Hypermodern Chess
Hypermodern Chess was a new school of chess thought which promoted control of the center with distant pieces rather than the classical way (with pawns). The argument was that if you advance pawns too early, they would become objects of attack.
Leading proponents of the Hypermodern chess were Nimzowitsch, Reti, Tartakower and Breyer. The following famous game served to popularize Hypermodern chess enormously.
Reti – Capablanca
