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 2 of 2; games 26-44 of 44  Game   Result Moves Year Event/Locale Opening 26. H Pohla vs E Kivioja ½-½ 42 1971 Parnu B00 Uncommon King's Pawn Opening 27. U Tarve vs Keres   ½-½ 42 1971 Parnu C46 Three Knights 28. A Vooremaa vs Bronstein   ½-½ 26 1971 Parnu A04 Reti Opening 29. Bronstein vs Stein   ½-½ 17 1971 Parnu B27 Sicilian 30. E Kivioja vs T Oim   ½-½ 16 1971 Parnu C80 Ruy Lopez, Open 31. Lutikov vs H Karner   ½-½ 56 1971 Parnu E41 Nimzo-Indian 32. Keres vs H Pohla ½-½ 39 1971 Parnu A59 Benko Gambit 33. A Vooremaa vs E Kivioja   ½-½ 20 1971 Parnu A04 Reti Opening 34. H Karner vs Bronstein   ½-½ 31 1971 Parnu E15 Queen's Indian 35. Stein vs Tal ½-½ 52 1971 Parnu D41 Queen's Gambit Declined, Semi-Tarrasch 36. Bronstein vs R Etruk   ½-½ 17 1971 Parnu B09 Pirc, Austrian Attack 37. A Vooremaa vs H Pohla   ½-½ 11 1971 Parnu C69 Ruy Lopez, Exchange, Gligoric Variation 38. H Karner vs E Kivioja   ½-½ 17 1971 Parnu A42 Modern Defense, Averbakh System 39. K Vark vs Lutikov   ½-½ 21 1971 Parnu D55 Queen's Gambit Declined 40. R Etruk vs Tal   ½-½ 42 1971 Parnu A22 English 41. I Nei vs Bronstein   ½-½ 38 1971 Parnu B92 Sicilian, Najdorf, Opocensky Variation 42. Lutikov vs U Tarve   ½-½ 29 1971 Parnu C47 Four Knights 43. H Pohla vs Stein   ½-½ 18 1971 Parnu A07 King's Indian Attack 44. E Kivioja vs R Etruk   ½-½ 10 1971 Parnu B08 Pirc, Classical  page 2 of 2; games 26-44 of 44    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.
