Game No. 306 in William Steinitz’s The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891), printed pages 375–376. Note (h)’s wording is retained as printed, although the recorded score finishes with Black’s win.

1. 10…Nxe4 Quite a relief for White’s Q side which has only been sadly blocked by the latter’s premature K side attack. R—K sq. would have improved Black’s position.
2. 13.Kd1 Unnecessary. He might have quite as well advanced P—KKt3 now as on the next move without spoiling his right to Castle.
3. 15.d3 It was dangerous to win the QBP after exchanging the Bishop, as Black would afterward play R—QKt sq., followed by B—Kt2 and Q—Q2, gaining a fine command of important diagonals.
4. 17…Rb8 Not as strong, we believe, as 17...Kt—Q4, for if 18 B x Kt (or 18 B x R, 18 B—Kt5; 19 B x Kt, 19 Q x B!, and wins); 19 B x B, 19 Kt—K4; 20 B x Kt, 20 P x B; 21 P—Q6, with a vehement attack.
5. 23.bxc4 White is getting confused by the opponent’s dashing attack. 23 Kt x B ch., 23 P x Kt; 24 KtP x P, 24 KR—Kt sq. (or 24...R—K6, 25 Q—Kt2, etc.); 25 QR—R2 made his position all right, with two Pawns ahead.
6. 29…Qc3+ Feeble. After B—K2 instead White could not hold out long.
7. 33…Bb2 Much inferior to B—B4, which preserved his passed RP, guarded his own second row against the usually inconvenient entrance of the adverse Rook, and kept the hostile King quite confined.
8. 48.Kd6 Black has made a very fine defence and the most of his position under great difficulties, but it is not enough against the large material odds on the other side.
