The same theme is explored at fantastic length in E.Z. Adams-C. Torre, New Orleans 1920, which is one of the most brilliant games ever — if it truly happened. The reader is encouraged to look it up — the back-rank combination is extraordinary.

Two of Capablanca’s most famous games feature back-rank checkmating ideas.

Game 30

New York 1918

White: J.R. Capablanca

Black: Marc Fonaroff

Ruy López

It’s the conclusion of this game that represents Capablanca most often in combination anthologies , while the game as a whole is Capablanca’s best-known miniature. Players form an impression of Capablanca that many of his games must be this spectacular — the same is true of Morphy and his brilliancies — but it isn’t so. Both cultivated their gems in proper positional play: achieving better center control, development, and king safety while using inactive force and examining threats.
