Baden-Baden (1870) Check out Jan van Reek's stupendous website for the historical context and logistics behind this tournament, player information, the crosstable, and final standings (1). The work put in creates a final result far greater than any I could hope to achieve, and what's more, the general site is a constant source for the information I include in all the historical tournaments I collect anyway. *Ten games decided by forfeit have been excluded from this collection. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 Adolf Anderssen ** 11 00 1½ 11 1½ 10 10 11 11.0 3000 francs 2 Wilhelm Steinitz 00 ** 11 0½ 11 11 11 ½1 ½0 10.5 600 francs 3 Gustav Richard Neumann 11 00 ** 1½ 01 01 11 0½ 11 10.0 200 francs 4 Joseph Henry Blackburne 0½ 1½ 0½ ** 10 11 1½ ½½ 11 10.0 200 francs 5 Louis Paulsen 00 00 10 01 ** 10 1½ 1½ ½1 7.5 6 Cecil De Vere 0½ 00 10 00 01 ** 01 ++ 01 6.5 7 Simon Winawer 01 00 00 0½ 0½ 10 ** 1½ 11 6.5 8 Samuel Rosenthal 01 ½0 1½ ½½ 0½ -- 0½ ** -- 5.0 9 Johannes von Minckwitz 00 ½1 00 00 ½0 10 00 ++ ** 5.0 10 Adolf Stern ½0 10 "+" and "-" represent wins and losses by forfeit.
