| This is a soft result. Walker says that an unnamed correspondent recently played both La Bourdonnais and Witholm, both at Rook odds and within a few weeks of each other. The correspondent lost a 'large marjority' of 53 games against Witholm, but could win the majority against 'the best French players'. Since La Bourdonnais is explicitly mentioned before, I assume a soft result here of +2-1=0 for the unnamed correspondent, to reflect the statement that he won the majority, but without too many games, so as not to give the result too much weight, since it not stated in very precise terms. |
