  OhioChessFan: Brilliant attack. I have to think yes <DB> In looking over the game, I don't understand 8...Rb8 and especially 18...Bc8 Black was constantly a tempo short to defend the d5 Pawn and I think those moves were the culprits.

  offramp: Probably the best game of chess played at Havering.

I played cricket there; a very pretty ground.

<To haver> is a verb. To haver is to speak rubbish.

  al wazir: What's wrong with 18...g6 ? White has to play 19. Nxe7+ Rxe7/Qxe7 or lose the ♘ outright, either way leaving him with nothing much in the way of an attack.
Oct-28-23  Brenin: <al wazir>: I think 19 Nh6+ Kg7 20 Qg4 and 21 f5 is the answer.

  An Englishman: Good Evening: Rinder ranked among the best women chess players in the mid-20th Century, but plays this game as if she had never seen the Closed Sicilian. 8...Rb8 makes sense, but not playing ...b7-b5 does not. 17...Bf8 seems more logical; why else play 16...Re8?
Oct-28-23  goodevans: I don't know for certain about <Elfriede Rinder> but the surname <'Rinder'> is usually pronounced to rhyme with <'cinder'> (e.g. Judge Rinder, a British TV celebrity). That would put a bit of a downer on the pun.
Oct-28-23  goodevans: Like <OCF>, I didn't understand 18...Bc8 and he's right that defending d5 was important. But Black could have reversed that decision and put the B back on b7. <22...Bb7> may have wasted a couple of tempi but it would have rendered the R on e5 impotent.

<22...Nc6?> was a double whammy, inviting the exchange sac and walking into a horrible fork when White's B recaptures. I finger that move as the main culprit.

She had seen it, having played it the day before against R.M. Bruce. E Rinder vs R M Bruce, 1967. That's Rowena Mary Bruce, not to be confused with her husband Ronald MacKay Bruce, who famously lost tournament games to world champion Alekhine and women's world champion Menchik on the same day at Plymouth 1938. Alekhine vs R Bruce, 1938. Nor with their daughter Rona Mary, who had no interest in the game. https://britishchessnews.com/2020/0...
