Réti has a healthy win/loss/draw percentage, but his games have a large number of very aesthetic finishes. Problem-like or study-like finishes contain a lot of fun or educational endings.

In this game Mr Reca played <va banque>, he put all or nothing on the move 30. Rc7...

Mr Reca threatens 31. Rxg7+(+-), the rook at g7 would then stop many possible checkmates by Réti.

Black ends the game with a pure mate, as mentioned by User: King Harvest.

User: WTHarvey also pointed out the interesting checkmate.
