A new participation record was reached this Sunday in the Chess Brothers League! With 40 contenders the 6th round took place, and what a way to start the last third of the league! We are very pleased with the large number of players. We extend our most sincere words of gratitude to the entire chess community that little by little has been integrating this activity and that today we see materialized all the effort and dedication present in each round, in each game, in each move.
In this opportunity we played a 7 round Swiss tournament with blitz mode 3+2, format and time control that were chosen in the weekly poll carried out via Dpoll.
As an interesting fact, the number of rounds in Swiss tournaments is a participation-based factor, with the square of the number of rounds being the maximum number of participants allowed. As we explained in another post, 7 rounds allow up to a maximum of 49 players. Our tournaments are usually around 20, 30 contenders, but seeing this large audience today, we can start considering longer tournaments, 9 rounds for example.
