| |
| justwatcher: Staunton had the great idea of 49...Qh1 while the Frenchman at move 62 lost his best chance when he has advanced the pawn before having shot the rook!... |

Sep-11-15 Beetlestone vs Saint-Amant, 1858
| |
| justwatcher: White's behavior is suicidal due to his wrong choices: he should have preserved the queen instead of taking the bait N at move 23; at move 35, the exchange was not a deuce and at moves 37 and 41, ouch! they are logically inexplicable... |

Sep-09-15 Staunton vs Saint-Amant, 1843
| |
| justwatcher: Here Staunton's trick was to place his movements "all over" the board, with the pawns hunting as a mean of distracting attention. The material balance is here very strict for others than pawns... |

| |
| justwatcher: On the contrary Saint-Amant won this one a la Karpov, through hard and quiet work aiming to accumulate material and positional advantages, but with nothing of spectacular. Staunton is a gambler, the Frenchman is not one!... That's their fundamental difference!... |
