Steem Blitz Chess Tournament June 30th 2018 .... And the winner is ..... (video commentary by @schamangerbert)
The 38th edition was played with 20 players!
Die 38. Ausgabe wurde mit 20 Spielern gespielt!
Just a few minutes after the exciting game of the World Cup, our weekly chess tournament began, this time with "only" 20 participants. With great pleasure I follow the developments of the individual players, the follow-up articles with the analyzes and the comments. A few days ago, an Indian boy of 12 years and 10 months was named the second youngest grandmaster in chess history. Chess is much more than just a game, it is also an expression of personality and the will to develop, in this sense I thank all players for their participation. Here is the result:
Nur wenige Minuten nach dem spannenden Spiel der Fußball-WM begann unser wöchentliches Schachturnier, diesmal mit "nur" 20 Teilnehmern. Mit großer Freude verfolge ich die Entwicklungen der einzelnen Spieler, die Folgeartikel mit den Analysen und die Kommentare. Vor ein paar Tagen wurde ein indischer Junge mit 12 Jahren und 10 Monaten zum zweitjüngsten Großmeister der Schachgeschichte ernannt. Schach ist viel mehr als nur ein Spiel, es ist auch Ausdruck der Persönlichkeit und dem Willen zur Entwicklung, in diesem Sinne danke ich allen Spielern für ihre Teilnahme. Hier ist das Resultat:
