I've looked at a few chess games on ChessBase that have a lot of pins, and I am wondering, what is the most number of pins that has occurred in a game, and what is the game?

The most pins in a real game position that I know is 3 from an extremely famous game nicknamed "On Pins And Needles" by chessgames.com. Agadmator covered in a YouTube video a few years ago.
