May-24-09  blacksburg: 29.Na8, what a weird looking move.
and then to defend the a8 knight indirectly with 34.Bg2, very interesting tactics in this game.
Nov-04-10  tentsewang: A superb art of chess, very accurately played by the legendary Jose Capablanca. It is always a delight to study his games and that of many others like Morphy, Fischer & so on of the ages.

  NM JRousselle: Why does Black resign? There are certainly drawing chances.
Dec-17-12  ghardy1988: Perhaps it's too fearful to play a human endgame machine like Capa with one pawn down
Dec-17-12  fokers13: White will get at least 2 passed pawns on the queenside while black's weak doubled one are less than useless.

Best he can hope for is a slow death really.

And yeah Opposite Bishops doesn't equal draw,at least not always.

Jan-03-16  TheFocus: From a simultaneous exhibition in London, England on April 10, 1929.

Capablanca scored +40=0-0.
