In the
years following his match with Capablanca, Alexander Alekhine
dominated the international Chess scene. He was not satisfied
with winning a tournament by a small margin, but played every
game with a fierce will to win. San Remo 1930, was one of
his greatest triumphs, as he won by a margin of 3 ½ points, and would not agree to
draws even in the final rounds. Here his artful use
of pins reduces Nimzovich, who finished second, to virtual
Zugzwang in only 30 minutes.
