The following game played in Capt. Shripad Govind Ranade chess tournament at Bombay is an instructive lesson by itself on “how not to play chess!” At every stage the leader of black forces commits errors in strategy and tactics with the result that white, without the least exertion, finds himself in a winning position. The merit of white's play is in the choice of an opening with which black is very unfamiliar but not even this will excuse the poor standard of play. As the game is useful for its furnishing certain fundamental lessons which are honored by breach we advise the student to go over the same carefully. A queen pawn opening in which black does not strive for freedom in the queen bishop file is a rarity and the adoption of 2. … N-QB3 by black without even an attempt to advance in the center with … P-K4 is unknown to modern chess. Of course, we have come across with the time-losing maneuver of black's featuring … P-Q4 and … N-KB3 but here the same is staged when black's game is quite backward. Now we leave the students to judge for themselves.
From Capt. Ranade chess tournament, Bombay:
Alurker (white) vs. Shende (black)
