Capablanca at the age of 12
July 14, 2007This endgame was played by “Capa” when he was a 12 year old kid. Now we know that children can become strong players at young age using all this modern training material and computer databases. But imagine its the year 1901 and a small Cuban boy manages to beat the national champion in a match. That is extraordinary. Have a look at this nice demonstration of endgame technique.
