💠 Reuben Fine
🔹 American chess grandmaster
🔹 Psychologist, University professor, and Chess Author

🔰Reuben Fine was an American chess grandmaster, psychologist, university professor, and author of many books on both chess and psychology. He was one of the strongest chess players in the world from the mid 1930s until his retirement from chess in 1951.

🔘Full name: Reuben Fine
🔘Country: United States
🔘Born: October 11, 1914
🔺New York City
🔘Died: March 26, 1993 (aged 78)
🔺New York City
🔘Title: Grandmaster

🔰 Fine was born in the Bronx to Jacob and Bertha (Nedner) Fine, poor Russian Jews. He was an only child, and raised by his mother alone from the age of two. An uncle taught him chess when he was eight.
Fine's best result was his equal first in the AVRO 1938 chess tournament, one of the strongest tournaments of all time. After the death of world champion Alexander Alekhine in 1946, Fine was one of six players invited to compete for the World Championship in 1948. He declined the invitation, however, and virtually retired from serious competition around that time, although he did play a few events until 1951.

🔰 Fine won five medals (four gold) in three chess Olympiads. Fine won the U.S. Open Chess Championship all seven times he entered (1932, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1939, 1940, 1941). He was the author of several chess books that are still popular today, including important books on the endgame, opening, and middlegame.

Wasting an important tempo.
A complicated situation that needs to the accurate calculation. Nakamura has missed the only winning move:

White's plan is very clear: transferring his king to the e6 or g6-square.
