Game No. 391, printed pages 454, in Wilhelm Steinitz, The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891).
- 8…a6 P—Q4 was much stronger.
- 20…Nd4 The further advance of this Pawn afterward greatly harasses his game, and he should have exchanged it, which would have also isolated White's KP.
- 27…Bxe3+ A strange error. R x B ch. first won the exchange, with an excellent game, instead of which he remains a piece behind.
