9-14 22-18; 5-9 24-19; 11-15 18-11; 8-24 28-19; 4-8 26-22; 8-11 27-24; 1-5 22-18; 9-13 18-9; 5-14 25-22; 11-15 32-28; 7-11 24-20; 15-24 28-19; 11-15 22-18; 15-22 30-25; 22-26 31-22; 13-17 22-13; 2-7 20-16! (A); 3-8 ...
A: The only way out for White, and a beautiful way, because, with the man on 3, 25-22 loses softly to 14-17
9-13 24-19; 11-15 28-24; 6-9 23-18; 1-6 18-11; 7-23 26-19; 8-11 24-20; 3-7 27-23; 11-15 32-28; 15-24 28-19; 7-11 22-18; 9-14 18-9; 5-14 25-22 (In CC I wrongly gave the transposition as being HERE: but in the first ballot the man is on square 3 which is stronger for Black); 11-15 22-18; 15-22 30-25; 22-26 31-22; 13-17 22-13; 2-7 and now White has draws with 25-22 (Case v Rubin 1930) or the 23-18 pitch OR 20-16; 4-8 SAME AS ABOVE
Interesting transposition!
