A GRANDMASTER WHO HAD 40 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND WROTE MORE THAN 40 INSTRUCTIONAL MANUALS WAS ONCE CHECKMATED IN 11 MOVES.
Well blow me down thats unbelievable- a gm like tartakower going down like that, ill have to remember that: open d file, set up a discovered check with black bishop and kingside rook after castle, lure out pieces with an endearing pawn and knight sacrifice, sacrifice queen and BAM-YA LIKE THAT?!?
I gotta look up some of this Reti guy's other games, if they're half as cheeky as this one...
No, because 8... Qxe4 is met with 9. Re1.
So...if he would have taken the knight with the queen would this have been an easy victory?
that's just crazy...
nice game. very interesting
