Game 115 in Wilhelm Steinitz, The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891), printed pages 150–151. The source dates the game May 13th, 1889. Original descriptive notation and printed analysis are retained.

1. 2…d6 In thus declining the gambit Black inconveniently shuts up his KB without his having the compensation of a Pawn plus.
2. 3…Nc6 If now 3. . .Px P; 4 P—Q4, 4 P— KKt4; 5 P— KR4, 5 P— KB3 (if 5. . .P— Kt 5, White may either retreat Kt — KKt sq. , with a very good game, or, as some practitioners prefer, he may bring about a strong form of the Allgaier Gambit by Kt— Kt5.
3. 4.Bc4 We prefer in this situation B — Kt 5.
4. 6…Nf6 Black could have also safely played here 6...Kt—K4, and if 7 KtxKt, 7 P X Kt! (not 7 . . . B X Q, which leads to a well-known mating combination, by 8 B X P ch., 8 K— K2; 9 Kt— Q5 mate); 8 Q x B, 8 Q—Q5 ch., etc.
5. 8.Qd3 Much stronger play was 8 P— KKt 3, for if 8...B— R6; 9BxPch.,etc. Or if 8. . . P X P; 9 QB x P, with an equally vehement attack.
6. 10.a3 We consider this useless. Even now P — KKt3 would have been strong enough. In reply to QKt — Kt5, which White seemingly wishes to guard against, he had a good answer by Q — K2.
7. 13.Nxb5 The sacrifice is more bold than sound, as Black's actual play proves for a considerable time.
8. 14…Ke7 Very good, but still better was 14. . .R— QKt sq.; 15 P— Q5, 15 RxB, and if 16 P X Kt, 16 Q X P, and wins.
9. 19…g4 Which loosens his strongest Pawn on the K side. By far better was 19 B— Kt2, 19B— B6; 20 Kt— Q5.
10. 35…Rh8 His Rook was a powerful auxiliary for his attack, and he ought never to have allowed its exchange, and much less ought he to have offered to exchange the same, more especially as he loses a very valuable Pawn thereby. After 35... P—B5, his winning ought only to have been a question of time.
11. 45…Ka5 Black, after having carefully played for a great series of moves, allows himself to be lured into a very clever trap, which loses a piece. 45 . . . K — Kt 2, and if 46 K— Kt4 or 46 P— R5, 46 Kt— Kt5, followed by Kt— K6, made his game more safe and easy for a draw, whereas his defence now becomes very difficult.
12. 64…Ke6 With this imprudent move his fate is decided. With good judgment he has kept all along with his King within reach of his Bishop and BP as much as possible, but now his King is driven back to the second row and the rest is easy for an experienced master like his opponent. K — B2 was the right play, and if 65 R— Kt4, 65 K— B3, etc.
13. 71.Rc4 White could have much shortened the winning process by 71 R—K7, threatening R x B at once. After gaining the two Pawns he could easily reach with his King the square at KKt6 in front of his passed Pawn, which would have produced a well-known theoretical position, in which the Pawn would win even if Black's King stood at KKt sq. and had the opposition, and no matter which side had to move first.
