Coburg 1904
Compiled by Phony Benoni

For well over half a century, Germany held a position in the chess world similar to that later occupied by the Soviet Union. Germany, along with Austria-Hungary and other German-speaking areas, had the deepest roster of great players, the greatest theoreticians, and German was the language of the learned chess world. Other countries could produce top chess talent, but none could match Germany's strength from top to bottom.

A highlight of the German chess scene were the biannual Congresses of the German Chess Federation. These featured a <Meisterturnier>, open only to recognized Masters from Germany and around the world, and a grueling <Hauptturnier>, a kind of Candidates tournament whose victor would win the right to play in future <Meisterturniers> and become recognized as a Master not just in Germany, but the entire world.

The 14th Congress of the German Chess Federation was held in Coburg from July 18-August 1, 1904. The Master Tournament featured a strong sample of players from various parts of the Empire and beyond:

Curt von Bardeleben Johann Nepomuk Berger Ossip Bernstein Miklos Brody Horatio Caro Leo Forgacs Hermann von Gottschall Walter John Georg Marco Jacques Mieses Carl Schlechter Hugo Suechting Rudolf Swiderski Heinrich Wolf.

Berger jumped out to a quick lead, being the only player to win his first two games. In round 3, however, he was beaten by Swiderski (who had been a point behind), and the favored Schlechter drove to the top.

After Round 5, Schlecter had a half-point lead on the field, with Swiderski a point behind. Once again, Swiderski knocked off the leader, and when Schlechter's bye (due to the withdrawal of Brody after round 3) came up in the next round, he drifted down in the scoretable and it was Bardeleben's turn to surge to the top.

Are you discerning a trend here? After Round 8, Bardeleben was a half-point ahead of the field with Swiderski a point behind. Yep. Lightning struck for the third time, and now Swiderski decided to end all this foolishness by winning two more in a row and establishing his own lead.

So after round 11 Swiderski had 7.5, Bardeleben 6.5, and Bernstein, Marco, Mieses and Schlechter stood at 6.0. At this point, there was good news and bad news for Swiderski. The bad news was that he had only one game left, since his bye would come up in the 13th and final round. The good news was that the game was against Walter John, who was sitting comforably in last place. A win would almost surely clinch things, since Bardeleben could only catch him by beating Schlechter with Black, which didn't seem likely.

Well, you can look at the game and decide whether Swiderski beat himself or John had something to do with it, but at any rate the upset did occur. Schlechter defeated Bardeleben, leaving this situation:

Swiderski 7.5 (bye)
Schlechter 7.0 (Black vs. Berger)
Bardeleben 6.5 (White vs. Caro)
Marco 6.5 (Black vs. Suechting)
Mieses 6.5 (Black vs. Bernstein)

When Berger traded queens in a symmetrical position you could be pretty sure that Schlechter would do no more than draw, and he didn't. Of the others, only Bardeleben was able to come through with a win and tie for first.

Hauptturnier A featured many young players who would become major grandmasters in years to come:

I told you it was gruelling. Topping the field were Augustin Neumann and Milan Vidmar, with Neumann winning a short play-off match:

        1 2 3 4 5
Neumann 1 = = 0 1 3.0
Vidmar  0 = = 1 0 2.0

No, you've never heard of him; he was another promising young talent cut short by illness, and would die 18 months later at the age of 26.

The tournament book provided a number of games from this and other sections of the Congress, so I might as well fill you in on the details. Plenty of room for all!

Fein won a play-off to advance to the finals.

5 J Von Patay = = 0 0 X 1 2.0
6 S Garso     0 0 0 0 0 X 0.0

Perhaps it's just as well we don't have any of Schmuck's games. Too many bad jokes.

Nebenturnier, Final

             1 2 3 4 5 6
1 A Carstens X = 1 1 1 1 4.5

5 H Possner  0 0 = 1 X 0 1.5
6 G Fein     0 0 0 0 1 X 1.0

By the way, Nebenturnier appears to mean something like "Near Master Tournament". Very encouraging.
