Black exposes his king too much by
this move. |
9.Bg3
** |
By sacrificing the knight for two
pawns, White might have got up somewhat of an attack, but scarcely
sufficient
to have compensated for the loss of a piece. |

It was suggested by Stanley, who
was
present while the game was being played, that 15.Nh4 would have given
White
a winning game, for suppose: 15.Nh4 gxh4 16.Rf5 Be6 17.Qg4+ Kh8 18.Qh5
and must win. |

This compels Black to exchange the
queen for the two rooks. |
