While some were out playing a lively game of football....
...others were toiling at the board.
It bears remembering there is more to the Tata Steel festival than the Masters and Challengers,
even if they are the show stoppers. Here is arbiter Jan van den Ende in action (at the board).
The photographers loved the opportunity to catch Magnus Carlsen juggling the ball
However, it was the match that mattered (click on image for full size)
Sergey Karjakin races with the ball for the blue team
Magnus counter-attacks as Loek van Wely positions himself to intercept
After the match Carlsen gave some tips to a young simul participant
There was also the traditional Tata Steel Management simul, headed by Challengers player
Jorden van Foreest. Behind the VIPs are the top players, giving some tips, and joking around.
The atmosphere is one of humor and fun
Of course, if you are an IM, then seeing several 2700 players give your simul opponent advice...
... can require some extra thinking.
