Annotations by Mackenzie
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.b4 Bxb4 5.c3 Bc5 6.0-0 d6
7.d4 exd4 8.cxd4 Bb6 9.Re1 Bg4 10.Bb2
** |
10.Bb5, is, we think, the best move
at this point. |
10...Nh6 11.d5 Bxf3 12.Qxf3 Ne5 13.Bb5+ Kf8
14.Qg3
** |
We should have preferred taking off
the knight with bishop. |
14...Nhg4 15.Re2 h5 16.h3 h4 17.Qc3 a6
18.Ba4
** |
Reichhelm appears to have
overlooked
the object of Blacks last move, or in all probability he would
have taken
knight with pawn. |
18...Nxf2 19.Kh2
** |
White would have lost the exchange
at least, had he captured the knight. |
19...Qf6 20.Qd2 Nf3+ 21.gxf3 Qxf3 22.Bxg7+
Kxg7
** |
This was played without suffecient
consideration; by simply playing 22...Kg8, Mackenzie must have won the
game in a move or two. |
23.Qc3+ Qxc3 24.Nxc3 (...) 0-1.
** |
The game was prolonged for about
thirty
more moves, and finally won by Black. |
