⚪️#507 (Strategy-White to Move)
🔸Rubinstein,A

🔸Carlsbad, 1923
39.Qc6!
By exchanging the second pair of rooks and incidentally forcing Black's knight to retreat again to b8, this very strong move completely eliminates any possibility of counterplay and wins at least a pawn.
39...Rxa8 40.Qxa8+ Nb8
Retaining queens on the board loses quickly. Black's distant knight and queen cannot hope to resist against an attack on Black's king by White's powerful queen and bishop.
Black had to play a pawn down in the difficult endgame arising after 40...Qb8 41.Qxb8+ Nxb8 42.Kg4, followed by Kf5, and winning Black's e-pawn.
41.Qd5!
Black suffers from fatal back-rank and light-square weaknesses. White threatens 42 Qf7 with dual threats of mate on e8 or f8 or, via g6 or f5, on h7.
41...Qc7 42.Bf5!+/-
Now White threatens 43 Qe6, followed either by 44.Qe8+ or Qg6.
⚫️#508 (Strategy-Black to Move)
🔸Spielmann,R
🔸Rubinstein,A
🔸Baden-Baden, 1925
16...a5!
Black still has development problems. With this move, he battles to open the a-file to get his rook on a8 into play quickly.
17.Ba3
Black's previous move was also aimed at dissuading 17.Nd4, since after Qa4 he maintains an active pin against b5.
17...axb4
Not now 17...Qa4? because of 18.Ng5! Be8 19.Rab1, and the attack has switched clearly to White.
18.Bxb4 Qf5-/+.
