"Geza Stripped"
Teplitz-Schönau (1922), Teplice-Sanov CSR, rd 4, Oct-05
Dutch Defense: Rubinstein Variation (A84) · 0-1
According to Jeff Sonas’ research, Geza Maroczy was the best player in the world during the period of 1905-1906, and was still a top ten player at the time of this game, although he was 52 years old.
An incredible finish. I looked at 28 ... Rxf1+!! but didn't see the power of the move 30 ... Bg4!, the point being 31. Rd2 Bf3 32. Qf1 Qh1#, but White can't stave off mate long after 31 ... Bf3 no matter what he tries. Maroczy tries to wriggle out, but Tartakower keeps the threats coming. In the final position, as Agadmator would say, there is nothing left to be done. On 36. Kg1, there is simply 36 ... Nh1+ winning the queen, and on 37. Kh2 Nxf2 38. Rg1, Black unpins and wins with 38 ... Ng4+ and either 39. Rxg4 Qxg4 with mate next move, 39. Kh3 Qh5+ 40. Kg3 Qh2#, or 39. Kg3 Qxe5+ 40. Kh4 (or 40. Kh3 Qh2#) Qh2+ 41. Kg5 Qh6+ 42. Kf5 Qf6#. That last would be a neat end position with the White king corralled in Black's territory
Cooked puzzle, once again. CG, at least four sensible moves win in this position. In order e5 (-5.5), Qg5 (-5.3), Rf3 (-4.2) and lastly Rxf1+ (-3.7). The concept is somewhat similar among them: play e5 somewhere to bring the bishop in, either sac the rook or anchor it on f3, relocate the queen and pile up on the White king. Lines are specific though, so I'd reconsider it as a puzzle.
28....Rxf1+ which I did pick, follows the rather intuitive 29.Kxf1 (Qxf1 Qh2#) e5 threatening Bh3 and White really has two responses to this: 30.Bg3 Nxg3+ -+ is similar to resigning as now Black has a piece back and the attack's still raging and after 30.Kg1 Bg4 -+ decides swiftly, way too many pieces around the White king.
Rxf1+ is a move I probably play by intuition. Great game by Tartakower but I wouldn't choose Black's 28 as puzzle... as suggestion going forward, check for multiple winning moves and reconsider if there is and the lines distinctive.
