Qc7, he gave away huge advantage to white. I'm not saying that Alekhine was not a skilled player. Not at all but reason for Capa's loss in 1927 has less to do with how good Alekhine was and more to do with how under prepared Capablanca was. Alekhine himself said that reason for Capablanca's defeat was his underestimation of my talent. That's why Alekhine never gave Capablanca a rematch. He instead played World Championships against players like Bogoljubov and Euwe and gave them rematches knowing they cannot beat him.

Talent isn't inherent it's developed. Not to say some are better at some things, but that's only initially, after a certain point expertise comes by work, not talent. So you can't exactly say how much talent is wasted because because of someone's circumstances, because the same circumstances wouldve also helped create the said talent.

Sultan Khan was one of those naturally gifted chess players, a rarity, who didn't study chess, but just had a gift for it, in the same league as Paul Morphy, and Jose Capablanca. .

After watching this, I played a game where castling just didn’t seem right, so I moved my king up behind my center. I would not have thought to do that had I not seen this video! Ended up winning the game. Awesome content!

Hey, Levy! I’m a huge fan. I just recently started playing chess in November and with your help I’ve reached 1200 already. I love your content! I was wondering if you could do a video on KZread where you talk about your favorite chess books that talk about the openings, middlegames and endgames (I’m reading your suggestion: 100 Endgames You Must Know by Jesús de la Villa). And if you could talk about how to study chess, that would be amazing! Greetings from Mexico City!

Love the bio of chess players through there games. This would make a nice little series. And we new players get to see how masters of the game player and learn in the process. Never heard of the guy before but your video makes me want to look him up.

SULTAN KHAN Born: March 13, 1903, Khushab , punjab , Pakistan Died: April 25, 1966, Punjab , Pakistan

Levy, this is my first comment on KZread. You sparked a love for chess in me through these fascinating videos and I just want to say thank you. You're truly passionate about your craft and it shows. I really have a great respect for the grind that you put into what you love. Wishing much luck to you from the NYC neighbor to the north, Westchester.

03:31 will be forever for me "Delayed bongcloud, Sultan Khan variation".

I really love watching your video analysis and sometimes can't hold from really asking my observation analysis too. :)

Brilliant stuff, thanks Gotham. I'd vaguely heard of the legendary Sultan..

7:52 DR DRUNKENSTEIN

you've taken chess videos to a whole new level... not only educational but inspiring, entertaining and funny all at the same time

I would like to see more of his games, his style is unorthodox and unique.

This was really dope…. Thank you for what you do for the chess community!

15:35 the ducks in the park when I give them bred

The narration is great man had me dialed the whole video

Great video. Helped me to clear my mind and decide how to learn this game. Thank you for letting us know about this person.

I already knew it was gonna be Sultan Khan when i saw the title. Man was amazing. What a legend

That Khan vs Marshall game is one of the greatest I have ever seen.

True. What deep thinking defense!

Hey, I suck at chess but love your videos. Super interesting and informative even for smooth brain noobs like myself. Loving the history lessons and breakdowns of these games didn't know history and chess could be actually fun and entertaining.

Really enjoy your content Levy :) Thanks for the hard work.

As a Pakistani, this is incredible and so inspiring to hear to about. Thank you for teaching us about this man :)

I find it important to add that the best chess player in human history most likely never became known. Such a pity how differences in the world have an effect on literally everything, even chess.

depends on your definition of 'the best'. Like, if you just think about potential, you are just by default right, statistically speaking, but if you talk about actual chess strength, you just can't forget about how much theory a person had at their disposal, so that just HAS TO be Carlsen, even tho I really am not happy with that ;

It isn't possible. The best chess player would have had to spend his childhood playing tournaments and with that collective experience defeat the other contenders for the champion throne. Although your point is true for a chess player who had world class potential but could not get into chess for different reasons

I love how excited you get talking about these games!

This was such enjoyable and interesting commentary!

Levy you should do a series of analysing "old school" players games and talking about their lives etc.. I'd love to see Mikhail Tal!!

Great video Levy. Good chess, good stories, interesting characters. Well done.

Watched that entire video. Thank you for sharing.

That final game against Capablanca was incredible

I am absolutely fascinated by how Frank Marshall plays. I don't know about him before I watched this video but ohhhh man! Sultan Khan is on a different level.

This guys games are S-tier. I love Khan and Nezhmetdinov. Two of the guys who could hang with GMs and had great style in their games.

Really interesting video. Absolutely loved it !

Levy, you inspired me to make videos. Not directly, you just made me realize that I'm bad at chess and desperately need a new hobby.

Hey Gotham, you should make a Playlist where you go over iconic chess games and brilliant players. For example, you've made a video about the Sherlock v. Moriarty game but I don't believe it's on any Playlist so it's hard to find. Also you just did this video and the other day you went over Kasparov v world which would qualify as well.

Man! That was a great video❤️

'capablanca knew how to put pieces on squares' I think we all do, Levy.
