Game No. 356 in Wilhelm Steinitz's The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891), printed pages 423–424; played April 3, 1889. Steinitz's original notes follow.

1. 8…b6 Having already made preparations by P— QR3 to maintain his chain of Pawns on the Q side, he now could have played P — B5 more effectively.
2. 12…Ne4 Much better was P — QKt 4, with the view of driving off the adverse Knight by P— Kt5.
3. 16…Be8 Waste of time. Compare Black's nineteenth move.
4. 28.Rxg6+ White's very ingenious attack might have yielded more decisive results here if he had first played B x B, for after 28...Q x B; 29 R x P ch., if 29...K—B sq.; 30 R x BP, and should win. Or if 29...P x R; 30 R—R8 ch., 30 K—Kt2; 31 R x R, with a Pawn ahead and a strong attack.
5. 38.h3 Losing a valuable Pawn which he could have easily protected with increased force of attack by B—Kt8.
