UNSOUND COMBINATION UNDOING OF CINTRON
Miscalculating the strength of the combination he entered upon, Rafael Cintron, champion of Puerto Rico, found himself a piece minus and then lost in short order to Isaac Kashdan, in the tournament at San Juan. The Puerto Rican has the daring to go after his man, but needs the training to put on the finishing touch to his tactics.
Dr. Seitz and Marshall had a hard battle, which eventually reached a rook and pawn ending, winding up in a draw.
The scores:
Isaac Kashdan vs Rafael Cintron
San Juan international (1936), San Juan, Puerto Rico, Nov-??
Nimzo-Indian Defense: Spielmann Variation (E22) 1-0
Jakob Adolf Seitz (white) vs. Frank Marshall (black)
