| Notes: |
| 12-player tournament, all names given in Di Felice. Only play-off results given. Spinrad gives Dufresne-Lange as '3-0?' and Di Felice only says how many wins the winner of each play-off match obtained, so scores are not completely certain. The Chess Player's Chronicle of Jul. 1853 (pp.197-199) has a win by Mayet over Dufresne, but it is not clear whether this was part of the tournament or their subsequent match. |
