  keypusher: I see Steinitz went in for bad moves in the opening with White as well.
Feb-27-08  Knight13: Oui, j'accord.
Nov-09-11  AnalyzeThis: Black was definitely too easy going here. He was content to make a draw, but should have been out for blood.

<This movement made Steinitz think for about twenty minutes at the end of which time his opponent said: “It is nothing but a draw, Mr. Steinitz.” and the latter then assented to the proposal, saying: “Very well, all right.”>
