Noteboom Memorial (1965) A combination of eight grandmasters and masters competed in the annual Noteboom Memorial held in Noordwijk, The Netherlands from February 21 to 28, 1965. Among the notable participants were former world champion Mikhail Botvinnik, Danish sensation Bent Larsen, and Salomon Flohr. Jan Hein Donner led the Dutch contingent of players that included Jacob Kort and Carl Van den Berg. Bulgarian grandmaster Milko Bobotsov and Yugoslav grandmaster Petar Trifunovic rounded out the roster of participants. Botvinnik was only removed from his world championship crown but had maintained his class, scoring six points from seven games with Trifunovic finishing a distant second to him. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Pts 1st Botvinnik * 1 ½ 1 1 ½ 1 1 6.0 2nd Trifunovic 0 * ½ 1 ½ 1 ½ 1 4.5 3rd Flohr ½ ½ * 1 ½ ½ ½ ½ 4.0 =4th Larsen 0 0 0 * 1 1 ½ 1 3.5 =4th Van den Berg 0 ½ ½ 0 * ½ 1 1 3.5 =6th Bobotsov ½ 0 ½ 0 ½ * ½ 1 3.0 =6th Donner 0 ½ ½ ½ 0 ½ * 1 3.0 8th Kort 0 0 ½ 0 0 0 0 * 0.5 Original collection: Game Collection: Noordwijk 1965, by User: suenteus po 147.  page 1 of 2; games 1-25 of 28  Game   Result Moves Year Event/Locale Opening 1. Flohr vs C van den Berg   ½-½ 17 1965 Noteboom Memorial A04 Reti Opening 2. P Trifunovic vs J Kort   1-0 23 1965 Noteboom Memorial B27 Sicilian 3. Botvinnik vs Larsen 1-0 52 1965 Noteboom Memorial D35 Queen's Gambit Declined 4. J H Donner vs Bobotsov   ½-½ 20 1965 Noteboom Memorial E52 Nimzo-Indian, 4.e3, Main line with ...b6 5. J Kort vs C van den Berg   0-1 53 1965 Noteboom Memorial B99 Sicilian, Najdorf, 7...Be7 Main line 6. Larsen vs J H Donner   ½-½ 44 1965 Noteboom Memorial A09 Reti Opening 7. P Trifunovic vs Botvinnik 0-1 52 1965 Noteboom Memorial B06 Robatsch 8. Bobotsov vs Flohr   ½-½ 19 1965 Noteboom Memorial A28 English 9. Botvinnik vs J Kort 1-0 49 1965 Noteboom Memorial A00 Uncommon Opening 10. J H Donner vs P Trifunovic   ½-½ 19 1965 Noteboom Memorial D18 Queen's Gambit Declined Slav, Dutch 11. C van den Berg vs Bobotsov   ½-½ 46 1965 Noteboom Memorial B27 Sicilian 12. Flohr vs Larsen 1-0 39 1965 Noteboom Memorial B39 Sicilian, Accelerated Fianchetto, Breyer Variation 13. P Trifunovic vs Flohr   ½-½ 20 1965 Noteboom Memorial B17 Caro-Kann, Steinitz Variation 14. J Kort vs Bobotsov   0-1 34 1965 Noteboom Memorial B09 Pirc, Austrian Attack 15. Larsen vs C van den Berg   1-0 27 1965 Noteboom Memorial A29 English, Four Knights, Kingside Fianchetto 16. Botvinnik vs J H Donner 1-0 53 1965 Noteboom Memorial A17 English 17. J H Donner vs J Kort   1-0 54 1965 Noteboom Memorial E62 King's Indian, Fianchetto 18. Flohr vs Botvinnik ½-½ 20 1965 Noteboom Memorial D13 Queen's Gambit Declined Slav, Exchange Variation 19. Bobotsov vs Larsen 0-1 56 1965 Noteboom Memorial D60 Queen's Gambit Declined, Orthodox Defense 20. C van den Berg vs P Trifunovic   ½-½ 14 1965 Noteboom Memorial C09 French, Tarrasch, Open Variation, Main line 21. P Trifunovic vs Bobotsov   1-0 25 1965 Noteboom Memorial A04 Reti Opening 22. J Kort vs Larsen 0-1 33 1965 Noteboom Memorial A56 Benoni Defense 23. Botvinnik vs C van den Berg 1-0 38 1965 Noteboom Memorial A07 King's Indian Attack 24. J H Donner vs Flohr   ½-½ 26 1965 Noteboom Memorial B15 Caro-Kann 25. C van den Berg vs J H Donner 1-0 13 1965 Noteboom Memorial B96 Sicilian, Najdorf  page 1 of 2; games 1-25 of 28    REFINE SEARCH:   White wins (1-0) | Black wins (0-1) | Draws (1/2-1/2)     There is no kibitzing for this page, yet.   NOTE: Create an account today to post replies and access other powerful features which are available only to registered users.
