Event data
Name: Hamburg Club Tournament
Place: Hamburg
Start date: 1863
End date: 1863
 
Notes:
Only partial results available. This was a 13-player single-round all-play-all tournament, played at the beginning of 1863. Draws evidently did not count and had to be replayed. We are told that Hartwig and Geier played 4 draws before Hartwig finally won. I record the known total scores of decisive games, but include the 4 draws between Hartwig and Geier separately as a match result, in order to use them for rating. There was a play-off game between Hartwig and Nyegaard, who tied for first, won by Hartwig. We also know that Mosengul was a participant (Schachzeitung Aug. 1863, pp.237-238).
