Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-04-05  DanielBryant: His name is bigger than his game.
Jul-25-05  Benzol: He finished second at both Dusseldorf 1864 and Cologne 1867. Not sure if he was Austrian or German.
Sep-23-07  sneaky pete: Graf (Count) Vitzthum was from Dresden, Germany.
Sep-23-07  whiteshark: Partly genealogy and history of the noble family Vitzthum: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitzthum

History of the name Vitzthum: http://www.vitzthum-gymnasium.de/ge...

Nov-08-21  mulde: Well, lets call him Conny.
He usualy played with black, seemingly. And he was good enough to get games with heroes like Max Lange, Kolisch, Schallopp, Dubois and even ANDERSSEN.
