Kf3 Bd4 52. h7 d2 53. Ke2 Kg7 54. f6+ Bxf6 55. Bc5 Bg5 0 : 1. “It’s only a rapid game”, Marie Rachel eventually minimized. “This time I didn’t disintegrate: I won and climbed up. I took my time thinking. In my other games, I played a bit too fast. Against Karpov (round ten), particularly, I had a good position, but I was just ‘letting it go’ and I lost. Now I feel very tired. I’m not able to concentrate”.
