  • Format: Single round-robin (each player faces all others once).
  • Elimination: The top 8 players advance to the knockout stage.
  • Placement match: The player ranked 9th picks among players ranked 11th or 12th as his opponent. Players contest a single-elimination bracket, with the winner of each match playing for 9th and 10th places and the loser of each match tying for 11th and 12th

Schedule:

  • Monday: 6 rounds played.
  • Tuesday: 5 rounds played.

Stage 2: Knockout (classical time control)

  • Time control: 90 minutes + 30-second increments per move.
  • Format: Single-elimination bracket.
  • Players ranked 1st through 4th in the round-robin can, in order, pick among players ranked from 5th through 8th as their opponent in the knockout.

Schedule:

  • Quarterfinals: Wednesday and Thursday (one classical game per day).
  • Semifinals: Friday and Saturday (one classical game per day).
  • Finals: Sunday and Monday (one classical game per day).

Tiebreak system in the knockout stage

  • If still tied, two blitz games (5+2 time control).
  • If still tied, a bidding Armageddon game:
    • Base time: 5 minutes.
    • Players bid for the amount of time they are willing to play with as Black (who has draw odds).

60m English A solid scandinavian surprise

On this 60 mins video we are going to concentrate on a simple, very solid idea in the main line Scandinavian, which even Magnus Carlsen has used to win games. Black focusses on making his life easy in the opening and forces White to work very hard to get advantage – but it is doubtful if White can get an advantage. Club players are always on the lookout for effective, time-saving solutions and here we have just that. Accompany FIDE Senior Trainer and IM Andrew Martin on this 60 mins video. You can learn a new opening system in 60 mins and start to play it with confidence on the very same day!
