Online Chess Tournament "Spring - 2020" (6th round)
My Dear Chess Friends!
News #1.
Thank you for playing your the games of the 5th round in time! However, 2 games were not played and players got "0". Moritz and Arlan didn't contact me about this game and were excluded from the 6th round pairings. Guys, if you want to get back to the tournament, let me know!
News #2.
Anusha was disqualified because cheating was detected in some of her games. That's why I changed the results of all her games, and now everyone, who played against her, got +1 point (to compensate a loss).
News #3.
Now we have 4 leaders who scored 4.5 of 5. They are: Kristina, Vyacheslav, John & Dadal. That's why 2 next rounds decide who will be the champion 
Standings after Round 5.
Please, find also the pairings for the 6th round. Every Monday I publish new pairings in our group on Chess.com. Don't forget to visit it at least weekly.
During this week (until 10th of May) your task is to negotiate with your opponent, schedule the game and play it on lichess.org or chess.com
Time control: 45'+30"
Please, send the link to this game to my e-mail: tricksofchess@gmail.com
IMPORTANT! Last day to play the game of the 6th round is Sunday 10th May. Any games that are not played until Monday (11th of May) will be cancelled and both players get "0".
