Champion
Boris Verlinsky

The 1929 USSR Chess Championship was the 6th edition of USSR Chess Championship. Held from 2–20 September in Odessa. The tournament was won by Boris Verlinsky. The event was held outside Moscow and Leningrad for the first time. 36 players competed in four quarterfinal sections, with the top three in each advancing into two six-player semifinals. The top two from each semifinals were then to play a double round final to determine the champion (but due to the withdrawal of one of the finalists, the final tournament had only three players).[1][2]
