Watch Tarrasch's knight in this game as it leaps around the board, forcing a weary Black to resign.

This game shows how to use knight, also how to mantain control of key squares on chessboard. Nice game ad thanks for posting...

He's talking about this game of Capablanca's here. It's Qc3 indeed.

"Strong, but Capablanca found the even-better 11 Qf3, which leads him to a brilliant win over Fonaroff. "

How? His Q is at d4.

Cool. Looked like one of my games though, which is the eerie thing.
