Notes by J. H. Blackburne.
- 8.Be2 B to B 4 is better.
- 11.c3 This only drives the Bishop to a stronger position. P to Q 4 at once is certainly better.
- 12.Qb3+ A useless check; the Queen is completely out of play for the rest of the game. P to Q 4 was the correct move.
- 17.Rg1 White is now in difficulties, but this move makes matters worse. Q to B 2, preventing the threatened move of Q to Kt 3, seems to be the only move.
- 19.Bxf4 This loses a Piece, but P x P is not much better, as in the latter case Q to R 5 wins easily.
