Jun-02-13  Karpova: Reti annotates this game on page 317 of the 1923 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung' (his analysis originally appeared in the 'Deutschen Tageszeitung Bohemia') and I hoped that this would clarify the matter with regards to the game score - did it end after 27.d4 as given here or after 27...Bf6 28.d5 as posted above?

The answer: Reti gives the game as ending after 22.dxe6 (!)
