In this entertaining game, Rubinstein sacrifices his queen early on-for the sake for winning a pawn. But he hastens to return it in order to go into a rook ending with an advantage, which he nicely converts.
anyway, tnx 4 the post
"The Passed pawn is a criminal that must be kept under lock and key. Mere police surveillance is not enough."
-Aron Neimzowitsch
"Restrain. Blockade. Destroy."
-Aron Nimzovich
"The passed pawn is a viscous con-man who has swindled many a better player than yourself. The debate about how to deal with these criminals is fierce; the eminent Nimzovich advocating for their immediate destruction, though the honorable Neimzowitsch said that imprisonment is sufficient. There are of course, those foolish patzers who think Police Surveillance is enough."
-Brendan Martin
