World Championship 1927

In the year 1927, the  great non-studying Chess genius  Jose Capablanca lost his world Championship title to the ever-studying Chess genius Dr. Alexander Alekhine. With a record breaking 25 draws, Alekhine won 18.5 - 15.5. It was  the longest world Championship match in the history of Chess.  Although Capablanca was obviously the entitled challenger to the  world Championship, Alekhine refused to play against him again and instead played Bogoljubov and Euwe for the world title.
