| Jul-20-07 | | climberv151: bass is also a type of ale, and apparently England's oldest registered trademark (that is still in use). Why does it say this is Bird's Opening? |

Bird Bird Bird, Bird is deferred..."
Of course, when your name is Emanuel Rubinstein you can call the opening anything you wish. It's sort of like being Robert J. Kasparov. |

A fishy game..... |

 | | kevin86: A funny Bird's opening-when the opening move is deferred to the 21st turn (or is that "tern"?) I liked the fancy setup of bPpB after white's 27th.
I think black would have objected to the name of the opening (or even the game result),but he was a small mouthed bass. As a result,he was Lance-d (I hope that pun was NSYNC)-lol. |

 | | Bishoprick: I believe Rubenstein moved to Belgium soon after this game. Probably should have moved even farther. . . |

 | | fm avari viraf: A wonderful game by Rubinstein right from the start go till the very end. The beautiful piece play & pawn thrust is a treat to relish & of course, a valuable lesson to learn & digest. |

 | | dabearsrock1010: By the way, and I am surprised nobody has pointed this out, Bass Ale is an absolutely delightful beer, probably in my top 3 at this point in my life. oh good game too i guess. |

| Jul-20-07 | | Calculon: Black's problems seem to begin with the loss of the b-pawn. Would he be able to hold his position with 17 ... O-O-O? He pins the bishop and moves the king to b8 after a check. |

Rather not. Rubinstein seemed to have gone to Ukraine and it's not known if he survived the war.
But I guess you confuse him with Akiba Rubinstein |
