About this Event
The chess tournament will start at 10 AM and conclude at 5 PM with a lunch break of one hour (12:30 AM - 1:30 PM). The tournament will be held in the beautiful Kapittelzaal in the Saint Peter's Abbey (Sint-Pietersabdij) in Ghent.
The players will be split up into 2 categories according to strength:
- Category A is for players with less than 1500 elo (online or fide).
- Category B is for players with an elo between 1500 and 2000 (online or fide).
Both categories will play 7 rounds with a 10 minutes + 3 secondes time control.
The first three players in each category will be awarded at the award ceremony. The buchholz system will be used as a tie-breaking system. In addition, and similar to our previous tournament, prizes will be giving away through lottery during the rounds.
To participate in the tournament, you will need to register in advance by buying a ticket from this page.
