Opera Euro Rapid | Champions Chess Tour Day 1 | #Live Commentary

The Opera Euro Rapid is the third event of the Champions Chess Tour. It is a 16-player event and India no.3 GM Vidit Gujrathi will be participating. These are the players of the tournament:

Magnus Carlsen, Ding Liren, Ian Nepomniachtchi, Levon Aronian, Alexander Grischuk, Wesley So, Anish Giri, Maxime Vachier Lagrave, Teimour Radjabov, Lenier Dominguez Perez, Hikaru Nakamura, Jan Krzysztof Duda, Vidit Gujrathi, Daniil Dubov, Sam Shankland and Matthias Bluebaum

The Opera Euro Rapid starts on Saturday February 6th and will conclude on Sunday February 14th which is also on Valentine's day! Once again there’s a 3-day preliminary round-robin stage of rapid chess (15+10), before the top 8 players advance to the knockout stage. The knockout stage is exactly like the the previous events in this tour where each match is played over two days, with four rapid games each day. If the match score is tied 1-1 after the second day, the players will then play two 5+3 blitz games followed by, if needed - Armageddon.

Live commentary by IM Sagar Shah, Amruta Mokal and other guests.
