🍀 Karlsbad 1911
🍀 20 August to 24 September
♻️ CHAMPION: Richard Teichmann | 18/25 (+13 -2 =10)
🔰 The Carlsbad 1911 chess tournament was one of four well-known international chess tournaments held in the spa city of Carlsbad (Bohemia, then Austria-Hungary Empire). The other tournament years were 1907, 1923 and 1929.
🔰 The opening ceremony was held at the imperial bath hotel Kurhaus (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 20 August to 24 September 1911. At the end Richard Teichmann was the winner.
🔰 Among the players were established masters such as Akiba Rubinstein, Carl Schlechter, and Frank James Marshall, as well as younger stars such as Alexander Alekhine, Aron Nimzowitsch, and George Rotlewi. As the tournament went on and the grueling schedule of games took its toll on the players, the expected names emerged as leaders with one noticeable addition: Richard Teichmann! From Teichmann's return to international play in 1902 (after having lost the use of his right eye to an infection) to 1910 he had drawn many games due to poor health, which earned him so many 5th place prizes that he was known as "Richard the Fifth." In 1911, however, Teichmann received a small inheritance from his mother that provided him more leisure time to focus during ongoing tournaments without having to work at the same time. This tournament proved to be Teichmann's greatest international achievement. He earned clear first against the massive field, including victories against shared seconds Rubinstein and Schlechter and fourth place Rotlewi.

A complex ending. Black has a dangerous breakthrough with c3, and the white king is too far away from the queenside.
55.Nf4+??
The Armenian GM could not find a way to obtain a draw.
