43...B×g5??
A miscalculation. Now, White can obtain a draw by using an intermediate move.
43....Bd4! was correct and after 44.Nf3 f×e3 -+ Antipov would be helpless.

White could have gained an advantage with the following continuation.

9.b4!
White intends to prevent Black from playing ...c5. Next move, he wants to set up an anti-King's Indian bayonet attack with c4, then maybe c5, and Nc4, trying to demonstrate that he can find new ideas with Nd2, rather than Nc3. In the standard bayonet attack after Nc3, White often tries Nd2 with his other knight, and then Nc4 after c5. It's just something different.
9...c6?!
This seems to help White's plan. A more critical line is 9...Nh5 10.c4 f5, maybe equal.
10.c4 cxd5 11.cxd5.

17.Be5
An interesting move to remove the defender of important light-squares such as e4, and also deflect the black bishop from the control of b4-square.
17...h6 18.Bxf6 Bxf6 19.b4?!
This was White's idea, setting up pawn pressure on the queenside, but White is soon over-committed. 19.Qe4 Qc7 is equal, or, contains the slightest of a minimal edge for White.

☑️ Chess History
▪️ The Paris 1900 chess tournament was an event held in conjunction with the Exposition Universelle (1900), one of the world's most notable fairs or exhibitions held during the second half of the nineteenth century and designated a "World Exposition" by the Bureau of International Expositions. Major international chess tournaments were also held at six other expositions: London 1851, London 1862, Paris 1867, Vienna 1873, Philadelphia 1876 and Paris 1878. No chess events of significance accompanied, for instance, the Exposition Universelle (1889) in Paris or the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
The tournament of 1900 was played in the Grand Cercle, Paris, from May 17 to June 20, 1900. The time limit was 30 moves in two hours, followed by 15 moves in one hour. Draws had to be replayed once. All tournament games finished in June 19.
The prizes winners were Lasker (5000 F), Pillsbury (2500 F), Maróczy and Marshall (1750 F) each, Burn (1500 F), Chigorin (1000 F), Marco and Mieses (300 F) each. Schlechter tied for 7–9th but won fewer games and received no prize money. The top four also won Sèvres vases. Mieses won the Brilliancy Prize with his favourite Vienna Game against Janowski.

▪️ German chess player
▪️ World Chess Champion for 27 years
🔰 Emanuel Lasker was a German chess player, mathematician, and philosopher who was World Chess Champion for 27 years. In his prime, Lasker was one of the most dominant champions, and he is still generally regarded as one of the strongest players ever.
🔘 Full name: Emanuel Lasker
🔘 Country: Germany
🔘 Born: December 24, 1868
Berlinchen, Prussia (now Barlinek, Poland)
🔘 Died: January 11, 1941 (aged 72)
New York City, United States
🔘 World Champion: 1894–19
🔰 Emanuel Lasker was the second official World Chess Champion, reigning for a record 27 years after he defeated the first World Champion, Wilhelm Steinitz, in 1894.
Statistician Jeff Sonas of Chessmetrics writes, "if you look across players' entire careers, there is a significant amount of statistical evidence to support the claim that Emanuel Lasker was, in fact, the most dominant player of all time."
🔰 Lasker was born (on the same date as Richard Teichmann) in what was then Berlinchen (literally "little Berlin") in Prussia, and which is now Barlinek in Poland. In 1880, he went to school in Berlin, where he lived with his older brother Berthold Lasker, who was studying medicine, and who taught him how to play chess. By Chessmetrics' analysis, Berthold was one of the world's top ten players in the early 1890s.
