Game 175 in Philip W. Sergeant’s Morphy’s Games of Chess (1916), printed pages 233. Commentary from this edition; named earlier annotators remain credited in the notes.
- 9…Nf6 Bad. Kt—R4, as in Game XCV, is correct.
- 11…Bxd4 For B—Kt5 see Game CCIII.
- 18.Bxe7 18 Q×Qch, K×Q; 19 Kt×Kt would have put White a piece up.
- 29…g6 29…Kt×B; 30 P×Kt, R—K7; 31 QR—B7 is no better for Black. Nor yet is 29…R—K2; 30 R×R, Kt×R; 31 R—B7, Kt—B4; 32 B—K5.
