Carlsbad (Karlsbad, Karlovy Vary) is known in the whole chess world thanks to four international tournaments, held in 1907, 1911, 1923 and 1929.
The second event was conducted in the health resort of Carlsbad (Bohemia, then Austria-Hungary Empire). The opening ceremony was held in the Kurhaus (the magnificent Kaiserbad) on 20 August 1911. Twenty-six chess masters were invited to participate in the enormous round-robin tournament (325 games!). Of the top players in the world then only two were missing from the tournament: Emanuel Lasker and José Raúl Capablanca. The participants played from 20th of August to 24th of September 1911. At the end Richard Teichmann was the winner. |
