 | | MissScarlett: <Skinner & Verhoeven list the tournament as lasting from the 8th to the 21st of September. Round 15 was played on the 20th.> Yes, this discrepancy isn't explained by S&V. Maybe there were adjourned games played off on the 21st or there was a closing ceremony (although such formalities are usually disregarded). S&V: <After playing some superb chess, Alekhine must have been intensely disappointed with his placing in this event. His loss to Nielsen came on the day following a strenuous simultaneous display. [...]On the evening of the 18 September, two hours after finishing his tournament game, Alekhine gave a simultaneous display in aid of the Red Cross. He played against 25 of the best players in Munich and had a very tough session. In five hours, he scored 12 wins, nine draws and four losses.> |

Nov-15-23 | | stone free or die: Can anybody provide me with the original Alekhine Spanish text referenced in Winter's articles: http://www.chesshistory.com/winter/... C.N. 5079
(I wonder if Winter got copyright clearance from either either Alekhine (doubt) or the publisher of ¡Legado! --- ?) |
