history
August Tiedtke set Otto Unshelm's previous record of four victories in a row. As early as 1947, he had set the record, also held by Unshelm, of six overall titles. That year he won his eighth three-cushion title. This should not change until 1954, only then would he be defeated by the title holder from 1939, Ernst Rudolph . As so often before, Tiedtke won without losing power. All the best performances were also on his account, even if he had to share that of the top series (HS) of seven with the fifth-placed Willy Pesch. Siegfried Spielmann was able to make up for his mediocre performance from the previous year and became runner-up.
