{ A particularly instructive demonstration of the importance of time is seen
in Szabo-Troianescu, Bucharest 1953. All pawns but one are in their initial
positions. White is to move, which obviously gives him one extra tempo.
However, he has one more hidden extra tempo: due to Black's king being on the
eighth rank, a white pawn promotes with check. These two tempi are more
important than Black's extra pawn. Annotations here are based on those of
Barcza. } 1.b4 Rg1 { 1...Kf8 was perhaps preferable. If 2.c4, then 2...Rb2 is
slightly better for Black than the actual game continuation. } ( 1...Kf8 2.c4
Rb2 ) 2.c4 Kf8 3.c5 { Later analysis showed that with 3.b5 White would advance
more easily. } ( 3.b5 ) 3...Rc1 4.Kd4 Rb1 5.Ra4 $1 { After 5.Rb6? Ke7 neither
of White's pawns can move. If 5.c6 Rxb4+ 6.Kc5 Rb8 7.c7 Rc8 8.Kb6 wins a rook,
but because of the Black's three connected passed pawns, the outcome is not so
clear. } ( 5.Rb6 $2 Ke7 ) ( 5.c6 Rxb4+ 6.Kc5 Rb8 7.c7 Rc8 8.Kb6 $13 ) 5...h5
6.c6 Ke7 7.Ke5 f6+ 8.Kd5 Rd1+ 9.Kc5 Rc1+ 10.Kb6 g5 $1 11.Ra7+ Ke6 12.Ra5 $1 {
Avoiding the trap 12.Rh7? g4 13.Rxh5 g3!, or 12.b5? g4 13.Rg7 f5 and White's
victory is problematic. Now the threat 13.Rc5 forces Black to the defensive. }
