{...Qf5 9 Nxe4 Be7 10 Bg5 O-O 11 Nxd4 Qg6 leads to an equal
game. If for White 9 Rxe4+ Be7 10 Nxd4 Nxd4 11 Qxd4 Be6 and
White dare not capture the proffered pawn on account of the
following 12 Qxg7 Bf6 13 Qg3 O-O-O 14 Re1 Rhg8 15 Qf4 Rxg2+ 16
Kxg2 Qh3+ 17 Kh1 Bxc3 and wins.} 9. Rxe4+ Be6 {Very much
inferior to Be7 10 Nxd4 f5 11 Rf4 O-O 12 Nxc6 Qxd1 13 Nxd1
bxc6, etc. Black's two bishops should prove ample compensation
for the doubled pawn.} 10. Nxd4 Nxd4 11. Rxd4 Qc8 12. Bg5 f6
{This move should have cost black the game at once. Be7 was
the only resource.} 13. Qe2 {The following variation (first
pointed out by Mr. Lipschuetz, of New York) forces a winning
attack : 13 Bxf6 gxf6 14 Qh5+ Bf7 (best) 15 Re1+ Be7 16 Qh6
Qf5 (best) 17 Nb5 (not Rde4 which allows O-O-O) Qxb5 18 Qxf6
O-O 19 Rg4+ Bg6 20 Rxg6+ hxg6 21 Qxg6+ Kh8 22 Rxe7 and wins.}
Bc5 {An oversight which loses in a few moves. 13 ...Kf7 14 Re1
Bd6 (if fxg5 15 Rd8 and wins) left Black with a fairly good
game.} 14. Qb5+ c6 15. Qxc5 fxg5 16. Re1 b6 17. Qe5 {Qf5 was
more direct and decisive.} Kf7 18. Ne4 Qg8 19. Nxg5+ Kg6
20. Nxe6 1-0
