Today we look at the round four game in San Remo between Vidmar and Alekhine. After winning this game, the world champion was off to a 4-0 start.
This is a game that should be required learning material for an serious student who is just starting out.
Alekhine has a nice middlegame position, which he exchanges for an endgame with an outside passed pawn, eventually trading that down into a rook and two vs knight and three ending with all the pawns on the same side of the board.
From here the good doctors technique is quite educational.
Til Next Time,
