Will you be submitting the 4 missing games for the Leipzig tournament? I note they are in the tournament book. It seems that it does take a very long time for submitted games to appear in this database. I note you are showing that Anderssen won this 3rd and last match with L. Paulsen. One additional game would make this Leipzig 1877 collection complete.

This game is type: CLASSICAL (Disagree? Please submit a correction slip.) Adolf Anderssen vs Paul Morphy (1858) Pawn and Two: The game was equal after move 34. On Anderssen's 35th move he could have taken a draw by 35.Rg3+ Bg7 36.Rxg7+ Rxg7 37.Qd5+ Kh8 38.Ne5 Rf8 39.d7 Rd8 40.Qe6 Rg7xd7 41.Nxd7 Qxd7 42.Qf6+. Instead, Anderssen played 35.Rc1?. This move gave Morphy a great opportunity by playing 35...h6!

36.Rg3+ Bg7 37.h3 Kh7 38.Qd5 Qd7 39.Rc2 Rc5 40.Qd1 Qe6 41.Rd2 Rd7. After 35.Rc1? Morphy on his move then played 35...Rc5. Also possible was 35...Rc5 36.Rg3+ Bg7 37.h3 h5 38.Kh2 Kh7 39.Qd2 Bh6 40.Rgc3 Qe8 41.Qf2. In the game continuation, after 35...Rc5 36.Rg3+ Bg7 37.h3, Morphy now goes wrong, playing 37...Kh8? Adolf Anderssen vs Paul Morphy (1858) Petrosianic: <I believe there was a contemporary report from a British chess publication, whose correspondent claimed actually to have helped Morphy from his sickbed to the game, that Morphy was very ill, apparently with something fluish--hardly unexpected in international travel at the time--which might explain a lot about his play here.
