will advance my game! Thanks!
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."
Not only instructive but also very entertaining to watch! Thanks so much but posting, ChessNetwork!
In addition to the other remarks, thank you for making it look great in fullscreen ;)
your chess analysis is the best. love these historic games!
Great work as usual, I always enjoy watching your commentaries.
I misread the title as Capablanca vs. Cole and burst out laughing.
"The world's best chess player of his time vs.... Cole. From down the street."
haha thanks for the laugh haha
Well paced and very clear. Combination of Capablanca's lucid play and Jerry's commentary makes Chess seem easy!
Nice job Jerry. I always enjoy your analysis on the great Grandmasters games. I really like your live blitz games also.
Thanks for the feedback. :)
That's cool , never saw a good commentary like this! Subbed and 5 Stars.
I really like the narration and commentary in these videos. It seems to fall perfectly in line with the way I think about chess. I've finally found a second chess channel to complement mato.😉
Mato just clicks on moves and every 10 moves or so he gives some obvious lines briefly. Jerry is much more instructive
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. :-)
Thanks Andy!
An excellent and engaging lecture, very clear and accessible. Thank you.
Thanks VWV. :)

Thanks for your consistant comments GrandE. :)
I agree SJ.
@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
As a chess player, I enjoyed the video and excellent observations. Thank you, great job! Thank you for promoting chess!
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.
very clear and helpful tuition-Capablanca being one of my heroes adds even more to this-thanks
whats next
Mr.Jerry, I really enjoy your Chess commentry.. it is the best...
i love your videos^^keep uploading more
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.)
As always well done. Thanks
Is this video really better in full screen compared to other videos of mine in full screen?
Creative as usual. Thanks Jerry
nice! looking forward to the next!
I a fan of Capa's play as well. Colle was on his heels early.
Thanks BB. :)
excellent insights thank you for posting
Thanks mmiskolc :)
Good, better, Chessnetwork!
wonderful commentary

Awesome video and game!
Great work.

Cool. I appreciate the feedback. :)
the audio transcript thought that "jose raul capablanca" was "ho several couple block" lol
@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
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.
at the end after Kxf7 it's better Qh7+... if Kf8 then Ah6+, Ke8, Re1+, Ne4, Rxe4# and if Ke8 well then Qe7#
nice video!! what chess program are you using in these videos?

@slmouradian
fantastic analysis. Thank you very much!
The CC has a ways to go still. :)

You teach very good, thanks.
Thanks alaingoldman. :)
The fullscreen board just looks better, in my opinion. I like seeing the board as large a s possible :)
Awesome chess set :D
This is one of Capa's games when he played the strongest possible moves only.
love the videos
I hope to do just that. :)
Cool video. How do you think you would fair in a game against Capablanca?
He was a brilliant man. You're welcome NottinghamE. :)
You are a hero
Thanks redchopin. :)
very interesting, thanks. will give me confidence to try the english!
You're welcome happyT. :)
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
@ggdelgado Thanks. View a current video for a new mic. :)
Thanks slmouradian. :)
Thanks NordicSpirit. :)
5:20 never thought about it that way

Thanks,very good.
awesome videos
It's okay to love JFQ. :)
I dont watch your videos, I just like to listen to your voice.
i love you man, much love from holland, amsterdam :P
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.
nice video Jerry
Era una aplanadora ese Capablanca
@almoghh maybe because if it is attacked once again,you'll have to defend again
Ya know, I don't know. :)
I think there are others wishing similar. :)
in 12:59 why not rook on f8?
hey man that was great commentary/lecture. thanks.
My kunfu is strong how is yours?
Only a dozen? :)
