    The St Petersburg Tournament of 1914 featured the joint winners of the 1914 All Russian Championship and players who had won at least one major tournament. There were the veterans Blackburne and Gunsberg, established masters such as Tarrasch, Bernstein, Janowski, Nimzowitsch, Alekhine and Marshall as well as the World Champion Lasker and his two most prominent rivals, Rubinstein and Capablanca.
    The tournament was divided into two sections. The first stage from the 21st April to the 6th of May was an all-play-all event with the first five finishers proceeding into the second stage which ran from the 10th to the 22nd of May. This second stage was a double round all-play-all with the scores from the preliminaries being carried over to the final.
    Prizes amounted to 1200, 800, 500, 300 and 200 Rubles. Each non-prizewinner received 20 Rubles for every game won and 10 Rubles for every drawn game.
    A brilliancy prize was being considered for Nimzowitsch vs Tarrasch, 1914 after the 5th round's finish, but more than 2 rounds later, it was awarded a 2nd brilliancy prize as the runner-up to the Capablanca vs O Bernstein, 1914 coup.
    The main source for this collection was the St. Petersburg 1914 International Chess Tournament book by Dr Siegbert Tarrasch. ISBN 0-939433-17-6.

      @droceretik Před 5 lety +5

      @@matthaeus7762 It is a fallacy that Capablanca new little opening theory. He is reported as saying that he was lazy to study openings but his intuitive sense of pawn structure and piece development more than compensated for his relative minor deficit in named opening theory. But he was able to successfully negotiate and win openings against the greatest player of his era. As humans I think we can learn a lot from every aspect of Casablanca's play. Even current GM's say they have studied Casablanca's games extensively to understand chess better. Rather than Casablanca lecturing players on textbook theory he demonstrated his profound understanding of openings in his play. We only have to watch and we will learn. Bobby Fischer was a big fan as well as many other GM's of the last 60 years. If he were weak in openings then he would rarely make it past the 30th move. That is not the case. We can all learn by observation rather than repeating pithy hearsay.

    • @salmarwow
      @salmarwow Před 5 lety +2

      Most of top players at the time considered Sicilian to be a dubious opening. This includes Morphy, Steinitz, even Capablanca himself. The general idea was that it's too defensive, and black gives up on center too easily. It was sometime between 40s and 50s when popularity of Sicilian increased (blame people like Najdorf for that, who contributed a lot to the opening theory). People realized that more often than not black has good chances to break in the center and have quite an aggressive play.

      Should the player be hit with a truncheon for making a legal move that you don't understand? They were GM's and I assume they had some chess playing ability.

      Do you have any constructive or interesting observations about the chess game?

    I'm bored of Capablanca winning. I want to see games when he is old and fat and losing, lol

      Well, you'll be happy the rest of this tournament.

      Nobody can win on CZcams with all viewers. If you don't win much your a loser, if you win too much someone is bored. What is the precise win loss ratio that will keep you entertained? You would probably be unhappy with this as it would be too balanced.
