Qf3 Nc6 9. Be2 Bg4 10. Qf4 Bxe2 11. Kxe2 O-O-O {Characteristically, Steinitz
has indulged in a risky looking pawn grab. His King is unsafe, and how to
complete development is a real problem} 12. Ne1 { Unquestionably the best
move, protecting the c-pawn and preparing Pd3} 12... Nb4 {Attempting to cross
White's Plans} 13. a3 $1 (13. d3 Nxc2 { removing the guard of d3}) 13... Rhe8
$5 {Black feels sure he can smash the White position with a few powerful
blows. However, things do no turn out that way; Steinitz plays a level headed
defence, not weakening his position any further} 14. axb4 Nxe4 15. Qf5+ { An
important intermediate check, bringing his Queen to a safer spot} 15... Kb8

Bxf2 Qxa1+ 22. Ke2 Re8+ 23. Kf1 Qf6 24. Qf3 { White's position is not weakened
and Black lacks points of contact}) 19. c3 Qc4 20. Kc2 Rf2 21. Nd3 Rfe2 {The
defence is running smoothly} (21... Qe4 22. Re1 { White forces
simplifications}) 22. b3 Qc6 (22... Qe4 23. Qf3) 23. Qf3 Qg6 24. Rf1 R8e3 25.
