Aug-02-10  vonKrolock: <6...h6> Another treatment, starting with 6...♘a5 etc, like in Tarrasch vs H Suechting, 1894 , was later championed by Keres

<7.♗e3> According to Schlechter, the oscillation ♗c1-g5-e3, instead of playing the Bishop directly to 'e3', is aimed to avoid the manoeuvre ♘g4-♘h6 after the exchange in 'e3'.

<14.♕h4> !

<14...a6> If 14...♕xh4, then 15.♘xh4 ♗d7 16.♖xf8+ ♘xf8 17.♘d5 a6 18.♖f1 analysis diagram

This seemingly cold positional effort was their last Tournament game
