Game No. 166 in Steinitz's The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891), printed pages 215–216 (PDF pages 267–268); headed "Played in the first round, March 29th." Note (d) retains the printed '30 B—Q3', which is not a legal bishop move in the preceding variation.

1. 8.Nbd2 White adopts a sort of Giuoco Piano attack which, as pointed out in the "Modern Chess Instructor," is very effective in most variations of this opening.
2. 14.Qc2 A weak move that allows the opponent to obtain the better position on the Q side.
3. 17…Nh5 Black could have bettered his position still more by P—Q4 at this juncture. He could then reserve playing the Bishop back to the centre at K3, whereas now the Bishop is driven back to the K side.
4. 26…d3 Not having calculated as far ahead as his opponent, he allows himself to be outgeneralled at a critical point. 26...Q—KB2; 27 KtxB, 27 RxKt; 28 BxP, 28 KtxB; 29 RxKt, 29 P—Q4; 30 P—K5, best, 30 B—Q3; 31 Q—K3, 31 B—K5; 32 B—Kt sq., 32 RxP, would have made a perfectly even game of it.
5. 32.Kxe2 The depth and ingenuity of White's forecalculation becomes patent now that Black has adopted the line of play that seemingly was most dangerous to the opponent.
6. 44.Re1 The adverse Rook kept two pieces inactive, and the best plan for White was to force an exchange.
