Dear Chessfriends,

in round 9 we were 14 players (15, but @ambarvegas (Milagritsos) didn´t play a game) and quite a strong field with 5 players >2000. @sawko (sawkito) who joined newly, was (like in the Queen´s Gambit tournament the day before) a class on his own. He berserked all his games and had at the end twice as much points as the second, @kreur. Congratulations, also to @kreur´s best result so far! Third was - very close - @zacherybinx (sirtetris), followed by another new (and strong!) player, @vjap55. @jaki01 was left with the 5th place only, the worst so far for him. The remaining tournament points went to @pereu4ivatel (drakOnb), @rafaelaquino (ajedrezclub2t) and @yazp (zulukill). My play was a complete disaster, but I also had bad luck with the pairing. Thanks to both I ended up as ninth - first time in Hivechess that I didn´t score. At least it can´t get worse.

The games of this round can be found here, in case you want to replay some of them.

from m8loss and jonbellionfan I don´t have a Hive name and thus they are not counted yet

The rules you can look up in the announcement post.

No changes in the top places anymore, the distances are far too high which lets me think about other countings/formats in the future, but @zacherybinx (sirtetris) again jumped up 2 ranks and could grab the 4th place from @pereu4ivatel (drakOnb). The two new players @sawko and @vjap55 (both are from Venezuela) could jump due to their good results directly into the mid field. I hope you can join in the next rounds as well!

See you next week for the final showdown of season 3! It will be as usual a double round - only the strongest will survive!

See you there and until then - keep practicing!!
