Zach is playing black against a 1400 in Round 1. Easy Dub I predict!
No stream, I'm afraid.

Can't find any published results for this tournament which is very frustrating. Chess is so bad at presenting itself.
So far as I can make out Zach won his first game against the 1400 and then drew round 2 against a 2300 FM. Unfortunately he needed to win to make it onto one of the top boards. Only the top 12 or 14 boards are shown live on chess.com, so no chance of following today's game live either.
Round 3 is versus a Spanish 1500 player, so I expect another win today. 2.5 points may get him on to one of those top boards tomorrow playing another titled player. We'll see.

A little bird on youtube tells me that Zach won Round 3 AND Round 4 against a 2100 rated player, giving him 3.5/4 and a game against an IM to be played on board 10 today, which will be shown live here https://www.chess.com/events/2024-ciudad-de-sevilla/games
Make sure to list the games for Round 5 and you should then be able to see the live board at 17:30 Spanish time (or a little later if there is a delay - but so far they seem to have been broadcasting the top 14 boards absolutely live).
I don't know where the guy is getting his info, but I've asked him so if it is an online source I've missed and he passes it on I'll post it here so others can also see the source.

Zach drew the 2300 IM today, after tenacious defence. So 4/5, which is fantastic.
Every chance of him being on one of the top boards again tomorrow for Round 6 and another titled opponent I imagine.
Let's GO!

Here's where the tourney matchups are being posted + the results https://info64.org/xlix-abierto-internacional-ciudad-de-sevilla/1
Next up is a 2400 GM
So, I could be wrong, but it looks like Zach may be starting a new tournament in Spain tomorrow. He's certainly registered in it.

Start time is 5-30pm Spanish time.
If there's a stream I'll see you all on Twitch, if not maybe chat in the chess.com game coverage
I'll post here when I've figured out what is happening.
