  FSR: Cool game. I love how effortlessly Reshevsky brushes aside Black's attempts at counterplay.
Mar-05-25  mginsburg: What looks so smooth is actually not really, engines rudely point out black is better on move 12 or 13. On move 12, just play ...a5 right away. Same thing on move 13. Slightly different ideas, on move 12 we have the idea 12...a5! 13 Rb1 axb4 14 axb4 Bxf4! 15 exf4 Nb6! ⩱

On move 13 it is 13...a5 14 Rb1 axb4 15 axb4 Bc7! setting up annoying Qd6 battery, again ⩱. Black fell asleep at the wheel playing "routine" moves that were second best at this juncture. Par for the course at Lone Pine where good games were few and far between for me.
