Sep-02-12		Karpova: At the Dr. Körner Tournament in Vienna in 1928, Lichtenstein did remarkably well despite facing strong opposition: 1. Reti 10.5 2-5. Becker 8.5 2-5. Lichtenstein 8.5 2-5. Spielmann 8.5 2-5. Dr. Tartakover 8.5 6. Kmoch 8.0 7. Grünfeld 7.5 8. Müller 6.5 9-11. Von Döry 5.0 9-11. Igel 5.0 9-11. Takacs 5.0 12. Glass 3.5 13-14. Beutum 3.0 13-14. S. R. Wolf 3.0 Lichtenstein scored +6 =5 -2 and earned the Master title. He barely participated in tournaments due to his profession (though so far I don't know what it was). His chess playing style is described as bizarre and said that he didn't know chess theory. He was more of a natural talent. From page 82 of the 1928 and page 162 of the 1934 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung'

Sep-02-12		Karpova: Lichtenstein was less fortunate at the 14th Trebitsch Tournament in Vienna in 1931: 1. Becker 11.0 2. Hönlinger 10.5 3. Grünfeld 10.0 4. König 9.5 5. L. Steiner 8.0 6. Glass 7.0 7-8. Lokvenc 6.5 7-8. Hans Müller 6.5 9. Lichtenstein 5.0 10-12. Beutum 4.0 10-12. Boros 4.0 10-12. S. R. Wolf 4.0 13. Kunert 3.0 14. Dr. Metanomski 2.0 From page 178 of the 1931 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung' Lichtenstein scored +3 =4 -6, losing places 1-5 and Lokvenc.

Sep-02-12		Karpova: The 18th Trebitsch Tournament* in Vienna in 1935 was again a bit of a disappointment for Bernhard: 1-2. Eliskases 8.0 1-2. L. Steiner 8.0 3-5. Becker 6.5 3-5. Müller 6.5 3-5. Spielmann 6.5 6-7. Glass 6.0 6.7. Grünfeld 6.0 8. Gereben 5.5 9. Lichtenstein 4.0 10. Fuss 3.5 11. S. R. Wolf 3.0 12. Kolnhofer 2.5 Lichtenstein scored +2 =4 -5. From page 365 of the 1935 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung' *Not to be confuse with the 17th Trebitsch Tournament which ended on January 4, 1935 and where Lichtenstein did not participate.
