first game of the rematch Alekhine decided to play the position again, this
time with Black. But once again he found himself one move behind Euwe's
preparation! [#] Im Rückkampf zwei Jahre später spielt Aljechin in der
allerersten Partie wieder die gleiche Variante, diesmal mit Schwarz. Und
wieder mußte er feststellen, daß er einen Zug hinter der häuslichen
Vorbereitung Euwes zurückgeblieben war!} 14. Ne4 $1 {Keeping up the tension
and posting the knight on a marvelous square. Hält die Spannung auf der weißen
Seite aufrecht und bringt gleichzeitig den Springer auf ein ideales Feld.} Bb4
15. a5 {With the knight on c4 this pawn is protected and a7-a6 makes little
sense. Mit dem Springer auf c4 ist der Bauer verteidigt, so daß a7-a6 keinen
großen Sinn mehr macht.} O-O 16. a6 {weakening Black's queenside and at the
same time improving the perspectives of the bishop on g2. Schwächt den
schwarzen Damenflügel, während gleichzeitig der weiße Läufer auf g2 voll zur
Geltung kommt.} bxa6 $2 {A syndrome of the first match - facing an unpleasant
turn of the game Alekhine loses his temper and reacts very nervously.
Symptomatisch für den ersten Wettkampf – angesichts einer ungünstigen Wendung
in der Partie verliert Aljechin seiner Kontenance und reagiert übermäßig
gereizt.} (16... b6 {was the natural response, because the direct war eine

easily, organizing his passed pawns on the kingside. An impressive though
one-sided opening duel! As a result both players switched to 6...e6 later in
the match, and this move is considered the better option for Black ever since.
und Weiß konnte mit Hilfe der Freibauern am Königsflügel leicht gewinnen. Ein
eindrucksvolles obgleich etwas einseitiges Eröffnungsduell. Als Folge dieser
Debatte wechselten beide Spieler später im Wettkampf zu 6...e6, einem Zug, der
seitdem als günstigste Fortsetzung für Schwarz gilt.} Kf7 36. Rh4 Kg6 37. Rf4
