Result
1/2-1/2
Game No. 377, printed pages 443–444, in Wilhelm Steinitz, The Book of the Sixth American Chess Congress (1891).
- 19…Ndxe5 Much stronger was Kt—B4.
- 28…Bb3 B x B, followed by Kt—Q5, would have secured possession of the open file, with an excellent game.
- 38.Be4 Kt—Kt6, with the view of playing soon B—B3, would have gained valuable time.
- 54.Nc1 White overlooks an ingenious scheme of the adversary. K—K3, followed soon by Kt—QB3, would have won without trouble.
