Event table notes

Event data
Name: 1st Pest Chess Circle Championship
Place: Pest
Start date: 2 Feb. 1865
End date: Mar. 1865
 
Notes:
Only partial results available. This was a 21-player single-round all-play-all tournament. It is not known how many games were played in the play-off matches, but it is known who beat whom, so I will use a soft 1-0 result in each case, except for Cserenyes-Engel. In the latter case we know Engel won a game, given by Barcza on p.149, so Cserenyes must have won at least two, and I use a result of 2-1. Other players included Henrik Strausz and Orban Hay.
