Honest Chess League 1 (Winter Season)
My Dear Chess Friends!
You know I care about holding honest tournaments where players can be sure that they are competing with a real person, not a machine. Cheating is a big problem in online chess. Each tournament usually has 2-3 participants who use computer assistance. And this is certainly unfair to the other participants.
I decided to solve this problem radically - already last year I have hosted a tournament without cheaters for the first time. And it was successful! ⠀
I am happy to announce the second tournament of my chess project “Honest Chess League"❗️This is an online tournament that only chess players who have never been suspected of cheating can participate in. I will choose the participants myself and send out invitations.
If you have never participated in my tournaments, but have never been suspected of cheating, you also have a chance to get into the tournament. A titled chess player, such as your coach, must vouch for you. It can either be someone from the list of coaches on Chess.com, or a credible chess player with the title of GM or just a titled chess player who is familiar with me.
This way, I am sure that we will be able to hold the tournament in a fair way and certainly without cheaters! So, this time I am holding the 1st League tournament - chess players with a FIDE rating (or national rating or Chess.com) up to 1800 can take part.⠀
League 1 is a Swiss Tournament, 7 rounds. All participants without exception will be checked for cheating.
There will also be prizes for the winners:
1st place - $75
2nd place - $25 and access to the video course "Game Plan"
3rd place - 3 Chess courses devoted to 3 groups of tactical motifs, which together are about 5.5 hours in length.
1) You can sign up after paying a fee of $5 by Paypal or $5.39 on my website
2) Then submit this registration form: https://forms.gle/UKLUufmK9WHf3Z8w7
3) Ask a titled player to contact me and vouch for you

See you on the tournament!
