Event table notes

Event data
Name: Grand Tournoi de la Régence
Place: Paris
Start date: 12 Dec. 1869
End date: Feb. 1870
 
Notes:
64-player handicap knockout tournament, but after the first round, the tournament became a double one, the 32 winners competing for 2 prizes and the 32 losers in the first round competing for another 2 prizes (so after round 1, there were 2 separate 32-player knockout tournaments, effectively). The only results given are that Czarnowski and Sivinski (both in the 1st class) came first and second in the main half of the tournament, and Durantel (1st class) and Micheletz (4th class) came first and second in the second half of the tournament. Thus, Czarnowski must have beaten Sivinski in the last round, and Durantel must have beaten Micheletz, but neither number of games nor scores are given. I assume 1-0 in each case.
