The Magnus Carlsen Invitational runs from April 18 to May 3. The unprecedented event is an eight-player round robin followed by a knockout decider among the top four players in the standings. Each match-up will include four rapid games (15'+10"), and in case of a tie an Armageddon game (5 v 4 minutes) will be the decider. The action kicks off daily at 14:00 UTC (16:00 CEST, 10:00 EST).
The tournament involves two stages. First a round-robin and then a knockout among the top four players in the standings.
During the round-robin, each match-up will include four rapid games (15 minutes plus 10-second increments), and in case of a tie an Armageddon game (5 v 4 minutes) will be the decider. If a players gets the victory without needing the sudden-death tiebreaker, he will get 3 points, while a win in the playoff will give the winner 2 points and the loser 1 point.
In the semi-finals and the final, the same four-game rapid format will be employed, except that in case of a tie the contenders will play two sets of blitz games (5 minutes plus 3-second increments) before going to Armageddon. The tie can be broken in the first set of blitz encounters.
Today I wanted to show you a great game between Magnus Carlsen against Anish Giri in a dynamic Grunfeld defense game
