Steem Blitz Chess960 Tournament September 29 ... And the winner is ... (video commentary by @schamangerbert)

in #chess6 years ago

The 51th edition was played with 15 players!

Even in the King's Gambit ... White is no longer trying to attack at all costs. He has had to adapt his approach and look for moves with a solid positional foundation.
Neil McDonald (1998)

Die 51. Ausgabe wurde mit 15 Spielern gespielt!

Sogar im Königs Gambit ... versucht Weiss nicht mehr um jeden Preis anzugreifen. Er muss seine Herangehensweise anpassen und nach Zügen mit solider Position suchen.
Neil McDonald (1998)

Thanks for the interesting tourney!
This is not a standard chess or Chess960 but something to try:
https://steemit.com/gaming/@anadello/test-your-skill

I find it very difficult to play with this 960 variant; since it changes position at the beginning and I can not adapt to this style of play.

However I will keep trying

Very funny your reaction in the first five games haha

An unsolved chess problem is still waiting, want to try? :)
