Result
1/2-1/2
Notes by H. N. Pillsbury.
- 3.e3 Threatening 12. B x P, ch, R x B; 13. Kt x R, Q x Kt; 14. R x B, &c.
- 11.Re1 This and Black's 12th move fully equalise the position.
- 11…Nc6 These two moves are clear loss of time, and B to K B 4 at once was the correct play.
- 14.h3 The foregoing exchanges and this move force a draw, White makes a futile effort to avoid this result, but there is nothing left in the position to play for.
- 27…Bxa4 A certain draw now.
