Online Chess Tournament "Spring - 2020" (7th round) - LAST ROUND!
My Dear Chess Friends!
Thank you for playing your the games of the 6th round in time! Only one game wasn't played and players got "0".
Only one round left to play and we have a sole leader - Vyacheslav Lebedev, who scored 5.5 of 6. However, in the last round Vyacheslav plays against Dadal and who knows what can happen in this game, because both players are quite strong!
2 & 3 places are now divided by Kristina and Dadal with 5 points of 6. The next is John has 4.5. I was also pleasantly surprised that my student Elliot has 4.5 points too! That's good result. Keep up the good work, Elliot!
These are standings before the last round!
Please, find also the pairings for the 7th 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 17th 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"
