I look at the position after a possible 13.Bc1 Rf7 14.d5 Ne5:

00:03:00.7	0,37	12	28825763	dxe6 Qxe6 Ne3 g6 Ned5 Bf8 Nxf6+ Qxf6 Nd5 Qe6 b4 Bg7
00:04:42.1	0,39	12	43891773	Ne3 exd5 Nxf5 dxc4 Bxh6 gxh6 Nxh6+ Kf8 Nxf7 Nxf7 f4
c6
00:09:55.0	0,46	13	98048320	Ne3 exd5 Nxf5 dxc4 Bxh6 Bf8

Or after 13.Bc1 Rf7 14.d5 Ne5 15.dxe6 Qxe6 16.Ne3:


[D]r5k1/p1p1brp1/1p1pqn1p/4np2/2P5/2N1N1P1/PPQ1PP1P/2BR1RK1 b - - 1 1

00:05:28.5	-0,39	12	51926047	g6 Ned5 Bf8 Nb5 Nxd5 cxd5 Qc8 Be3

Still pressure from White but not yet a won position.
14.f4 as Rubinstein payed it can of course prevent Ne5. But is Spielmann's
14...Qb7 the best move? After first calculations Pro Deo S&D 6_7e3 does not see
much advantage for White after 14...c7-c5 or 14...c7-c6, but it hasn't gone very
deep right now as yet. Interesting position though!

13.Bc1 Rf7 14.f4:

[D]r1q3k1/p1pnbrp1/1p1ppn1p/5p2/2PP1P2/2N3P1/PPQ1P1NP/2BR1RK1 b - f3 0 1
