Parnu (1971) The tournament was played in Parnu, a coastal resort town in Estonia. Thirty-two per cent of the games were drawn. Of the grandmasters, Bronstein seemed to have the least interest in winning against the tail-enders, as he proposed several short draws. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Stein X 1 ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 1 1 ½ 1 1 ½ 1 10.0 Keres 0 X ½ ½ 1 1 ½ 1 ½ ½ 1 1 1 1 9.5 Tal ½ ½ X ½ 0 ½ 1 ½ 1 1 1 1 1 1 9.5 Bronstein ½ ½ ½ X ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 1 ½ 1 ½ 1 8.5 Karner ½ 0 1 ½ X 1 ½ ½ 1 ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 8.0 Etruk ½ 0 ½ ½ 0 X ½ 1 ½ 1 ½ 1 ½ 1 7.5 Nei 0 ½ 0 ½ ½ ½ X 0 1 ½ 1 ½ ½ 1 6.5 Lutikov 0 0 ½ ½ ½ 0 1 X ½ ½ 1 0 1 ½ 6.0 Tarve 0 ½ 0 0 0 ½ 0 ½ X 1 ½ 1 ½ 1 5.5 Pohla ½ ½ 0 0 ½ 0 ½ ½ 0 X ½ 1 ½ ½ 5.0 Kivioja 0 0 0 ½ ½ ½ 0 0 ½ ½ X ½ ½ 1 4.5 Oim 0 0 0 0 ½ 0 ½ 1 0 0 ½ X 1 ½ 4.0 Vooremaa ½ 0 0 ½ ½ ½ ½ 0 ½ ½ ½ 0 X 0 4.0 Vark 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ½ 0 ½ 0 ½ 1 X 2.5  page 1 of 4; games 1-25 of 91  Game   Result Moves Year Event/Locale Opening 1. Stein vs T Oim   1-0 50 1971 Parnu C98 Ruy Lopez, Closed, Chigorin 2. I Nei vs E Kivioja   1-0 21 1971 Parnu B06 Robatsch 3. H Karner vs H Pohla ½-½ 39 1971 Parnu B51 Sicilian, Canal-Sokolsky (Rossolimo) Attack 4. A Vooremaa vs U Tarve   ½-½ 39 1971 Parnu D34 Queen's Gambit Declined, Tarrasch 5. Lutikov vs Bronstein   ½-½ 24 1971 Parnu B20 Sicilian 6. K Vark vs Tal 0-1 44 1971 Parnu A67 Benoni, Taimanov Variation 7. R Etruk vs Keres 0-1 35 1971 Parnu A15 English 8. U Tarve vs Bronstein   0-1 35 1971 Parnu B25 Sicilian, Closed 9. Tal vs Lutikov ½-½ 24 1971 Parnu E12 Queen's Indian 10. A Vooremaa vs Stein   ½-½ 55 1971 Parnu B04 Alekhine's Defense, Modern 11. Keres vs I Nei   ½-½ 27 1971 Parnu C53 Giuoco Piano 12. H Pohla vs R Etruk   0-1 41 1971 Parnu A41 Queen's Pawn Game (with ...d6) 13. T Oim vs H Karner   ½-½ 47 1971 Parnu E15 Queen's Indian 14. E Kivioja vs K Vark   1-0 31 1971 Parnu C00 French Defense 15. I Nei vs H Pohla   ½-½ 28 1971 Parnu B50 Sicilian 16. Stein vs U Tarve 1-0 33 1971 Parnu D34 Queen's Gambit Declined, Tarrasch 17. R Etruk vs T Oim   1-0 41 1971 Parnu E67 King's Indian, Fianchetto 18. H Karner vs A Vooremaa   ½-½ 37 1971 Parnu D35 Queen's Gambit Declined 19. Lutikov vs E Kivioja   1-0 30 1971 Parnu B07 Pirc 20. Bronstein vs Tal ½-½ 39 1971 Parnu B83 Sicilian 21. K Vark vs Keres 0-1 31 1971 Parnu A85 Dutch, with c4 & Nc3 22. Keres vs Lutikov 1-0 28 1971 Parnu C72 Ruy Lopez, Modern Steinitz Defense, 5.O-O 23. E Kivioja vs Bronstein   ½-½ 24 1971 Parnu B95 Sicilian, Najdorf, 6...e6 24. A Vooremaa vs R Etruk   ½-½ 15 1971 Parnu A41 Queen's Pawn Game (with ...d6) 25. U Tarve vs Tal   0-1 62 1971 Parnu A07 King's Indian Attack  page 1 of 4; games 1-25 of 91    REFINE SEARCH:   White wins (1-0) | Black wins (0-1) | Draws (1/2-1/2)     There is no kibitzing for this page, yet.   NOTE: Create an account today to post replies and access other powerful features which are available only to registered users.
