After the success of the international tournament of Baarn the previous year, a second smaller tournament was held in the fall of 1948. Belgian championship Devos was invited, as was the great Akiba Rubinstein’s son Samy. Both did decently well. Devos won the brilliancy prize for his scintillating victory against Wood. [1] has the crosstable and a number of games. [2] and [3] provided one game each. [4] gives round-by-round results, which I used to match the games I have to the correct rounds.
