Capa is viewed by many as the most naturally talented player of all time. Compare to his fellow masters, Capa does not work as hard training at chess.

Anatoly Karpov. Look up his Light Key Simphony Game.

I'm not here to debate as I think it would be big waste of time, especially on this topic. Just here to express my opinion and move on. Have a nice day, folks.
