Dec-16-03		Chessical: Rubinstein plays a passive defence and Spielmann whips up a sustained K-side attack. Spielman’s energetic play is both enjoyable and an object lesson in K-side attack for Italian Game or Spanish K-side attacking strategy. 35...Nf6?!; 35...Rxg6 36.Rxg6+ Rg7 would keep Black fighting on. 36...Nh7 is better but no salvation; 37.Rxg7+ Rxg7 38.Rxg7+ Qxg7 39.Qe6+ Qf7 40.Qxe5 Nf6. 37.Rh5 Rf8 38.Qh7+ Kf7 39.Rxg7+ Ke6 40.Rxe7+ Kd5 41.Rhxe5+ Kd6 42.R(7)e6 mate.
