1° Three men mini tournament for remaining interzonal spot: Reshevsky 2½; Evans 1½; Addison 1. Reshevsky qualified
2° Fischer subsequently withdrew and was replaced by Evans (note that the play-off above was not completed, as only one ticket was at stake at the time;
Addison could have well taken second spot, had he beaten Reshevsky in his last game).
3° For some reason Bisguier decided to play a match v Benko where his interzonal spot was at stake (possibly due to financial reasons). Play-off for interzonal ticket: Benko-Bisguier 4½—1½.
4° Qualified to the interzonal from US pool: Reshevsky, Evans, Benko.
