Game No. 408, printed pages 467–468, in Wilhelm Steinitz, The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891).

1. 4.Bb5 P—Q4, followed soon by B—Q3, was stronger.
2. 9…Nb4 9...R—K sq. (threatening Kt x KP, followed by B x B, etc.); 10 O—O, 10 P—Q4; 11 QB x Kt (or 11 P—K5, 11 Kt—K5), 11...B x B; 12 P—K5, 12 B—K2, gave Black slightly the better game.
3. 15.g3 P x P in passing, followed accordingly by Kt—K6 or B—B2, would have given White an excellent attack.
4. 22…Qf8 It was safe and very strong to break through by P—B5.
5. 30…Nf8 Simply P x B, followed by R—KB sq. in reply to Q—R2, would have won with ease.
6. 36.Nxg6 The wisest course, for he could hardly play for more than a draw which soon results from this.
