Weaver Warren Adams may have been eccentric and erratic, but after twelve hard game he ruled the roost. The 74-player event drew many of the same strong players from the US, though the Latin contingent from 1947 was replaced by some extras from Canada, as well as some of the younger Eastern masters who might not have been able to afford the trip the previous year.

Adams started slowly, scoring +1 -1 =1 in the first three rounds. This led to what turned out to be an unusual pairing in round 4, as the eventual champion took on the player who wound up finishing next to last. The game is available and I'll submit it eventually, but don't get excited; it's about what you would expect to see in that situation.

It was a hard-fought finish, the top contenders constantly knocking each other off. Three players finished a half-point behind Adams. Isaac Kashdan was surely the favorite, but he lost to George Kramer and drew too many games afterward. Kramer started with 6.5/7, but then lost to Max Pavey and Adams. Olaf Ulvestad started with a loss, but still made it to second despite a murderous schedule which included draws with Adams, Kashdan, and Kramer.

Indeed, Ulvestad came close to winning it all. Going into the last round, he was the only player with 8.5, trailing Adams with 9.0. True to his nature, Adams tried to reach the Albin Counter Gambit in their game. Ulvestad declined to go there, eventually reached a won ending--and threw away the victory with one horrible move.

An early sensation was Carl Pilnick, who began by defeating Ulvestad and Adams in the first two rounds. He eventually made it to 5/6 after losing to Kashdan, but reality set in during week two.

Notable rookies included Jeremiah Donovan, Ariel Mengarini, and Max Pavey.
