Venezuelan Chess Championship

In the second match, Rafael Ruíz drew with Carlos Perret Gentil (+7 =6 –7) in 1894.

Carlos Perret Gentil won the Venezuelan Championship in 1907, and defended the title until 1936, when he died.

The first national championship organized by Federación Venezolana de Ajedrez (FVA) was held in 1938.

Jaime Bograd (from Romania) won, ahead of Sady Loynaz Páez (from Venezuela), but the second one became a national Venezuelan Champion.

Sady Loynaz died in 1950, and Federación Venezolana de Ajedrez had organized two separate tournaments (Campeonato Nacional and Campeonato de Extranjeros for foreigners who resided in Venezuela) in Caracas in December 1950.
