The 1927 World Chess Championship (Capablanca vs Alekhine)

The 1927 World Chess Championship was played between José Raúl Capablanca and Alexander Alekhine, in Buenos Aires from September 16 to November 29, 1927. Alekhine, a Russian, became a naturalised French citizen during the match (on November 5).

The first player to win six games would be World Champion. Some sources suggest the match would have been drawn and replayed if it reached a score of 5-5, but it is unclear whether this was the case.

Alekhine won the Championship, scoring +6−3=25.
