Game No. 285 in William Steinitz’s The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891), printed pages 353–354.

1. 4.d3 Either 4 P—Q4, 4 P x QP; 5 P—K5, as recommended by the “Modern Chess Instructor,” or else 4 P x P, with the likely continuation: 4...P—K5; 5 Q—K2, 5 Q—K2; 6 B x Kt, 6 QP x P; 7 Kt—Q4, etc., are stronger replies to Black’s last move which is an unsound defence.
2. 9.d4 White has evidently lost a move.
3. 12…Qd7 We should have preferred 12...B x P, with the probable continuation: 13 Q—B4 ch., 13 K—R sq.; 14 Q x P, 14 Q—Q2, with a strong passed Pawn in the centre and the superior position.
4. 32…Kf8 R—B sq., with the view of doubling the Rooks on the QKt file, was certainly better.
5. 34…Bxa4 The sacrifice of the piece, though it gives him three passed Pawns, was unjustifiable in view of the bad position of his King.
6. 39.Nh5 This powerful move gives winning force to his attack.
7. 41.R8e7+ It was more correct to check with the other Rook and to draw the adverse K—Kt3 without giving him the option of retreating to B sq.
