The only reason why Reti got into trouble was because he chose 27. >Kt-B3?! Instead of the better move chosen by Fritz 8 27. bxc6! this is what >Alekhine wrote " It is obvious enough that the Rook can't be taken because of >27....QxP+. followed by 28.....KtxP and wins. I would be a little concerned if my Fritz would chose 27.bxc6 because this move loses on spot. 27...Rxg3+ 27...Bf3= is correct.
