My favorite chess player was Jose Raul Capablanca. He made the game of chess look so easy. I have learned alot by playing over thousand of Capablanca's games.

Over thousand? Wow that's impressive, most databases I've found only have around 730 games, and that's including casual and odds games.

I guess i should have been more clear. Sorry, alot of those games were repeat games Ive went over. Like his 100 Best Games, I think ive went through that book at least three times, lol. I know ive played through every game i could find of his. So i should have said, ive played over Capablanca's games thousands of times considering i started when i was fourteen and am now 52. And yes, i have also studied others but am more into the old masters.
