Kibitzer's Corner
Feb-15-13  thomastonk: Steinitz visited Russia in 1895-96 and took part at Game Collection: St. Petersburg 1895-96. On his way back he played a short simul tour in the Netherlands, where he had this little skirmish with todays birthday boy.

[Event "Simultaneous exhibition May 1896"]
[Site "The Netherlands (possibly Rotterdam)"]
[Date "1896.05.??"]
[Round "?"]
[White "Steinitz, Wilhelm"]
[Black "Heemskerk, J.F."]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "C39"]
[PlyCount "51"]

I found this game yesterday and observed that it is full of tactics and mistakes. Most of the time Black is completely winning, but sometimes White is equal or winning. Finally, instead of 25.. ♔f7??, 25.. ♔h8 should have resulted in a draw due to the perpetual. Have fun!

May-31-14  ljfyffe: In an English Opening as white, Heemskerk defeated Rev. John de Soyres of New Brunswick, in 1903 at Hilversum.

Marshall vs Heemskerk, 1912

  Telemus: <Phony Benoni> I didn't find Marshall visiting the Netherlands in 1912 (though he played a lot in Europe). But Marshall gave a simul on 20 May 1911 in the Witte Societeit, The Hague, where he lost to J.F. Heemskerk. (Reports differ on the overall result: +10, -3, =6 or +10, -3, =7. I found the gamescore of another of Marshall's defeats in a newspaper, but not the game with Heemskerk.)

Chessbase claims that the game you are questioning is indeed Marshall vs Jan Frederik Heemskerk from that event.

  Phony Benoni: <Teleanus> Thank you. I suspect the 1912 date was assumed from the game's publication in the "American Chess Bulletin", January 1913, p. 13 (where not playing date was given).
