1927

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Tot
1 Nimzowitsch, Aaron DEN ½ ½ 1 ½ 1 1 1
2 Tartakower, Ksawery POL ½ ½ 1 ½ 1 1 1
3 Colle, Edgard BEL ½ ½ ½ ½ ½ ½ 1 4

According to [1], the tournament was financed by the “Staatliche Verwaltung der oldenburgischen Ostseebäder” – whatever that may be –  and directed by Brinckmann. This seems weird, since he also played in it. Or are there two Brinckmanns? In a relatively strong tournament Colle managed to remain unbeaten, drawing against both Tartakower and Nimzowitsch.

Wanted
