Oct-14-11  Benzol: Adolphe Viaud played in the 1st WCC Ch 1950 - 1953 but withdrew part way through the contest and all his games were cancelled. However, thanks to his opponents some of the gamescores have survived and are now included in the gamesfile above.

Did Viaud give a reason for his withdrawal?

  wwall: He probably withdrew after losing 6 games in a row and not having an advantage in his other games in the event.
