InfinityChess Prize Tour on Sunday 12th of June

This is our firstprize tour with 12 predefined opening positionsat move 1.

1st Prize 500 USD (- 10% for InfinityChess)2nd Prize 200 USD (- 10% for InfinityChess)

It's opento players who participated in at least 2WBCET test tours before and who played correct (=allowed) opening moves and who did not forfeit games.

Our Swiss System cannot guarantee a balancednumber of White's and Black's to everyone in case of an even number of games.(For example: If 12 rounds, some players might have 7 White's, others only 5.) That's why we choose an uneven number of rounds: 13. The player with one less White's (6 instead of 7) gets a tiebreak bonus prior to Buchholz and Sonneborn Berger.

These are the 1st moves allowed by White & Black:

1.e4 d5 1.e4 a6 1.e4 Nf6
1.d4 g6 1.d4 Nc6 1.d4 c5
1.c4 Nc6 1.c4 d5 1.c4 b6
1.Nf3 b6 1.Nf3 f5 1.Nf3 h6
