Carl Mayet - Daniel Harrwitz, Berlin (match) 1847}) 4... c5 5. Bg5 cxd4 {By playing this black enters the Dutch-Peruvian Gambit, a line played by the Dutch IM Lodewijk Prins and Peru’s Esteban Canal. It's not considered correct, but black aims to sacrifice a P or two in order to get the initiative. It does require accurate play on white's part.} 6. Nxd4 e5 7. Ndb5 {This is inferior, but not losing. White has better moves: 6.Nf3, 6.Nb3 or 6.Bxf6} a6 {[%mdl 32] Before playing this Yudovich thought for 20 minutes. It was a psychological ploy. Fine looked at him and took the P immediately.} (7... d4 {has been tried, but it's not quite satisfactory as after} 8. Bxf6 gxf6 9. Nd5 Na6 10. Qa4 { whute stands well.
