Name: Club Argentino Championship - First Category
Place: Buenos Aires
Start date: Oct. 1912
End date: Oct. 1912
 
Notes:
Morgado's scores total to 29.5 instead of 30, as it should be for a six-player double-round all-play-all tournament. I will guess that Gelly's score was 2.5 instead of 2, as given by Morgado. There was a play-off mini-tournament for first place, but Morgado's description is not clear. He says it was to be a triple-round tournament, that Illa scored 6, leaving Villegas with 5, and that Nollman scored nothing, having retired beforehand. I do not attempt to reconstruct the play-off.
