Reading all this I think Capablanca was wise writing a book wich included most
of his lost games. hehe
But it hapened more that a game wich became a draw later on (or even earlier By
diferent players) ended in a win
espacialy if a sacrefice was needed to make this happen.
Vucovich did call this the will to win.
I even could show you  computer computer games where this could happen.
If computers could see or learn this they would become stronger.
