Event table notes

Event data
Name: Saint Louis Chess, Checker and Whist Club Handicap
Place: Saint Louis
Start date: 24 Sep. 1888
End date: 10 Jan. 1889
 
Notes:
Reis withdrew after playing three games, a draw and loss against Love and a loss to Robbins. Different odds were used in alternate games between the same players, at least for some differences between odds classes. In order to coerce my rating program to apply the right odds, I have set up more classes.
