ANALYSIS [x]
Notes by Lasker.7...Nxa4 is answered by 8.Nxe5 Be7 9.Nd5 O-O 10.Nxc6 dxc6 11.Nxe7+ Kh8 12.Nxc8 and b3. Black has a slight weakness on account of his doubled Pawn.This is here proven to be premature.Nf7, Qd7 the Knight would have no retreat.Also with Bd6 he could have got a good game. He would then have threatened before all, c5.24.g3 f4 25.gxf4 Qxh3.b6 was right in order to counteracy the White Bishop. The advance of the Pawns could then have been initiated by c5.Black can play 30...Rf7. After 31.Re1 Rxe1+ 32.Rxe1 Rd7 33.Re7 Rxe7 34.Bxe7, Black advances with King to d5 and obtains c5. Then Black can attempt to push a5 and b4, with the King as support on c4. With this enterprise he had good chances of success. Black should, therefore, by all means, have refused the offer of the draw.1/2-1/2
