@jadarite: Clearly, Capablanca had the gift of prognostication, in addition to his chess prowess. 
@OP: Using a game that Capablanca lost to suggest that he was a cheater is probably not the most effective strategy to fulfill that agenda.

Time travellers, not prognostication.
Capablanca used his wooden iTelegraph 5 hidden under his black hat. Notice that this would not be possible in 1936 because back then only white itelegraphs were available on the market.
"..the computer made a typical human mistake.." (Polugaevsky in the early 50's, after playing a team game against the first russian chess computer in the university in Moscow)
Capablanca went to the future in 2013, and then back to his time and made the move after seeing it as as the computer move.

Sadly it was not a Houdini 3 in default settings, it was setted in 1800 elo level, that´s why he lost the game.
In the case that Botvinnik had move 1.e4 we probably would have seen a two knights defense Nd4 variation.

Many think that only recently people cheated using computers. In reality we have proof that also in the past some players were making the same moves a computer would play. Notice "a computer would play" because nowadays a GM wouldn't play those moves. Here we have a very known example, of a famous game, where strangely Deep Fritz12, and Capablanca would play the same wrong moves! Around move 13th Botvinnik plays Pa4, a move which is deeply strategic. Capablanca, and Deep Fritz12 don't understand it, and go for taking the A pawn! Black's moves from 13th to 15th would have been played by the engine too, showing that a case for cheating could be made today.
Enjoy the game!
