Game II of the Pawn-and-move odds match — one of the two games “Alter” succeeded in drawing.
14.Rf3This must have been an error, as it loses a clear Pawn.
17…Nh4The proper move; for if Kt. to R's 3rd, White would have had a very effective reply in P. to Kt's 5th.
24…Rxf4In an analysis of this move, from the pen of a well-known master, we find a note to the effect that Black should here have continued the attack by R. takes R's P. (ch.), &c.; but as the game is only carried three moves further, we cannot endorse the opinion.
37.Bf3R. to K. B's sq. would have been a strong move at this point.
41.Rxe3Requisite, to prevent the Pawn from going on to Queen.
