Game No. 403, printed pages 464, in Wilhelm Steinitz, The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891).
- 14…Bb6 B x B, followed by P—B3, was preferable.
- 27.Ne2 B—Kt3 was superior.
- 30.dxc5 Kt—Q3 first gave him better attacking prospects.
- 34…dxe4 The sacrifice of a Pawn by withdrawing B—Kt3, followed by Kt—B5, would have been preferable here.
