But his game was anyhow very bad already, for in answer to QR--R sq., which was about his only other alternative, White would have replied Kt--R5 with an irresistible attack. (Continued on page 31.) Anderssen v. Paulsen. 132. Game 11.--We think that the move we propose in our Col. 10, viz., 8 Kt--Kt5 gives White a stronger attack. 133. Game II.--This is premature. P--KR3 was here a necessity. 134. An error of which White takes advantage in a precise manner. 135. Game II.--QR--K sq. would not have answered as well, as Black would attack the Q by Kt--B4. 136. Game II.--There was nothing better. If K--R sq., the reply KtxP ch. wins the Q or mate is effected in two more moves by Q--R4 ch. 137. Splendid style. 138.

Winawer. 161. Game 15.--Compare notes 53 and 54 to Col. 20. Zukertort played at this stage against the same opponent in the same tournament 12 P--Q4; and White took the P in passing, and after the exchange of pieces Black remained with an isolated QP. The game ultimately ended in a draw. Black, however, cannot play P--KB3, for White would win a P by Q--B4 ch., followed by PxP. 162. Game 15.--A feeble sort of waiting policy. 13 P--Q3; 14 Kt--Q5, 14 R--Ksq.; was his best resource, for though White can now also win a P by KtxB a...
