Jun-14-08  whiteshark: F. Lustig, born in 1900
http://www.chesslive.de/scripts/ser...

Seems active only from 1927-1930
What happened to him ?

Jun-14-08  Calli: Last tournament that I see him listed is the 7th Kautsky played 1930-1931. Flohr 1st , Lustig was 5th. In the crosstable, he is designated as "Fr. Lustig". Fr is usually an abbreviation for some form of Frank, Francis, Frantisek etc.

Don't always believe the Chessbase birthdays. They often estimate the ones that they don't know. These are always years like 1880, 1890, 1900, 1910 etc

Jun-15-08  whiteshark: Thanks <Calli>. I'll be more cautious prospectively.
Nov-27-12  Morphischer: Wondering if his first name is Fritz, he has a game F Fric vs F Lustig, 1930 that he plays the Fritz gambit and Calli mentioned his name being abbreviated as Fr.
Aug-19-14  Paarhufer: A player named Lustig played at top boards in team competitions in Prague at least in 1935 and 1938.
Feb-22-17  JimNorCal: Is "Fr" sometimes an abbreviation for Father/Friar, a Catholic priest?

Thanks to <mifralu>, we now have two Franz Lustig games from the <1927-1928 Kautsky Memorial Tournament> in Prague: http://www.edochess.ca/tournaments/...

Flohr vs F Lustig, 1928

F Lustig vs Hromadka, 1928

===

In this tournament Lustig finished clear 2nd with 9.5/12, one point behind the winner Karel Hromadka , ahead of Salomon Flohr , Karel Opocensky and 8 others.

May-19-22  Retireborn: <Jess>, mifralu's link certainly puts Lustig v Hromadka in the 1927/8 4th Kautsky.

Does it do the same for the Flohr v Lustig QGD game? According to Megabase (and CG) it was played in the 1928/9 5th Kautsky.

Unfortunately Adams' book is no help with such issues.

However, you will note that <Flohr> played <Lustig> in both events eh?

<Does it do the same for the Flohr v Lustig QGD game? According to Megabase (and CG) it was played in the 1928/9 5th Kautsky.>

Megabase is far from the best source.
Sadly, neither is chessgames.com.

As in the vast majority of cases, whoever uploaded Flohr vs F Lustig, 1928 here could not be bothered to include a source tag.

Edo chess:

4th Kautsky 1927/1928 http://www.edochess.ca/tournaments/...

5th Kautsky 1928/1929 http://www.edochess.ca/tournaments/...

Anyways I changed F Lustig vs Hromadka, 1928 to the proper event now.
