"The inauguration of the system was far from auspicious, as Reti lost in 36 moves. This was not, however, any fault of the opening, but rather due to a tendency on Reti's part to overpress his attack in the middlegame., where he sacrificed a piece for two pawns and then got desperately short of time."
