The 13th edition was completed with fantastic 18 players
"As one by one I mowed them down, my superiority soon became apparent.
Jose Capablanca"
Die 13. Ausgabe wurde mit fantastischen 18 Spielern absolviert
"Als ich einen nach dem anderen niedermähte, wurde meine Überlegenheit bald deutlich.
Jose Capablanca"
With 18 players the 2nd season started with a record participation. Since I'm still living in summer time I messed up the start time and the tournament started exactly at 22.00 o'clock German time, which was 21 GMT. But the participants took it easy and used it for training. Here is the result:
Mit 18 Spielern startete die 2. Saison mit einer Rekordbeteiligung. Da ich noch immer in der Sommerzeit lebe habe ich die Startzeit durcheinander gebracht und das Turnier startete exakt um 22.00 Uhr deutscher Zeit, was aber 21 GMT war. Die Teilnehmer haben dies aber locker genommen und zum Training benutzt. Hier ist das Resultat:

I have added it in the post. Thanks!
Hola amigo gracias por el torneo me gustó mucho son muy buenos jugadores los felicito soy @hendeantoima. En el juego era Hende1
Wow, It was tough today, my opponents average was 2023, never happened last year. The level went up dramatically!
IM Sparklehorse is @wpaschall
He has singed up to steemit but has to wait for confirmation.
Great to have you on the boards!!!!
Complacido de haber participado, esperando el próximo torneo con todas las ganas ya de participar. Saludos hermano. Buenísimo.
¡Gracias y nos vemos la próxima vez! (automatic translation)
Dang @schamangerbert at 6min 53sec mark you had his knight after Ke7. Remember Knights on the rim are grim...only 4 move options Rook was covering three of them. Also, take note of clock more often...check to see where your opponent is at and if you're up like you were here take the 30 secs to minute to find a solid concrete plan. I was routing for you to make the comback lol
Excellent tournament friend @schamangerbert, every day we are more who share this beautiful sport every Saturday .. A hug ..
Another fun tournament. 18 players with an IM! Next week, we will have many more players and maybe Magnus Carlsen at this pace 😜
hahahaha
I heard you cu..e when you made a bad move
yeah you did mess it but cheer up!
thanks for the video that's cool!
edit : multitasking while playing chess? no good combi! :D
Hast du den Film "Bauernopfer" gesehn? Ist von Bobby Fischer die Lebensgeschichte. Kann ich nur empfehlen :-)
