I took the table from [2] and the games from [1]. I suspect that many of these games are incomplete, though. I don’t see, for example, why Colle would have resigned in the final position in his game against Nagy as given below. There was a strange incident during the Steiner-Colle game which Colle lost. (You can find the details below in the .pgn-viewer.) After this irregular defeat, Colle — who had led the pack with 5/6 before it — immediately lost two more games and fell back to the middle.

Wanted

  • Probably many moves in some games.
