Four top grandmasters — Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru Nakamura, Viswanathan Anand and Bassem Amin — test the new Casablanca Chess Variant, as they will start their rapid games from carefully selected positions derived from historical games.
Master Class Vol.8 - Magnus Carlsen 2nd Edition
Let our authors show you how Carlsen tailored his openings to be able to outplay his opponents strategically in the middlegame or to obtain an enduring advantage into the endgame.
Each round will be preceded by a 15-minute segment dedicated to the selection of the position, either with a guest or via online polls. At the beginning of each round, the players will receive the scoresheets of the chosen position. They will have two minutes to play through the historical game on the board up to the position from which their game will commence. Subsequently, the arbiter will initiate the clocks.
The time control will be 15 minutes with a 10-second increment. No draw offers will be permitted.
