Notes by C. von Bardeleben.

1. 5…Ne7 I prefer Kt to B 3 here.
2. 18…b4 Black being very cramped rightly sacrifices a Pawn in order to get an easier game.
3. 21.Qc4 A weak move, which loses at once the gained Pawn. Better would be 21. Kt to B 4, to plant the Knight at R 5.
4. 24.Nd5 24. Kt to Q 2 would be better.
5. 28…Rb8 If B x P, then 29. Kt to B 4.
6. 36.Ra1 With 30. Kt x Kt, P x Kt; 31. Q x P, Q x Q; 32. R x Q, R x P; 33. B to Kt 3, the game would have ended in a draw. The move 30. B to Kt 3 is somewhat dangerous.
7. 37.Bf1 A very weak move, after which the game of the first player becomes hopeless. Black has in any case the better game, but White could escape with a draw, perhaps, if he played 36. R x R, P x R; 37. P to K R 3, B to B 4; 38. K to R 2, Q to Kt 8, ch; 39. K to Kt 3, Q to B 7, ch; 40. K to R 2, B to Q 3, ch; 41. K to R sq, Q to K 8, ch; 42. B to B sq, Q to Kt 6; 43. K to Kt sq, &c.
8. 37…Bxh2 White cannot save the game; if 37. P to K R 3, then Q to Kt 6, and Black wins.
