This is a "No Vacation" tournament!
RUBICON OPEN – I
In this tournament series rather rarely practised openings are trained, here the starting position possibly leading to the Réti Gambit; for the sake of tournament speed you should have a decent speed track record:
- 60 Participants are divided into groups of 4.
- The best proceeds to the next round.
- presumably three rounds
- one day time per move
- have fun!
