Havana (1965)
The 4th Capablanca Memorial International Chess Tournament was held in the capital city of Havana in Cuba. Eighteen grandmasters and six masters participated in the round-robin event at the Habana Libre hotel from August 25 to September 26, 1965. It was one of the best-funded tournaments at the time, due to Ché Guevara’s patronage. As the director of the Cuban National Bank and Minister of Industry, he guaranteed a $3000 first prize with more than $4500 to be dispersed among the next five finishers. This edition of the memorial gained worldwide significance because it was the first international tournament in which Bobby Fischer would be participating since the Curacao Candidates (1962), more than three years before. He had agreed to attend for a $3000 appearance fee, but difficulties arose when the US State Department refused him a visa to travel to Cuba. When Fischer suggested playing by telex from the Marshall Chess Club, the organizers agreed although it would end up costing them over $10,000. Although Fischer had been playing regularly in US championships in the intervening three years (and winning them all), this tournament would mark the first time Fischer would be facing a number of the strongest Soviet grandmasters since his accusations against them for conspiring to keep him from winning the Candidates Tournament to challenge Botvinnik in 1963. Fischer’s main Soviet rivals at this event were former world champion Vasily Smyslov, Efim Geller and Ratmir Kholmov.

Borislav Ivkov led for most of the tournament, but suffered a tragic collapse at the end. In the penultimate round, with a won game against the tailender Garcia, he blundered and had to resign. In the last round, with White against Robatsch, he played for a win, but lost again. This enabled Smyslov to finish first by one-half point, despite losing to Fischer in their individual game. Fischer shared second place with Geller and Ivkov. Kholmov joined the top finishers in fifth place.

    Is no one going to address that Antonio recommends watching a video on Twitter with sex trafficker, rapist Andrew Tate and the facist racist Tucker Carlson.
    I followed this chess account before he had 50k followers and liked that he stayed out of politics online. Unfollowing one of the best chess commentators. Sad day.

    Shit. Show more womens matches, thwy are way better than this crap

    Such a great game, one of the most exciting YouTube series

    #suggestion clarify your position on Andrew Tate, the admitted sex trafficker, and what is great about his interview w Tucker Carlson, POS

    It´s insane to see how far ahead Fischer could not only calculate tactics but see general positions and how to maneuver them perfectly!
    Fischer is by far my favourite player and in my eyes also the best and most dominant player of all times!

    To all the political activists of comment section,
    Just go away man, it's not an airport and no need to announce the departure.

    so… before i spent another second here – are you a Tucker Carlson/Andrew Tate supporter?

    Unsubscribing after your promotion of that rapist and human trafficker on twitter. If the incel weirdo misogynists who follow Tate want to follow you and support you for planting a flag on their side of the idiotic culture war (which is just an excuse to be sexiest, racist, homophobic, xenophobic) then I quite simply won’t be here. Ciao.

    Wonderful game…what is your favorite style of chess set? Anyone? I just bought a beautiful blue/white set from Poland with the Christian cross from ETSY…

    I am deeply disappointed that agadmator's Chess Channel would retweet a Tweet by Tucker Carlson that references "Ep. 9 The Andrew Tate Interview". I have previously donated $$ to this channel. I will unsubscribe immediately if any similar posts are made on any social media. You can do better.

    Agamator you should also include the elo of the players

    what if Bobby Fischer lived in this era with stockfish on his computer? i can't imagine it

    the real question is why nobody else did it! it's because they have been taught it's not possible. He was also very good. Maybe Sun's CP3 back in the days could have pierced a bit with his Claw

    6:50 you have sufficient control but not enough ~agadmator

    After years of watching agadmator, this is the last video I see from him. His support to human trafficker, pornographer, rapist and scam artist Andrew tate is too much.

    Idk but fischers games are just different from other players

    Agad is it just me or has your volume dropped a few bars lately?

    smashing out games like this pre engine times??

    That suit in in the thumbnail is SO cool.

    Fischer would decimate Magnus – then crush his girly hand, then laugh at him, then mock him, then walk away.

    No one ever managed to play like Fischer. Difficult style to copy.

    The amount of patience involved in not playing e6 right away is nuts. Such a natural move.

    Give him a desk, chair, computer and a year. Bobby could play with anyone today.

    Love that you are continuing the Bobby Fischer saga. Keep going!

    calls Fisher "also very strong player" while playing like engine 50-60y before the engines :D.

    Agad wtf did you do sharing extreme right stuff, I’ve been watching you for a while but I’m out

    This is the famous game where Szabo had sufficient control over the e5 square but did not have enough control. A rare instance when what is sufficient is still not enough. (6:55)

    Watching Fischers games they always seems so Impressive works of art and sheer Genius I know many people say Magnus is the goat but it seems like Fischers games are just that much more impressive and artistic than Magnus games Magnus seems to win his games against everyone he plays because he makes the better moves and less mistakes thumbs up to Fischer though definitely a step ahead of everyone else in his hey day
