▪️ Fred Reinfeld
▪️ American Chess Master and Writer
♦️ Fred Reinfeld was an American writer on chess and many other subjects. He was also a strong chess master, often among the top ten American players from the early 1930s to the early 1940s, as well as a college chess instructor.
🔸 Born: January 27, 1910, New York City, New York, United States
🔸 Died: May 29, 1964, East Meadow, New York, United States
♦️ Fred Reinfeld, born in New York, was an American master best known as a chess writer. He won the New York State Championship twice (Rome 1931 and Syracuse 1933) and played in several national level tournaments, but gradually abandoned play for writing. He tied for 1st with Sidney Norman Bernstein in the Manhattan Chess Club championship in 1942.
He was ranked sixth in the country, with a rating of 2593, on the first rating list issued by the United States Chess Federation in 1950, after Reuben Fine, Samuel Reshevsky, Alexander Kevitz, Arthur Dake, and Albert Simonson. Chessmetrics ranks him as the 64th best player in the world in March and April 1943. During his playing career, he won tournament games against such eminent players as Reshevsky (twice), Fine, Frank Marshall, and Denker, and drew against world champion Alexander Alekhine.
♦️ Reinfeld was an editor for Chess Review. His first books from the 1930s were geared toward experienced players, but he soon discovered a knack for writing instructional books and compiling quiz collections that appealed to the novice and sold well enough for him to make a living.
♦️ Eventually Reinfeld wrote over 100 books on chess and other topics, though many were repackaged versions of earlier works. However, they helped teach several generations of new players and remain popular today.

📘 24.a6!
A nice temporary pawn sac to ensure that White will be able to use the weakened c5 square for his pieces, rather than having to advance a pawn there. 24...Bxa6 25.Ba5 Rd7 26.cxb5 Nb3+/-

A great decision. Karpov with a pawn sacrifice tries to exploit the weakness of light squares in the black camp. 18.Qxa7 Qc6 19.Qa3 Rc8 and White is completely tied up.
