Robert Ris: "This week, again, we'll have a look at the Rubinstein Variation of the Nimzo-Indian. In the German Bundesliga the game Maghsoodloo-Gledura caught all the attention with a very original attacking concept. Black seemed to be overwhelmed and failed to generate counterplay in time, enabling White to launch a devastating mating attack first."
