Notes by llerr Steinitz, from the Field. 

 (o) Not a good post for the Q. Herr Winawor probably intended 

 to support his Kt, in order not to bo subjectcil to the doubling of 

 his QBP, while reserving the choioo of squares for liia QB. 



(h) Ho isolates the adverse P, but lie exposes himself to an attack 

 which ho afterwards finds somewhat troublesome, and which sub- 

 sequently required the greatest care in defending. 



((•) Probably tho only move. It makes room for his^K, and 

 liberates his Kt for action ; tho latter could not move at once ; for 

 Wliito would have sacrificed the Kt for the KtP, which Black could 

 not venture to retake with the K, on nccount of the rejoinder, P to 

 K5 ((lis. eh). 



(d) White is not to be tempted into saci-iCcing the Kt, whereupon 

 tho game might have proceeded thus : — 



Whitb. BtiCK. I WinTF. Blxci. 



21. Kt lakes P Kt takes Kt 22. B takes RP RtoKRsq.and 

 I should win. 



(t) Again the only move ; if Kt to Kt sq. White could still take 

 off the RP, for if the B retook, the reply R takes B(ch) would win. 

 since the Kt could not retake, on account of Kt to BO(ch) ; if, how- 

 ever the Kt then took the B, White would mate in a few moves, 

 commencing with Kt to B6(ch). 



(/) ^\'hite judiciously gives up all attack which he could no: 

 sustain ; for instance, by P to KKtl — since Black would then pin 

 the P by B to K3, and afterwards Q to Q2. 



(g) First part of a plan for inducing the opponent to exchange 

 pieces and to bring about an ending. 



(h) With the view of driving the Q to K4, and in order to te 

 enabled to oppose Queens at KB4 subsequently. 



(i) She cannot retreat to Q2, as tho B would be opposed at BG 

 with advantage. 



(j) It would have been very unwise to check with the Q at R8, 

 and then to take the QRP ; White would interpose the R, followed 

 by B takes B, Q to B3(ch), and R to Hsq, with an excellent game. 

 The move in the text is another preparation for this game in thi- 

 ending, as will be seen on Black's 28th and 29th move. 



(i) The offer of exchanging Queens is ill advised ; White would 

 have had a perfectly even game otherwise. Herr Winawer sub- 

 sequently admitted that he had ignored the effect of Black's next 

 move after exchanging. 



(l) This move exercises a most important effect on Black's 

 prospects in the ending, for it forces tho separation and isolation of 

 White's Pawns on the Q side. 



Steinitz. 



BUCK. 



(»i) He could not evade the unpleasant necessity of capturing, 

 for, if he moved the B to K2, Black would still answer R to K4; 

 threatening R to QR4, and also to win a P at once by P to EEt4. 



(n) Stronger than R to QR4, e.?. :— 



(o) Not a good move ; V to QB3 was better. 



(p) Black threatens now to bring tho B round to QB3 via Q2. 



(•;) Obviously he could not afford to exchange, as his separated 

 Pawns would soon fall, one by one. 



(r) This compromises the position of his Pawns on tho K side, 

 too ; as, after tho exchange of Rooks, which is soon inevitable, they 

 are all placed on squares on which they can bo attacked by tho 

 hostile B. 



(«) Ilo could not afford to allow tho R to reach Kt7, as his two 

 pieces and the K would bo too much confined, and an uufavonrnblc 

 exchange of Bishops could be easily forced, after which the R would 

 gain accois at KR7, taking the KKP. 



(() Better than taking tho P, whereupon White would have 

 blocked in tho B by B to Q3. 



(ii) Necessary in order to prevent the adverse B from reaching 

 Q5, and then 'defending alternately by B to B6, Kt5, or Q& 

 accordingly. 



(i) Perhaps in the hope that Black might take the P with the K,
