  tamar: Curious repetition of moves.

Rubinstein must have believed Reti had some tactic with 28...Nb6, to prevent the loss of a piece after 29 Rb1

If 29...c3 30 Bxb5 cxb2 31 Bxa6 Rxa6 32 Rxb2 and White is a pawn up.

I checked with Rybka 3, and it unearthed the possibility of sacking the knight, but it also fails 29...Nxd5 30 exd5 Rab8 31 Kg1 Qa8 31 Qxb5! Rxb5 32 Rxb5 and White's pieces control the position 3.51/18

Jun-10-18  zanzibar: Rubinstein wasn't playing at his best, it seems, during this tournament. Missing Rb1 is only one example.
