Chess Tournament
A board, a clock, and games that wrap up in minutes at a fast time control. Here's how to organize a chess tournament without a paper bracket.
Why chess works well as a tournament
A board, a clock, and games that wrap up in minutes at a fast time control. A good tournament fits on a handful of stations for 16 to 32 entrants in a single day, thanks to a pool stage followed by a knockout bracket.
