When the great José Raúl Capablanca has some thoughts to share regarding a specific type of pawn structure, we all do best to pay attention very closely. It is in the case of the hanging pawns structure Capablanca expresses his rationale. An older train of thought would deem Capablanca’s move poor due to its multiple negative consequences. The “Chess Machine” however adds invaluable insight to his move that would ultimately impact the mindset of future Grandmasters. The game, played in 1914, features Capablanca with black against Ossip Bernstein.
