It would, however, be good tactics, as Mr. match. n when it forces nothing. (d) Injudicious, as Dr. Blieden/ is clearly playing for a K side attack. (e) Putting Black in much B, 19. R x Peh, Beh, winning a P: KO! Ko X Kt, 20. R x Peh, Kt—R2, 21. QR—N. In fact. Black has no adequate defence. (g) K—R2 20. Kt—Ktch. K Ri, 21. R x Beh and mates next move (h) Of course, Black is dead, but it i Rich, winning the Q. (i) 27. P—B4, when the poor Black Q cannot give her K a fight without losing her life. A bright game.
